1 star experience at 5 star price!

Food was average taste, and very tiny. We were still hungry when we left. For the price we should have gone to Biaggi's in Cary and had a much better experience all the way around.

Nice but too Pricey

Sorry but this is no Ruth's Chris or even Angus Barn yet the prices seem to indicate that they are. I also think the prior two mentioned are overpriced as well. Kids menu - $8, small Filet $29, come on. If...

Loved It

Went there with a party of 5, had great food, although the dinner did take 2 hours. Drinks, dinner and desert was about $300. Best fillet mignon I've had in a long time. Try their house specialty appetizer!

Have never been more rudely treated at a restaurant anywhere
