"Our server was fantastic, providing excellent service and helping us choose our meals when we were indecisive. Their menu featured a fantastic selection of appetizers, entrees, desserts, and wines. We kicked off our evening with the Firecracker Shrimp, and there was so much shrimp that it could almost be a meal on its own with a side. It reminded me of Bang Bang Shrimp, and it’s easy to see why it’s one of their most sought-after appetizers. My partner also ordered the Lobster Bisque, which looked delicious and received high praise from him, thanks to the delightful hint of cognac.
For our main courses, I chose the Beef Short Ribs, served with green beans and garlic mashed potatoes, while my boyfriend opted for the Herb Roasted Chicken, accompanied by rice pilaf and green beans. The beef was cooked to perfection—so tender that it required no knife; I could eat it with a spoon! The portion of chicken was generous, and my partner was more than satisfied with the flavor.
The sides complemented the main dishes wonderfully. What I appreciated most about the food was its simplicity and how the flavors really stood out. The green beans tasted fresh, devoid of any overwhelming saltiness, while the garlic mashed potatoes and rice were seasoned just right.
The restaurant maintained a steady pace throughout the evening, yet we received and enjoyed our appetizer, soup, and main courses within 45 minutes. I've been to larger chain restaurants where it can be a challenge to have your meal served this quickly, so I commend the staff and chefs for their efficiency.
To conclude our meal, we indulged in dessert. Our server recommended the gingerbread cheesecake, but after some deliberation, we opted for the Duo Souffle instead, which was delicate, flavorful, and served warm. After finishing that, our server asked if we wanted to go for round two, and since it was a special occasion, we decided to indulge again! We went with the cheesecake, which was beautifully presented on a caramel floral pattern and topped with a drizzle of melted cream. It was exquisite, and the granola—perhaps gingerbread—base added a lovely texture that complemented the cheesecake perfectly.
Overall, my partner and I had a wonderful anniversary, and we will definitely be returning to this restaurant. Highly recommended!"
