We ate downstairs, enjoyed a Filet and Baked Cod combo with spinach and noodles, some garlic mushrooms, and broccoli. The staff was great and very attentive. Finished the meal with a piece of cheesecake with a chocolate, carmel, and raspberry drizzle. All the while playing in the background was great music (Rat Pac style music). It was a great experience.

First time trying it, I've cooked for over 20 years tastes like they microwave their side dishes. Service was alright a bunch of teens lacking in serving exp. Left dishes at the table when they came back several times. Great atmosphere though.. Also seemed the kitchen is also ran by teenagers while i was waiting to be seated i could see some of the workers in the back. It might be worth a second chance.

I usually like this place. Been there a couple times with my wife and her mother. But this time was uncalled for. My party of three and I were sat at the same time as a party of seven all to the same waitress so it was very tough for her to keep up. We had to ask somebody else for Waters when I ordered the special and something else. I found out 20 minutes later that the special wasn't available. But I heard other tables order it after me and they received it. So not sure if I'm going back there again.

The food and atmosphere were excellent. Felt like we were stepping back in time. The service was paced for a long dining experience, which I didn't care for. Just dinner and an appetizer were a couple hours. Ribeye, prime rib, and Parmigiano chicken were good. French Onion soup was delicious. Peanut coleslaw was not great, and steak fries were cold. Overall, very positive.

The food and atmosphere were spectacular! Grace was our server, and she was amazing! I would highly recommend A+

Their specialty, BBQ ribs, were very dry and almost inedible. My wife’s chicken was also overcooked. The salad and rolls were the only good food. The service was also extremely slow. A big waste of $70. Luckily I will never have to return. You may also want to go elsewhere if you want a good meal.

Service was alright it seemed like we got lucky if we were able to actually catch our server to ask for what we needed. Food was not worth the time we waited ( over an hour after ordering ) nor the price. We had to ask when our food would arrive as it seemed like we had been forgotten about but after reading other reviews it just seems like their norm. Server said the food was still cooking and we should have it within the next 5 minutes, 15 minutes later we received cold food. The broccoli tasted as if it was warmed up in the microwave and was mushy and not seasoned, just a boat load of melted butter thrown on top. After being served we boxed our food and left within 10 minutes. I wouldn’t recommend especially if you are celebrating a special occasion .

We drove almost 40 minutes to try this place because a friend recommended it. They keep it darker than it should be. I ordered the Ribeye medium rare and it came out medium rare with the outside burned. Whatever seasoning that was on it was disintegrated and It tasted like an ashtray. The other 3 people in my party like their food but none of them got steak. I ordered a salad with ranch, as did the rest or my party. My salad was the only one to come out with some kind of sweet dressing. It took about 1hr and 45 minutes for dinner. I don't mind waiting if the food is worth it but it wasn't. I gave them 2 stars because the other meals were OK but the cooks ruined my $33 ribeye. Complete disappointment. I doubt we will go back.
