Ken Stewart’s Grille is always a favorite of mine for years. From the time you walk through the door, the staff greets you and immediately attends to you. The food is delicious and exactly as ordered. The servers work hard to accommodate and ensure everyone at the table is served timely and together. The bartenders are the best in town and friendly!

I've never had a bad meal at Rosewood Grill and this was no exception. Everything was very good to excellent. I think the best were the sushi shots starts - I could have eaten a dozen of them. The least exciting were the desserts - pretty much the same as everyone does: chocolate cake, creme Brulé and cheesecake; how about something a little more unique. Service was excellent, maybe slightly less attentive than usual, but they were very busy.
