| - This review is for their "steakhouse " which is only open on fri and sat , the food was good , but just fancier versions of their regular fare , most items are the same but with a special sauce or different presentation , which that being said is not necessarily a good thing ! Because the price doubles ! The French onion soup is good , but hard to eat in the bowl they serve it in , bread service was a nice touch , when asked about the difference of the prime rib from the "steakhouse" to the reg menu , the server said it's a better cut of meat ! , which makes u wonder what is regularly served ? The prime rib was juicy and tender , but really no different than their reg menu , although the veggies were wonderful! a nice mix of asparagus , spinach and zucchini ! The stand out of the meal ! Dessert was a chocolate mousse with fresh berries , served in the same soup bowl ! Lol but none of strawberries were stemmed which kind of defeats the purpose having a fancy presentation , when u have to spit out the stems , Becuz no knife was presented with dessert ! As for service most servers are from the regular restaurant and definetly seem lost in the higher end environment , and most seem clueless about the menu or presentations of the special dishes ! And they do have bussers a who were for the most part vigilant and kept tables clean and water filled , but really clueless on higher end service and when asked a question said server would be here soon ! Maybe give them the job of wiping wine glasses , as my first one had lipstick or a water stain or both ? But it was a nice pour for the price 7$ ? All in all it was a slightly above average experience , but definetly not worth the doubling of price , as the food is prepared in the same kitchen and servers from the regular restaurant walk in/out thru the service doors and as usual most don't look like they like working there ! Maybe in the future when menu Items are a definite departure from their regular fare , and their service is fine tuned , it will be a nice alternative to the hotel ! But as is save your money and have the less fancier versions next store !!
