    We dined right after a Padres game so a bit more hectic than usual Very attentive service. The meats and chicken were very good although a couple of the meat offerings were a tad fatty or chewy…..Would have given five stars except for this. Salad bar is great. Excellent capirhinia (sp?) drink.

    The service was great, the staff very friendly, attentive and accommodating. The meat quality wasn’t the best, the meat has a bit of a smell, the fillet mignon was offered once for a small piece for both of us and has a weird taste. No complimentary dessert was offered for the birthday person, first time we experienced this! Summery the staff deserves 5 stars, food less than average and value for the price that paid for us wasn’t worth it!

    Dominic, thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. We're pleased to hear our team made a positive impression with their friendly and attentive service. However, we're concerned about your comments regarding the cuts and lack of birthday acknowledgment. We invite you to reach out via our website contact form so we can address your concerns.

    Sinful. Absolutely, blissful. The meat was tender and full of flavor. We sat and chewed in an altered state. Nirvana. The bacon was unbelievably crisp and had a slight sweetness. The accompanying side dishes were good. Service was exceptional and with a smile.
