My wife had the steak Diane and I had the Delmonico ribeye. Done exactly right and the steaks were juicy and flavorful. Our waiter, Justin, was very helpful and we appreciated his input. Also had shrimp cocktail with the traditional sauce and an additional guacamole sauce, which was fantastic! We will be back.
