Steak was excellent. The crab cake wasn't warm. Tasted like it had been frozen then microwaved. No salt or pepper on the table.

Dined on Mar 6, 2025
The staff were very friendly and attentive. The cocktails were good. I ordered the salmon with mushroom risotto which I did not enjoy, but my date had the duck which was delicious. There was only 1 other table on a Thursday night so it was quiet. My primary concern was the ambience. There were very bright overhead lights. For a nice restaurant, I was expecting more dim mood lighting. Our table was wobbly and the appearance felt average. It didn’t feel like I was in a restaurant warranting the price we paid for the meal.
