  • ReviewWhen I first walked into this restaurant I did not know what to expect. I was really surprised by how this restaurant was decorated. And you should see their bar. When you first walk into the bar, which is seperated from the rest of the restaurant, so see this huge wall of liquor which luminates the room. They also have cool chandalilers that hang down low and stone pillars and walls. There is 3 hd flat screens in the bar, which they show sports all the time. Real cool relaxed place to hang out, but with class.

    Ok enough about the bar, lets talk about the food and dinning area. Our table was a big booth which is under a real unique water feature. Kind of made you feel special. As soon as we where seated we where greated about 10 seconds later. Now mind they place also brews their own beers. So what did I get, yes a beer. I enjoyed a 32 oz. pitcher. This IPA is great. Perfect balance of hoppiness and bitterness. Awesome beer. My wife had a cantaloupe martini, which see enjoyed so much see got another one. The other 2 guys also had beers. One had the JT Light and the other an Amber. The light beer was real refreshing. No nasty after taste like you receive from most watered down beers. The amber was deep and nuty. Great beer. After enjoying our beers for awhile we order our apps, and our dinner at the same time. For starters we ordered nachos and the chicken avocado egg rolls. The nachos where huge, a meal with in themselves. The egg rolls where huge and tasty. Big chunks of avocado and chicken alon with all kinds of greatness. For dinner I ordered the filet mignon. Cool thing about it, it comes a la carte. So I order asparagus. The filet was a 12oz. order rare of course. I was AWESOME! that one great piece of meat. My wife order the wild mushroom penne pasta which I also ate half of. This dish was emormous. So much food. Big chunks of mushroom and flavor! My friends ordered a Buffalo burger. Yes buffalo. It was one of the tastiest burgers that I ever had. It came on a wheat bun with this real tasty home made spread lettuce and tomatoe. Once a again a huge portion, and it also came with fries. My other buddy got the jambalaya. Everything in this restaurant come in extra large. Huge chunks of sausage, emormous shrimp and the sauce was insame. It served on a bed of white rice, or pasta. what ever you want.

    The service and the food where great! Put that with a great atmosphere and a nice bar and you got me coming back. Awesome place have to visit.
