    I loved the fine dining feel here! The service was outstanding from Abby our server, to the others refilling our drinks, and to the manager for cutting our steak! The food came out to the perfect temperature and the taste was immaculate! Highly recommend the Silver Butter Steak for Two, mashed potatoes, and the loaded hash!

    This place has outstanding service! I’ve never been treated so well- my water glass was never empty and I drink a lot! The food was also spectacular and they brought us a complementary cake and ice cream as it was my partners birthday!
