    Our dinner experience was incredible, and Eddie and Ana's service was outstanding. I will definitely return because of the great service I received. All the meat was delicious! My favorites were sirloin and filet mignon.

    This place is beautiful. We went on a Sunday afternoon at 1 pm, our first time here. It was very nice and quiet, not too many tables occupied; but enough to make you feel it’s worth trying. They offer a good variety of meats - beef, lamb, chicken and seafood - constantly rotating and offered hot from their grill right at your table. Most taste great, but we found a few cuts to be overcooked, fatty and chewy. The sirloin, ribeye, bacon wrapped chicken, lamb chops and shrimp were our favorites. Their salad bar is outstanding, so many choices; but you must try a little of everything - no disappointments here. The service was very courteous, prompt and attentive.

    This was our second time here. We liked it the first time and really enjoyed it this time. The salad bar is well stocked, the selections of meat are great, and the Golden Steak feature they added was awesome. I belive the guy said it's a steak wrapped in 24k gold and cooked on a Himalayan salt rock. The chicken soup and beans were pretty bland, but everything else was excellent. My favorite was the garlic picanha. We will definitely be back!

    Racist manager and server. The server persistently ask guests to order extra drinks. Nowhere to find after bringing up first round of drinks. Declining service where servers no longer change your dirty plates voluntarily.
