    The highlight of the meal with steak tartare is the best we’ve ever had and the oysters and a half show were sublime, and we absolutely loved the tomahawk steak. The server was very attentive, friendly knowledgeable, and we greatly appreciated the extra Touches and recognition of our anniversary.
