Inside Scoop

  • This restaurant is walk-in only, so expect significant wait times, especially on weekends and evenings.
  • Consider arriving right at opening (noon) or during off-peak hours to avoid the longest waits.
  • The space is quite small and can feel cramped, with some seating options like barrel tables or bar stools being less comfortable.
  • Service can be inconsistent; while some staff are praised for being attentive and friendly, others have been described as rigid or having an attitude.
  • The 48 oz signature steak is excellent but takes an hour to cook and is best shared among 4-5 people.
