Best Restaurants with a Fireplace in LAX / Westchester

We had a delicious dinner at Porterhouse Bourbon & Bones this past weekend. It is in an excellent location, and beautifully laid out. Our wonderful servers Alonso and Cynthia not only provided superb service and recommendations, but showed great pride in the incredibly diverse and tantalizing menu from appetizers to main courses with a nice selection of steaks to other creative options. There was a long list of bourbons and scotches, as well as a well rounded wine list by the glass or bottle. After cocktails, we shared a delicious Maryland blue crab with a nice sauce and grilled corn. Their Baby Gem Caesar salad was excellent with light, fresh croutons, shaved cheese and an exquisite dressing ~ truly a gem. The Prime Filet and Wagyu New York Steak were delicious and prepared as ordered. Alonso explained the prep of the Creamed Spinach with Blue cheese in a light Mornay sauce and the nice fried fingerlings with tasty bacon lardons. The En Route Russian River Pinot Noir went well with our dinner. So why not 5 stars? In any restaurant experience, the evening starts with the front staff. When my wife checked in, the first encounter with Kennedy the hostess at the front was impersonal, unenthusiastic, robotic and rude. We had reservations for a booth because of her bad back, but she was brought back to a small table she couldn’t maneuver into even with 5 open booths. Kennedy reluctantly went back to the front. When I walked in, my wife was left standing at the table. When I saw the situation, and inquired at the front, Kennedy was consulting with the French host. After waiting a few more minutes with no recognition or acknowledgment, she was sent back to reseat us at a booth saying we had to leave by 7:00. Fortunately the rest of our dining experience was enjoyable, relaxing and delicious. I am sure Porterhouse Bourbon & Bones would want to know of an employee who does not represent them well. We look forward to dining at Porterhouse again.
