| - 1981 called and they want their restaurant back. Holy smokes (literally)! We walked into a very "supper club" type atmosphere, and were hit in the face with stale cigarette smoke odor. The bar, which has a separate entrance, is separated from the restaurant by a door, which diners kept opening to go back and forth to smoke. Pretty gross, but we were so hungry we stayed. Let me tell you off the top: The 5 star reviews this place has gotten are so far off the mark it's alarming! Also, a Chophouse?? I think not. Diner, maybe. Outdated Supper Club, definitely.
Let's go over the menu: We started with the stuffed banana peppers. This is one of two reasons I am giving this place ANY stars. Not terrible and about the right amount of sauce and cheese. My husband ordered the breaded shrimp for his dinner entree. Overcooked and definitely frozen, with canned corn (think elementary school hot lunch) and a pretty disgusting salad (that had, literally, a rotten tomato on the TOP). How that made it out to the table is a wonderment to me. Also on the side were some very weak instant mashed potatoes, sitting in a virtual pool of butter-type yellow liquid. He took one bite and just could not eat anymore. I ordered the fish sandwich. The breading was really dark and flavorless. The bun was this huge boat of a stale bun. No thank you! The fries that came with it appeared to be hand cut, which I can appreciate, but had no salt whatsoever. More regarding the menu: Decently priced, but you get what you pay for, I guess. Nice selection of steaks, sandwiches and dinner entrees, but as for flavor?? Probably not happening.
Our waitress was very friendly and accommodating. That would be the other reason it deserves a 2 star rating. Though my husband and I are classic "silent killers," that smile and say everything is fine, not wanting to hurt the server's feelings. But then we leave with the intention of NEVER coming back. If we had pointed out the problems, I wonder what her response might have been.
I hope this helps you if you are deciding whether or not to dine here. Unless you enjoy breathing in stale cigarette odor, eating overcooked, flavorless food, and an ambiance of dirty 80's wainscoting (with a vacuum cleaner just sitting there in the dining room), do not bother. By the way, if you have ever felt a twinge of sympathy for fish living in poor conditions, do NOT sit near the "aquarium." It was probably cleaned the last time the men's bathroom was.
