   We had reservations for 8 to celebrate my husband's birthday. Ambient, beautiful location. Staff is miserable, had one waiter who cut out meat and weirdly told my son in law , 'Your done" and then avoided our table the rest of the meal. He was really chippy but no one at our table spoke a bad word or was disrespectful. We have no idea why we were avoided. Our children were behaved, there was no request made on our behalf, our table was clean and we spoke nothing by gratitude. I'm not sure what or how we were supposed to be the perfect customers but these waiters were miserable. For over $300, we would at least want to feel good and not like we were walking on eggshells with the staff. We wouldn't come back.

   We’ve gone here many times. The service is always good and the food is delicious. We went last night it was busy so I will give them that. We were sat and got our salads rice and other things. Took over 10 mins for someone to come by with meat. We were sat right in the middle. They just kept walking past us. We tried to get their attention. Didn’t work. Finally our waiter came back and asked how everything was. Said wouldn’t know haven’t got any steak. Then our table was flooded with people which was great. But the steak was cooked right but maybe bad cuts ? Flavor wasn’t there really fatty. Yes I know that’s where flavor is at. Butchers daughter also worked in the meat department. I know what I’m talking about. Just not a great experience like before. Maybe like I said before they were busy and it was kinda chaotic in there?

   Amazing food but way to crowded. Hard to move around salad bar and I wanted more meat carver tried their best but waiting most of the time to get what you want to only receive a two bit piece of meat.our group ended up leaving early. BTW if your a first time dinner like we were when the offer dessert just know it's extra! We were offered but not told it was a lot more. If know wouldn't have Ben surprised with a 500$ bill.

   We wanted a good salad with a variety of toppings so we decided to try Texas de Brazil. The greens were very fresh and they have a wonderful selection of toppings. I would definitely recommend this restaurant if you’re interested in a salad meal that’s filling. The staff is very professional and always there to help. It definitely is not an inexpensive salad but a very good one.

   This is an experience! I highly recommend trying it at least once! I do want to warn people, it is quite pricey.

   Was a great anniversary dinner & appreciated our server for the informational on our first time at this location. The hot and cold sides were amazing as well as the meat coming around itself. They were amazingly helpful accommodating to our meat preferences which stood out to us the most.

   From start to finish the entire evening was amazing. Making reservations was a breeze. The wait time was excellent. Our waiter "John" was awesome. Wasn't over bearing, came by frequently to check in on us. Provided excellent recommendations. The staff that served us various meats were courteous, and efficient.

    Almost all of the meats were tough and gristly. Kind of disappointing for a lunch at nearly $100/person. All of the sides were very good, but let’s be honest, people go there for the meats. The service was awesome, so no complaints about the staff, the restaurant, or the experience, but had we known it wouldn’t be the meat-lovers treat we expected, would have just saved our money or gone elsewhere.
