Went on Thanksgiving Day , we ordered cocktails Aged Tropic Old Fashioned and Whistlepig Barrel Aged Smoked Old Fashioned. Both drinks were amazing but the Whistlepig Old Fashioned is the best. Tried the Chipotle Steak Bits and Crab Croquettes very tasty. The set Thanksgiving menu was fabulous. (Key lime pie❤️)So far the best as for Going out on Thanksgiving. I will definitely be back to try their steaks and seafood platter hope it doesn't disappoint. Thanks to the amazing Chef and staff who worked on Thanksgiving holiday !

They were able to seat a table of five where we could talk and enjoy the food and beverages. Server was attentive and service was great. Steaks came out juicy and tasty. Clam chowder was really really good. Ambiance and staff really make this a go to spot.

My hubby and I had such a wonderful meal at Birk's that we were already talking about our next visit. From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed like old friends and seated right away at a very comfortable table. Our server Hannah was an absolute gem. She was warm, attentive, and somehow always appeared at the exact moment we needed something. Her team was just as great and present when needed without ever hovering. I ordered the small filet with a lobster tail and it came with perfectly cooked broccolini and dreamy mashed potatoes. Every bite was delicious. My hubby ordered the seafood pasta and this is where the magic happened. There was no cream sauce pasta on the menu, but when he asked, Hannah checked with the chef who happily created one just for him. It was so thoughtful and the dish turned out fabulous. He also loved his IPA and we finished with a little Key lime tart that was spot on. Since we were celebrating a special occasion, the staff surprised us with a slice of cheesecake. We were so full that we brought it home, but the gesture made our day. Everything from the service to the food to the warm atmosphere was wonderful. There is plenty of parking, although there is a sign reminding guests not to leave valuables in the car. Wise words in any parking lot. We will definitely be back.

I had made a couple of special requests as I usually do regarding table & server preference. Upon arriving I the hostess started to direct us to an unrequested area until a server who knows us told her our preference. After being seated a server approached us but was not the one we requested. She was very gracious about switching which was very much appreciated. None of this is a really huge deal except that our requests are normally granted without issue. The rest of the evening went very well as dinner and the service was excellent.

This time the prime rib was too rare and the filet was undercooked. Usually the prime rib medium is warmer and not so bloody and red from my previous visits. Service was great as usual.

Last night, I had reservations for two for dinner around 6:15. However, we decided to eat at the bar and watch sports, which was great. The atmosphere was pleasant and the food was delicious. We both had the prime rib.(end cut) and a smoked old-fashioned to drink. We ordered the “Americana” which includes a soup or salad and dessert. The portions are generous. Most of all, we enjoy the staff that have been there for years and make the experience that much more meaningful and enjoyable.

The steak was juicy on the inside, but the outside was extremely charred. This is probably the first time I've seen a steak burned that dark. It looked like the pan hadn't been cleaned and had layers of burnt residue left from repeated use.

Overall, the portion size offered great value, especially from an Asian perspective. However, it wasn't enough for me to want to return.

Been here many many times whenever we crave steaks. This restaurant is tucked in the office buildings. Parking lot is at the back of the building.

Every time when we come, we ask for Dennis. He's the best server you can ever get. He's friendly, polite and proactive. Sometimes I don't have to ask for refills, he already is ahead of the game and bring me my drink or whatever I was about to ask for. I don't come without him serving us.

To start, theeir bread is very good. It comes out hot and soft. We can't stop eating it before our meals.

Their appetizers are good too. We usually get their olive oil poached shrimps and fried calamari. You don't see the olive oil poached shrimps any other places and they're good.

Their wood smoked prime rib is the bomb! They used to only serve this during the weekend awhile back. (We had come before during the weekend and was disappointed it got sold out). Now they have this daily. If it's your first time here, you gotta try their prime rib. You can taste the smoked flavor and it's not over-powering. It tastes much better than a regular prime rib you get elsewhere.

Their steaks are excellent too. We usually get the filet mignon and the ribeye. They look it very well and it comes with 2 sides.

Their pork chop is awesome, so is their sea bass and salmon. You just got to come and try them all.

Now comes to the desserts. Their cheesecake is surprisingly good. It's light and fluffy. We really enjoyed it

They also have private rooms for booking for gatherings or events. We booked one of their private rooms for family event before and got to customize the menu with the help of Robert (manager).

Come support this local business that serve awesome food and services. You won't be disappointed.

Staff was superior. Cocktails were great. The oysters Rockefeller were cold, bland and way overpriced. The presentation was very poor. The prime rib looked cooked to perfection, but the first, 2nd and 3rd bites were cold. Sent back to be warmed. The vegetables and creamed spinach were the stars of dinner. The garlic mash was blah and boring. I wont be going back baes upon food presentation and overall dinner quality.

The food was not bad but the steak was slightly overcooked and the lobster was perfect on an order of steak and lobster. Also ordered a chowder that never came. There is plenty of parking and this restaurant is easy to find, but it's kind of tucked away in the middle of a random business park. I don't think I'll be back especially given the price.

Absolutely Spectacular by steak house. Every meal & course has a distinctive Smokey flavor, that’s out of this world. Ines was an exceptions server! They have a great window list with 30-year Tawny Ports.

The food was very good and everyone was happy. It was a busy night but that did not impact the service quality. The server was attentive and did a great job.
