    We enjoyed the Korean bbq short ribs for an appetizer. For our meal the bone in ribeye was huge and cooked to our liking. We also got the Mac n cheese, which was delicious and my husband got the baked potatoes which came loaded with bacon, sour cream and cheese. He said the bacon they used was so good that it made it the best baked potatoe he’s ever had. Finished with the black cherry ricotta cheesecake, topped with vanilla ice cream. He also said one of the best desserts!

    Server was great! Offered to replace my steak as it was rare when I asked for medium rare. But you are a steakhouse. How do you serve a medium rare steak raw? Who is checking the plates before they go out to the tables? To me, it’s a complete failure by the whole kitchen. Other steaks on the table were fine. Oysters were not the freshest. Wedge and scalloped potatoes were awesome.

    We have reserve ration and the host was diligent with her guests and sat us right on time. We waited for nothing. We have water and cocktails right way. Ambience was amazing, even being near all the action on the casino floor. We heard nothing. Appetizers were great. I had crispy pork belly, chiefs kiss delicious. The crab was good too. Our entrees were monstrous and cooked to perfect. I could have use a little more salt on my steaks cook but it was good. The sides are huge so please share. We went for indulgence and ordered loaded baked potato and the Mac n cheese. We had absolutely no room for dessert but we ordered it to go. The hazelnut chocolate beignets hot and coke were DELICIOUS. My husband is a fan of carrot cake and it was a true rustic carrot cake and the perfect cape to a late night at the casino. I’d come back again. Great staff. Great food.

    Horrible service.. we were there for over an hour and a half till we got our main meal. My filet mignon was over cooked, I left my entire meat. Our oysters we ordered four. One of them had a hair. One of our plates was the surf and turf was cooked perfect. One of our other plates was an 11 oz filet mignon was under cooked, server took it back to cook it longer. Our bill was $800, for horrible service. Our dinner reservation was at 6:15, we left dinner at 8:20. The restaurant was not packed for us to get our dinner so late.

    The food just never really is that great there. I came maybe three years ago for the first time and if it was very good, but I think there was a different chef at the time I have tried multiple things since then and I just don’t really care for the food it does not taste good it does not taste like good quality most the time it taste, undercooked, and just no flavor

    We were told there would be 2 people waiting on us but only one server came around. We saw numerous people that had came in after us being served their meals way before us. We finally had to ask someone to get our server for us. This was the worst service we have had at the restaurant. It’s like the servers we’re expecting the other to take care of us.

    We had gotten stuck in traffic and showed up 30 minutes late and were panicking! The staff was so amazing, they said no problem we’re just happy you can join us and sat us right away! Lance was out server and how AMAZING was he! Recommended perfect wine pairing with our steaks, and sides that were probably the best au gratin potatoes I have ever tasted!! It was my boyfriends birthday and they made him feel so special! We also had to rush our dinner to get to our show, and no problem. The food came out fast, exactly as ordered and so delicious! All 6 of us agreed we will be back when there’s not an event to get to so we can sit and enjoy the amazing ambience, food, and incredible staff!!

    From the moment my husband and I walked up to the Seating Host to the end of walking out, we were treated with respect and as valued clients. I appreciate the attention everyone gave to us. It was fun watching the chefs and sous chefs firing the steaks over the grills. The wait staff were attentive enough to make sure my husband and I did not go without and thoughtful enough to not intrude when we were deep in conversation or enjoying our meal. It was a very good experience.
