| - I came here for a holiday work party. There were about 30 people in the party so we had a private room. The evening started hors d'oeuvres, crab cakes, egg rolls and fried lobster on a stick. All of them were delicious. The portions were huge.
The service was great, I always had a glass of wine, whenever it got low, the server was right there with another...very important at a work holiday function.
I ordered the 7 oz filet mignon topped with the peppercorn Cognac Bordelaise sauce. I ordered my steak medium rare and was very disappointed when it came back medium. However as soon as I cut my steak open, the manager was at the table asking how everyone's steak was; I told him mine was overcooked. He immediately offered a new steak, when I told him not to bother he offered lobster. Again, I was at the boyfriends company holiday party, I didn't want to make a big fuss. All the other steaks were cooked perfectly (medium rare). Other than my steak, the rest of the food was really good.
For side dishes, served family stye, I tried the asparagus and the lobster mashed potatoes. OMG!!! The lobster mashed potatoes were amazing! I could have eaten the entire bowl.
In the end, the service was great and the food was pretty darn good. I will go back and give it another chance. Especially since the manager offered me and my boyfriend each a $25 gift card as we left the restaurant and apologized for any inconveniences. Oh I forgot to mention the boyfriend choked on his first bite of steak - scary moment but not to any fault of the restaurant or the food.
I felt that the manager offering us each a gift card was awesome and it shows that they care about their customers and will go to great lengths to please them.
