I went here with a group of friends as a part of our Father's Day weekend, and it was a very good choice. The restaurant is very well decorated and appointed. The service was top notch as well. All of the wait staff were friendly, knowledgeable of the menu, and took care of our large group well. I started with the Old Fashioned Flight, with their Aged Old Fashioned, one with Old Forester 1920, and one with Buffalo Trace that they said was their restaurants pick. The first 2 were really good, but I think they gave me the wrong drink, because the one with BT didn't taste like it had any bourbon in it at all. But the waiter switched it out for me with a Tequila OF, which was really good. They brought out two salads for the table, and their Cesar Salad was really good, the dressing was so good. I ordered the Australian Lamb Chops, which were amazing. Simply seasoned, but done so well. I ordered a side of Chimichurri sauce, and it was not needed at all. My wife had the meatloaf, which was delicious, and the group all enjoyed their meals and drinks. We left full and happy. I definitely recommend you add this place to you list if you've never been. read more

Oak Steakhouse - Australian Lamb - Steakhouses Near Me - Raleigh, North Carolina

We're new to the area and have now visited Oak Steakhouse twice. Both visits were wonderful overall and we'll definitely keep coming back. The restaurant is beautiful, cozy, and comfortable, and the hosts and servers have been excellent every time. We made reservations once through OpenTable and once by phone -- both were easy, and reservations are probably a good idea since they stay busy. The food has been great both times. On our first visit, my husband and I shared the ribeye and loved the flavor. Their Caesar salad is also surprisingly unique and delicious with broccolini instead of a traditional Caesar style. I also really appreciated being able to order a single Rockefeller oyster since most places require a half dozen minimum. The second time we visited for an early Mother's Day dinner with my son and shared the off-menu tomahawk, which was excellent as well. The only consistent issue we've had has been steak temperature. We usually order medium, but their interpretation of medium has come out significantly more rare than expected. The first time, we had to send the steak back, and they asked us to identify only the undercooked portions to recook separately, which was a bit awkward and something we hadn't experienced before at a steakhouse. The second time, we tried being more specific and even requested an approximate temperature around 140°, but the steak came out closer to medium-well. That said, the flavors, atmosphere, and service have been so enjoyable that we'll absolutely keep coming back. We're just hoping we can eventually land on the perfect medium steak on a future visit. read more

Have you ever tried to get a baked potato in the afternoon? They all tell you to wait until after 3:00pm. Not these folks! Sometimes a hot baked potato fills you like nothing else. I walked in the entrance, it had some cool license plates. A long booth style bench and a warm friendly hostess. She gladly took my to go order and made sure I got the sides for the potato. I have been back a few times and hope to do a sit down with my husband. read more

Starting out with a caveat that I was here for a function, and did not order off of the main menu. My company sponsored a business roundtable here and guests were offered several options for entrees. I chose the filet mignon, and our we were served salads, bread and table portions of mashed potatoes and sauteed asparagus. The filet mignon (medium rare) was good but perhaps a tiny bit chewier than I expected. The offered wines were also good, at least the red they were pouring. Time was running out so the staff packaged a very decadent chocolate cake for us to go. Service was efficient and professional, but again I can only comment on service during this private function. One minor complaint was that our private dining area was separated from the main dining room by a frosted glass partition, and noise was interfering with the conversation. read more

Stopped by the Oak Steakhouse for a business dinner a while back and it made a strong impression. The restaurant is beautiful, elevated enough for a date night, but well-suited for a business dinner. Parking can be bit tricky. You'll need to either find parallel parking or use a nearby paid garage. Once inside, you'll check in with the host. Definitely worth making a reservation ahead of time to ensure you are seated without a wait. The overall experience feels a step above many Raleigh, comparable steakhouses you'd find in Dallas. We started with a bottle of the 2009 Chateau Montelena Estate Cabernet wine to start with. The sommelier brought out a decanter to let the bottle of wine breath before serving it, which was a nice touch. Next we ordered our main entrees. I ordered the 8 oz Filet Mignon with black truffle butter. We also ordered the parkhouse rolls for the table along with several sides (Mac & cheese, braised collard greens, and the bone marrow frites). The steak was excellent and the server melted the butter down with a blowtorch. The sides were all well executed and complemented the meal nicely. If you're ever in the area and looking for a high-end dining experience, Oak Steakhouse in downtown Raleigh is definitely worth a visit. read more

