| - We wanted try a new steak house and my wife mentioned Onyx. Which we came, we ate and we loved it. I'll probably say, that there are a few things that I dislike, but the things I did like, was more of an impact than the dislikes
Located on Ann Road and close to the 95, its like a hidden steak house which looked really fancy. The building itself was built in a unique way, to stick out, once you drive in the parking lot. Upon entering, you have a choice to sit at the bar or a sitting in the restaurant. I think that's kind of clever to limit the noise from the bar and the restaurant. The restaurant doesn't seem that big, like other steak houses, but very roomy and very well decorated. We did go on a Wednesday night during dinner time, so it was kind of quiet and probably had 3 other families in the restaurant.
We were escorted and sitted at a booth, which was nice and comfy. Looking around, it looks like they have live entertainment to perform here and there. What did bother me, was the slow service. Probably that it was Wednesday and they expected not to be busy, it was a bit unsettling in a way. I'm sure they probably have their reasons on why service was slow, but it would probably be better if they had help from the guy at the bar, who wasn't doing much, just to take some drink orders. It did take a while to get our food ordered as well. Wasn't really happy with that, but I'm sure they have their reasons. They were nice and all, but a bit slower than I'm use to.
What made it worth the wait was the food that kept coming. We did started off with the Skirt Steak which was really good. Presentation was nice and the sides with cheese and avocado made it very tasteful. After the Skirt Steak appetizer, our Fillet Mignon came in with our baked potato and veggies. Which were well cooked to our liking. The baked potato was nice, and soft. The Fillet Mignon was amazing and fulfilling. Since we got full from our steaks, we decided to split a cheesecake for dessert. It was really good. Overall, dinner was amazing.
If you don't mind the wait, then this is well recommended. The food presentation was elegant. The restaurant is very well kept in detailed. Sure enough, we'll probably come back for more.
