The food was good...ribeye, rack of lamb and filet mignon were all cooked to order however the double pork chop was dry and the sauce had some sort of a thickening agent in it, which is a short cut. I assumed a steakhouse would grill a pork chop correctly but that wasn't the case. I should have ordered it cooked medium. Our server did not ask how I wanted it cooked (many people assume pork can only be cooked to one temperature but that is incorrect.)

Half an hour later we were finally able to sit at that table. It took another 10min to be able to order and we waited 30min for our food. However, the steaks were great and so was the wine.
