Server was very nice but overall service was super slow. Took at least 10 minutes before someone came to the table after being seated. Food was sub par especially for the price. The filet lacked seasoning. Thank goodness for salt and pepper. The seafood risotto was terrible. Ambiance was nice. Will not dine here again.

Friendly Wait staff but unfortunately inedible food. Paid $160 for four meals that should have never left the kitchen; dried out hangar steak, a chicken pot pie with no signs of gravy and two lobster rolls served on stale buns and filled with a watery, thinned mayo sauce covering what looked like a pile of squirming pink worms because they used only the teeny tiny little legs to stuff the roll, not a piece of actual lobster meat in sight. If the taste of the food wasn’t enough to make you lose your appetite, the look of those squirmy milky legs was enough to make you gag. The fries served with the meals were so terribly over-salted and hard that they were inedible. Just horrendous. Wish I would have taken a photo because mere words can’t truly convey the unappetizing, gag-worthy look of those meals.

He ordered the seafood pasta platter, said it was the worst he ever had. The muscles were cold, the shrimp was tough, very watery sauce. About a 1/2 cup of water from sauce on plate. I ordered a petite filet mignon medium rare, came to me very bloody, asked for them to cook it just a bit more, came back 20 minutes later with a well done steak. I ordered a White Claw, brought me a can and no glass. He ordered a Manhatten ($15!), with all ice, not much alcohol.

Food is decent. Servers are poorly trained and second rate, especially compared to their other locations. Manager is combative and condescending, which you see reinforced in the servers. For the money just hit one of the other options and gamble the savings. At least the casino offers the hope of something positive.

This was my first time here on the 4th of July. I wanna say. I have read these reviews and my experience is not what these 1 or 2 star reviews say like stay away. The service was great. I enjoyed my chicken Alfredo. I say don’t stay away. Come here and eat. It’s a bit more expensive however it is worth every penny.

Bartender very friendly, knowledgeable about all kinds of drinks, and the food menu. Seafood risotto was to die for! Will be turning soon. Prices a bit high, but good, quality food!

Absolutely wonderful! Really, I can’t recommend it enough. I saw none of the issues mentioned in other reviews, my wife’s Delmonico steak was “incredibly good” and the chicken I had was excellent. The waitress was very kind and notably patient with some other older guests. Five stars and we’ll definitely be back.

10/10 would absolutely eat here again. They took our reservation 30 minutes to close. The food was absolutely incredible. I can’t normally eat bread, but had no problem with their rolls. And our waitress was so kind about the amount of bread I was so excited to be able to eat. This was a birthday dinner for me and I am thrilled we had our waitress at this restaurant. Happy dinning everyone:)

We made reservations, took over an hour to get our food. The wait isn’t what bothered us. During our wait our waitress apologized, once saying we’ll comp dessert. Then as the hr passed said the manager will come by and speak with you. We did not ask for this. Our food finally arrived and it was very good. After we get our check the manager came to our table, with an attitude saying “You want to talk to me?” I said no the waitress said a manager was gonna talk to us about the long wait. The manager proceeded to tell me she checked our order and from the time the waitress placed the order and it left the kitchen it was 40 mins. Now would there be anything else? When the waitress came back with our receipt I told her she put us in an uncomfortable situation, she said oh must have been miscommunication. We never got the comp dessert she promised.

EDIT: After they reached out to me on this review I called the restaurant. I spoke to someone who took my information and said the manager would call me back. That was a week ago, no call yet… they seem to respond here to look like they care, when they really don’t.
