    Dinner reservations at 7:00pm with my family. Ordered rib eye, lamb chops and crab cakes. Ribeye and lab were requested medium. Rib eye was tuff and chewy and lab chops were too rare to eat.

    I was so happy that they were open on Christmas Day albeit with a more limited menu. Unfortunately, my prime rib was cold and my baked potato was lukewarm…

    We had our Christmas dinner there. Most delicious steak I've had in years! The veggies were on point; and wedge salad was perfect. Service was great and unobtrusive. Wonderful experience all around!

    It was COLD!! And they changed half price wine night to Sundays despite it saying Monday when I booked, and even sitting at the table it said Monday. The manager refused to honor it even though I waiter thought they should. They messed up the sidees on 2 of the 3 plates. No one asked if our steaks were cooked properly either (one was overdone). Most disappointing time there ever, we would have gone yesterday for half price wine AND prime rib.
