Nick Carter: Lobster bisque, Kobe steak, cream spinach, corn mash, and white chocolate banana cream pie. Yum.
Wendy Stone-Bowman: Best steak in ATL. Period.
Deeni: Steak to die for, good red w selection, loved the bananana cream pie. Service is exceptional. Those lobster tails r hugee-just meat!
Lizabet King: Over hyped and over priced. If you get the key lime pie beware it's "ice box" style which apparently means you need a steak knife to even cut through the crust.
360 Media: Grab a table on the rooftop and order the snow crab boil! Great patio with an awesome skyline view. -MS
Tiffany Taylor: Really great place, the LIBATIONS are on point! I personally love their scallops and white fish! The veggies are very fresh and cooked correctly! I love this place both locations!
