New place that definitely needs to work out the kinks and staffing issues.
Stopped in, group of 5, this past Saturday. We were there at 640pm and didn't get seated until 8:45. We were told an hour wait.
We waited outside on the patio, which was OK. We got drinks at the bar and sat out there. The ladies at the bar were swamped, but really trying. Apparently there are only 2 bar tenders and 1 was also the waitress for the patio. Instead of waiting and bothering her, we just got our own drinks from the bar. I can't stress enough, all the employees are very nice and helpful, they just need more of them.
They have a full bar, with all the usual things. Don't expect any fancy beer or wine. There was a bells oktoberfest on tap, which was nice, but for a steakhouse, there isn't a wine list! The wine is cupcake brand, so don't expect much there. There also isn't a beer list or drink menu. Only appetizers are served outside. We opted not to get them, as it was just supposed to be an hour. Well we should have because it was a 2 hour wait.
When we were finally given a table we ordered the fried mozzarella and chicken strips for appetizers. We devoured them because we were so hungry. Everyone at the table commented on how good the fried mozzarella and chicken strips were. They also brought bread to the table. It was very good as well.
We all got NY strip steaks. When they came to the table 1 thing was noticeable immediately. Inconsistencies in the thickness of the steaks. Weird, but ok. I got a baked potato with mine, it was the smallest potato I've ever seen at a steakhouse. Others at the table got the steak fries and asparagus. The fries were good but the asparagus was so soggy. We had 1 child with us. He got the chicken strips and fries, which he liked. No kids drinks (milk or juice) and no kids cups. He was given a styrofoam cup of water, which was immediately spilled of course.
So how were the steaks? Well first off. Don't get put off by the "market price" for a NY strip that is on the menu. $33 isn't a lot at all for a strip. Second.. ehh. They were OK. They were in need of seasoning. Some salt and pepper would have went a long way. Also, the temps of the steaks were all off. I ordered a medium and mine was super well done. Another person at the table ordered medium well and got med rare. It's actually the first time in a long time I used A1 on a steak because it needed flavor. The steaks all came with salad. 2 people in group ordered Caesar salads. What they got were regular salads with Caesar dressing lol. Sorry, no pics of all of this. After waiting almost 3 hours for food, once it was received there wasn't time for photos. I added some pics from their Facebook page because this page didn't have any pics. For 4 adults, 4 steaks, and a kids meal our total was $190, not including the drinks we had for 2 hours before dinner. If they can be a little more consistent with the steaks and sides, this is definitely worth it.
So would we go back? YES! Options are needed in the area and this place has a lot of potential. I'm hoping some of the stuff we experienced was because they are so new and staff shortages are everywhere right now.
O.. and PS... if you are wondering about masks..my group was the only ones wearing them, not even the staff. We had a kid with us that is too young to be vaccinated. I'm not judging on that, just mentioning it in case someone is wondering if they are wearing masks. read more
