Overall a good meal. The appetizer and wedge salad were both very good. The main course of prime rib and the green beans were tasty, crispy and fresh. The carrot cake dessert was underwhelming. Not much carrot at all in the batter, the cake seemed like a box cake. Not very good value.

We were hoping for something more upscale but food was quite typical in quality and not particularly inspired. The seating leaves something to be desired, the best spots seem to be booths along the side. We were seated right near main waitstaff route to the kitchen, although we booked nearly two months in advance.
