The smash burger and the Chilean Sea Bass were excellent.

Since I've never seen this before, it was quite delightful!

We had a wonderful dinner at this restaurant last night. The food was excellent--creative,…read moreflavorful, and full of interesting combinations that made the meal memorable. The waitstaff were friendly, attentive, and professional throughout the evening. They made us feel welcome and took great care of our table. My only real complaint was the noise level. There was a musician performing in the bar area, which is a nice touch in theory. We were fortunately seated a good distance away in the dining room, which was a relief at first. However, as our dinner went on, the music became significantly louder, making it difficult to hold a normal conversation across the table. For a dining experience, it would be great if the restaurant considered volume control or acoustics so that guests can still enjoy their meal and chat comfortably. Overall, I would definitely return for the outstanding food and service.

We ordered a ravioli starter, spring rolls, and a beautiful shrimp dish they were all delicious. We ordered surf and turf for our main meal.

He was patient when we asked for a repeat of the specials. He took great care of us without being too much. It was a great night!

We had to ask what the dinner specials were. Forget about asking what beers are on tap. That resulted in a reply of "what are you looking for?" Dinner came.

For a couple that works hard for their money and has two kids at home and don't get a date night very often, the experience fell short of our expectations. It was disappointing.

Some places have the middle of the bun filled but the ends pretty sparse, but that is not the case here! Every single bite was filled with steak and cheese. It was beyond delicious and ranks as one of THE best I've ever had. It was crave worthy for sure! I actually couldn't finish and had the rest for dinner. Our server was a lovely young girl who was extremely attentive. She came back multiple times to check on us and get us soda refills. Once we finished, we sat and talked a while, and she kept coming back to check on us even after we paid. It wasn't crowded, and she told us no rush. It is a very comfortable atmosphere and even has a separate dining room area on the other side of the bar area. I am usually not a fan of eating in a bar area, but the setup here is great. I was perfectly happy eating at a high top in the bar.

In response to comment: this review is strictly of your yelp page and the photos you provided NOT of the place itself --- i also don't want your customers to think this is the case of your physical location I want to come and check the lounge but the images provided seem to be geared more towards the male gaze rather than the location and products you offer. I was hoping to see more of the physical location so i can get an understanding of the ambiance and potentially suggest it to others.
