This place is probably the best steakhouse my husband and I have been to. Everything is amazing and so is the service and ambiance. The complimentary cotten candy at the end of the meal is really cool and actually tastes great. The only thing we thought was odd was the plastic advertisement of a piecaken that took up space on the table. It seemed out of place for such an upscale establishment. But regardless, this place is great! We will go back for sure!

Great experience as always at MJ 23. It was right before a show so it was pretty busy and loud but that's to be expected. The waitress was fantastic and was very apologetic that the drinks took a while to get. We completely understood due to how crowded it was in the restaurant and bar area...even so she offered to give us a free dessert which we politely declined, so instead she comped our wings. It's great service like this and of course the consistently great food that keeps me coming back
