    Very underwhelmed by the food. Chops were still red at the bone and very sticky not easy to chew, steak was cold in the middle and everything was expensive. I dont mind paying for value of the money but really it sounded delicious on the menu but very underwhelmed when it was received. Very average/mediocre taste.
