    My husband and I were celebrating both Valentine’s Day and we our 3-year anniversary. We started our evening with a bottle of red wine and the delicious spicy shrimp appetizer, per our server’s suggestion. Our fillets were cooked to perfection. To accompany our entree, we shared two side dishes, the loaded baked potato and the creamed spinach-yum. And ended our meal with the sinfully delicious cheesecake. The service was outstanding- thank you Henry we had a memorable evening. The long stem red rose was a nice touch!

    This was our 2nd time visiting this restaurant. Hubby and I went for Valentine's Day. I know they're trying to fit a lot of two-person tables on that day, but it felt awkward to be in the middle of two other couples. It was lovely to be greeted by a red rose on the table that I can bring home. The service was kind and quick. We received our dishes within 10 minutes. Unfortunately my steak was undercooked. It was corrected immediately, but it just didn't have the wow factor that a $45 fillet should have. Hubby had a burger with fries and said that it tasted nice as well. Definitely better than the average restaurant but he also felt it was missing a wow factor to send it over the top in flavor. The food tasted nice. Definitely better than other restaurants. Like a 4 out of a 5 for taste. We did feel a little rushed to get out with the bill arriving as soon as our meal was over because we were not having dessert. Again, this is probably because it was Valentine's Day. The staff was kind and considerate and nice the entire time though. We would definitely return. But I probably wouldn't get the filet again, because it wasn't quite the quality that it should have been.
