    The quality of food is impeccable and service was on point. 12/16/2024 Nithin was our waiter. Everything was so good, we returned 12/26 and Matthew was our waiter. All staff were friendly yet professional. Our water glasses were always refilled timely and they respectively checked in with us to see if we needed anything or if we were fine, which we were always fine as they took care of our needs proactively. Highly recommend this restaurant: their steak, bread basket, and halibut. We will definitely return.

    Our family enjoyed a wonderful Christmas Eve dinner here. Thank you so much Jessica for being so accommodating to our adjustments and welcoming! Jennifer, our server, for table 33 was amazing! She was so attentive, friendly and truly brought the joy and warmth of Christmas to us all. The food was so tasty, from the meatballs, the crab cakes, the lamb chops and dry aged ribeye. The cheesecake was delicious as well. It was all cooked to perfection and presented very well. The bottle of Meiomi paired well with the meats. It was truly a great experience. Thank you so much Jennifer and everyone who contributed to our night. Merry Christmas!🎄🎁

    3 of 4 steaks were amazing. The other one was cooked over done twice. Expected better for steakhouse in Palo Alto.

    Found this gem in downtown PA. The meal was excellent! We tried the sweet and sour shrimp and hummus for starters. The cucumber and tomato salad was delicious- very flavorful. We shared the halibut special and ribeye. Both were excellent choices. The presentation and recommendation of how to eat the ribeye (roasted garlic, salt, and butter) - two thumbs up!!!
