First time diner at this fabulous Steakhouse.
I went with the queen size prime rib.
Huge piece of meat.
To my exuberant surprise, they have a salad bar and it was awesome.
I got broccoli, mixed vegetables and a loaf of bread with my meal.
Heidi was my fine bartender.
It was an added ambiance to my meal sitting next to and chatting with a Lady by the name of Fran.

First and foremost we had a party of 17.
So a lot of people.
The waitress took care of us incredibly well.
She was attentive always asking if we needed anything, let us know about our food . She took our order and we went up to get salad bar.
The salad bar is a huge plus as I always love a good one.
I ordered the lobster bisque.
It arrived and was super hot and pretty flavorful.
We had also ordered garlic Parmesan wings.
They were a bit different than what I'm used to but tasted very flavorful as well. I ordered the steak medium rare .
Once it finally arrived after a very long kitchen wait (which the waitress spoke to us to let us know several times) the steak was more medium to well.
The mushrooms on top were a good addition to it . All it was a decent time but definitely not worth the money.

I’d been wanting to try this place for a while and so stopped in for dinner recently.
Overall, the place was clean, the service was decent, and the food was okay with slight exception on some items. I got the pork chop dish and chose rice pilaf as my side and it came with asparagus.
I also chose to try out the salad bar and got a cup of the cheddar broccoli soup.
I will say that the soup was great - with plenty of flavor and broccoli that was just firm enough.
The salad bar wasn’t anything special, with your usual shaved carrots, cherry tomatoes, etc and seemed sort of out of place, but it was okay for what it was.
The rice and pork chops were sort of on the bland side.
As you can see from the pics, the chops were a ghoulish white and aside from the fruit glaze they were on the tough side and seemed devoid of seasoning.
The asparagus was the one thing that was pretty bad - it looked sad on the plate and aside from there only being like 5 stalks, they didn’t seem seasoned in any way and were tough to chew - I didn’t make it past the first stalk. I think the one thing this place has going for it is it’s in a beautiful area and the interior is very nice.
Overall, not a terrible experience or anything by any means but even if I went back I don’t think I’d get that dish again.
