The price was borderline being to much but the cowboy steak made it worth it. IMO much better than Authers and the butcher shop for the money. We will definitely be back

Our go-to place in LR for a great consistent meal. Love the booth in the corner with a rat pack vibe with our favorite server, Alex.

I have had a better steak at outback. Seriously, no seasoning whatsoever, I ordered a filet and received an end that was not trimmed and was full of silver membrane and was tough. The baked potato wasn't warm enough to melt the butter and only part of it was tender. The creamed spinach was very little cream, the spinach was not wilted enough and was tough. The brownie was microwave warm and sat so long before serving that the ice cream was liquid on the dish. This was a VERY expensive meal. The bar tender although friendly, was over worked and was concentrating on getting drinks to the table, I waited forever at the bar to get first drinks as a server never appeared to take our bar order. The restaurant gave a feeling of not being cleaned due to debris on the floor, drapes that don't look like they have been cleaned in 10 years, the glass on the front of the place was so dirty that you could not see clearly through it, not speaking of the frosted glass but the glass that was supposed to be clear. There were 3 attendants at the front door and I had to open the door for my date myself while they were busy talking to each other. The sidewalk and steps leading into the restaurant were filthy. The whole evening was a huge disappointment and as previously mentioned was grossly expensive. I wish that I would have went to Outback Steakhouse or some other chain restaurant. This place is way over rated

We dined here to celebrate a special birthday and had noted the occasion in my reservation. Upon arrival, I also mentioned it just in case it had been missed. Unfortunately, there was no acknowledgment, which was disappointing, as I had hoped for a small touch to make the celebration feel special. As for the meal, my steak was overcooked beyond a proper medium-well, leaving it with a strong burnt taste rather than a rich, flavorful experience. For the price, I expected better quality. On a positive note, our server, Jeremy, was attentive and provided great service. However, given the overall experience, I’m not sure I would return anytime soon. I chose not to address my concerns at the time because I didn’t want to take away from my daughter’s birthday, but I do hope this feedback helps enhance future dining experiences.
