Kim O.Kim Olavarria: The In Season hot dish is incredible. The spicy walnuts with goat cheese were off the hook. Instead of the recommended sirloin, I added the garlic shrimp and added Sriracha. Oh my is all I can say :)

Ashley R.Ashley Rose: Download the app "roast" to get your 11th bowl free and to skip the line!

Melissa T.Melissa T: Always so disorganized! Your best bet is to order a hot dish right off the menu. Making your own or getting a cold bowl adds 10 minutes to your wait time!

CharlieCharlie: I was put off by my first waiter's attitude and unfamiliarity with wine! On a second visit, I really enjoyed the experience! The porterhouse for two is huge! And the Canadian bacon is delicious!

HinterHinter: Top3 best steaks i've ever had. Glass wine not so good

David K.David Kearns: The Surf and Turf was pretty good. The sides are bland, the seating is uncomfortable, and the service leaves something to be desired. The prices are a bit extreme. Basically $40 a plate and up.
