   Steak was good I had the filet but my husband had a ribeye and it was tough , the 15 hour potato was not done and cold and then the asparagus was not cooked . I reserved a window seat for our anniversary and didn’t get that either. We enjoy going out but I won’t make a special trip to eat here.

   The food was very good and served hot. The bread rolls could have been heated longer; as it was, they were not even warm in the middle and felt liked they might have been microwaved to warm them up. I was expecting a nice crusty exterior with a tender interior that would melt butter. That didn't happen. My stroganoff was delicious and the meat was very tender, The noodles (actually fettuccini) could have been cooked a bit longer. I had enough left over for a meal for two which was nice. My hubby's pork chop was tender, but a bit on the dry side. The asparagus that accompanied his chop were perfectly prepared and very tender. The potatoes au gratin were swimming in butter, and he bypassed those. We shared a creme brulee for dessert and it was excellent and came with a cute green macaron stuck in the middle of it. The ambience was perfect us as we prefer a quiet dining experience, and the service was very good as well. Overall, we enjoyed our meal and were happy the restaurant was open for Christmas Eve as not any of the really good restaurants in Chico were. We understand the menu will soon be changed and we are looking forward to revisiting restaurant when the new menu is in place.

   My husband and I love this restaurant! From the time you arrive and the service is the BEST! The food is so delicious. There is not one negative comment I have about this restaurant! We have been there before and will be back.

   The restaurant has a lovely environment and nice seating. Our waitress greeted us promptly and we were served water and bread and butter while reviewing the menu. Two diners had the cedar wrapped salmon and both enjoyed it, with the exception of the small salad of greens which they said was 'tough'. One diner ordered the Prime New York, 6 oz, med-rare, which came out as requested. I ordered the Filet Mignon, 8 oz, med-rare, which arrived medium. It being a $52 steak, I requested that it be replaced. The next steak arrived almost blue and they returned it to the grill, finally acheiving an acceptable finish. The side of Au Gratin was swimming in oil and not very appealing. This is an expensive steakhouse and should be able to produce a steak to the right degree of doneness.

   Food was excellent. Our server was friendly and very helpful - especially in explaining wine choices. Only disappointments were: never offered a 2nd cup of coffee, we were celebrating our anniversary and no one wished us a happy anniversary & the ambiance was greatly diminished in that the window screens were not working and we missed a beautiful sunset.
