  • I took my boyfriend here for his birthday. This is definitely a place to go for a special occasion. It's the experience you're going for - between the decor, the service and the food, it's all around great. It's a steakhouse established in 1959, the decor is old school and dimly lit, the service staff is smartly dressed. So note this ahead of time before you go and then complain about it after. If you want modern, go to Chop, The Keg or Jacob's. The decor is dated and probably is similar to the original decor when it first opened, if not it is still the same. It's extremely old school, which we thought was really cool. Note that our resos were at 7:30pm on a Thursday (I made them the same day around noon) and I watched throughout my meal as the place filled up to the point that every table had been sat. So you for sure need to make a reservation in advance. We ordered a bottle of wine (not a particularly expensive one, but also not a cheap one) and two 8oz fillet mignons wrapped in bacon (the side was actually included: baked potato or rice) and there were options to get an accompaniment as well. We stuck to our guns and got the steak and baked potato and left it at that. The 12oz would have been too much for me, and my boyfriend insisted that he didn't want to be uncomfortably full, so we both got the 8oz. He also ordered a caesar salad to start, which was a sizeable portion. Had I wanted one as well, we could have shared. Prior to the meal, they gave us a basket of garlic break and those famous pickled veggies that every other review for this place touches on (they really are tasty, and a nice added treat). My medium rare steak was spectacular. By the time I had worked my way the centre it practically melted in my mouth. It was wonderful. The baked potato unfortunately was too much for me to finish (I'm a small girl), and a service staff came by with fixings for it (sour cream, bacon and feta cheese) to add to it...I obviously went for all of it. He wasn't stingy about adding fixings either. Our server was really great. He didn't rush us, made sure we were okay with everything on the menu, let us be after our meal so we could finish our wine, and noticed when we finished our classes and promptly came over to see if there was anything else we needed (we passed on dessert because we were pleasantly full). At the beginning I mentioned that it was my boyfriend's 35th birthday, and he brought him Barberian's steak spice in a pretty big jar as a gift. Which was so cool! I assume his dessert would have been comped. if he ordered one. With tip in total, I ended up spending about $235.00. We really enjoyed it, we don't go out to expensive places often, so it was a really nice treat.
