| - Pros: Taste of New York Sirloin (the Japanese Wagyu 2 oz. specifically), cool decor, really nice server named Carlos
Cons: None?
I went here with Kristin C. for our 2 year anniversary dinner last week and I was definitely impressed. The decor was really nice in here. It had a modern feel. The lights were dimmed which created a very relaxing and intimate setting. Perfect for a romantic dinner. We got a nice booth and a really attentive server named Carlos.
Decor is nice and all, but we all know the food is really what matters. After we ordered, another waiter came around with a platter of different breads. I got one wheat bread and one pretzel type bread. Apparently, the pretzel bread is their specialty. I could definitely see why. It was soft and delicious.
For my main course, I ordered the "A Tasting of New York Sirloin" ($140). It comes with different types of New York sirloin:
- Japanese Wagyu From Saga Prefecture 2 Oz
- American "Kobe Style" From Snake River Farms 4 Oz
- U.S.D.A. PRIME Dry Age From Nebraska 4 Oz
All 3 steaks were really tasty. Definitely, some of the best steaks I've had in my life. However, the best out of the 3 was definitely the Japanese Wagyu. So freaking good. It was nice and tender. My steak knife cut through it like butter. I can see why they only give 2 oz. too. Two reasons: 1) its the pricest per ounce and 2) I think since it's sooo rich and tender, if you get too much, it might be too much of a good thing.
We also got potato puree and mushrooms as sides and they were good too. But seriously, the steaks made my night. Hanging out with Kristin C. was cool too I guess :)
Overall, this place is great for special occasions. I might just have to go to CUT in LA just to get my Japanese Wagyu fix.
