Awhile back we stopped going to Red Lobster in Midlothian because the food and service were so poor. They never seemed to recover from 2020 challenges. Even the cheese biscuits were bad. We decided to try it again last night because they offered a free meal for veterans. Everything was very good. Our waitress was professional and friendly. The food was back to pre 2020 standards. The cheese biscuits were perfect. We will definitely be back.

First we had a drink in the beautiful, cozy bar. That was a very nice space. For dinner, our service was very good. The green tomato starter was good, followed by salmon, also good. The renovation work is incredible. So well done! The lights in the restaurant are glaring and way too bright. Perhaps consider dimmers? Because of the lighting, the ambiance was lack luster. Consider background music, candle on the table, perhaps a simple bloom in a vase. All in all, we enjoyed our evening and look forward to returning with a more extensive menu.

A little gem not far from the Jefferson Hotel. Superb wine list including dozens of selections by the glass, which is rare and impressive. The food was absolutely delicious and arrived in perfect sequence. Highly recommend!

Truly a dining experience, not just a meal. We were seated upstairs in the bar area, our server was very attentive from the time we arrived, around both bar and food service. Knowledgeable about the menu, particularly around pairings (protein with sauce/compound butter, à la carte sides, and wines). Classic with a twist steakhouse menu in a beautiful historic building. Definitely on the favorites list. ❤️

Phenomenal and outstanding service for our first visit. Everything from the food, the waitress the server, even the Valet attendant was superb. The only exception that I will make is that I felt a little claustrophobic due to the tables being so close together. Other than the one exception, I really enjoyed the experience. I know that some people would disagree, but I honestly think that Perry's steaks are better than Ruth Chris. There I said it.......
