Must try is the prime rib sandwich. Thinly sliced with caramelized onions and horseradish cream sauce. It was the best I’ve had and I do lots of traveling around the country. It’s number one.
The day before I had the fish and chips and it is my number 3 of all time.
If you’re staying at the Embassy Suites, they give you a $25 so-called gift card for this place.

Aging large restaurant & bar in prime location; Sat night and sorta empty. Good ok, not great. Service poor in general. For some reason my friend and I were seated at a tiny little table in a corner when there were massive tables and booths available. Go figure.
Wonderful experience the food was amazing and the service first class can’t fault this at all just wish I lived here to be able to enjoy it again
