Exceptional Dinner Dining Experience with a Few Small Hiccups Our first visit to this restaurant with friends was a fantastic experience! From the moment we arrived, the staff—from the valet to the restaurant team—were warm and welcoming, making us feel like family. The atmosphere was upscale yet inviting, and everything was exceptionally clean. The food was truly outstanding. Initially, I expected it to be just another overpriced, trendy spot, but I was completely wrong. The quality of the ingredients and the generous portion sizes justified the pricing. At a minimum, you can expect to spend $100–$150 per person**, and that’s without extra drinks or desserts. If you indulge in both, your total will likely be closer to $200–$250 per person**. Steaks range from $55 to $150 each, sides are about $15 each, and seafood, chicken, and crab cakes are priced around $40-$50 per entrée. At the Nashville location, they offer a few more affordable options, including a **cheeseburger, steak sandwich, and chicken sandwich** for under $20, all served with fries (chips). For appetizers, our table ordered **calamari and crab cakes. The calamari was cooked to perfection—light, crispy, and not rubbery or chewy like some places. Unfortunately, the crab cakes were cold in the middle, which was a disappointment, though the person who ordered them chose not to say anything. For the main course, I had the Ribeye with cremini mushrooms and a lemon drop martini**, while my husband ordered the lamb with scalloped potatoes. Someone else in our party also ordered the Ribeye, and it was equally fantastic. Another person ordered the New York Strip, which was cooked exactly as requested, and another had the **salmon and shrimp**, both of which were cooked well and enjoyed. In fact, all the steaks at our table were cooked exactly as ordered, which is always a great sign of a quality steakhouse. The sides were also a hit! In addition to our scalloped potatoes and cremini mushrooms**, other sides at our table included lobster mac and cheese, baked potato, and garlic mashed potatoes—all of which were thoroughly enjoyed. The portions were generous, making them great for sharing. The warm bread served at the start was also a delicious touch. And a word of caution—when they bring out the steaks, they come on sizzling 500-degree plates, so be careful! Not everything was flawless—one person at our table found the chicken a bit dry and lacking flavor, and of course, the cold crab cakes were a letdown. I can’t remember all the cocktails ordered at our table, but I believe one was a mint mojito. I’m unsure of the others, but everyone enjoyed their drinks as well. Parking is valet-only, and it was $8 when we visited. I always make sure to tip both the person parking and the person retrieving the car. Overall, this restaurant exceeded my expectations, offering top-tier service, high-quality food, and a great atmosphere. Despite a couple of minor issues, I would absolutely return!
