"After a long hard day, just wanted a nice relaxing dinner to celebrate our wedding anniversary. My husband ordered a Grey goose martini with no vermouth, I ordered their specialty lemon drop. His martini was some cucumber vodka, not what he ordered, and he didn't care for it. Server never checked on the drinks. He ordered filet mignon, I decided to try the margarita yellowtail. His steak was tender, but lacked any flavor. I had never had yellowtail before. What was cooked was tasty, but bulk of it was very rare. I get eating a nice tuna steak on the rare side, but the center was **** rare, not pink, but ****. The rice and veggies were ok, but not enough to make a meal being I couldn't eat the fish. Again, server didn't check on us for awhile. I really wanted to try the lemon tart brulee, but instead opted for sea salt Caramel cheesecake as I really wanted the hot white Russian as a nightcap. Well...they didn't have milk for the drink. NO MILK! The cheesecake is misnamed. Don't get this if you are a caramel fan, or expecting a nice caramel taste. The cheesecake had a weird texture, wasn't nice and creamy. It came with a coffee creme and coffee beans. Totally overwhelmed the cheesecake. Didn't taste caramel at all. I like coffee flavor, and if the cheesecake would have been called coffee cheesecake, it would have been fine. Overall, a really poor dinner to celebrate our anniversary, and a crappy end to an already crappy day. Will not patronize them again!"
