We had a great meal here for Father's Day. We were promptly seated. Cocktails were ordered. Very tasty indeed. The appetizer and all of the entrees were very good! Delicious dessert too. We will be back for sure.

Always a great dining experience. I had the steak tips, my husband the eggplant neapolitano. Big portions , perfectly done. Our server was very attentive. I'd give it a 10/10.

Went to 3 for Father's Day. The oysters were FANTASTIC...very cold and fresh! The bottle of wine that we split was also very tasty. Our server was professional and friendly but not overbearing. My husband had the steak special and pave potatoes which were delicious. An overall great experience!

The food was excellent from apps to main course. Ordered from the specials and was rewarded with a fantastic sesame crusted tuna along with the braised short rib that melt in your mouth.

The eggplant my husband ordered was just short of awful. My filet was good—3 does have excellent filet. Waitress was a bit inattentive. Noise level, as usual on the weekend, was ear-splitting. We prefer the outside if possible at 3. Overall still a great dining spot but this wasn’t one of our better dining experiences.
