    Had a wonderful dinner sitting outside. It was so peaceful. The food was absolutely delicious. I had Steak and frites and my friend had the domestic wagyu sirloin with Mac n cheese and roasted brussel sprouts. Everything was so good.

    My husband, Raymond and I, celebrated our 9th year wedding anniversary and enjoyed eating out on the patio. Everyone was hospitable, amazing food, the weather was perfect and fortunately the smoke in the casino wasn't as strong as it was the first time we visited. We look forward to coming back sooner than we did the last time.

    Was a little disappointed in the Alaskan King crab legs ! You can definitely tell that they were pre-frozen ! Crab cakes were excellent ! The beef ribs were excellent !!!

    Service was good but food is not- steak was bland, didn’t care about the risotto, and the mushroom was not good. I will not go back or even recommend this place.
