You are the epitome of honesty, integrity and always provide an outstanding buying experience. Thank you for your follow up, seldom found in today's business environment.

I always expect a high level of customer service which is seldom received in today's market, however, you never fail to exceed my expectations. Thank you Michael Gregory Giovannelli

I am a custom knife maker. I feel like it is my responsibility to operate with enough integrity…read morethat if you give me money for a knife, I will hand you a knife. If I don't hand it to you, it is my responsibility to have someone else hand it to you. Earlier this year I had a knife lost in the mail. I did not fulfill my responsibility so I made another knife and made sure the customer got what he bought from me. That is my job, to operate with integrity and do right by my customers. I tell this story to preface my experience with Knife Purveyor, who does not operate with the same level of integrity, I would say zero integrity. I ordered a knife from them on Monday. I paid $30 for Fed Ex two day shipping. It should have arrived Wednesday. It did not. There was a confirmation photo of my package sitting on someone else's porch, but not mine. The person that Knife Purveyor contracted to hand me my knife failed in their task. I caught this within minutes and called Fed Ex. I was told "walk around and see if you can find it and if not, have the seller open a claim." This was completely unacceptable. When ordering from Knife Purveyor, you have an opportunity to pay extra for signature required. To me, it is my responsibility to have a secure delivery area for when the package is delivered, if not secure and someone may take it, then I should pay for that feature. I knew I would be home and I was, two minutes after it said it was delivered I opened the door. I did not pay for sig delivery because I knew I would be there and there would not be a problem with theft. I guess I should have thought that decision out as a person with zero integrity would operate and paid extra. Instead, I entrusted my purchase to someone that has no care about customer satisfaction and chooses an agent to deliver the product that just hands it to anyone they see. I brought this to their attention immediately. While friendly people on the phone, they are unhelpful and have no desire to do the right thing. They blamed me for not choosing signature required. If they would have said on the site "we will use any loophole we can to blame someone else for the problem" then I would have checked that box and paid, or not have done business with them at all. I lose here because I didn't fully understand the type of person I was dealing with. I told him he could get $100 basic insurance from Fed Ex and he shouldn't have to pay the $30 Fed Ex fee so refund that to me. I am still out $75 but I got something back. If doing business with this person after reading this, then I wish you luck. Just remember, when dealing with Knife Purveyor, operate from a position of "Buyer Beware" and do everything in your power to protect yourself, because they don't care about you. After doing some research, they changed their policy today so it appears this situation is my fault. Luckily, you can't hide from archive.org and you can see that yesterday their policy claimed responsibility until the package arrived at the address the customer gave. Do with this info as you will. I don't care about the money now, I want everyone to know about this company, their business practices, and their lack of integrity.

It was private and could seat around 25-30 people. The Caesar salad was one of the best I have ever had. I wish I had opted for just a double portion of this instead of the steak. I guess they are well known for a smoky flavored steak ? I didn't like it. When a sauce is presented before your steak arrives that is never a good thing. The steak was cooked fine although I have also never been presented with a filet that had been sliced. Sides were a dry bowl of spinach the table shared and mashed potatoes. MEH. The crème brûlée was the star !! The raspberry compote surprise at the bottom of the dish was decadent !! I loved this dessert. Maybe we will return for salad and dessert ? They have an extensive wine list as well.

The service was top notch as well. All of the wait staff were friendly, knowledgeable of the menu, and took care of our large group well. I started with the Old Fashioned Flight, with their Aged Old Fashioned, one with Old Forester 1920, and one with Buffalo Trace that they said was their restaurants pick. The first 2 were really good, but I think they gave me the wrong drink, because the one with BT didn't taste like it had any bourbon in it at all. But the waiter switched it out for me with a Tequila OF, which was really good. They brought out two salads for the table, and their Cesar Salad was really good, the dressing was so good. I ordered the Australian Lamb Chops, which were amazing. Simply seasoned, but done so well. I ordered a side of Chimichurri sauce, and it was not needed at all. My wife had the meatloaf, which was delicious, and the group all enjoyed their meals and drinks. We left full and happy. I definitely recommend you add this place to you list if you've never been.

The restaurant is beautiful, cozy, and comfortable, and the hosts and servers have been excellent every time. We made reservations once through OpenTable and once by phone -- both were easy, and reservations are probably a good idea since they stay busy. The food has been great both times. On our first visit, my husband and I shared the ribeye and loved the flavor. Their Caesar salad is also surprisingly unique and delicious with broccolini instead of a traditional Caesar style. I also really appreciated being able to order a single Rockefeller oyster since most places require a half dozen minimum. The second time we visited for an early Mother's Day dinner with my son and shared the off-menu tomahawk, which was excellent as well. The only consistent issue we've had has been steak temperature. We usually order medium, but their interpretation of medium has come out significantly more rare than expected. The first time, we had to send the steak back, and they asked us to identify only the undercooked portions to recook separately, which was a bit awkward and something we hadn't experienced before at a steakhouse. The second time, we tried being more specific and even requested an approximate temperature around 140°, but the steak came out closer to medium-well. That said, the flavors, atmosphere, and service have been so enjoyable that we'll absolutely keep coming back. We're just hoping we can eventually land on the perfect medium steak on a future visit.

While at first the prices may seem high, the items they are selling are high quality and prices are in fact fairly typical for what they have in store. Now one thing that was surprising, typically when stores sell their own branded items, they are cheaper, however here it seemed to be the opposite with many items. The staff were friendly, but not the most knowledgeable. They were definitely trying to help, but at the same time they appeared to be incredibly busy, even though the store was mostly empty, running back and forth from the back grabbing items and helping customers pickup items before being able to help out others.
