| - It's been a long while since I have given a chain restaurant 4 and a half stars, but comparing it with its kind, it's actually pretty awesome. I got the opportunity to try a sampling of several appetizers, sides, steak, and desserts . What a pleasant surprise!
Some must haves...
- The pretzel sticks appetizer. Soft inside and salty outside, with two dipping sauces that really complimented it well.
- The fried shrimp appetizer. Plentiful and delicious with some banana peppers and ranch dipping sauce.
- The steak! I ordered the filet, cooked to a perfect medium rare.
- The mac and cheese. I didn't order it, but looked on with envy as one of my companions devoured it.
- The chocolate dessert. This thing was massive. MASSIVE. More than enough for two people and really better suited for four. For $6. What? And it was delicious. Not terribly rich for as much chocolate as it was, which i appreciated.
What really sold me on this place though was the service. I went with a very large party (20 people) and the staff did a great job. There was one little snafu with a steak - the manager didn't like how it looked and didn't serve it, which meant that person ate a little after everyone else. We didn't really care, but they were super apologetic and even gave him a gift card for the trouble. Above and beyond for sure.
