   The Manager Parwaan and servers Dominic & Essence went above and beyond to make sure our dining experience was excellent. The food was exceptional as always. We will be back soon.

   I recently visited State of Grace for a Christmas date with my husband, and while I had high hopes for the evening, the experience was a bit underwhelming. We ordered 1/2 dozen raw oysters and Oyster Bienville to start, followed by two spritz cocktails and the Bistecca alla Fiorentina as our main course. While the service was attentive and the ambiance was inviting, the food itself left much to be desired. The oysters were fresh, and the Bistecca alla Fiorentina didn’t live up to expectations, especially considering the hefty $370 bill. Having traveled to Florence, we’ve enjoyed authentic Bistecca alla Fiorentina at Trattoria ZaZa and Buca Mario. The portions there were much larger, unbelievably flavorful, and cost around 70 euros—an experience we still miss to this day. Hoping to relive that memory, we decided to give State of Grace’s version a try, even at $225. Unfortunately, it fell far short of the real thing. Overall, while the service and atmosphere were enjoyable, the food fell short, making it hard to justify the cost. I wouldn’t recommend it for the price point, but it might be worth a try if ambiance and service are your priorities.

   Very nice server and experience. However didn’t place order until we had been seated 45 minutes. Missed an appetizer that was ordered and speed of food and delivery were just off. Just seemed like the restaurant was overwhelmed, understaffed, or just out of sync tonight. Quality of food and ambience was excellent.

   This was our first visit since the re-launch. Frankly, it has just become another expensive steak house in a city with a glut of those. In that genre there is nothing that stands out here over any of the other steak houses. This was a fun place with a great oyster bar and interesting menu. That is all gone. Service is exceptional and the decor is great. My blackened redfish was very tasty but served lukewarm at best.

    After seeing a Tik Tok I really wanted a great place to take my wife on our 33yd anniversary of our first date. This place did not disappoint! Food was outstanding and the service is on point! We could've stopped at the petite appetizer. It was huge! Dry aged rib eye and filet were delicious. Crème brûlée big enough to share. We will be back but will be sharing plates. The portions are huge.
