We came here on a Sunday night as a group of six, and they were able to accommodate us all. We all had cocktails which were... delicious, and split appetizers which were equally as good. The server was attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu she alsocame with a couple recommendations. The entrées were good I got the Denver which was delicious, and the rest kind of spread outwith the different plates. As for those people that are saying it was too salty apparently they have never heard of a rub. Itwas all priced pretty well for a steakhouse which is always nice. I definitely will be back. If you are looking for a decentlypriced steakhouse for dinner and then this is it. I for sure recommend this place, but make sure you have reservations. Read more
Shrimp, Caesar salad, truffle stuffed baked potato, steak sampler of tri-tip, filet, and tri-tip wagyu, and Bananas Foster... cheesecake. I woke up still stuffed this morning! Oh, and, I'm apparently not getting out and about often enough, because itsure seemed like everybody in there was absolutely gorgeous. LOL. Read more
Absolutely amazing, cannot wait to visit again! Gabby and Christina went above and beyond for us. Highly recommend. Truffled... creamed spinach and steamed clams are a must! Very fond of my cocktail choice too, Solana Highlands Read more
Still beyond myself as to how I had such an awful meal here. From the salad to the onion rings to tartare it was like someone... was just pulling levers and doing guess work in the kitchen. These were some heavy over salted , over dressed dishes. Overdressed salad, a mountain of Parmesan that just came on it , over breaded and under fried onion rings. Rare steak ordered mediumrare. These were just total rookie misses on part of the cooks that night. Cool ambience and drinks. Will actually go back tothe bar but will stay away from food. Read more
There aren't many steakhouses around, so I was exceptionally excited for this. That being said, would say I was a bit... underwhelmed. Atmosphere is great, service is excellent. Ordered the wedge salad, Parker rolls, and coconut shrimp. Wedge saladwas over-dressed, under-lettuced, and there was too much blue cheese. Rolls were fluffy and excellent, shrimp was great. Got the"Associate" platter, and 30% of the meat was just too fatty to enjoy. Whole Lobster tail was good. Shell Mac was fantastic,ricotta ravioli was good, whipped potatoes were a bit salty. Butter cake dessert was not good (go to Nick's in One Paseo if youwant butter cake). My suggestion for this place is to skip the meat board and order the cut you want. 4 stars for the excellentservice, prob 3 stars otherwise. Read more
We stopped by before the Donavon Frankenreiter show for dinner and was not disappointed! Grilled lobster and bone marrow apps... were amazing. Fried chicken was enormous and perfectly crispy! I could have done without the dinner rolls, a little too butteryfor me, but overall this place was amazing! Waitress was great too. Read more
If you?ve seen my other review of the Rare Society in downtown, this location doesn?t disappoint. Outside of the people... watching at this location, the food is spot on - tons of flavor packed with a punch. We tried the board this time around andwas well worth it, coupled with the different sauces - fantastic. The mushrooms continue to be a crowd favorite as well. Read more
