    The food was amazing. The staff were very friendly and knowledgeable. Parking was easy and free. Great ambiance and atmosphere for Valentine’s Day or date night. A little expensive overall but was worth it for Valentine’s Day. I’d recommend to anyone looking for high-end food and experience.

    Visited on V-day 2025 one day ahead. Semi-regular guest but pouring rain so expected more no-shows. Not at Sundance. Overall service was impeccable and especially our table service by Jeff. He's a veteran there and extremely knowledgable of the menu and wines including how dishes are cooked and his recommendations, after thoughtful discussion, were perfect. have experienced similar table service in the past. Bone-in rib eye was absolutely phenomenal and just slightly more so than the prime rib. We split the caesar salad which was a perfect size. Good choices for accompaniments including baked potato, mushies, etc. We don't remember the enjoyable special cocktails and wines by the glass but they all matched well! Oh, yes, before I forget, the Chocolate Sundae dessert was a must have and perfect finish. Thank you Galen, Tanner and Jeff.
