I highly recommend the truffle fries; the freshly fried potatoes pair perfectly with the truffle sauce, allowing the aroma to linger in your mouth with every bite. The scallops, likely pan-seared in butter, offered a rich, savory aroma and a tender texture that seemed to melt in the mouth. The 21-day dry-aged ribeye steak boasted an exceptional mouthfeel. Finally, the chocolate toffee cake provided a delightful, clean finish with just the right amount of sweetness.
