Good atmosphere, bad food ”

The gorgonzola fondue appetizer was huge & delicious, and the 24-layer chocolate cake was good (but the only thing worth writing home about is the size). ”
- “
The chocholate cake was somewhat overrated but not bad. ”
- “
In addition, the service was terrible, the food was just "dropped off" without any conversation and we were not even asked if we wanted coffee before the dessert was also simply "dropped off. ”
- “
The dessert was pretty horrible. ”
- “
When the manager found out it was my birthday, she sent over a slice of the 24 layer cake, which was very rich and sweet, just the way a chocolate cake should be. ”
- “
The chocolate cake is big, and great. ”

Our steaks were perfectly cooked -- my filet, which I ordered rare with extra char, was impeccable. ”

The green beans were completely undercooked, and my snapper, which was just decent, was served on some sort of frothy green liquid. ”
- “
For sides I really enjoyed the Romanov Potatoes (It was like a big puff of fluffy scalloped potato with cheese) and my guest the garlic green beans which were crisp and delicious. ”

This place is all about gimmick and needs to spend more energy on creating good food. ”
