    Always good food and ambiance. Service is A+ and haven't had a thing on the menu I didn't like.

    Excellent food, service, and Christmas decor! I recommend the crab cake appetizer, lobster bisque, filet medallions (tonight’s special), and their Christmas chocolate butter cake.

    Haven’t been in years. Unfortunately, the food wasn’t so good this night. Both the calamari and steaks were tough. Calamari was likely overcooked. The steak was just not good meat. I’ve learned that Linz is generally not very good beef. All my bad steak experiences in recent years were at restaurants where Linz supplied the beef.