I came for the deviled eggs but the steak frites won me over! The deviled eggs are not quite bite-sized, so you do have a mouth full but it's an explosion of the best deviled eggs I've ever had. The fried oyster on top with a drop is hot sauce was incredible. I got a half portion of the roasted carrot salad, I could have used more carrots and I didn't realize it came with blue cheese but overall a really good salad. There were these crispy cornbread sprinkled on top, I could have eaten that by itself! And the steak frites won me over, perfectly cooked steak and the bone marrow fries were amazing. The service was friendly and quick. The restaurant is dimly lit so great for a date night dinner. read more

Overall we enjoyed our dinner here. Out of everything I was most impressed with service, our server was not only friendly and conversational, but also very knowledgeable about everything on the menu, provided great suggestions, and anticipated all of our needs. Truly great service. I liked the atmosphere of the place too, plenty of tables, yet it's kind of stretched out and the place doesn't feel crowded, I liked it. Booth and bar seating available. Freshly baked rolls with whipped butter were absolutely amazing. I went for hangar steak and I have to say it was absolutely delicious. We also had confit duck leg and knew your strip steak at our table and our friends loved it too. Sides "for the table" were hit or miss for me; Mac and cheese is delicious but that is not "for the table" size, this is a standard side for one person. Fries were great, good amount too (for the table!). Shishito peppers were eh, too overpowering flavor and hazelnuts seemed not fresh, but maybe it's just me. The peppers were the only thing we didn't finish. I also loved that all ice cream and sorbet flavors to choose from were unusual and house made. It's expensive so it's definitely not for your casual random go out night, but like I said, we had great experience here. read more

This was a last minute walk in and I sat at the bar so hungry from the day. I was attending an event nearby and couldn't focus until I filled my belly and I knew this place wouldn't disappoint. I sat at the bar, ordered an old fashioned, some rolls, a burger with fries and an additional side of collards. My burger was ordered medium and cooked exactly how I liked it. The collards were a great sized portion and seasoned well. It was pretty close to closing but it didn't compromise my experience on service or food which is always nice. Needless to say, I left happy with a belly full read more

Heard this place was one of the top steakhouses in NC--can't say if it's the best, but it was definitely a solid meal. Service was a bit on the slower side and our server was just okay, not the warmest. For starters, we tried the bone marrow. It was good, though I've had better, and I wasn't a fan of the bacon mustard jam--probably just a personal preference since I lean more savory than sweet. For my main, I went with the steak frites. The steak was cooked just how I like it, tender with great flavor, and the bone marrow frites were excellent. We shared the mac and cheese, which was a disappointment. The texture was nice, but it wasn't very cheesy, had a slight sweetness to it, and came out lukewarm even though it was served in an iron skillet. Cocktails were another highlight. The "Belle Fleur" was refreshing, and the espresso martini was bold and hit all the notes you'd expect from a classic version. read more

Went on a Sunday night so it was a quiet atmosphere in there. Waiter was attentive and had good suggestions. Bone marrow was interesting, I wanted to try it at least once. Good steak. It was my birthday and they brought out a plate with a candle lit on it. It would have been better to not do anything vs that cause it was a little pathetic hahaha. read more

Classic American steakhouse at its finest, the gorgeous modern design gave a sophisticated vibe without being overly pretentious. I visited on a semi quiet Tuesday evening with only a few patrons at the bar. The waiter was fast and welcoming, immediately took my drink order of an old-fashioned that was perfectly executed. I had the medium rare steak frites, but substituted the fries for collard green. The steak was well-seasoned and buttery, while the flavorful collard greens were a bit too sweet for my liking. Also, the portion of the collard greens was weirdly massive, more than enough for two people. Overall, I enjoyed my experience and absolutely adored the elegant design and ambience of this wonderful establishment, and will add it to my bi-weekly roaster. read more

Oak Steakhouse - Medium rare steak and collard greens. - Steakhouses Near Me - Raleigh, North Carolina

PHENOMENAL dining experience!! Came here for a work dinner and it did not disappoint. We started off with deviled eggs 10/10. Bone marrow is a MUST! The best I've ever had in my life. Oysters were good and shrimp cocktail. I had a filet. Cooked perfectly. 2 people at our table got the Wellington and it looked amazing. It was cooked more rare than my rare filet and I was jealous. Even the folks that got salads were impressed and scarfed down their food. Highly recommend!! No pics bc we devoured the food! read more

