| - This is one of those old school steakhouses that your parents reminisce about. The place has that 70/80's fine dining vibe to it. A bit dingy, but definitely fun and nostalgic to those who have seen this place in its prime.
The food was very decent. The entrees come with a plethora of side dishes and starters. They bring you a plate of pickles, olives, celery, green onions and full radishes to start which was a bit odd, the pickles were good though. Next comes garlic bread which was delicious and very garlicky, next were salads which was a bunch of iceberg lettuce and a single slice of tomato, and finally was the entree, served with a choice of potato.
Most of our party had the ribs, which came with a "Mexican" sauce, which you can ask for on the side. The ribs are really good, they're not your typical fall-off-the-bone style, which I actually preferred. The sauce has a sweet tomato flavour which was good on the ribs, but they were also great just plain. One person tried the rib steak which was flavourful and juicy.
The prices were decent here, much cheaper than higher end steakhouses like Morton's, more in line with The Keg or potentially even cheaper. It's a super casual, family friendly restaurant.
Unfortunately where this place loses stars is it's unoriginality. I'll likely forget about the meal I had here as there wasn't anything truly exquisite about the flavour, service or ambiance.
I would come back if I was invited to go here for a specific occasion but I don't think I'll be running back when options like The Keg offer the same or better selection.
