| - This is the main place my hubbies family has their occassions. The place is trying to look upscale, but falls slightly short and looks more like an overdressed cafeteria with nice dishes in display cases and visible wine racks. The food, however, is incredible, with portion sizes that usually mean I'm bringing a lot home for later. Whenever we go here, we have the same thing. Shrimp soup to start and the Filet Mignon for entree and a bottle of wine. Of course, you get your complimentary bread/olives/cheese basket while waiting. For 2 of us, the bill is usually $125, before tip, so this is an occassion-only type of place, but we LOVE it. Sometimes, the steak doesn't have bacon and sometimes they do substitutions without telling you. We don't mind. They have entertainers on weekends. They give you that karaoke feel, but it fits their quaint other-worldly feel. They have an upstairs and downstairs for private parties and the main dining area is on the main floor. Kids are welcome.
