    This place is AMAZING! Every part of it was on point. The drinks, the food, the service was perfection. Everyone here cares about the work they are doing from the bussers, to the cooks, to the wait staff, to the hostess, to the bartenders. Teamwork makes the dream work and this place is a dream!

    Food was very good. Our party had steak and seafood, all excellent. Service was definitely high end. Keep in mind they do add gratuity to bill.

    We ordered from the Restaurant week menu. Based on what we received we will NEVER go back. First, we struggled to order a bottle of wine. Both of the selections we made were out of stock. We were offered a "comparable" bottle of Zin for the same price. It was not great. My Cosmo was served with Cucumber I have never had that as a garnish for a Cosmo. The gentlemen ordered a half dozen oysters a piece. They were TINY and served all together vs. a serving per person. There was no fork to eat them with. The Men were very disappointed. We were told by our waiter the portions on the Restaurant week menu were smaller. Three of us had the Caesar salad to start it was okay. I had the Lobster Bisque which was cold. The two women ordered the petite filet. Picture a piece of meat the size of an English muffin served on a large white plate with nothing else on the plate. The picture on the website for Restaurant week has a filet with Bearnaise sauce and lobster on top. This was a tiny piece of meat with nothing else on the plate. It was cold. Our waiter brought us sauce (which is usually an additional $5.00 for free) The Men enjoyed their Sea Bass. But the portions were tiny. The highlight of the meal was the desserts. We were offered cheesecake or Key Lime Pie both were outstanding and regular portions. The bread was also delicious. it was served warm with a great salted butter. We go to restaurant week to try the restaurant out to see if we want to go back or try any other restaurant affiliated with the restaurant we are visiting. Based on this evening we will not go back to Dean's nor will we visit any of their other restaurants. The atmosphere is very inviting so maybe go for a drink and go somewhere else for dinner.

    Great meal. Victoria was a fabulous waitress. Food was very good but they cut the portions in half for restaurant week. That was disappointing since the food cost isn’t that great. Also told them we had a birthday and they didn’t do anything at all to acknowledge it. Maybe they should pay more attention details like that!
