Highly recommend!

My husband and I did not have a reservation, so we had to wait for about 30 minutes on a Friday night. The bartenders and servers were all really good at their jobs. The restaurant was packed. There was a man in the corner of the bar area playing guitar. I enjoyed the live music. He did stop playing about halfway through our meal. I guess his time was over. You can tell who the locals are. The bartenders and servers already knew their orders when the person sat down.
I had the filet with mashed sweet potato, husband had the chicken fettuccine. The potato skins were delicious. We had them as an appetizer. Our adult beverages were tasty. This place is nice, and it does cost a bit more than a chain restaurant would have cost. Your paying for the experience though.

The whole night was very memorable in the BEST

We had a reservation and it got lost somehow but Maggie at the front desk figured out a way to get us seated even though there was a 2 and a half hour wait without a reservation. I’m not sure what happened to our reservation but they did what they needed to do to work it out. We were so grateful. Our server, RJ was very funny and provided excellent service. When I order dessert for myself and my wife said she didn’t want any… Maybe a bite or two of mine, he said he would bring her a smaller spoon. When it arrived he brought me a HUGE serving spoon from the kitchen which was so funny. We had an excellent experience thanks to Maggie and RJ. The food was exquisite. I had a perfectly cooked Filet and my wife had the largest pork chop I think I’ve ever seen. The whole night was very memorable in the BEST of ways. Thank you for making our 23rd anniversary celebration so special!!

10/10 recommend

Our waiter Josh was amazing. He was very knowledgeable about the menu and other things. The food was amazing. I had the Emperor Cut Prime Rib and the twice baked potato and my wife had the Filet Mignon with a baked potato. The Mississippi Mud Pie was delectable and the bartender was excellent. We also tried escargot for the first time and it was absolutely delicious. The salad bar was also worth the $8.
