    Outstanding service and the best steak I have ever eaten out. And I am a Ribeye connoisseur and have been know for raising the best flavored beef in our region.  I know my beef and this was exceptional. Credit where it’s due. 👊🏼 $$$$

    Outstanding from start to finish. Started with the house old-fashioned downstairs in the speakeasy before moving upstairs to our reserved table.

    We had a late supper at Monks on a Friday night. Things were winding down for the night, this had no effect on the service we were provided. The cocktails were tasty, the main courses were very good, and we enjoyed some cheesecake for dessert. I

    Excellent food, excellent service, and excellent vibe. The seafood risotto was wonderful - tender calamari, tiger shrimp, and large chunks of lobster. Our waiter was knowledgeable and passionate about the food and the bourbon. The decor was elegant, serene, and fun. This is a great new addition to downtown. We will be back!

    Truly great experience. Steaks were cooked perfectly, tasty sides (creamed greens in particular), delicious desserts, and well-made cocktails. Excellent service.
