- CRCharles RodwellNov 16, 20255.0Just booked over the phone with Mr Hastings and he was super friendly and very helpful. He made my reservation experience worth calling in. It seems simple but things like that go beyond the standard mile. Please recognize him for his hospitality!
- CWChandler WardNov 3, 20255.0Great dining experience for our group of 7. A few dozen oysters to start, steaks, and several sides shared for the table. One of my favorite Ribeyes in town. Location makes for easy walk to nearby bars for a drink after dinner. Attentive service again and again keeps us coming back!
- CNCorrine NoormaeOct 18, 20254.0Ryan was a great waiter! Drinks were fantastic, the bread was fluffy and warm. The best brussel sprouts I’ve ever had! The filet was extremely average and we didn’t care for the jalapeño cornbread. The service was great and high end. We enjoyed our time and meal overall.
- TCThomas CoeOct 14, 20255.0Delicious steak and frites on the bar menu. Perfect for a small meal if you don’t require a full-sized dinner. Staff were friendly and helpful. Had great conversation with some locals and business travelers.
