The steaks are just different out of the US. We had four in our party. Three ordered ribeyes, one ordered the NY strip. The meat tasted like they were frozen. I was with my sons and nephew. Most young men in their early 20’s don’t exactly have refined palates so I don’t think they could tell the difference. I definitely didn’t enjoy my steak. I took a couple of bites, and couldn’t eat any more. I had Creme brûlée for dessert, and it has some kind of citrus zest in it which I cannot stand with Creme brulee or flan. To be clear, our table didn’t send any items back and I gave our very aloof, inattentive server a 30% tip. I’m just saying I didn’t like the food. Also, I forgot to check if I paid for it, but they forgot one of our sides. My drink was incredible though. It was called The Exotic Bird. The ambiance is also cool. The restaurant overlooks the street. It would have been more enjoyable except there was a couple who let their two small children run around screaming and pestering other tables.

Great experience at LG Smith. Apps and steaks were delicious. Atmosphere felt very special and staff very attentive. Our favorite part was probably the table side bartending. Great fun and spectacular drinks!

Fransisco was amazing. The mixologist was so fun. We ended up coming back again just because the food and staff were wonderful. We had (Jason or Jordan) the second time around and he was just as wonderful. Everyone here is super kind and wants to make sure you have a wonderful experience.

Went for dinner expecting a "fine dining" experience since they advertise "prime" steaks. We were really disappointed in the quality of the steaks as the ribeye and strip steaks were tough and chewy. Will not be returning.

OMG ! I loveee LG SMITHS. They made my birthday SUPER special. Everyone there was so chill & nice. The waiters/servers/bartenders/hosts were SO NICE ! The food was better than I expected & I already knew it was good. I had the calamari to start & those were yummy ! They gave me a meatball on the house which was a nice, yummy snack. My short ribs I ordered were HUGE, JUICY & DELICIOUS !!! They were so big ! The meat was cooked to perfection quite literally. Wish they gave me more mashed potatoes but nevertheless, it was SOOO ENJOYABLE ! The dessert was SO GOOD TOO !! I can’t say it enough, everything I ate here was *CHEFS KISS*..I ordered crème brûlée & they gave me a birthday surprise w/ a flare & two chocolate ice cream balls dipped in chocolate. I’m usually not one for dessert after such a big meal but it was so good plus it was my birthday 🎉🎉🎉 Thanks for making my experience a memorable one. I’ll definitely will be returning ! 100000000/10 🫶🏾
