The filet was not seasoned. It was not flavorful and slightly hhard to cut. The salad was great. The potatoes and the asparagus were good. I was disappointed in the filet. The rest of the evening was fine . It was a birthday dinner. We do have dinner occasionally at Lon’s. This is the first time I have been unhappy

We ordered a spirit of the boarder drink, filet and a New York strip( bison) The drink was not balanced . The filet ordered as medium well was very mushy and undercooked . The bison strip ,well tasted gamey and that’s probably on me . The service was top notice , ambience, top notch. I cannot recommend for anybody that likes to eat steak and have canceled of wedding plans there due to ‘weird’ pairs and flavors .

Wonderful meal on a beautiful patio. Our server was friendly, helpful and attentive. Cocktails were sooo good! The short ribs were divine. My husband love his fish dish. The tuna appetizer on salt block was good but gets overcooked quickly. I think the lobster flavor was overwhelmed in the cakes and a little tough. Amazing wine selection. Our Fois Gras lover said this was excellent! Delicious bread pudding to finish the meal.
