So the food was delicious and despite the wait super worth it. My beverage was tasty as well. It was apparent that staff were working their buts off all night. However, nothing special was done for the two people in our party there to celebrate their birthday. Another drawback-my grandmother wasn’t made aware of the gratuity surcharge before leaving quite a large tip which was kind of shocking; she felt a bit taken advantage of.

Food was amazing, we tried almost everything. The service was a bit slow after we got our food and the people by us were drunk and loud, it was very nice after they left. Music was enjoyable. We will definitely be back. One thing i wished I knew before we went is you have the option to cook your own steaks or you can have them cook it for you.

Ribeye steak was tasteless but filet mignon and skirt steak got high ratings. The baked potato was cold and didn’t come with enough butter. Alcohol drinks were mostly ice with little taste of alcohol. Service was good in the beginning but became very slow. Large group in the room very noisy. Kind of fun place but sadly won’t be back anytime soon.

Before anything else!!! The staff our waitresses Ms. Kim and Ms. Aria (I hope I got her name correct) were just incredible. Ms. Kim was so attentive, quick, friendly and just had a real good vibe- the food was good! And the portions were on point. Wedge salad, wings,corn dog bites and bacon wrap shrimp! My husband and I shared everything plus a few shots couple beers! All under $140 ! They have live jazz!! We were not seated in bar area! But you can hear the music anywhere you sit! I definitely want to go back and sit in bar area listen to music! Was a cool spot! I will be back!

Excellent happy hour! 1/2 price cocktails and discounted appetizers knocked our Friday evening out of the park. Service was great and friendly.

We have come here since they opened over 16 years ago, and been through the iterations of multiple owners. The service is always wonderful, the drinks are strong and the food is good. Their happy hour 4-6 pm is the best in town. Our go-to items are the turquoise tots and the flat iron. The soups have been a great addition. It’s a great local dive - big red booths, fun cocktails - and we love coming here.

Had a reservation so we were seated right away. Heard that it was a 50min wait without one. This was on a Friday evening, so highly recommend having a reservation. Staff was courteous and helpful. One of the highlights of this location is the grill where you can cook your own food, however we opted to have the kitchen cook our steaks. Ordered the filet mignon, medium rare and it was perfect! The sides were so good (mashed potatoes and macaroni and cheese). Some of the best mashed potatoes that I’ve had in a long time. Drinks were nice and stiff. I hadn’t been here in years, but it was just as good as I remembered.

Steaks came out raw , sides were salty , salads came out one by one , one CC was overcharged, said they fixed it but it wasn’t , too much hassle to even try to fix it, overcharged by $80. Manager was nice but for $400 tab, it was very poor experience. It was also very hot.
