                  We had an excellent dinner at Carvers! We started with cocktails and wine. For entrees we had the early special, 2 of us had the filet and 1 of us the prime rib with the sides. The price for the early special is great!

                  Carvers never disappoints. Service was excellent, food was perfect and delicious and the atmosphere was great for an enjoyable evening. Two of us had the filet mignon and it was cooked perfect, someone had the prime rib, also cooked perfect and someone had the lamb chops and also cooked perfect. The salads and sides were delicious.

                  We had prime rib, full rack of ribs and the filet trio (my favorite!). Everything was cooked perfectly and tasted wonderful. Also, the blue cheese dressing is to die for!

                  Food was good. However, on OpenTable I added that it was a birthday celebration, but this was not communicated to the restaurant.

                  Phenomenal food. Truly one of the best steaks I’ve had dining at a restaurant. We came here for our anniversary dinner, our server was nice, & they gave us a free dessert for the occasion. Overall very happy with the evening
