Food very delicious. Traditional real steakhouse. Excellent decor. Two could eat the ribs and a Caesar and take some home. Sam our waiter is 10 star service. Can’t go wrong here. Excellent. Open Thursday-Sunday. You may want a reservation. Wear your finer attire. A high end establishment and it backs it up. Highly recommend.

What a hidden gem and inside of the Ameristar Casino building no less! The menu is small but when the food is this good you don’t need a vast selection. Some of the meals do not come with a side, expect a charge for additions to meals. I had the surf and turf, 7oz filet with shrimp and a side of Brussels sprouts. The steak is like butter, literally melting in your mouth, the flavor of the shrimp was just as impressive. The sprouts could have used something maybe a balsamic glaze or some candied bacon but they were good. My husband had the ribs, it comes with a baked potato. He could not stop talking abiut these ribs so I took a bite and he wasn’t wrong they were incredible. You’re given a small dish for the bones but why bother when you have to fork eat these tender fall off the bone ribs? The baked potato was standard but still delicious. We shared a caesar salad as an appetizer and it was perfect. The bread flows and it is a perfect pairing to the meals. The dessert menu looked superb, we didn’t have any room left and did not partake. It is true what they say, you get what you pay for, do not sleep on this place, it is worth every penny!

Very high quality food and service. The ribeye was cooked and seasoned perfectly and the truffle mushrooms were fantastic. They have a nice wine and beer selection. Our waiter was always attentive and worked to split our check with a big group. It’s definitely expensive but it’s a nice treat. Make a reservation if you have a bigger group.

What an AMAZING experience! Steve and his son, the team we had, are out of this world incredible!!! Food is of such high quality (thank you chef and team) and the care I and my 88 year old mother received was unbelievable. This is the example of you get what you pay for. Hats off to this wonderful gem. Thank you for the lovely memories.

I’ve dined here several times and been very happy with the food and the service. This last Saturday, I happened to be in town and stopped by just to see if I could get a table. (I figured I wouldn’t, but felt it couldn’t hurt to ask.) A smarmy dark-haired woman working the hostess desk greeted me and even though I asked politely what the chances were of us getting a table, she responded with an eye roll and with a condescending tone replied that they were fully booked that night. She then turned away from us dismissively. Uncalled for. Nobody deserves to be treated that way. Shameful.

This was my pick when my dad asked to treat me & my husband for my birthday; it came highly recommended from a friend, and it was a wonderful experience! Such great food! We started with refreshing Moscow Mules and a bread basket w/ various textures including a yummy & delicate cracker, my favorite. For the rest of our meal we ordered:

Cool spot. The food leaves a lot to be desired for the prices they charge. I’ve been here four times now and each time it’s hit or miss. Never had a meal that really knocked my socks off.

I have to admit, every time I’ve been here is with my mom and stepdad and it’s always been free because they like to play some slots. We always end up getting 3 orders of prime rib and it’s always been consistently good.

Albeit, I have been here numerous times and really enjoy the place, I have to say this was one of the worst experiences. The service (Mobinz) was terrible. He seems like a nice person, but the timing and check backs were not good. I had to get up at least twice to get my own beverage refill. I had to ask different employees for additional items such as butter, our check, etc. The amount of mashed potatoes on the entree was approx 1/4 of a cup or less. At first glance, I didn’t even see any mashed potatoes. I really enjoyed the chicken fried steak. However, the baked potato was old and hard and didn’t taste good. This is not my normal experience here, but it was not a good one this time. : (

The steaks were butter. The loaded potato was huge and delicious. The drinks were on point. The entire meal was perfect.
