This was the best meal that I have had. I was surprised to have a jazz band playing live music which happens on Fridays. The steak was great and each wine pairing fit perfectly.

While this is dressed up on its website to be fine dining, it is not. This is catering or banquet quality food served in a tiled floor hotel lobby breakfast type room. Big miss. Yuck.

My family and I decided to go out for a formal Christmas dinner this year. If you don’t have food allergies, and a server that knows their menu, I think their curated 4 course meal would be close to being worth the money. However I did call prior to ask about gluten free accommodations and they seemed to assure me the chef had options. Upon arrival, the first and second course ended up being two variations of a salad and unfortunately the server still ended up bringing me the option with bread in it. I will say their salmon was cooked very well so that was something I was able to enjoy. Last course dessert—I was highly disappointed. Their “eggnog” was the Gf option and was more like a bland custard with very sour cranberry preserve on top. Overall: subpar for the amount I ended up paying at the end. Most likely, I will not be returning.
