| - WOW, where do I start? The friendly hostess', the immediate seating and the small tour was a great way to begin.
Our server, Charles, knew what he was doing and it showed, he was extremely knowledgeable. Since it was our first time, he took us under his wing and guided us through the Ramsey experience.
Let me start by saying, we ordered 3 plates of the bread THEEE plates (there were only two of us!) the truffle muffin and I think the other muffin was a bacon one, those were the bomb, but also, the fig bread. It was all too good.
For our meal, we started with the bleu cheese salad. Nothing to write home about, it was just ok, but a nice start.
We then ordered 4 oz of the Kobe beef.... Holy hell, I wish there was more. It was so tender and so full of rich, robust, saltyness flavor. The side of wasabi and lime added a nice touch, but of course the meat was wonderful without.
For our main dishes, I ordered the Ribeye and added 3oz of black truffles. The steak was so rich, tender and juicy. It was charred on the outside, like a little crunchy and then soft and tender on the inside. Of course, I always order my steaks medium rare and this steak was cooked perfectly. The only thing I would change is to opt out on the black truffles. It did look like they were sitting on the steak (and under the heat lamp for a while) they had definitely been sitting and I could tell by how wilted they looked on the steak. Not just that, but the truffle just made the steak too much, like it was too rich and the steak was wonderful on it's own.
We also ordered the Mac n cheese (I would love more please!) asparagus and the baked potato that they split for us! (Such a thoughtful gesture) it was topped with a cheese sauce and bacon. It was gone within 1 minute of hitting the table and I'm not embarrassed to tell you..
We ended the night with two espressos and it came with these adorable chocolate spoons that we stirred into the coffee.
We had such a wonderful experience, we can't wait to come back!