This is the 3rd time we have been here and this time the food was ok only. What is good this time: deviled eggs. The fried oysters are crunchy. We always get these every time we come here and so far they always make perfect deviled eggs. Filet mignon is soft and very good. The outside is cooked with some crust. Pair with their own sauce Oak steak sauce is perfect. The raw oysters are also fresh. Tartare was a miss this time. We did not taste the nuoc mam like we had last time. The rockefeller oysters are ok. We found them too cheesy. Caesar salad is also a miss. Not romaine salad like it should be. It has bitter taste. Do not get Foie Gras (the liver). We love liver but this is not liver at all. Overall the food is not good at all this time. read more

My husband and I came here for our anniversary dinner, and it was a great choice! Our server, James, made our experience even better. He was amazing and very knowledgeable about the menu. We ordered the oysters Rockefeller to try. And while I'm not a big oyster person, the topping on it was really good. For my entree, I had the boneless ribeye, and I can say it was probably one of the best steaks I've ever had. It was juicy and so full of flavor! I got a side of chimichurri, and that was the perfect addition. The sides are shareable, so we got mashed potatoes and macaroni and cheese. The macaroni and cheese was okay. But the mashed potatoes? Absolutely delicious! If I come back to the area, I'd definitely go back there. It's a bit pricey, but well worth it. read more

Don't confuse this place with "The Oak" as I did...they are two separate restaurants in different parts of the city lol. This one is relatively new compared to some of the older staples like Angus Barn or Sullivans. I'm a huge fan of Angus Barn, they make a mean steak and sides. The Oak is just as good if not better in certain categories such as sides. However, the Angus Barn wins for atmosphere and theme, the Oak is just a typical higher end steakhouse very clean and very modern. Service here is exemplary. Never ever had anything to complain about. The food is oh so amazing. I usually get the ribeye rare and it comes out perfectly each time and has a ton of flavor. It's a bit more pricy compared to the Angus Barn but the venue is much smaller and way less crowded, so more intimate. You feel less cramped in here. I really love their salads and Brussels sprouts. They bake fresh rolls and bring them to your table hot, they are much more dense than the fluffy rolls you'd get at Texas Roadhouse, having more substance and less sugar. Any of the appetizers or sides I've had have also been amazing. I would rank the Oak as my 2nd favorite steakhouse in the triangle after Angus Barn. Definitely 5 stars or above. read more

We've been here before and it's always been consistently amazing but most recently we dined here for our 9 year anniversary in November and let me tell you, they sure know how to make you feel special. When you dine here you will be treated like kings, nay, gods. No, the food wasn't perfect but yes, they fixed any issues that came up (the over $100 dry aged steak was raw inside after being sent back to the kitchen twice but they comped it without us asking and the marrow fries were so salty to the point of being inedible although we didn't mention it because there was more than enough food to eat anyway). Tartare was nice and the spice on the side has quite the kick so be careful not to be heavy handed when seasoning your lettuce wrap. Good but wouldn't get again. Deviled eggs were incredible and topped with fried oysters. It's been a while but I wanna say my drink was called the blue lemon? I loved it. My husband said it didn't taste like alcohol but that's what I was going for hahaha Scallops are yummy. They gave us free marrow (with toast) and that was delicious. Bone marrow fries were the inedibly salty ones. It tasted like the cap fell off as they were seasoning it. You've gotta get the bread DUH it's amazing. Beef Wellington I ordered was like one of 7 and there were two left so of course I had to. It was lovely and the meat was perfectly medium rare. Sauce was quite salty but not unforgivable. We ordered the ice cream flight and they were all fantastic. They also gave us a complimentary blood orange dessert. Of course we will be coming back. The ambience is always gorgeous, intimate, and warm. The staff always goes above and beyond and is extremely attentive and helpful. They without a doubt went out of the way to make sure everything went smoothly for us and that we had a very special evening celebrating our anniversary there together. Definitely the best steakhouse in the triangle. read more

Six of us had the absolute pleasure of having dinner for a birthday dinner and great catch-up session. The food, of course, was awesme. But, our server Alex, is who made the night truly memorable for us. It was like he was one of our best friends from the moment he arrived at our table. Besides excellent steakhouse service, it was the little touches. He made us laugh and smile throughout the evening. Honestly, the best service I have had in many years, and I eat out frequently. He went above and beyond to make six friends feel like they were true VIPs. read more

