| - Aware that this is an amazing steakhouse, I recently had a very disappointing experience.
We were a party of four, celebrating a birthday in a top end restaurant. And too their credit, the mac and cheese side was about the best I have ever tried. We also had a fillet and lobster combo which is highly recommended for those who like the ultimate surf and turf.
I had the dry aged sirloin. It was flavorful, but, about as tough as a steak could be, plenty of gristle, and not what I expected. I ordered medium, and got it somewhere between rare and mid rare, not the end of the world, but, when you shell out $400 bucks plus for dinner for 4, one might have higher expectations.
The server was very friendly, however, didn't appear to have time deal with us. His insight and suggestions were helpful, but, the service was very slow. We sat at 6:30 thinking we would be done by 8, and and left about 9:15.
They did provide a complimentary chocolate cake for the birthday. We only ate a bite or two while waiting 20 minutes or more for the other dessert to arrive. When the other dessert arrived, the barely eaten chocolate cake was snatched away from us before we even noticed what happened. Apparently the waiter assumed we didn't want it because it hadn't been devoured.
I don't think this is a bad place, it was probably just a bad night for us to be there.
