| - Totally forgot to leave a review on Yelp, did it on OT. So here we go:
We got there about 10 mins before our reservation and the host asked us if were a total rewards member. I replied no, she then told us to come back closer around our reservation time... I guess 10 mins was just too early lol.
We went to the bar and ordered 2 drinks. Bartender was nice. We surveyed the area and there were surprisingly a lot of empty tables. Anywhere between 7-8. Makes sense though, this was their official soft opening. When it was 8:15, another hostess came to grab us and take us to our table. We were greeted by Carey our waitress. She was nice and explained the details of the menu. A little hard to hear her as she was soft spoken and it was a little noisy in the restaurant, even though it wasn't packed.
We ordered the wagyu meatballs, pumpkin soup, beef Wellington, ny strip, Brussels sprouts and potatoes gratin, a glass of red wine and a new castle. The appetizers came out fast and we scarfed those down! The wagyu meatballs are awesome especially with the polenta croutons! Yum. The food was delicious!! Everything came out great and I was excited to have finally tried the beef Wellington!! The restaurant is upscale casual and the chefs' jackets emulate the show. Just a note, they're a little stingy on their wine pours. I would have preferred if they used a portion carafe instead.
Overall, the food was great, restaurant was nice, but nothing to make it really special or to give it that je ne sais quoi but, because of who I was with I had a wonderful time.