Overall: Very nice experience and exceptional service, great quality steak, other food was hit or miss. Husband and I visited for our wedding anniversary and had a lovely time. First and foremost, the staff were exceptional. Our waiter went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time and felt like we could really take our time enjoying the night. The food in general was good, but some specifics: - Rolls are excellent. $8 is crazy but dang they are so good. I would always get these again despite the price. - Caesar salad: We were advised to split the "small" size for an appetizer and this was good advice as this salad is big! It is a very non-traditional Caesar with spicy honey and broccoli. I thought it was excellent and very unique. Be warned it is quite spicy. - Pork chop: Unfortunately this was just okay. The cook was a perfect medium and the meat quality was nice but it just lacked flavor overall. Would not order this again. - Dry aged bone-on ribeye: Excellent quality steak and perfect medium rare cook with a great crust. Probably the best quality steak we've had in Raleigh! Seasoning was simple and let the steak shine. - Mac and cheese: Good flavor but unfortunately texture was terrible. Sauce was too thick/not creamy and noodles were terribly overcooked, just falling apart. I feel like if we'd said something to the waiter he definitely would have replaced it, we just didn't mind enough to say anything but that was our choice. - Mashed potatoes: Fine/not memorable We were also blown away by the dessert menu! Some steak places sleep on dessert but the Oak really had a lot of creativity here. They had a baked Alaska that we weren't in the mood for but I will definitely be back to try as the other desserts were so good. - Chocolate cake: Really tasty and rich - huge slice! And served with a super sticky caramel gelato that was excellent. - Persimmon cheesecake: Very tasty and unique with sage sauce. Excellent texture. read more

We went here for a birthday dinner and by the look of the crowd this looked to be a great meal. While the atmosphere was great the meal was average. The Caesar was nothing special just because it had broccolini. The Mac & cheese was again just average and small being "for the table". Just sauce over pasta. The frites were tasty but just frozen fries. While I don't expect anything special recognition of the birthday would have been nice. It was also so loud we could not clearly hear our server or carry on a conversation. There was no sense asking her to repeat herself as we could never hear her. Our server acted as if we were not there I guess since big tables have big bills they get all the love. Not impressed with the Oak as there are other steakhouses in town read more

My grandfather always told me there's a few things worth spending money on in life. Food is not always one of them but at the right place, with the right people, who create a perfect experience, it can be. To start my 2025 dining experiences off with Oak Steakhouse for the first time, may have been a bad decision because now every place I go to from here on out, has a very high bar to meet. My husband and I love to try new restaurants, we try and pick at least one a month but strive for two. We've been to many different steakhouses around the area, all of the popular ones Im sure you've heard of. If you have not tried Oak Steakhouse yet and made it this far in reading my review, just stop here, make the reservation, and go indulge yourself. Ask for David :) He made the best recommendations to pair items together, knew the menu perfectly and was the star of our experience because of his attentiveness and knowledge. My husband even said "they dont have a cook back there, they have a chef!" Everything was so flavorful and dopamine filled with each bite. Here's what we had: We tried Rosie Corsair (rose petal infused kettle one, hibiscus syrup, lemon soda). It was like a hibiscus sprite with vodka, perfectly paired flavors, it was light and crispy with a bit of sweetness. My husband ordered the flight of old fashions. He LOVEs a good old fashioned and has learned not everyone can make a good one, even though it's a simple drink. His flight had Old Forester 1920, Evan Williams (house aged), and the seasonal old fashioned was an Apple version. His favorite was the house aged Even Williams. They had a few things to it that make it theirs, which is what made the drink. For starters, the Parkerhouse rolls and roasted bone marrow. Fix your face if "bone marrow" tripped you out, it was DELICIOUS and not what we expected. You spread this bacon concoction onto a piece of what I think is sourdough bread thats been toasted. All the flavors just dance in your mouth, it was so good! We also shared a Caesar salad which was the best version of a Caesar salad we've ever had (we're big Caesar fans, I always judge a high end restaurant off their Caesar salad). For entrees we both ordered steaks. I got the filet and he got the ribeye so we could try both cuts. I never had a steak cooked so perfectly to my liking, I ordered mine medium well because too much red will upset my stomach although I used to love a good medium steak. Both steaks had the perfect fill flavor and we topped them both with chimichurri. I loved their chimichurri, it was more like a soft butter spread texture than super oily like some can be. SO GOOD. Even the mashed potatoes and collard greens had their own moment. They just did not miss with anything. The collards have some of the "southern" flavor of a lot of us in the south enjoy but with their own spin on it with the creamy texture and flavor. To wrap up our evening we tried their Peanut Butter Pie. It's like a much better version of a Reeses Peanut Butter Cup and an Oreo had a baby who went on to become the president. It. Was. So. Good. A peanut butter mouse that just melts in your mouth paired with that crisp banana chip topping, creates a firework of flavors in your mouth that send you back for another bite, even if you are full. This will be our go to steakhouse of all special events or when we just want to have special date night out. I can no longer with good heart recommend some of our favorite steakhouses in the same price bracket, this will be my #1 pick for now. read more

