    The surf and turf special 2 truffle crusted filet medallions and crab stuffed lobster tail was excellent. My boyfriend got the lobster butternut squash ravioli, which was also great. We did a wine tasting before dinner to try out options before we ate. And I always love the tabletop wine decanter. You can really taste the wine better. Our server was also very friendly and helpful . Always fun for a special occasion or date night !

    Everything was amazing however it was a birthday celebration and although we ordered a dessert a candle or acknowledgment would of been nice. Not recommended for a birthday but will definitely return for dinner. 1st visit at this location, overhead parking was a plus since it was snowing.

    I had a NY strip steak that was perfectly cooked and was the most tender strip steak I have ever eaten in my life—which, at my age, is saying something. In addition, I cannot rave enough about the service in this restaurant. Perfect to the tiniest detail. Highly recommended!
