| - My boyfriend and I went to this restaurant for our anniversary and we weren't really sure what to expect since we kind of just picked a place that sounded fancy and expensive.
And indeed, expensive it was...but the food and atmosphere of the place really exceeded our expectations.
Upon arrival, we were seated immediately, having previously made a reservation online.
The atmosphere of the entire building is very intimate, romantic and classy. Dim-lighting, "the works". We were seated in a back, private area which was nice given our special occasion.
My boyfriend and I are both meat lovers, so he ordered the Ribeye and I, the New York Strip.
I must admit, this was one of the BEST steaks I have ever had. My steak was rich, succulent, and had JUST the right amount of juice spilling out. My boyfriend was also ecstatic about how great his Ribeye tasted.
We, in addition to our entrees, ordered 4 sides 'a la carte' since the menu was explained somewhat confusingly to us, so we just ordered what sounded good (asparagus, mashed potatoes, french fries and stuffed mushrooms). They were all wonderfully prepared and extremely delicious.
We were both pleasantly surprised by how many leftovers we had and how full we both were, and we hadn't even eaten all of our entrees and sides. So needless to say, we did not order dessert. (However it was extremely tempting.)
Another small, but contributing factor to our experience was unfortunately our noisy neighbors, sitting at the table behind us. There was a group of middle aged couples being extremely noisy, which was completely inappropriate and annoying to everyone else sitting around them, since the ambience was clearly meant to be more hushed and intimate. They would burst out laughing obnoxiously, every 10 minutes and seemed more interested in their wine than their politeness to everyone else around them, trying to enjoy their quiet meals. This ruined the experience somewhat for us, but completely wasn't a deal breaker.
Our waiter was very friendly, made us laugh, speedy and polite. What more could you ask for?
We weren't surprised by the bill, just because it was a special occasion and we had planned on spending a bit of money, but it was still more than $100 for the two of us, without salads, dessert, wine and tip. But we didn't mind since we thoroughly enjoyed our experience, and we even got to take quite a bit of it back home with us.
The only negative I have for this experience was the noisy neighbors, who obviously didn't have any regard for the surrounding tables.
Overall a great experience, and I would definitely come back here for a special occasion given the delicious food and great service. Not crazy about the prices, but I can deal.
