    You absolutely have to try the oysters Rockefeller, bone marrow. Very tasty best I have ever had. The lobster scampi style was a little salty but the pasta that came with it was great! Service was phenomenal

    Our steak came burnt. Definitely expected more from a high end steak house such as deans. Food were overly salty and slacked flavor. Service was attentive.

    I celebrated my boyfriends birthday finally and made a reservation. We sat at a round table far away from each other and nowhere to put my purse. I requested a booth, and at 60% capacity at 9pm, they couldn't move us. So I opted and sat at the bar at least we could be closer. Tim, our bartender, was EXCELLENT. Drinks were awesome, and he truly was so kind and funny. We really enjoyed our time because of him. My first drink was the spicy Cucumber marg. not so good at all, so I took Tim up on an old fashioned. Well, it was truly delicious. He explained several dishes and gave recommendations all while being the only bartender, including the pumping service well. I got the capital, surf, and turf. Probably would go med rare next time, but it's still very tasty. Lobster was also served delightfully with bone marrow butter. Finished the night taking home dessert they we haven't gotten to yet but nonetheless looks delicious. The winner of the night was the chilled king crab and Tim, of course. We will be back because he truly was excellent at his skill. Please recognize him!

    Wonderful experience celebrating my husband’s birthday. First time and will definitely be back. Our server was very attentive and the food was so delicious. Shrimp cocktail shrimp were extra large, filets cooked perfect and dessert was exceptional. Dessert we got the chocolate mousse and the little donuts were my favorite with the Nutella spread. Can’t wait to return.

    I booked a table for my wife’s birthday and paid in advance for the flower experience and was told there would be a vase of flowers and a card for her waiting at the table. When we arrived, there was nothing there. No one mentioned it so I asked the server and was told they “thought someone let me know” that the farmer who supplies the flowers was on vacation and that I’d be credited. I’ve still not been credited. While the food was great, for the price and having given a week’s notice, I was really disappointed by the lack of follow through and am so hoping to get my money back.

    My b-day dinner was flawless. ALL the food was absolutely amazing. Our waitress was on point and even guided us through the menu on what we could skip and what we absolutely couldn’t miss. Easily top 3 if not best meal of my life. 84 out of 10. Would HIGHLY recommend.
