    Pimento cheese fondue appetizer was amazing. The tomahawk was cooked to perfection. Bacon Mac and cheese was just okay. Could be seasoned better. The crispy Brussels were not crispy at all due to the dish it was served in more than likely. All in all great time!

    Realize its Christmas. The kitchen was backed up certainly not the waitress's fault. Overall a 4 is fair.

    I have been hearing some great reviews about this spot. My parents, son, and I went last night for dinner. Absolutely wonderful! Drinks were great-I had one of their holiday apple cocktails and then a glass of wine. For starters we had the Japanese fried chicken (10/10) and some wedge salads. For entrees, we had salmon, filet, waygu ribeye, and the cheeseburger. We all loved everything we got! There are some bigger proportions so we had leftovers for today. My son got the chocolate cake and he said it's the best cake ever! Kevan, our waiter, was super patient, even when my parents asked for 100 different things. :) Taking my husband here soon for date night! Do not sleep on this place! Try it out!

    Although we were excited to try a new restaurant, we will probably wait a little while to go back. Music was extremely loud, took a very long time to get our drinks, we ordered salads as appetizers and they brought our entrees without having brought our salads…so we ended up with all this food on the table at one time. Our server was very nice. But the wait for wine, and the entrees being brought immediately and salads after that was not great. I would DEFINITELY advise that you put a PHONE NUMBER on your website. I wanted to call prior to coming to ask about something and there is no phone number. Then we were delayed by a wreck on Highway 378 which detained us so we were late getting there but had no way to notify you. I phone number on a website is a must if you want repeat customers such as us.
