Granted we were told there was a fee and we used their plates and silverware. The server even was given a slice. One relative insisted we needed a cake. Smh. Service was good.

From the outside, it had a large log-cabin type of appearance - but the strongest feature here was the atmosphere and the beautiful lighting and stone work that awaits you when you walk through the front door. It was truly an amazing visual experience to see! We started with a round of drinks. I had the Old Fashioned (see picture) and was honestly quite disappointed with it as it seemed to be nothing but straight bourbon and possibly a slight dash of bitters. My wife ordered a Margarita and both of us thought it tasted quite good. For dinner, my wife and I decided to split the 16 oz Ribeye (see picture) while she added the salad (see picture) and we shared the Popovers (see picture). I really liked the Popovers and the flavored butter that came with them. My wife enjoyed the flavor of the salad, but didn't like that it had to be cut at the table to eat it. The Ribeye was above average in flavor and was prepared as ordered - and the Cheesy Potatoes (see picture) were fantastic, so rich, creamy and delicious. Last but not least, we ordered a piece of Turtle Cheesecake (see picture) and that quite frankly was likely the highlight of my meal - I thought it was wonderful and would highly recommend that you end your meal with a piece of it yourself!
