    So I was looking for a nice steak dinner for my stepmom and I and after a bit of searching, we settled on this spot and it was a jackpot. We were seated immediately and had our drink order taken. My stepmom and I had the ribeye and my dad got a baked potato and a salad. The steaks were massive and sooooo tender. Honestly one of the best meals in a while. Simple and just done right. Another highlight for the evening was our server Lylah, who was spot on and amazing. Her service and the food made for a memorable dining occasion. I finished the night with some cheesecake that satisfies a sweet tooth. Highly recommend this place, you won't be disappointed.

    I walked in to order to go. It looked like they don't really like it but anyway they agreed to it. The wait was pretty long so I ordered a beer at the bar, then half an hour later my order was handed to me in a plastic bag, even though I saw Client living with a nice Paper bag with their leftovers. when I got the bill I saw that they had a charge for "to go" so I waved the tip and when I got home, I saw that the salad was missing! so honestly, I'm glad I didn't leave any tip and by the way the salmon was very salty, I don't think I will go back over there ever.

    At first glance, we didn't think we would be able to be serviced with the parking lot compeltely full and cars parked around the side of the building. We were pleasantly surprised to be seated immediately. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We loved the atmosphere, which felt quant in spite of a huge amount of seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food here is absolutely excellent. We tried some delicious fried green tomatoes with a twist as an appetizer. Next, the Steak was melt-in-your-mouth and able to be cut with a fork. The side dishes were tasty and perfectly cooked. For dessert, we ordered some bread pudding which was equally yummy. Very rarely does a meal deliver on all points, but this was an amazing first experience. The awesome food had service to match. Our waitress was both attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. They're doing great things over there in Richmond Hill: an area where they could easily be mediocre and still successful as the only game in town. They don't skimp, and do a fantastic job. Don't get scared away but the premium steak option prices. We were able to find some real gems that were affordable and equally memorable. Give them a try!

    Been a long time since we were here so thought I would update the review Started with French onion soup. Amazing. The depth of flavor was so nice. Then I had the crusted halibut on risotto. So good and perfectly cooked. They have some great cooks here. Deb got the surf and turf special. Filet and scallops. All cooked so well. Steak cut like butter. Just an amazing place. Service and atmosphere are so nice. Haley took good care of us.

    I was excited to try this restaurant, as we are in town for our one year wedding anniversary. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Unfortunately, the only good thing was the ambiance and the dirty martini.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our waiter ignored our existence, didn't bother telling us any of the specials, walked away from the table when we were trying to order more drinks, and took my empty glass without asking if I wanted anything else, resulting in me having nothing to drink with dinner. The meatloaf was overly salty and the steak and mushrooms seemed like it was flavored with only black pepper. I was so hopeful, but sadly, incredibly disappointed.

    Really solid steak house on the outskirts of Savannah. [[HIGHLIGHT]]They have a nice southern ambiance and it's perfect for a nice night out.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Service was great, they came by at the right frequency. Really liked the fried green tomatoes as the appetizer. I also got the wet aged bone in strip steak. My steak was perfectly seasoned, just the exact amount of saltiness that I like and it was a good sized portion for the price. It chose the green beans and potatoes as my sides. Good complements to the steak and the green beans were very light. Really enjoyed it!

    The food here was incredible...The restaurant is situated off the interstate and easy to get to. It's in an area you wouldn't expect to have a fine dining establishment. But upon entering, the restaurant gives a welcoming feeling and is family friendly...the food is the best we have had in Richmond Hill, hands down. We have passed this place so many times. And now we will be making this a regular stop!

My granddaughter had the incorrect fish but agreed to eat it. The six other meals were good. The alligator bites were greasy and tasted fishy. The fried tomatoes were excellent.

Our waitress forgot to put our order in, so we ended up sitting there for over two hours waiting for food. Throughout the evening she would disappear for long periods of time, making it difficult to get any updates or assistance. When the meal finally started coming out, it arrived in stages instead of together. Sides didn't show up until we were nearly finished with our entrées, which made the whole experience feel very disorganized. We also ordered a beer and had to remind her about it because it never came. By the time it finally arrived, there really wasn't an opportunity to order another one. To make matters worse, the fried shrimp and scallops were over-breaded and disappointing. The corn was completely tasteless and added nothing to the meal. For a place that advertises seafood, (and Pricey $$$) we expected much better quality. Between the long wait, the poorly timed service, the lack of attention, and the underwhelming food, the entire dinner was frustrating. Sadly, this was not the experience we hoped for, and we won't be returning.
