Great spot for a quiet dinner. The food was good, but I felt the portion sizes didn’t quite match the prices.

I was insanely surprised by the food quality here. We didn't really know what to expect but they had an amazing steak. I have paid double and been half as impressed. We continue to talk about how great the food was here. I had the ribs and baked potato which was also very good. Looking forward to returning for sure!

Fries were, well, potatoes that were fried.
Baked potato was a potato that was, well... baked.
But the ribs were freakin' awesome!!!
Staff was friendly, atmosphere was nice though a bit tight, and I took food to go.
Don't live in Mobile, but I'll definitely be back here when I next visit, because... those ribs!!!

I've eaten at this chain in Spanish Fort and enjoyed it. In Mobile, not so. I could tell that my plate had sat in the window for a while. The top of my food was almost crispy, and my plate was scalding hot. However, under my food, the plate was slightly warm.
Didn't get refills on drinks without having to flag down the server. My husband's medium well steak was warm pink in the center. AND, it was a thin steak. How can you not cook it medium well?

Best steak I’ve ever had in my life. No joke. 110% recommend this place. And the prices were amazing. Two adults getting full steaks and an app only being $80 today is insane.

I’m really puzzled by the high ratings this place has received. Based on my experience, both the quality of the food and the service didn’t meet expectations.
The steaks were a major letdown. The filet, which should be tender, was tough and lacked flavor, and it seems the kitchen may have overcooked it in an attempt to tenderize it. Unfortunately, all of the steaks arrived well done, despite specifying different temperatures. The ribeye was particularly disappointing—thin, overcooked, and tasteless.
On the sides, my potato was warm but not hot, while my guest’s was served cold. The spinach and artichoke dip was fine but nothing special. The salad had almost no dressing, making it dry and bland.
To try and improve the meal, I ordered a side of crawfish cream sauce for $6. When it arrived, it came in a tiny 2-ounce ramekin (as shown in the picture). For that price, I expected something more substantial, but what I got was watery sauce with a single tiny crawfish and almost no flavor. That $6 charge for a tiny ramekin was honestly highway robbery.
The service was equally underwhelming. Our server was inattentive, taking longer than expected to bring items like drinks, utensils, and even the check.
The price point for the meals is well above what the quality and service justify. For what you're paying, you're not getting a better experience than what you'd find at other restaurants offering similar prices—where the quality of the food and the level of service are far superior.
Overall, I would not recommend this restaurant based on my experience. With so many great options out there, this one simply didn’t deliver.

Great eats at a nice local place, was about what you would expect price wise. Servers where good, an I saw what was either the owner or manager handle any issues that where raised by guests personally. Well done!
