    It has been twice that we have ordered the most expensive steaks on the menu and twice, they have been cooked well under. It is unfortunate that our Tomahawk steak back in November and our ribeye this weekend at their brunch, was undercooked/raw to the doneness ordered. For being a steakhouse and twice, the steaks are not cooked properly, it says a lot about the chef’s experience and their skewed interpretation of what medium is. It was also a bit grisly. Sadly, the presentation upon serving their steak is such that they slice it for you; how do you not see that it is pretty raw and NOT medium? The time we ordered their most expensive Tomahawk; we asked that it be refired—-well, that kills the vibe, the presentation and it delayed our opportunity to indulge in our dinner. That was a Saturday, Nov16. This time, it was Sunday brunch involved refire-not sure if the top chefs are off these days? Nonetheless, we asked to talk with the manager this time; pretty much dismissed it as… “our chefs are retraining, we are busting out a chart for doneness but pretty much, every chef has their own interpretation of that,…” OK….weird. Any cook or professional chef for or grill master for that matter, knows that the doneness can be seen and felt simply by touching the steak as for medium,…should feel like the plumpness of that soft spot atop your hand when you hold a fist. Regardless, in that sitting, the couple behind us had to also speak to the manager about their crappy grisly steak. It would also be great if the business could be a little less greedy and absorb the 3% on credit card charges…c’mon!! Even Punjabi Tandoori across the street in their hole in the wall and amazing food doesn’t do a surcharge to their customers?!! The two alcoholic drinks that profit you lots should make you absorb that fee. Who the hell anticipates exactly what they will spend and or bring $200+ cash? Lastly, manager says… “oh…had I known about your steak, I would have given a discount.”

    Food and drinks were great, so was service. Parking is a nightmare. The brunch was so good but the mariachi band is too loud.

    Order the oysters, Rockefeller, very disappointed. The oysters didn’t have enough cheese they could’ve cooked them longer. The oysters tasted too fishy and weren’t cleaned out properly. Fried red snapper was really good on their dinner menu. My husband ordered the fillet he liked it. My son ordered the Dino short rib and wasn’t a fan. I did like the ambience of the restaurant. Their service needs to be a little bit more attentive. It was very hot on Father’s Day. We were given room temperature water, and then they never came back to refill it until we were almost leaving. The side order of broccolini was very small. I would love to go back and try their brunch. I heard it’s really good. I’m just worried about being disappointed.

    We visited En Familia to celebrate our dear friend’s incredible accomplishment of earning her Master’s degree. Since she’s a true foodie, we went all out and ordered the tomahawk steak along with four sides to share between the four of us—and it did not disappoint. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed and received exceptional service throughout the evening. Valerie, our server, was attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed without ever being intrusive. The drinks were expertly crafted and absolutely delicious, perfectly complementing our meal. Overall, it was a wonderful experience with great food, fantastic service, and a celebratory atmosphere that made the night feel extra special. We’ll definitely be back!
