We went during lunchtime on a Monday and we were the only ones there (or at least felt like it). We sat at the bar and she took very good care of us. She refilled our drinks x3 without asking, made knowledgeable recommendations on the menu, and made sure I got a dessert to celebrate my birthday (she noticed me wearing a tiara). The food was perfect: flavorful and served hot. My partner got the ahi steaks and I got filet mignon with macaroni and cheese. It was hard to decide but you can't go wrong. The prices were as expected for an upscale, sit-down restaurant. For the 6oz filet mignon with Mac n cheese upgrade, ahi steak with buttered crab upgrade sprinkled on top, bottomless roy Roger's, bottomless tonic water, a mango jalapeño margarita, and tip, our bill was $160 (or $80/person).

TL;DR: Too expensive for what you get, inattentive service, dim unwelcoming atmosphere, and parking validation locked behind a paid signup. One good dessert doesn’t save it. We came here to celebrate a birthday, ordered drinks, an appetizer, main courses, and desserts for two. The appetizer came out almost right away, but then we waited about 30 minutes for our mains, even though the restaurant wasn’t very busy. The food was okay, but not nearly good enough for the price. Service felt inattentive most of the night. It was hard to flag anyone down, whether it be for drinks or any other reason. The atmosphere overall tried to be upscale but the entire restaurant was dim and dark while the staff were also inattentive which lent it to feel more cold and uninviting, which didn’t help the experience. Our total ended up being $162 for two people. Parking validation isn’t included unless you sign up for their “club,” which is a paid membership. Paying extra just to get parking validated after already spending that much on dinner felt unnecessary and honestly kind of frustrating. If you’re in the area, I’d instead recommend P.F. Chang's It’s quite literally across the pavement. the food is better, the staff are friendlier, the atmosphere is more welcoming, and parking validation comes free of extortion. Overall, this felt like a mediocre fine-dining experience with a premium price tag. However the crème brûlée was genuinely great and probably the best part of the meal, but it wasn’t enough to make me want to come back.

We got lucky and had a privacy booth. Made our meal somewhat intimate and I think that added to the ambiance. We started with the candied walnut salad. Definitely recommend it. Perfect balance of sweet and balsamic on a bed of greens. From there we had the stuffed salmon and ribeye! Both were outstanding, but the steak was top 5 ever for me. So full of flavor and cooked perfectly to my desired medium-plus temperature. Of course we saved room for dessert. We did the crème brûlée and followed up with the chocolate box. Never had anything like that before…. Absolutely delectable and could be shared by 4 so consider yourselves warned. Will for sure be back!

I haven’t been here in forever, and my last visit was also for Happy Hour, so it felt like a full-circle moment coming back. We were a party of 3 and luckily snagged three seats at the bar. Hein was our bartender/server and he was fantastic — super friendly, attentive, and spot-on with recommendations. We ordered from their HH menu and did an upgrade on the Old Fashioned. For food, we went in: Crispy Asian Calamari- I love this! Definitely not your usual boring calamari. It’s lightly battered, fried to a golden crisp, and tossed in this sweet-spicy Asian glaze that is ultra delicious. Perfect crunchy bite and amazing with a cocktail. Spicy Asian Shrimp Tacos- These surprised me! The kimchi aioli adds the perfect tangy kick. Really flavorful. Cheeseburger- My bf ordered this and he really liked it simple, classic, and done well. Truffle Mac (regular menu)- My friend planned for us to share it, but the portion was small so we let her enjoy it. I did get one bite, creamy, truffle-forward, and really good! Upside Down Candied Walnut Apple Pie (regular menu)- Hein recommended this and I’m so glad he did. It’s a 10/10! Warm, cozy, caramel-drizzled goodness paired with ice cream. If you’re thinking about dessert, order this and thank me later! Lol. Overall, a wonderful Happy Hour experience. Great food, and excellent service from Hein. We’ll definitely be back to do a regular dine-in next time!

was staying at a nearby hotel while on vacation and decided to try this place out. it was good but i would probably never eat here again. I had the 13oz ribeye steak and it was actually really tasty and super tender. the shrimp kisses has a good flavor but were super dry. the servers kept mixing up our drinks. also gave the steak my dad ordered to me. little mix ups not a huge deal but it wasn't even busy and that seems like something they should have down since they are servers and waiters lol. they did have great music playing the whole time and the bathroom was very clean. for the prices of the food I would much rather eat at the cheesecake factory next door. the outdoor shopping mall right outside was very cool.
