I absolutely hate having to write this review of a place I love to eat. This was my first time at this location and some things went well and other thing just wrong.
I will get straight to the point. We ordered no appetizers just salads. I asked for a beefsteak tomato with blue cheese dressing and crumbles. This, I would say was good, but that tomato was in the border of being overripe. Still, good and dressing tasted fresh and made in house. I also had the lobster bisque which is decadent! A must have.
We ordered from the specials menu and got the 32 oz Waygu Bone-in Ribeye. I cannot say enoug good things about this steak. It was delicious, perfectly cooked to the temp we asked and all that was left were two slices and the bone. More on that in a moment. To accompany our steak we ordered the 14 oz lobster tail broiled. This was the first thing I had thus far that was simply not up to standard. This thing was overcooked and tasted like rubber. Absolutely awful. This was a business dinner and not the time to make a big deal of it but after a bite or two each we left the rest. Another issue was that if I would have wanted to complain, our server would go on sabbaticals now and then. I had to flag him down from across the room to get my drink refilled twice. Another young man came in fast and poured tea in my glass. I don't fault him because an empty glass of Coke looks like and empty tea glass. I caught him the second time and stopped him. He is fast to say the least. Something I cannot say about our server.
On the server, this young man had a habit of putting his hand on my wife shoulder. This go to the point that if he had done it once more I would have had words with him and the manager, clients be damned. Totally unacceptable and inappropriate.
We ordered the carrot cake for dessert and it is wonderful but be warned, it is the size of half a cake! All four of us ordered coffee when we ordered dessert and for some reason he kept asking our guests regular or decaf in spite of us saying multiple times, all regular. Our cake arrives and I assume the coffee is coming. That is until we are all almost finished with our dessert and again, had to waive him down from across the room. When I asked about the coffee he apologized and said he forgot and then said, "It was two regular and two decaf, right? At this point, after being sparse much of the night he is now hovering and continuously asking us if we want more coffee in spite of us all telling him no. Wagyu Tomahawk Ribeye
Finally, we asked that he box the remaining steak for our guest and the bone in a separate box. Given his issues, when we were about to leave and I asked him if he had boxed the steak separate from the bone and he confirmed he had put them in our bag but said he would change it we liked. At this point we were leaving. I get home and no steak, just the bone. Now, he had an odd sense of humor and kept joking, repeatedly, if we didn't eat all the steak and lobster it was no problem, he would eat it. Hmmmm...
