When we showed up for our reservation for a party of 10 we were told butchers cut is actually closed for renovations. We ate at their sister restaurant and it was way more expensive and quality was poor. We left feeling very unsatisfied.

This restaurant is closed!! We arrived by uber and it is closed. Not fun adjusting for 10 business guests.

They confirmed our reservation but this place is closed for renovations. A sign told us to go next door for dinner but that was a joke so we dinner at Meze down the street and it was wonderful!

So I made reservations for this restaurant and when we showed up the place was closed down. So we to their sister restaurant next door and was not impressed with the food. The service was great. We asked medium rare and got medium. And the baked potato was Luke warm. One and done.

I was initially turned off. The first 2 items I tried to order were out (wine and a burger) and it was only 6 PM! However, Francesco was gracious and took care of us well. The flank steak was superb, but the potatoes that came with it had an odd texture. The plate was beautiful, but the tastes on the plate besides that steak were lackluster. We also got the chop salad. It was adequate but not spectacular. Overall, I am glad we went, but not necessarily go back again.

The ambience was fantastic. The food was absolutely delicious and the service was beyond immaculate. I had the Lobster Ravioli (the bartender recommended this and it did not disappoint), Caesar Salad, Medium rare Ribeye with chimichurri, Creme Brulee, and a Jalapeno Pineapple Margarita that was absolutely amazing. The most perfect dinner! I hope that you all check it and have a beautiful experience. Enjoy!

The ambiance was nice, service was wonderful. The side portions were great had the lobster mac and cheese and mashed potatoes. The 22 oz ribeye was more bone than steak, the 16 oz New York strip seemed to be more meat than the bigger ribeye. A little disappointing but it was a new steakhouse for us to try. The burgers are a top pick!!

Ambiance, service, food and drinks were excellent. Our reservation was for 4:00 and we were the first party there which is probably why it was really quiet with the exception of the great music playlist selection. Francesco took great care of us. The happy anniversary desert and prosecco were great finshing touches to us celebrating our 24th wedding anniversary. Thank you!

Came for restaurant week, the food and service were great. Website said it would validate parking if park in Horton Plaza, but front person said they do not.

We sat outside it was noisy in the evening. The time we came in the indoor was packed. The menu did not have a whole lot of items to choose from.

It's was ok. Not what I was expecting for an overall experience. I'll say that the steaks still rank lower than a Ruth's Chris steak. But, that said, the price reflects what we got. Not that it wasn't good, just a little disappointing.

Extremely disappointed in the dinner we had at this restaurant. My dad described his bone-in ribeye as “inedible”. Filet mignon was requested to be cooked medium and came out rare. Lobster Mac and cheese was far below average. Overall an extremly disappointing dinner.

Disappointing experience. We arrived at the beginning of dinner service while the restaurant was virtually empty. Service was very slow which didn't make sense. Our cocktails arrived after our apps, we had to ask for a steak knife after our steak was delivered, my lamb chops were missing the sauce listed on the menu. The restaurant week menu wasn't given to us until we asked for it and it felt to me and my date that we were judged as “cheap” for asking for it. That was our reason for going downtown for dinner on a Thursday. The kitchen also did not seem prepared to serve from the special menu. Our asparagus came out with our app. It was honestly very disorganized and we didn't feel welcome. The table seated next to us appeared to receive different serve than we did.

Trish

The food was just ok. The crab cake was dry and didn't taste like real crab, the salmon was overcooked. The service was impeccable and I would come back for drinks but not to eat

Terri

We were celebrating our 35th anniversary. The restaurant was perfect we were able to sit outside. The weather was nice, the hostess was friendly and helpful. The food was delicious. We shared oysters Rockefeller, asparagus and a delicious ribeye steak with a couple cocktails. Everyone was very friendly.
