The food was OUTSTANDING. Steak was cooked absolutely perfectly,. Seasoned just right. Upgraded our sides to garlic whipped and was not disappointed.for dessert we were informed they have a pastry chef in house and l desserts were made fresh. After a very hard decision we planned on a chocolate truffle cake and it DELICIOUS. A perfect dessert to end our meal . Our cocktails were tasty and beautiful. Service was AMAZING. Our server knew menu items , and had fantastic recommendations. Checked on us frequent enough that we were never without anything. Water was ice cold and always filled , our finished dishes where picked up as they where being pushed aside. The lighting and ambience was absolutely perfect for date night . Seating was comfortable and intimate. We will be returning in the future.
