Service was excellent. I imagine most people come here for the steak/meat protein. The offerings were good, but the chicken wrapped in bacon was dry, and the extremely well-done garlic steak was like chewing on shoe leather. The picahna was the best offering, although most was medium, not medium rare, which we prefer.
The cap steak was good. I got a few slices that were truly medium rare.
Nice to have a birthday dessert on the house!
The staff was so kind. The parking is expected in the city but they had valet. The food was true to advertised! Perfectly cooked and consistently delivered to your side by the staff who were well versed in not only the level how cooked everything was but also what drinks to pair the meat with. They also had a cold food table and a very well stocked bar. Beautiful ambiance as well.
Don't make the mistake of having a first date here. Be true to yourself. It's not a place for polite conversation, delicate bites or white shirts that you can't afford to get stained with a little blood. This is a delicious meat buffet and should be treated as such. In that regard, it's worth every penny.
Second time at this high end chain. The meats are delicious - hard to argue with. Other choices (the "salad bar" - but much more than that) were also good, service fine nice ambiance. If you eat a lot, it is not pricey, but you need to come (meat) hungry to justify the cost.
