    Gorgeous modern/traditional steak house atmosphere, featuring booths & banquette seating (if you hate tables like I do) - a major plus. Service is truly a 10 out of 5. This is my favorite special occasion steak house - prefer its unique & comfortable ambiance over Capital Grille or Mastro’s hands down. The whisky and bourbon menu is fantastic. Oh, and the farm menu is lovely.

    Went there with a group of 12 people, ages 7 to 66. Every single person in the group LOVED their meal. The portions were huge, and the service was excellent. They were out of an item that my daughter ordered, and went above and beyond to make it up to her. We will definitely go back the next time we are in Anaheim. Highly recommend this restaurant!
