Our steaks were wonderful. Cooked to perfection. A small salad and a baked potato came with it. The place has IU lights everywhere, small, lots of tables. We had reservations, seemed like everyone did. We there early and were seated 15 minutes prior to our reservation time. It was a Tuesday and seemed busy, but not rushed. The staff was great. Quick and efficient. Expensive, but I would definitely go again for a special occasion.
