Went to Insignia for a belated Valentine's Day dinner with my wife and had a great experience. The service was five-star. Our waiter was beyond friendly and a consummate professional. We tried two different appetizers (stone cooked Wagyu and West coast oysters) which were incredible and served with amazing accompaniments. We both had different steak cuts for entrees which were cooked to perfection. Drinks were on point and the creme brulee and cappuccino were both among the best we have ever had. Do yourself a favor and reserve Insignia for your next special occasion!
