"Reason for visiting: dinner with my buddy Date/time of visit: Wednesday night, 6:30 PM Parking: in the underground lot; it cost me $5 for parking. If you can find parking on the street, it's free. Party size: 2 Environment/ambience: nice. They have TVs atthe bar only, no sound. No TVs inside the restaurant. They have someone playing piano inside the restaurant. Upscale dining butnot everyone was dressed up. Service: bar service was slow but seems like they were busy or understaffed. I went to the bar towait for my buddy and waited 10 minutes before I had to flag someone down. They took my order but I waited another 5 minutes; mybuddy showed up so I cancelled my order. The service at the table was awesome. She was cute and friendly ????; she came aroundoften too. Food: We had the petite seafood tower (jumbo shrimp, crab claws, mussels, and oysters; all of it was great. Horseradish is strong so be careful! Cocktail sauce was good too! I had the New York strip (wet aged); also had cream of corn andsauteed mushrooms as sides. Everything was great! Steak was cooked right (medium) and flavor was on point Also had a couple ofold fashioneds with Bulleit Rye. Cost: I didn't pay but I'm assuming $300 with tip. New York strip I had was $68."

We had a wonderful dining experience for a Birthday celebration. The piano player performed "Happy Birthday" and my husband received a delightful Banana Foster dessert as a special treat!

We had a wonderful romantic evening! We were there for 5 hours and received excellent service. My only complaint would be the price of $38 for 2 espressos and 1 coffee, which I found to be a bit high. View menu

We ordered the wet New York steak, Salmon, Lobster Bisque soup, and asparagus as a side. Food is excellent! Service was great at first but when our drinks were empty, we never saw our server until it was time for the check. Lost sales!

A fun and delicious experience for all. Great ambience, great location. Excellent friendly service. Entertaining pianist. Had crab cakes, large shrimp cocktail. I had the 20 oz ribeye steak, very tasty. Also my favorite dessert, Creme Brule! Willdefinitely recommend to all.

Expensive, but not surprising. Comparable to other upscale steakhouse options. The steaks were cooked perfectly. We visited on a quiet Sunday evening, with few other customers in the restaurant. Our server was attentive but not intrusive. The background music, featuring classics from Sinatra and Billie Holiday, added to the ambiance without overpowering conversation. Would definitely revisit for a special occasion. View menu

Went here last Friday to celebrate my gf's birthday because we LOVE this place. Our waiter Grant had served us before and remembered us, and he was phenomenal. He even filmed for me when I proposed to my gf later that night when her birthday dessert came. The steaks here are absolutely fantastic. The sides are delicious. And the service is beyond reproach. Grant is an awesome server that is attentive without hovering, and extremely charming and funny. I have never left Larsen's without being 100% satisfied. Oh, and she said yes :

Wine list depressing first I tried to order a bottle of wine and all of the Pinot wines bottles less than $100 were out of stock and there were few of those. When you compare to the more upscale steah houses in the area, say Cut or Fia Streak or Meat on Ocean (yes, I know that they are much higher level but ... have a wine list with many entries under $100, are IN STOCK and better than th $100+ bottle the somm suggested. Very poor. On the other hand, the meat was perfectly adequate and cooked properly, although overpriced compared to other steakhouses of their level. Service was inconsistent (except for the runner who was always available . In short upper management needs to realize, compare...
