About the restaurant

For over 25 years, we have devoted our culinary efforts to one basic principle:Serve the finest quality steak of a more than generous portion with consistency that never varies. This is what we strive to do and always with the warmest personal service.

We still hand-cut every steak when you place your order tableside. It’s not the easiest way, but quality never is. This allows us to make sure that every steak that leaves our kitchen is consistently succulent and flavorful.

This is our pledge to you. Join us!

We have been coming to this restaurant for ten or more years. Every birthday, every anniversary, every reason to celebrate. Tonight our waitress, Liz, was the best waitress/waiter we ever had!!!! She’s simply the best!! Very personable, very hospitable, and checked on us to make sure every thing we had was to Keith Youngs standards. From our cocktails to steaks, she was on it!! We will be back and will be asking for Liz from here on out. Thank you Liz, if you see this. You made my birthday special, and did a fabulous job. Best in all our years.

We are locals and return customers to this wonderful Warehouse District steakhouse. Our cocktails were expertly crafted, and the Tuna Napoleon and Shrimp Remoulade starters were delicious; the Salmon and Filet entrees were perfectly cooked, accompanied by glasses of Merlot and Sauvignon Blanc. Thank you for another great dining experience, with friendly, attentive and professional service by Brian’s waiter team.
