I had birthday lunch here. The food was amazing. I’ve never had crabcakes that tasted so divine. The service was impeccable. The atmosphere was beautiful. Drinks were delicious. It was a little pricey, but well worth it.

The 20 oz. Prime Rib is perfect every time. Looks, cuts, chews beautifully. Service is always quick, attentive and friendly. Revise. Went again tonight. Ordered 2 the same. Medium rare. Mine was medium, hers was medium well. Should have sent hers back but she was too hungry. Tonight's meal was 3 star. Service was 5 star as usual. Gratuity didn't suffer.

Amazing experience! We went for my husband's birthday. We had a large group and even though they were extremely busy and booked, Dani, the manager, found a way to accommodate us. She went above and beyond to find a place for our large party of 13 people and she did it all with a friendly smile and positive attitude. Dani was absolutely amazing and made sure that we had a great time. Our server, Catherine, was efficient and friendly. We will definitely be back!

I have to begin this review with the hostess, Lindsey. When my wife and I entered the establishment, we were greeted by the profoundly gracious hostess Lindsey. Lindsey asked my wife if we've dined with them previously. As a result of it being our first visit, we were given a complimentary appetizer, but the gracious hospitality did not end there. Bathroom cleanliness is at the top of my list at all establishments. If I can trust your bathroom, I can trust your kitchen! The bathroom receives an above average review, alone. Chef Reggie stopped by our table to say hello. He gave us his background in Cajun cuisine because my wife ordered Cajun pasta. Without a background in Cajun cuisine, most Cajun pastas are just heavy cream with creole seasonings over a bland dish. The Cajun pasta was outstanding with intricate layers of flavor. The flavor profile had depth. At the conclusion of our meal, Lindsey reappeared to ensure that our experience was satisfactory. Additionally, we were offered Keylime pie as a parting gift to seal the level of service and satisfaction of our experience. I rate all aspects of our dining experience a 10 out of 10.

We have been coming here for years. The food is always consistent and fresh. The staff is always attentive, friendly and efficient! The atmosphere is just our vibe nice lighting nice music, friendly people everywhere! Brandon, who has been our bartender for years is excellent! We haven’t been here in months, and he treats us as if we are regulars! He always has a huge smile on his face as good recommendations and handles the bar like a professional! I would totally recommend coming here and spending time at the bar to order your drinks and food!

This place is the definition of customer service. I had a large group for my birthday and was initially told that they were extremely busy and booked and probably couldn't accommodate us. However, Dani, the manager, made magic happen. She came out to personally greet me and hear my situation. She was funny, friendly, and caring and was determined to help me out. Ten minutes later, we had a table and the most amazing waitress, Catherine. We truly felt like we were seen as customers and not just dollar bills. They made sure that we were happy and well taken care of. We will be back!

We like this restaurant. The food is usually good, and the service is usually courteous and professional. The steaks and the crab cakes were prepared better on the past. Steak was larger and more tender, and the crab cakes were hotter and more crisp in the past.

This was amazing, I have never had such a fantastic dining experience! Dani, the manager, took great care of us and we got to meet the wonderful chef, Reggie, who’s cooking us out of this world! Literally could not give enough stars here, I live about 2hrs away and will be back to Pompano JUST to come here!
