    It is not often I get treated to a meal and when I do, it is nothing of this quality. First for me it's unassuming exterior relaxes you prior to the upcoming culinary extravaganza. It is warm and cozy inside, more like your grandmothers house prior to a celebration. The staff is kind considerate and professional always close by but never overbearing. The meals are served family style and in courses who lends itself to creating amazing memories. My kids, never fans of tomato soup, loved this garlic infused offering. Next came beans, a spaghetti appetizer and a fabulously tossed salad. There was none left by the time the main course reached us leaving us ready for the Piece De Resistance. The green beans were tasty and the potatoes a definite hit however the steaks were out of this world. My son got lamb with was flavorful, tender and a large portion. My daughter the filet which was rich, perfectly cooked and a meal unto itself. Her boyfriend, the pre birthday boy had the ribeye that transported him to another plane of epicurean joy. I had the big daddy porterhouse so I could get the best of both worlds of New York and Ribeye. I still can't decide which was better so WHEN not if I come back I will get it again. Don't leave before the ice cream which was greedily devoured by all of us. I highly recommend this gastric gem to all whether it's a romantic dinner or family celebration.

    Came here for their tapas menu with friends and had a great time. We got the olives, stuffed mushrooms, chicken strips, fried ravioli, bread and sampler plate with shrimp, beef, & pork. Everything was amazing! I would get everything again. My favorite was the shrimp! I want to get a full plate of shrimp next time. We also split a pitcher of the sangria and enjoyed it. Service was great! Our waitress and bartender were nice and answered all our questions. Highly recommend for a girls night out!

    Potatoes, noodles were tasty, beans

    We called for a reservation and got one within 30 min for a party of 4 on a Saturday night. This place was PACKED and super busy but we only had to wait a few min before our table was ready. This is a family style restaurant where you order and wntree and then they bring out soup, salad, bread, beans, potatoes and pasta for everyone to share. The noodles were probably the fav. We had chicken which was a little dry but it came with rice which was good. The ribeye was delish. It also comes with ice cream which was just perfect. The service was good except for a minor mixup when they didn't charge us correctly (they took the cash but also charged the card in full but we were a party of 4 spitting the check). That was cleared up pretty quickly tho. Drinks were good but I wish they had more variety. We will def be back at some point when we visit friends again in that area!

    Tomato Soup. What they start you with.

    See all

The heat lamps were on in the enclosed area out front and they have cushions for the wrought iron chains and a shelf of blankets for customers to use. Complimentary Chilean bread rolls brought to the table right away with garlic herb butter, salsa verde sauce (chimicuri like) so good,made the old fashioned way with pork fat. Calamari Frito, Cajun seasoning,light and crunchy with a house made tarter sauce (excellent server brought us an additional tarter) Crab stuffed chili Relleno was a creative version of this meal I've eaten dozens of times,feta and a sweet sauce with the rock crab was delicious. Panqueque especial ,chorizo had a little kick but was cooled off by the pineapple and sweetness of the crepe. All baked together with rice,cheese,guac,veggie's on the side,this was a big meal that was packed with a savory mix of flavors,my favorite thing I sampled. Honey shirachi shrimp, jalapeno, bacon, pineapple,on slaw. Big shrimp,big taste in the sauce, excellent appetizer or can be ordered as a full meal. Fort Rock beer on tap ,live music,fun place and I will be back.

    Felt like having a steak and though I wasn't too hip on the prices Yelp was showing me in their…read moremenu, I'd been to nearly every other steak place in Redding. The entrance was a bit tough to recognize. In addition, the sign requesting patrons to wait to be seated was absent personnel. The youngster arrived while on the phone taking a reservation. Further delay as she coordinated seating for the large group (showing up on Wednesday, she shared). She mentioned they were slow and said I could select whatever table I liked. I ordered a savory martini and filet mignon, mashed potatoes and French onion soup. Soup arrived with the martini and the two could not have been more oppositely received. The soup exquisite, the martini...nearly undrinkable. But to be fair, I wasn't expecting an overwhelming bell pepper flavor. Black pepper Absolute Vodka was the description. I detest bell peppers. I tried to choke down as much as I could, then decided to give up halfway through. The soup was sublime. A 1/4 inch slice of brown toast under the melted Swiss cheese, the broth and onions delicious. I requested a 6 ounce pour of the Caymus California Cabernet Sauvignon with the steak. It arrived with my meat and potatoes beautifully plated. I'm not sure I wasn't served a sirloin. That filet was the shape of no filet I've ever bought or been served. But it was perfectly cooked and the mashed potatoes were sublime - buttery and flavorful. The wine with less tannins than I anticipated- I really enjoyed that. Service was attentive and both the hostess and my server checked on me. My drive back to Sacramento will be pleasant.

Mac and cheese with bacon, French onion soup and the surf & turf skewers. French onion Soup was DELICIOUS, we added a little salt to the other two dishes and they were really good too. For dinner I ordered the $24 Caesar - it was good and it was big but it was a lot for a basic good tasting Caesar. Husband ordered the Chicken Parm over pasta with a red sauce and he loved it. Portion was huge and he brought half home. For dessert we had the cheesecake and the cream brûlée, both really good. Only downside, if you are dropping almost $200 for dinner, the bathrooms need to be clean and upscale. Mold in the ladies room toilet at the waterline - yuck - and Toilet paper dispenser broken and laying on the floor in the stall. This needs improvement. Overall we were happy with our meal and we will be back.

The cashier was friendly and helpful to navigate the menu. We opted for the 2 fish tacos or 2 shrimp tacos daily special for $8.75 and three in an al pastor Torta and grilled chicken street taco to boot. Chips and salsa are included. Fish taco - 9 - Nice crunchy batter with fresh fish and amazing punch with the pickled onions and Chipotle Crema Shrimp taco - 8 - Fresh shrimp but lacks spice. Pickled onions and Chipotle Crema give it flavor. Super Torta with Al pastor - 7 - Sadly they gave us a very plain carne asada but the rest of the Torta was good. Street taco combination with grilled chicken - 5 - The chicken was very bland but nicely cooked. The beans were terrific and the rice was just ok Pretty cool taqueria with some tasty items and ones to avoid unless you prefer your meats bland. We saw a molcajete on one table and a sizzling plate of fajitas at another which intrigues us for another time. I'd come back for the seafood tacos and the beans though!!!

The service was great and timely - I was in and out. I grabbed three street tacos and it came with chips. I only ate two tacos and the chips were stale. The tortilla on the taco was amazing, the salsa was mehhh (not enough of a kick for me) but the meat was bland, as if it needs some salt.

I do appreciate that the staff had been attentive towards our food and asked if we wanted to exchange it or get some dessert free on them. We declined, but the gesture was appreciated. I did learn from management that they tend to use more smokey and char feature to their steaks, if you want to try this place I recommend asking for them to explain the process of cooking ; based on which cut you choose, and make it to your liking for it to turn out well. Items we ate : - Cesar salad (way to much lemon it was too bitter) - breads (crunchy most items but overall flavoring was good.) - Lobster chowder (great) - Mac n cheese (it wasn't what we liked but not bad) - French fries( not what we expected like other steakhouses they tasted more like crunchy in&out.) - filet mignon was good, still a little char but the taste and texture was adequate. - New York wagyu (they decided not to charge me as this was not good what so ever. I did like that the manager was able to come and speak to me but overall the flavor was OK, too much salt, and burnt. I ordered medium well but it came out pretty rare and just burnt..... when I sent it back, they tried to fix it but it just was not the best overall. Maybe it was the cut specifically. - French 75 (was good!) - raspberry drop (another version of lemon drop) was good!
