My waitress, Jacqueline, was so very sweet. She kept my drinks full and got me extra plates. Don't listen to the hateful comments on here. This place had great, fresh food with awesome service.

Now for the food - We ordered the maple glazed salmon. The 22oz ribeyes with 2 lb lobster tail as well as a side of truffle mushrooms paired with wine. The steak was perfectly tender and cooked medium rare, the lobster was succulent, with rich buttery flavor and tenderness. The salmon was cooked juicy not over done and tenderness to show it was light flaky how a plave know for food and presentation perfectly owned their reputation on one first time visit. The mushrooms were amazing we were so full we could not even order dessert just so full.

Over all 4 out of 5 stars becasue they could improve some aspects on my opinion but if the service required searching for a waiter or waiting to be check up on then it could have been 5 stars.

The grounds and view from the restaurant are truly spectacular. Rolling hills and canyons. Details in design are paid attention to here and that shows. Overall, the food was good but not totally outstanding. My favorite was the beet salad. I would recommend the steak too, but the short rib was tough and over powered by the apple cider vinegar it was marinated in. The sides were solid, typical steakhouse style- buttery corn and roasted Brussel sprouts. Washing this dinner down with $24 Old Fashions was steep (if you want them smoked there's an additional $4 charge) and caused us to imbibe in 1 drink each. The kids meals were good with standard options including chicken tenders, but I'd pass on the surprise sundae. It wasn't very exciting--- the surprise was whipped cream on top. Maybe just call it a sundae. Our waiter was friendly and attentive. Consider booking a table by the window to take in the view and ordering the beet salad.
