This was our second time dining and both times we immediately encountered rudeness at the hostess stand. The meal was great, the hotel was great but we’re left with a bad taste in our mouths after spending $200 on a meal and being treated poorly upon arrival.

Went here for a 22nd birthday celebration for my daughter and we all had such a great time. Plenty of light to see the menu.. seriously sometimes the ambience is great but you can never see the menu. Presentation on everything from the salad to the dessert was off the chart. And quiet so you could enjoy the people your With.

Service was very good but the noise level was a bit loud for our liking. We both had steak which was good but if you've had a meal at Halls Chophouse this did not compare. Salary selection is limited to Caesar and the 2 sides which come with the steak are average. Oddly, baked potato was not offered and the mashed were nothing special. The dessert was "fun" and served in an unexpected way.
