    Most amazing birthday meal tonight. The server was so attentive and made sure we all knew how the menu worked and how to have the best experience. The broccoli was the number 1 at our table followed by the chicken dish and the market fish. The s’mores dessert was so fun and delicious as well! Everything 10/10, worth the wait for a reservation.

    The place is very sophisticated. We opt for the christmas Day feast. We haven't started the menu, but they serve as a cornbread, and my husband loved it so much, and he can't forget how good it was. i was so surprised their beef is so soft that it melts in your mouth.. overall, the food is fantastic, and the server, too,

    We had a reservation for our traditional Christmas brunch (11 a.m.), requesting outdoor sitting. We were greeted upon arrival, and our request was honored. They were not very busy. The facility was clean and neathly set up. The view of the golf course was beautiful. The service was fabulous. We were attended to frequently, keeping our coffee and water filled. The drinks (Memosas and Bloody Mary) and food were delicious and freshly made, and the price was decent. The only unfortunate part was that there was no brunch menu, and breakfast had ended, which was a downer, and resulted in several parties walking away. We were really looking forward to having breakfast food.

    We finally tried Steak 48 and it definitely lives up to the hype! Had a wonderful Christmas eve early dinner. It was a treat to sit at the bar-James, the bartender was friendly, made excellent drinks & further detailed the menu. We ordered the crisp shrimp appetizer, bone-in rib-eye, bone-in filet & roasted cauliflower. All were fantastic, cooked perfectly/as we ordered & came out sizzling hot. Quality of food is superb, as was the service and ambiance. Can’t wait to come back! Thanks, James & Steak 48!
