    The steak wasn’t properly cooked, some had asked for medium and received rare. After sending it back, it still came back pretty rare and not medium. We had to ask 3 times to cook it a bit more… shouldn’t happen in a steak house

    Never disappointed in the overall experience. Meat cuts excellent and prepared to perfection. Side and drinks reasonable assortment however the pricing model could be reworked as you don’t want to come dine for special occasions only. We absolutely recommend to those who enjoy top class meat cuts with soft live music and attentativre staff and management.
