The Flame exceeded my expectations in every way. I got so tired of buffet options while staying in the area and when I found out they had a restaurant.com certificate available, I was sold.
Managed to walk through a questionable area without getting mugged to get there. Had a few doubts beforehand but they were all set at ease, and then some.
Awesome food, ambiance, and service from start to finish. The shrimp cocktail was super fresh and the shrimp were gigantic. Filets were cooked perfectly and of high quality, all the side dishes ordered (creamed spinach, grilled asparagus, garlic mashed potatoes and mac & cheese) were fresh and really good. Dessert was vintage peach melba and raspberry sorbet.
Our servers were wonderfully attentive and very nice. Ended up giving them a 25% tip because service that good has been a rarity in my dining experiences for a loooong time.
