   Always an amazing experience. The only downfall was the deserts until recently. Now their deserts are as amazing as the main courses. So happy with the new choices available

   I think it’s over priced for what it is. But all restaurants seem to be after Covid. Bread and butter isn’t complimentary. You have to order it. It seems petty when your paying over 300.00 for dinner for two.

   Food was truly amazing. As was the service. That said, this is a pricey meal but totally worth the splurge. The main room with bar is very loud - we asked to be moved to a quieter room which thankfully they were able to accommodate. Overall, an excellent experience!

   We had a reservation and they were so organized they texted me to let me know our table was ready before we arrived. Valet was available and the staff was so friendly from the front desk to the bar to the servers! This is a special place definitely recommend for date night !!

    Everything was wonderful except we were sitting in the bar. There was a speaker directly over our table playing loud music and combined with the noise of the blender used by the bartender it was very hard to have a conversation! Food was excellent as always!

    Not sure what value means. It is expensive but definitely worth it. Was the best steak dinner I think I ever had and the sides and wedge salad amazing! Had dinner in the wine library which was very nice however my only small complaint was the music did not match the Ambience, was rock and roll would have liked jazz or similar.

    The service and ambience are as good as they come. The restaurant has three dining areas, the main area with bar, a well-protected outdoor area (because of the excellent set up it was full on the rainy night we were there), and a back area where we were. I can’t say any one had a great advantage over the others, though the back area maybe had a little more room between tables and was a bit quieter. We ordered the special bread appetizer. The tiny loaf was made to order, hot and delicious with three spreads. We went for the prime 45 day aged bone in ribeye with mushrooms and baked potato sides. The salt crusted potato was superb, as were the mushrooms. They offer a list of sauces for the steak, the default being bordelaise and truffle butter. I can see why. The steak had an excellent pedigree and was cooked perfectly. Yet, somehow, it just was not as good and flavorful as better steaks I have had elsewhere, something they perhaps offer sauces to make up for. Overall a very good meal even if not the best steak I have had. In a restaurant that served steaks but was not a steak house it would have been ok, but I would have expected a really prime steak here.

    Food was great, waiter was great, price was reasonable and what I would expect. Unfortunately, we got seated by a side entrance door and it was a chilly evening. Not sure why this door was allowed to be used for an entrance.

    Turn the music down. People come to enjoy good food, good service, and good conversation. Having to yell at each other to be heard should not be the situation.

    Inside the restaurant is way too noisy for fine dining. The bar and TVs don’t add to the ambiance. We have been there several times and everything is good except for the loud, rude customers who ruin the nice dining experience for others and people who bring toddlers to dinner instead of getting a babysitter. It can be a nice/expensive dinner with the ambiance of Abblebees.

    It was our 40th Anniversary celebration dinner. Reservation made a month ahead & disappointingly we were shipped upstairs to Timbuktu. 2 other large parties up there made for a very harried staff. Not our best trip to our beloved Selanne’s

    This restaurant never disappoints. Having had my Birthday dinner there multiple times, I would think the owner could stop by for a chat! The Birthday treat was very small, guess they wanted me to buy my own Chocolate Lava Cake! ;) My special request was not honored as I am a huge fan of the Fois Grau they used to serve before PETA had their way with the restaurant industry in California! Guess I need to go to America to enjoy the treat I really want for my birthday!

    The food was delicious, but the service was terrible. We were first sat outside and the heater was either blasting hot air right onto your head or the other options was to turn it off and freeze. They were nice about moving us inside but they moved us into the bar area next to a door that staff would keep going in and out off. The door would slam shut every time. It was extremely loud where they sat us and clearly we were with older ones and couldn’t even hear each other. One of the staff member seemed like he hated his job and had quite an attitude. The staff would reach over you as you were eating to set things down on the table. This is a nice and expensive place. Customer service needs to be better. Not a comfortable time. The only good thing was that the food was delicious. Probably won’t be back cuz the service and atmosphere was so uncomfortable.

    Overall a pretty loud place, but that isn’t a problem with me at all. It’s just people having a good time. Food was fantastic, service was excellent. So many different people came to our table to help us out and see what we needed. I tried to pour my own wine since we got the bottle and the second I picked it up someone came to my table and said “may i?” This place is perfect for a dinner date with a loved one.

    Delicious food and attentive but not obtrusive service. Only slight negative was not enough soft surfaces to absorb sometimes high ambient noise levels.

    The food was ok. Asked for steaks to be medium and received them rare. Mac n cheese was outstanding along with the appetizer poblano soup. Waitress had no personality and never asked if it was a special occasion or anything. Never asked how the dinner was or if all was okay. We were celebrating a retirement.
