I attended dinner here with 8 girlfriends (while on a ladies trip) and found the experience to be sub-par.
The two earned stars are for the beautiful dining room and the drinks. It is definitely a lovely, intimate space with nice lighting and a good vibe. Everyone in my party ordered at least one drink and we found them all to be delicious! I had the kickin’ mule. It was *chef’s kiss* lovely.
My party sat at the bar while we waited for a table. The seating was very nice and comfortable and the bartender was a delight.
We were sat at a table, with, albeit, a very green waitress. I wouldn’t describe our table as complicated, besides needing a couple of minutes to look over the menu. However, the waitress seemed very put off, nervous, and irritated by having to serve us. Since she was so new, perhaps it would have been better for a more experienced waiter to handle our table or help talk her through the process.
The food took a very long time to arrive and when it did, it was horribly overcooked and/or flavorless. One girlfriend received a sweet potato that, even with the skin on, looked like it had been boiled and then ran through a mammogram machine (find it pictured with the Parmesan grouper). I’m not sure what the “bourbon” in the steak sandwich is, but it was dry and flavorless. I’m usually part of the clean plate club, but had to leave this one behind. The chicken kabobs certainly had flavor. It wasn’t my particular tastes, but my friend enjoyed the unexpected taste (cardamom?). The food we liked the best was the fried brussel sprouts. They were really, really good. We were riding a high off the tasty drinks, but in the car, we agreed that overall it wasn’t a great experience.
Our table dropped well over $300 on food and drinks at this establishment, however the service and taste was lower quality than an Applebee’s. Certainly not worth the price.
To management, I would suggest auditing your menu. The flavor is lacking and not cooked well.
The wait staff could use more training, specifically when handling a larger party.

My wife and I enjoyed our meal here with our family. The staff was super friendly and attentive. Great atmosphere and food was great too. The ribeye have great flavor. Cons: I did think it was a little overpriced and the salad needs some work. Overall, we had a great experience and plan to be back soon!

Wish I could give zero stars. I went here with with a friend. And we had high hopes. We left in shambles. After we squeezed into a tiny booth, our experience began by being told that they were of All Salads, Lamb chops, and Brussels… we ordered wine that ended up being warm and sour and a mystery drink that neither we nor our server knew the ingredients of (it was replaced with moscato) we received our first appetizer of crab cakes in about 30 minutes. They were minuscule and the bottoms were burnt but the insides were undercooked. We received our second appetizer after I asked our server what happened to it. She probably forgot about it bc she was more concerned with smoking her vape in the corner of the restaurant where we could see it! It was supposed to be seared ahi tuna. It was stone cold and rubbery. The presentation was horrible. I don’t even think it was tuna at this point … that was it for us. We canceled the rest of the order and asked for the check. We talked to the manager Bobby who said that he and the restaurant had higher standards. Unfortunately the standards were low today. Although he seemed a bit distracted and uninterested in our concerns, he did comp the ticket. Over all the menu was overpriced and the food and drinks were horrible. We also noticed an employee walking around the with street clothes and a bonnet on. Save your time and your money and stay away!

Excellent experience, great lunch special and Emily made the suggestion and treated me like I was the reason she came to work today. Well worth your heavily taxed dollars. Thank you Ms Emily…..you made my day better

This was our second try at this restaurant. The first time the steak was cooked to wrong temperatures and quality of food was overall poor. We tried lunch today and it took 30 minutes to put an order in after being seated. We were also served a raw burger by accident. Meatball sub was $15 and served on what tasted like last night’s dinner roll. Both times no manager ever visited the table. Super disappointing! Prices are for an upscale steakhouse but food quality and cooking are levels below your chain steakhouse. One star because the waitress was nice. I would have tried to give constructive feedback but the manager did not come by despite the issues we had.

Sirloin is great. My favorites are the shrimp and grits and the Chicago Burger with fries. Relaxed upscale atmosphere. Staff is attentive.

The Catalina Steak Skewer was good, the burger standard, and the crab cakes were not bad but too sweet for my taste.
The seating is cramped, and the close quarters make for a noisy dining atmosphere.
The servers were very nice and attentive.
The menu is quite expensive.
Not a terrible experience, but we won’t be back mainly because it just wasn’t worth the price.

I brought my boss “COO” of a major organization in Anderson to dinner because of the customer service on my first visit there. We made reservations at 6:30 they were not ready till 7:00 and actually stated that we did not have a 6:30 reservation. We emphasized this was a special occasion and drove over 40 minutes as our first experience was excellent. They placed in the bar, music was loud and they even moved us because the servers stated it was not their assigned server. In short this will be our last time. Poor customer service and the steaks were not the quality they were the first time. Just mediocre. I would not recommend this place. Based on my experience I feel liked we were punked. Smoking mirrors.
