I’ve been a long-time fan of this restaurant and almost always order the slow-roasted prime rib at medium rare. It’s consistently been tender, tasty, and full of flavor. However, during my visit yesterday, I experienced something very different.

My usual prime rib arrived much rarer than normal and unusually tough to cut — something I’ve never encountered with this dish. For the first time in all my years of dining out, I sent a steak back to the kitchen.

When...

I stopped for lunch and ordered the All American Cheeseburger ($18). I got a good-sized burger with all the fixings and a generous portion of shoestring fries. Delicious! A small (8 oz.) beer was $8.Elija W. was very attentive.

Food was great! Wife had MAUI steak and was in love with the sauce. I went with the Filet Mignon with mac and cheese and both where really good! Service was great. Good place to go for special occasions.
