    The food is delicious ! Everything is fresh and prepared with care. We found BackDeck by chance but have returned twice since. Also, our server, Ricardo, made the experience that much better with his happy personality, not to mention the excellent service.

    Last time I went to Mooo was probably 20 years ago, when they first opened. Great dinner and night. Very nice staff, vibe is hip and cool, got the beef dumplings which were excellent, then we split a sliced aged Porterhouse, carrots and onion rings. Food was very good. The steak was very good, but not as good as some of the other high steak houses. But definetly a great place and a must go. But if you want the best steak in town and that is only goal, there are other options. I enjoyed it.
