This is one of the rare occasions I wish I could give more than 5 stars. Not just a good meal but a truly fabulous dining experience. The table service was phenomenal, both from the level of professionalism and personality along with a high level of attentiveness. Of course the food was sensational. It was fine cuisine presented well but also in satisfying amounts (not 3 peas around 1 slice). I can’t say enough about the deliciousness combined with top-tier service and ambience. A ‘must experience’ at least once in a lifetime!

It is an upscale restaurant. People usually visit here with family. I saw a lot of people celebrating their birthday. Looks like it is a popular place to celebrate birthday.

Iron Gate (IG) is a gem. It’s one of those last standing “old school” fine dining where you can travel back in time and pretend you’re an affluent connossieur of some sorts in the 80s or 90s. I’m almost certain they keep the interior a bit “run-down” just for that.

The steaks were cooked to perfection, as were the Oysters Rockefeller, the seared scallops and the chocolate mousse. The service was impeccable. While I do agree with some reviews that the restaurant was more crowded then what we’re typically used to during this period, I thought the food taste and presentation deserve a high score.

From the moment you step into Iron Gate, it’s like a throwback to simpler, more traditional times. Help yourself to rich, delicious American fare, and great desserts! The waitstaff will go out of their way to put you at ease, and help you however possible. The fact that they’re dressed to impress is just icing on the cake.

Went to Iron Gate for the first time to celebrate my mom’s birthday. The restaurant was beautiful from the inside and out. We were greeted by the friendly staff and were helped immediately. They have a fantastic selection of food and drinks, and also they had a bunch of specials that night. I ordered the black pepper steak, and it was so delicious. The owner cooks the meal in front of you and will put on a fire show. I will definitely be coming back here!
