    This is hands down one of the best dinner experiences I’ve ever had. The ambiance and set up of the dinning area along with the bar is breathtaking. The food was delicious and we got a wide spread to eat. The wagyu meatball was a great start, the wagyu steaks simply melt in your mouth. The sushi roll we had was rolled perfectly so that it doesn’t fall apart on contact or when dipped in soy sauce and you could taste each ingredient inside it (we went with the music city roll). My girl and I split a bourbon fillet and the chef was kind enough to split our meal onto two plates evenly with beautiful presentation on each. I could not stop eating the parm truffle fries and of course we finished the night with one of their signature desserts of a golden boot. Very exciting to watch come out and tasty but very sure you leave room and have plenty of people to share it with! The entire staff is aware that you are paying quite the price to dine here and everyone treats you like royalty while even adding a personable touch to the hospitality. Everyone from the hostess to the server all the way up to the manager who greeted us was incredibly kind. I cannot wait to come back again. This is definitely a spot to bring anyone you wanna impress.

    Service was fantastic. Food was excellent. Great ambiance as well. The only negative was the very limited handicapped parking space but we were fortunate to find a space close to the front entrance.
