It was a really nice experience. Our waitress was wonderful and the steaks were very good. I ordered the t-bone which I do not normally get so I'll return for the filet.
I enjoy these "old school" steak houses that take you back to the 50's and 60's. You feel like you are on a set for either a gangster movie or Mad Men. If anything Durant's was lacking some of the nostalgic quirks I've come to love from these sorts of places. You do go in through the kitchen, the booths are straight from the 60's, you get this little platter of random veggies, and the service is great (completely out of place in 2014!). But I would love to see the waitress prepare something table side. I've seen them do the salad or baked potato at a number of places not to mention the dessert.
Durant's would be a talked about experience with some of those extra touches, but even without its a throw back gem.
