   Superb food&service from start to finish. Seafood tower for 2 was as fresh as it can be, except the oysters are not in season. Dry-aged bone-in Kansas City Sirloin 16oz ($75 plain)was fantastic, but every single sides add$.

   I was dining alone and the service was outstanding. They took very good care of me and made excellent recommendations. Very knowledgeable and helpful on food and wine choices. I had the 35-day aged Kansas City and it was cooked to perfection.

   Although this steakhouse is touted as one of the best I felt it left a lot to be desired. Service was slow. Our wait-server was very nice but he kept disappearing so it was hard to get special requests taken care. My dad had a steak with lobster tail. Lobster was not in shell and was like a small lump of rubbery stuff on the plate. Chef said that’s the way it’s supposed to be. Had to send my steak back and they still didn’t get it right. Overall no value for the money. Food not exceptional at all. I would never recommend this place.

We had a champagne toast and complimentary dessert! Would definitely go back and recommend this restaurant to all my friends and family.

    Went for my son’s 13th birthday. Quality of service was impeccable! Ambience and food presentation was excellent, but the quality of food we ordered such as the salmon, prime rib, tomahawk & filet mignon did not meet our expectations. But all that aside, we had a wonderful time. Thank you!

    A hidden gem in Monterey Park if you love a good steak. Pricey but sometimes you just want a good steak and this place knows how to do that. The service is outstanding, great wine recommendations and pairings.

    Planned to celebrate a special occasion with our group and looking forward to EST but really disappointed. They didn’t seat us until 30 minutes after scheduled reservation even though our table was available. The service was extremely slow, and we had to track down our waiter multiple times. The steaks were excellent for half our party and cold and under cooked for remaining. They also forgot or brought late more than a couple of items we ordered.

    Service was awful. Had to ask for bread (2x). Everything came out slow ... including dessert, which we ended up waiting for SO LONG that we cancelled, and called it a night. Food was tasty, though more expensive than other steakhouses I've been too (Morton's, Ruth's Chris, Flemings, Peter Luger's) with much smaller portions. It's in a Sheraton hotel, so maybe they're able to stay alive with that customer base, but if there was another steakhouse in the area, they'd NEVER last.

    I enjoyed most of the food. The steak was cooked perfectly, the mashed potatoes were the best of my life, the waiter was kind and offered my friend a free sample of one of their whiskies. I tried an enhancement as well and that was probably the most disappointing dish out of everything we ordered. Furthermore, upon arrival, we were informed that the restaurant’s payment system was down and we could only pay via room charge or cash. We informed them that we were not staying at the hotel and so my friend had to drive about a mile out to his bank to withdraw cash and pay for the meal. Typically, for making a guest go out of their way for the restaurant, one would think the restaurant would either offer a free side dish or comp something we ordered. Maybe even a discounted meal. However, there was nothing offered in return for this inconvenience and one of my other friends and I were forced to sit around at the end of our meal, waiting for our friend to get back from the ATM while the waiter casually passed by our table to see if we were ready to pay yet. I will say he did apologize for the inconvenience, however, considering this was a $450 meal, one would think there would be more than just an apology.

    Celebrated with cousin on her wedding anniversary. Bill came out to about $600+ for 6 adults. Asked for medium on the steaks but all came out pretty bloody. They had pre-cut the steaks for us prior to serving so the chef should’ve been able to see how raw it was. Did not bother sending it back. Not sure if we’d go back again. Service was excellent but food was just mediocre.

    Waitress did not inform us about the $50 corkage fee. We opened 3 bottles of wine valued at $35 each. If we had been told how much the corkage was we would not have opened them. The steak was good, but nothing special. The service was sub par for a restaurant at this price point. You would expect more attentive services and certainly someone telling you the price of corkage. For this price I would rather spend my money in Pasadena at other steakhouses.

    The dinner was absolutely horrible. I brought my friends here for my birthday which I completely regret. I had a previous experience here which was great but today was just horrible. The Food - the meat quality was good as always but it was not cooked properly. We asked for the meat to be medium and all $500 worth of meat that came out was cooked rare... The Service - the servers were not attending to our table nearly as much as they should in comparison to a regular dine in restaurant. The fact that this is an expensive steakhouse, it makes it 10 times worse. I get more water refills and attentiveness at a local Norms or Denny’s The Speed - The food took forever to come out! We were only 1 of 2 other tables when we arrived but our food arrived after a lot of tables that sat after us. For an upscale restaurant like this, I was extremely disappointed and it made for a horrible birthday experience because they even completely forgot it was my birthday! Never again!

    Both my employee and myself got the salmon and the lobster bisque, and we both got sick. The taste and the service was great. I was traveling and had not eaten since early that day. My employee had not eaten at all that day, and we instantly got sick. Even though your people and the service they provided were outstanding, I would have to say no to a recommendation!

    Our server Ryan is the best! Nice ambiance and good location. We had the roast for the table which is good for 4 people and the serving is just enough. The crispy brussel sprouts is amazing! They even gave us a little something (creme brulee w/ candle) for my birthday. Will definitely come back.

    First time to order from the menu. On the previous visit, we utilized the dineLA menu. Enjoyed the brussels sprouts and the ahi tartare. Our steak of choice was the Tomahawk, and it was perfect for two people. We even had a few slices to take home. Our server was attentive and really pleasant to communicate with.
