I went here for my anniversary and It was an incredible experience. They decorated the table for us, the servers were friendly and amazing. It was the best meal I've ever had in my life. Everything was cooked perfectly, the seafood and steak was absolutely delicious. If you're going out for a special occasion this is definitely the place to go.

1st visit for my birthday dinner! Fantastic and Amber was a great server.

7 of us went for a birthday/ Mother’s Day celebration and wow we were all very impressed, my tomahawk steak was out of this world. The specials are expensive but worth it for a special occasion and can easily be split between 2 people. Both quantity and quality top notch will be back.

Food was delicious and very large portions the drinks were great! Service definitely could be a little bit better but over all everything was great!!

Went for the prime rib special. Everything was great BUT the prime rib. Toughest I’ve had. Waitress said she would inform the chef, yet nothing was acknowledged after that. Expect to wait a long time, service extremely slow.

Inappropriate Pricing:
Nice-looking place. Decent service and good food. But FAR, FAR too expensive for the quality of the food. It isn’t gourmet; it is standard recipes done solidly. It was absurdly expensive yet I’ve had better food elsewhere for far less money. You’ve got a nice place and nice food, but just price it more appropriately for what you’re providing people.

Everything about this place was absolutely amazing! The food was some of the best food I’ve ever had! Everything & I mean everything was cooked to perfection & best part it was fresh not the frozen garbage you get at the chain restaurants! The owner personally came to our table to visit with us a couple times to make sure we were enjoying our meal! This place is definitely my family’s new favorite & we would encourage anyone to try it! Thank you for one of the best meals I’ve ever had Nick Stoner!?

After reading so many great reviews, and seeing so many postings of their incredible dishes, I decided to treat my husband to dinner there for his birthday. We made reservations, and in doing so, I let them know it was a birthday dinner, and our first time dining there. Upon arrival, we were quickly seated; there were only a two other tables at that time, and no one at the bar. It took the waitress over 5 minutes to give us menus, told us the specials were on the board and she quickly walked away. Several minutes later, she took our drink order. When she came back, I asked about the the tomahawk, and she ran off to reserve one for my husband-never mentioning anything more about what it might be served with, etc. She came back, quickly took the rest of our order (I had the ribeye, lobster tail, scallops and shrimp) and ran off again. She was curt, unfriendly and unseen most of the time. The bread was hot and very good. The appetizer, mozzarella rounds, were cold-but the marinara was good, at least. The salad was served with what we assumed was a house ranch; she never mentioned it at all-just showed up with it, and you guessed it-dropped it and ran off. Once our meals arrived-we didn't see her again until we were finished. The tomahawk, ordered medium, came medium-well, while my ribeye was spot on. The seafood was tender and delicious; however one tiny lemon wedge and no butter, really didn't do it for me. When I was finished I needed a box-which I said I'd need two pls., and she only brought one. It still wasn't very busy; empty bar, only 5 tables. The bartender filled in for her a few times-asking if we'd like another drink, and another box. She also brought out a complimentary birthday dish of ice cream for my husband. While she was pleasant enough, I expected more from the waitstaff overall-including both interaction and attire. I felt like they were feeding rabid wildlife-just throw 'em the food and RUN! Additionally, we didn't realize see-through leggings, crocks and a T-shirt were in fashion in a higher-end restaurant like that. For a whopping $400 for two people; appetizer, 2 drinks each and 2 meals, I expected at least friendly and attentive waitstaff. I guess with a 20% gratuity included it doesn't matter if the waitstaff is decent or not-they get a very good tip for doing basically nothing either way. Oh, and don't forget the nearly $15 fee for using a credit card. I'm kind of surprised they didn't charge us for the ice in my drink. Overall, a far cry from the experience I expected. We won't go back.

The phone message says go to Facebook, so I did because nobody was picking up the phone . Last time the Facebook was updated was last year . We drove to the restaurant only to see 2 people out front smoking and the closed sign blinking . They said they were closed for a private party , five cars in the parking lot at 6pm on a Saturday. We went somewhere else, first time there and a get a cold shoulder, no message on answering machine or Facebook stating they were closed for private party . I would give a zero if I could . I don’t recommend this place to eat .

Parking: Dirt parking, muddy if raining.

Walked in on a Thursday night no reservation for a four top. The two woman covering the bar, running food and taking orders were busy. Took about 10 min to seat us. There were plenty of tables but none were prepped. Took another 20 min to get waters, drink orders in. The food was fine. They have their chops listed as MP which is fine. However.. there’s not a steakhouse in Manhattan that charges 70$ for a 7oz filet. 20% mandatory tip put us above 400$ for dinner. I have zero issue blowing hundreds of dollars on an amazing meal but this wasn’t it. It took over two hours for dinner, not because it was a curated meal, because the food crawled out of the kitchen and the servers were on their own time. It’s nice that they are trying to make a fine dining experience but you do need to price your menu for what you are not what you want to be.

Oh, and make a beer and wine list. 101.
