Great service. The steaks were delicious. We tried the peppercorn sauce and the one that was BBQ-like and both were good. I had the steak frites and my fries were perfect. The potatoes and Mac and cheese were just okay, a bit bland. I would recommend trying the steaks and perhaps a different side from what we ordered!
