   Service was great and food was over priced and not very good. Ordered steak medium and it was burnt and mash potatoes were tasteless.

   You never get a bad meal here. The food is amazing. However some things have slipped over the past few years. The host, Hunter,didn't seem to have a clue. He made us wait 20 min. while he seated others who came in after us even though the restaurant was only 15% full, luckily another host came along and seated us. That made for a bad start. The waitress was excellent but the young man who removed plates and filled water glasses kept reaching across us instead of moving to the side of the table. The soda and iced tea was so watered down that it might as well have been water. The steak and salmon were excellent. Cooked perfectly. The potato both mashed and scalloped were tasty and the brownie ice cream sundae was incredible. Our waitress, Allie(sp) was on top of everything. So, no longer a 5 star but still good.

   We were a group of 4 fun ladies. We were seated in the back room, which was full. It was loud and difficult to enjoy conversation. There were plenty of tables in the main dining room where we could have been spread out . We had some cruddy weather, and I think they were short staffed, so things moved slowly. Our waitress, Gladys, was friendly and personable. They really need to fix the trap in the bathroom, though. It reeks like sewage....has everytime we've been there. Unacceptable for the high end clientele they're serving.

   We had a wonderful time. Our steaks were cooked perfectly and the meal was fabulous. Well made cocktails. The banana bread pudding with whiskey caramel sauce was decadent. We celebrated our Anniversary and they gave us a champagne toast and card which was lovely. Our favorite restaurant in the area.
