We ordered the same thing (tomahawk steak to share) as last time but it came out differently. We actually had to cut it off the bone this time. Looked at others around us who ordered the same thing and theirs came out as we expected. Steak also wasn’t as good as last time. Dry and flavorless.

Everything was perfect. The crab cakes are the best I have ever eaten, and over the years, I've eaten a lot. Oysters were yummy. Snapper Turtle soup was amazing. The rockfish was delicious. And the petite filet was fabulous. Our server. Amanda was attentive, gracious, efficient, and delightful.
