    Wonderful experience on a Saturday night. Had the calamari appetizer and omg it was so crispy, nicely seasoned and was a very large portion for the two of us to share. Entrees: ahi tuna which was absolutely delicious and the portion was large . The spaghetti with crab was very tasty and had a good amount of crab (wish the crab pieces were larger as they were on the small side.) S’mores dessert was fun to make - plenty for two people to share. Beautiful restaurant with wonderful service.

    Review for Nuts-et Steak House Last night, my wife and I had the pleasure of dining at Nuts-et Steak House, and the experience was nothing short of extraordinary. The ambiance was warm and inviting, perfect for a romantic evening. The food was absolutely spectacular. Every dish was crafted with precision and packed with flavor. The steak, cooked to perfection, was tender and juicy, while the sides complemented the main course beautifully. Their attention to detail and quality ingredients truly elevated the dining experience. The service was equally impressive—attentive, professional, and friendly without being intrusive. They made sure every aspect of our evening was flawless. Sharing such a remarkable culinary experience with my beautiful wife made it even more special. Nuts-et Steak House is a gem, and we can't wait to return. Highly recommended!
