Drinks were great! Dinner was okay. We had appetizer of the escargot. They serviced it and it toast rounds which were like croutons. To hard, we needed some nice bread to soak up the butter sauce the escargot is serviced with. The soup of the day which was butternut squash soup came out barely warm. Asked server to please heat it up and bring salt and pepper. Apparently they only had one salt grinder for the whole restaurant and a pepper grinder. Entree came, husband had crab stuffed lobster served with a corn risotto. I had the pasta surf and turf. We ordered a sharable of asparagus. Everything needed salt and pepper. Unfortunately, because we had to wait on server to round up the salt and pepper grinder it was not timely. Both entrees were very good. Just lacking in seasoning. Dessert they ran out of except for Crème Brûlée, key lime pie and something else. Fortunately we always selected the crème brûlée! Overall we frequent this restaurant at least 4 times a year for special occasions. It was good, but not excellent like we have experienced in the past.

Food was amazing except for the rack of lamb. Order it medium rare and got it back medium well. The lobster bisque was to die for. My filet mirin was ordered medium rare and it was cooked perfectly. The drinks were exceptional. There was a birthday party next door in a ballroom and the music was so loud it drowned out the music in the restaurant. We has 7:00 pm reservations and it was 10:00pm when we were finished. Be prepared for a lengthy wait. I don’t believe it was worth the $272 bill at the end of the night.

Danny was a great server. She was attentive & we didn't have to ask for anything. The food was great but a little underseasoned. The women's bathroom did not match the vibe of the restaurant. There were broken cabinet doors & cheesy pictures/quotes on the wall. The bathroom was clean, but again, it didn't fit the ambiance. The music that was played was like elevator music; dopey saxophone music that was just lame. Nonetheless, our service was phenomenal & we enjoyed our visit.

Food was good, just steak had way to much salt. Not many people were in there, yet our waitress was hard to find. We waited 20 minutes or so for the desert to come and then another 30 minutes to give us the check when we had asked another server to find her.

Our food was good as usual. But our waiter Jacob was awesome! The drinks were really good. My cucumber and espresso martinis were delish. Could change out the sides that you offer with certain meals. Carrots were cold and just ok. Potatoes weren't great either.

My wife and I were celebrating our 15 year anniversary by having done wine and steaks,, which both ended up being a disappointment.. I ordered the 8 oz fillet medium and whim it was brought to the table it was cooked Well done. I waited 20 minutes to report it to a waiter that was working a table nearby.. our waiter never came around to check on us like you think he would. Needles to say my steak was sent back, so my wife and I had to eat our anniversary dinner with out me.. Not one did our waiter ask or offer her a refill of wine.. we definitely expected more being our 15th year Anniversary..
