We were told that our table would be ready in about 10-15 minutes. We found a seat in the bar area and waited. And waited. Our table was finally ready shortly after 9pm. The restaurant is quite beautiful, but some aspects looked a little outdated. We ordered calamari as an appetizer. The sauce was good, but the calamari was a bit rubbery. My husband and I both ordered the filet mignon, medium rare. Mine came medium-rare, my husband's was more medium done. Overall the seasoning was done well, but the quality of the steaks left something to be desired. There was more than a fair amount of grisle; not what you expect for a $40 steak.

I want to put 2 stars do to how my mother and step dad where treated by their sever, they went there alittle underdressed, and got treated badly, people around them got asked soup, my parents did not, it has two stars mainly because they said the food tasted wonderful but sever was bad, and will not go back to that place do to how badly they got treated, also the severs where whispering about them and if I went there I wouldn't have ate, I wouldn't have been sick to my stomach. The sever also got made at my dad for not wanting wine, he tried to explain why he can't have it, but he didn't want to hear it, my dad is a bad epileptic so he can't drink nor smoke, so this place kinda deserved two stars I mean why would they go there if they can't afford to eat your food, because people there acted like they were homeless poor people not able...
