A little pickier probably, bring that we are constantly travelling to find the best restaurants. Food- we had the lobster in butter, very little lobster but rich so shareable. The table side Caesar in the parm wheel was entertaining a decent tasting. We also shared the shrimp cocktail but the cocktail sauce tasted more like ketchup than anything else. Then we had the ribeye which was flavoured very well, but slightly undercooked with quite a bottle of gristle (not the delicious melted fat you want) but it was fine. The potatoes daphnoise were very tasty, but we ordered the asparagus too which was dry and a waste of $8 per side. Ambiance- this place has potential but the open seating doesn't feel cozy. Lights a bit bright for a romantic steakhouse. Quiet enough though. Service- our waiter was a nice guy but he would've suited working at the Olive Garden better. Asked us if we would need desert within the few first bites of our steaks, and when we replied “no” he brought us the check without even offering a second drink ? Probably won't go back unless we were at the casino anyway, then we may.

Service was good but had to ask for a beverage menu. Food was not awful but edible. My side dish was saturated in oil and no taste. The salmon was pan seared and lacked flavor. The crab cake appetizer was fishy tasting and salty. Definitely the worst tasting dinner at a fine dining restaurant I've ever been to, including other casino fine dining. Definitely would not recommend this restaurant.

I have done times in the past and had a wonderful experience. However, this time was different.Ordered a medium fillet and like it pink but instead it was well done on the outer 1/4 inch perimeter and over leak crusted with little to no seasoning. The size of the were inconsistent at our table The same item ordered. Mine was half the size of another person in our party.The French onion soup was very good. Not salty and a good flavor. The cheese was not burnt.The wedge salad was more like a few pieces of lettuce excessively drowned in the blue cheese. I love blue cheese, but I could barely taste the lettuce because it was too excessive.Shrimp cocktail was on the verge of spoiling. They were warm, limp, discolored slimy, and fell to the taste. We told the waitress, and she seemed as if it was more of a bother than a legitimate concern. This was concerning because of the risk for food poisoning. In the past, we have always had nice, firm, chilled, cold, and non-spoiled shrimp. This was a major letdown.The asparagus was a bit bland. No seasoning added to that either. Concerning since you do pay considerable amount for your side dishesWaitress was not as tentative as she has been in the past. In fact, I accidentally used my steak knife for the salad and she expected me to wipe the blue cheese off instead of getting a knife which you would expect afford to five star restaurant.The meal is so disappointing that I will not go back.

Had a wonderful dinner. Brian was our waiter and he made us feel welcomed. We had the filet and pappardelle noodles and beef. Excellent. The lone distraction of the evening was having to walk through a smoke filled casino floor to get to the restaurant.

Our server seemed annoyed for some reason and not very concerned that I didn't care for my entree Beef tips and pappardell noodles, which were perfect, but the sauce was very spicy. Very nice atmosphere and very comfortable ?.

The service was great the food not so much . The Loster Bisque was horrible no taste and the minute I was done eating it immediately gave me stomach pains and a stomach ache. It was absolutely horrible . Not sure if it was outdated or what the issue was. But I don’t recommend it.

The service had a sluggish pace, yet the ambiance was delightful. Despite mixed reviews, we decided to give this place a second chance. Unfortunately, my husband found his steak to be disappointingly thin, and the mashed potatoes, for the second visit in a row, appeared to have been left under the warming lamps for too long. Uncertain if a third visit is in our future.

The food and service were absolutely amazing. First time there and I will definitely be back. Had amazing filet mignon, 2 soups, another main dish and a bottle of wine, only $138!! Absolute bargain.

Relaxing, enjoyable atmosphere, top notch filet minion, excellent table-side prepared Caesar Salad, very good martini, Dauphinoise Potatoes were nicely presented but were disappointingly served at room temperature. Excellent personable service, other than, when informed of the room temperature potatoes our server stated she would let “her” know to heat them more in the future. Didn't do anything to improve our less than properly prepared potatoes. Overall, very enjoyable experience and we will eat there again.

Haven't been to LBV since before the covid closures, and were not disappointed. Food was great, service as well, and considering most steak restaurant, very reasonable. Will definitely return.
The service was poor and my $40 steak was charred black on the outside. We waited almost 15 minutes before we were even offered water. I recognize staff do not have control over the “structure” of the restaurant, but the smoking is disgusting and having to walk through smoke to enter restaurant and to use the restroom. This was our first time dinning at LBV and we won't be returning.

Pre-covid crab spaghetti was delicious. Chunks of fresh crab. Last 2x I went horrible. I though maybe a bad night the first time but my recent visit was horrible again. It was spaghetti with what I speculate was mushy canned crabbed. It tasted worse then undrained tuna from the can dumped on spaghetti. My husband thought it was tuna. Stick with the over priced steaks and bake potato, etc., or avoid going.

One of the top 3 place to dine locally. Food was very good but I am not a fan of the a la cart for some items while others include side. We had a quiet table sized for 2 or 4 but other couples had to seated at table for 6 or 8. Service was attentive.

We had not been to LBV for a while. Our experience was superb. This was a romantic outing and our booth did not disappoint. Our server, Corey, was pleasant, professional, and contributed a great deal to the enjoyment of the experience. The onion soup, and stuffed shrimp appetizers were wonderful. We both had beef, my wife's fillet, and my strip were cooked to perfection with great flavor. The cream spinach was flavorful. My wife is an intense critic of restaurant food, and the fact that she was pleased, pleased me no end on what was a special evening.
