"Went there the other night for an early anniversary dinner and was highly disappointed. My husband and I have been once before for a rehearsal dinner and had a fabulous meal, so we were excited to go back. In those four years, something has gone awry. First, I called ahead of time and asked if there was any difference in the lunch and dinner menu, and was told it was the same menu all day. The server, who was inattentive and not particularly friendly, told us that because we were there between lunch and dinner there were no specials, implying we had chosen a poor time to eat. People were vacuuming and generally acting as if we had come during a bad time. I 'd say just close for a few hours to get yourselves ready for dinner service and not stay open if your service isn 't the same throughout the day. Our starters were pretty good though nothing to write home about. It was the super pricy surf and turf and prime rib that really let us down. The pieces of meat were heavy on the fat cap, which left relatively minimal edible meat. The meat we did have, while under seasoned and in heavy need of the aus jus, was cooked nicely. The sea bass part of the surf and turf was a joke in its size and cook somehow soggy and dry at the same time. The portion was also minuscule for the market price . Essentially, the price of the surf and turf is the cost of two entrees, but neither were entree size portions. The sides were atrocious. We had asked what the vegetable of the day was and told asparagus it was green beans. Our sides the mashed potatoes and the green beans were so overly salted that they were rendered inedible. I 'm sorry to say that we won 't be back anytime soon."

"Not impressed. The food wasn't awful; however it wasn't mind blowing. I opted to try the place out during its Lunch Buffet which is $19.99 I was under the impression that everything was included except with a limited amount of meats. Upon arrival I was told they'd only be keeping the buffet open until 3:30pm (it was a little after 3). I figured ok, I drove here already I may as well try it out. Now, as a long time foodie... I know how these type of places work; however the girl who tried turning us away didn't bother to explain. She also didn't explain that the meats were an additional charge (which is ridiculous considering that's the ONLY reason to pay that kind of price for a lunch buffet). The place had been empty and the dishes were all barely filled so I didn't eat much. The candied bacon was a joke... it was dry and had no flavor whatsoever. The meats weren't impressive at all the Picanha wasn't bad and the Gaucho was nice. The Lobster Bisque was watery... could've been good if it were creamy and not watered down. The woman... trying to rush the table... handed a check for over $70!!! That's when she said the meat portion was more. I had a problem with this and a gentleman was kind and adjusted the bill. The money wouldn't have been an issue had there been an actual dining experience, time to try enjoying it and most of all HAD IT EXPLAINED! What pissed me off more is the audacity to include a TIP on a bill at 20% when the waitress did absolutely NOTHING. Needless to say we will never be returning. Considering my reach and relationships with other restaurateurs across the country I would've rather had a great experience and felt comfortable referring people there. It's a shame I had high hopes."
