A delicious meal we had at Willy’s! We shared the 14 oz NY strip with a baked potato and got the Salmon and Tuna sushi roll. Both were such great options and paired so well together! The caesar salad was also fresh and was dressed the perfect amount! It was really cool having the sushi bar right there so we could watch the chef make the rolls. We were debating going to another steakhouse but SO glad we chose Willy’s! You definitely have to try this spot if you’re looking for quality stake and sushi 😁 Will be back!

A remarkable experience to say the least. We loved the entrance, ambiance and old school speakeasy vibe. Our waiter was very knowledgeable, he did a great job. We started off with onion strings, which were so delicious I had to get an order to go home with! Highly recommended! I will say the only somewhat negative comment would be the bread, I didn’t particularly care for it. My wife ordered fried coconut shrimp and it was fabulous she said. I ordered the dry aged prime strip. Apparently that’s the only dry aged steak on the menu, I assumed they all were because on the menu it stated all steaks are 28 day dry aged. I ordered it mid rare and it came out PERFECT! Amazing char, juicy and flavorful. I will say, the dry age flavor of 28 days is much less noticeable than with say 42+ day aged. Still it was incredible. Also ordered the truffle fries, they were quite yummy. Wife ordered a few drinks which she loved. Also she asked for the crème brûlée, I had the triple chocolate cheesecake. Both were pretty good. I definitely will be returning, this place hit all the high marks. Be sure to make reservations, we tried to just stop in the day before and they were completely booked until 9pm, so we made reservations a day in advance.

Huge party of 15! Welcome to my family haha! Elegant atmosphere. Our server was prompt, kind, funny, and welcoming. This place is a hidden gem when it comes to a steak house, the atmosphere is cozy and casual, the place is well taking care, very clean. The choices of meat are great, cook to order with a lot of flavor, very tender and the sizes are phenomenal, the idea of sharing side dishes like mash potatoes or the vegetables is great. The staff was friendly and professional, very knowledgeable of the choices of food Excellent meal and service! Food was absolutely amazing and the service was phenomenal The menu items ordered were delicious. We had reservations and were immediately seated. Sushi and steaks were perfection. I have NO complaints.

We had a wonderful dinner here. My wife had the mushroom stuffed raviolis and I had the 10 Oz. Filet Mignon covered with crabmeat and hollandaise sauce. They were both cooked absolutely flawless!!! For dessert we had I believe what was called death by chocolate cake. It also was amazing!! The staff was very helpful and knowledgeable. Our waitress was very helpful and on top of things. This is absolutely a fabulous establishment to take your spouse out for a romantic dinner.

The atmosphere was elegant. Our server was very attentive. The fish from the sushi bar felt very fresh and of great quality, will definitely recommend getting anything from there. Food from the kitchen was perfectly cooked, I just think the roasted mushrooms could’ve been of better quality. Overall very good!
