    We ran late for our reservations, and they took care of us when we got there! Very warm atmosphere! Very good filet and drinks! Karl was very helpful and would come back just to have him serve us. Next time I may have to leave my husband home if I can get Karl to wait on me again, if you know what I mean…. We have had steaks from top restaurants in Chicago, Vegas, and Miami, but this was top tier. George T Stagg whiskey one of my husband’s favs and he was very happy they had it! Ron, was also a great waiter. No complaints only compliments for this restaurant. Wish my husband had a few more and those guys could have taken me to the “O”train! Valet inside, so anyone doesn’t have to wait outside is a definite added plus.
