The whole atmosphere was a total vibe; perfect for a night out!
A huge shoutout to Logan, Tyler, Christopher & Julian who took care of us, their service was amazing and truly made the meal even better. I’ll definitely be back!
Our first table rocked like a rocking chair — I genuinely felt seasick just sitting there. The place has that weird mix of fast-food bones with fancy tablecloths thrown on top. The booth seats were stained and felt downright dirty.
The menu prices are quite high, I wanted to give it a fair chance and not judge a book by its cover.
We started with the Meatballs. They were crispy on the outside and tasted like basic seasoned ground beef — nothing like the ribeye they’re supposed to be made from. Only 4 small meatballs on a tiny scoop of generic mashed potatoes, topped with some peanuts and a sweet soy-type sauce. This appetizer cost over $20.
For the main, I ordered the Ribeye with Shrimp. When it arrived, the steak looked long and thin — more like a sirloin than a proper ribeye. (I even uploaded a photo to Grok, and it agreed it looked nothing like a classic ribeye.) After a couple of chewy bites, it definitely tasted like sirloin, not ribeye. It came with just 3 regular-sized shrimp and more of that same plain mashed potatoes. This entrée was $49.
I ordered a Watermelon Margarita, but they were out, so I switched to a Paloma. It tasted like canned grapefruit juice mixed with bottom-shelf vodka — very disappointing.
Our server disappeared after taking our order and never came back. I finally flagged down a manager, who removed the ribeye charge. A second manager later stopped by to ask about the experience and insisted that was their ribeye and they don’t serve sirloin. Fair enough, but you can’t call something a ribeye, charge ribeye prices, and serve something that chews and tastes like sirloin.
Overall, this was a very underwhelming and overpriced experience. Between the worn-out interior, shaky tables, dirty booths, lackluster food, absent service, and questionable quality on premium items, I won’t be going back. I do not recommend this location.
If you’re wanting an upscale experiance there are a lot better choices in the area, there are much better options that deliver better value and consistency.
We glazed over the menu nothing jumped out as really appetizing looking or sounding so we only ordered an avocado egg roll, the sauce made the egg roll without the sauce the egg roll was pretty bland and $20 for 2 egg rolls. We also ordered 1 drink each I ordered a dragonfruit margarita which was amazing and my mom ordered another alcoholic beverage I believe it was a passion margarita. We just had the egg rolls and went to another restaurant to eat. Overall drinks were amazing, sauce for egg rolls great, service was great.
What really made the night stand out, though, was the service. Our server, Dakota, was amazing — super attentive, friendly, and genuinely enthusiastic about the menu. She gave great recommendations and checked in at the perfect times without ever hovering. You could tell she actually enjoys what she does, which makes such a difference.
Manager Tyler also stopped by our table to make sure everything was going well, and that extra touch really showed how much the team values their guests. He was professional, personable, and clearly runs a tight ship because everything flowed smoothly the entire evening.
Overall, this place absolutely exceeded expectations. Great food, great vibes, and even better service thanks to Tyler and Dakota. I’ll definitely be coming back — and recommending it to everyone I know!
But honestly, the service was even better than the food. Bianca was our server, and she went above and beyond the entire time we were there. She was so warm, friendly, and attentive, always checking on us and making sure we had everything we needed without us even having to ask. She gave great recommendations and made us feel genuinely cared for, not rushed at all.
Nowadays it is very rare to find service that thoughtful and positive. She truly made our night special, and my friend and I both said we’ll definitely be coming back because of her. Im telling you this young woman deserves the biggest raise ever. If you go, ask for Bianca , she’ll make your experience 10/10 I promise!