Very solid experience! We dined here to celebrate my friend's birthday. We really enjoyed this restaurant. The food was spectacular and the Service was amazing as well. We had to wait until our entire party was present to be seated so in the meantime we were able to sit at the bar which was a hospitable touch. Once seated, our waiter James was very nice and informed on the menu. You could tell he really knew and enjoyed what he was doing. The appetizers were amazing including the deviled eggs and the oysters. The deviled eggs had a kick to them which was much appreciated. The steak I ordered was cooked to perfection and very flavorful. The only downside on the food was that they ran out of rolls :( Ambiance is typical of a steakhouse, dimly lit and sultry. The bathrooms were nice too, including a full length mirror and bag hook. Overall, had a great experience and will certainly be back! read more

Back on September 9th some associates with the Raleigh Regional Association of Realtors were having dinner the night before our Global Summit taking place at RRAR's Cary headquarters. In attendance were members of the Exec Committee and a couple of guests including John McPherson, the 2025 President of NC Realtors. When we were ordering our meals I asked for a hamburger with no buns but with a lot of pickles on the side. I am trying to lose weight and I knew I would not be able to resist having a dessert so I figured ordering just the patti would help offset the dessert calories. We can rationalize a lot when we are trying to lose weight. Little did I know that the restaurant was out of pickles. Before I knew it the manager, Nicholas Papas, was standing next to me with a whole jar of pickles. He had actually run across the street to either a store or another restaurant and found a jar of hamburger dill pickles just so I could get the pickles I ordered. Everyone at the table was very impressed with what the manager had done. It was a great example of top notch service, of finding a way to give the customer what they desired. If Mr. Papas did that for someone who had never set foot in his restaurant before that night and something that he could have easily ignored I think he deserves more than 5 stars for his efforts. And the meals were all great too. The rest of the staff provided great service to me and my companions. I highly recommend Oak Steakhouse and if you like pickles like I do you won't be disappointed. read more

Wow. What an experience! I've been to numerous Steak Houses all over the country and Oak is one to add to the "best" list. First, we came for our anniversary, reso made online via open table. We arrived right when they opened and the the decor and aesthetic was beautiful! I was very excited to see how the food and service would hold up to the initial Impression. Next, our server was Eric. He was AMAZING. From explaining the daily specials, to helping us decide which appetizers or sauces we wanted to add to our steaks. He was great. Such a welcoming personality, we knew we were in good hands. We started with espresso martinis( which are listed on the dessert menu) and they were delicious. Vanilla infused Tito's? Oh sign me right up. We each had 2 glasses during dinner. For our appetizers we had the pork belly and the deviled eggs. Both were very unique and flavorful. For our entrees I had the filet mignon with the diane sauce and my boyfriend had the prime rib with the bone marrow and Black truffle butter. We also had a side of mashed potatoes and creamed collard greens. Now this is where you must listen very closely. If there is anything that you MUST do, it's get that Black truffle butter on your steak. After tasting my man's I knew forsure I messed up. I should have added that. And Eric made it happen. Once I added it to my steak it enhanced it EVEN MORE. I will dream about that butter forever. Eric also surprised us with 2 glasses of champagne to help celebrate our anniversary. Such a personal touch to make us feel ever more special than we did while we were there. We actually had to take food home because we were so full toward the end. The food reheated well btw if you're concerned. Overall phenomenal experience and we will most definitely be back! read more

