I really, really wanted to like this place. We plunk down some serious change eating steak around town, so having a new one open close to us was exciting. I'll cut to the chase.
Wine - good wine selection. Unfortunately they were out of the bottle I wanted. We ended up ordering by the glass.
Lobster salad - generous portion of lobster with the salad. Tasty
Sides - carrots were delicious. Asparagus was asparagus. Tots were not tots, just potato squares. Waffle Mac and cheese was sinfully good.
Desserts - key lime pie was okay. The donuts were awesome.
The main event:
Filet - I ordered it medium rare and it came out medium to medium well. I hate being in an awkward position of having to send food back, especially because we were dining with another couple. Plus, they were out of the bottle of wine I wanted earlier so I already felt like we were swinging and missing.
If this weren't a steak place, I'd give them 3.5/4 stars. But you're a fancy steak place. I know, why didn't I just send my steak back for a new one? Like I said, I just hate doing that so long as it's edible. My husband traded halves with me and his medium rare steak was on point. However it wasn't anything out of this world to die for.
I'm glad we at least gave Andiron a whirl. I'd happily go back and order bites at the bar, but for local steak, we will stick with our faves of Echo and Rig and T-Bones. Sorry Andiron. :(
