    My wife and I had a 4:30 PM reservation so we could try the price fix menu. Our appetizers, Caesar salad and oysters Rockefeller were excellent. The filet mignon entrées were perfect medium rare. My Pinot Noir and wife's old-fashioned were well-made with happy hour prices. Dessert was a delicious crème brûlée cheesecake. Our service was very pleasant and efficient. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and dining experience. I highly recommend the price fix $35 meal.