My boyfriend and I dined here last night and had a wonderful experience. I booked a reservation online at Opentable for 6:00PM. We arrived a few minutes early and were warmly greeted and seated in a booth. Our waiter, Jesse, was awesome. He informed us of all the specials along with the prices which I appreciated. He recommended the Beef Wellington and my boyfriend and I each ordered that entree along with the bone marrow frites. For our appetizers we ordered the Parker House rolls, Oysters Rockefeller and our waiter gave us 2 complimentary oyster deviled eggs to try. I ordered a smoked Manhattan and my boyfriend had a bourbon. The presentation of our drinks and entrees were impressive. Everything was delicious! Jesse checked on us often making sure our drinks and water were filled, even Management checked on us making sure we were happy with our meals and drinks. The Beef Wellington is a must order if it's available. They sell out of it pretty quickly, so you will want to get there earlier. The flavors were outstanding! My filet was cooked perfectly, the sauce, prosciutto, mushrooms and puff pastry complimented the filet and I didn't want my meal to end. You must order the bone marrow frites! I've never had fries this tasty in my life! And our appetizers and rolls were delicious too. The restaurant is beautifully decorated and classy. I loved the dimmed lighting and coziness of the booth. Parking is easy to find also with several pay to park lots available. I look forward to having another amazing experience again here in the future. read more

Great food! Great service! Would highly recommend and will revisit again in the future.

First, Taylor greeted us and was a wealth of knowledge about night time places to check out after dinner (better than most concierge desks at hotels!). The menu was straight and the food was nothing short of amazing. Our server was very knowledgeable and we took him up on suggestions for pairing a bottle of wine & chimichurri sauce with our choice of hanger steak and frites. Everything was seasoned perfectly and was melt in your mouth yumminess. The wall of wine bottles and dim lighting of the industrial chandeliers made this meal a real pleasure. Super clean and classy. read more

Review: Oak Steakhouse - Raleigh, North Carolina   It was a night of hanging out with good friends. The steakhouse had a sleek modern ambiance with a blend of wood, polished metals, stylish lighting, and an elevated vibe, making it the perfect spot for an intimate evening.   The service was impeccable.  The Staff was overly attentive and made sure that we received all the things we needed to enjoy the evening, from the curated cocktails and red wine to the attention to the needs of the table from the beginning, which was beyond the expectation of a top-tier restaurant.   Let's talk Steak.   The selection of the steaks was genuinely impressive.  They also had varying choices of 40-day aged steaks, providing all members of our party options to choose from for the dining experience.  The 8oz filet mignon medium rare was nothing short of perfection.  Every piece of steak melted in your mouth like butter, and the seasoning profile was the right balance between allowing the natural flavors of the meat to shine. They offered a number of great accompaniments with the steak along with a number of great sauce options so each person could curate their best steak experience.    We had several sides at the table, including roasted baby carrots, bone marrow fries, Yukon gold mashed potatoes, pan-roasted mushrooms, and Mac and cheese. As a restaurant reviewer who has traveled all over the world, I couldn't find one thing wrong with what we experienced that night.   Even the Apple Cinnamon Moonpie truly made the night an unforgettable experience.   If you are looking for an amazing dining experience for spouses, family, friends, and business associates, I would absolutely recommend Oak Steakhouse. read more

We came here to celebrate a special occasion, looking for a fine steak. Walking in with a reservation on this weeknight, we were promptly seated. The decor and ambiance was exactly what we were looking for, and service was excellent throughout the meal. For starters, we ordered the table bread, which was not complementary but was absolutely delicious and fluffy and worth it. As for entrees, my wife ordered the 16 oz ribeye and I ordered the 14 oz NY Strip. Unfortunately, the steaks were just about the only part of the meal that I found disappointing - medium rare was closer to medium, there wasn't as much marbling of the steak that I'd like (perhaps personal preference), but most of all, neither steak (and I tried some of my wife's for good measure) was anywhere near as juicy as expected. The salt and pepper seasoning was a little light on the steak, but this actually paired fairly well with the extra salty creamed NC collards, a Southern spin on a typical creamed spinach you'd find at a steakhouse. Word of advice, consider what you're pairing the collard greens with since it is very salty after all. The waiter had recommend a hearty helping of the bone marrow frites and it didn't disappoint. And finally, we were served a complementary key lime pie to celebrate our occasion and this was delicious as well. To wrap it up, we spent a fair amount and everything was up to or exceeding my expectations ... except the steaks. Being the feature presentation, it's a very big "except", but I will certainly come here again and see how it goes. read more
