Ate at the BACK ROOM steak house which is behind the CAFE. Only open on fridays and saturdays 5-10p. Only 11 tables there in the little restaurant area which is overflow to the buffett and cafe if needed. WHen we walked in (we were the first ones there as it opened) we were asked by the sassy hostess if we had a reservation. When we replied no, that we tried to make a reservation online and couldn't, she only replied "operator" like we were schoolchildren.
Apparently this is a popular spot for the elderly, as we were the youngest diners in the room during our hour and half stay (and I'm mid 40's). The one waitress knew most of the patrons by name and was a little to casual to us for my liking for the "upscale" prices and ambiance this restaurant was supposed to have. Butter tasted terrible for the bread, the filet had NO flavor to it and my friends beef was overcooked. We ordered the French onion soup and it wasn't a regular french onion soup, don't know how or what they did to it, but you basically had to put the bread in the soup after it was brought to you and so no cheese on top of the bread baked on.
There came a sauce with mushrooms on all beef selections and that was not specified in the menu OR by the waitress. It wasn't very good. I would have liked to have been told that it comes with a mushroom sauce ON the steak.
We were offered a free dessert due to my friends steak being overcooked and the dessert of Creme brûlée tasted frozen and cold on top, and runny on the inside.
Will not be returning
