What to Order
Strip Loin Steak
A perfectly cooked strip loin steak, often served with fries and a delicious aioli.

Espresso Martini
A well-crafted cocktail, perfect for a lively evening at the bar.
"enjoyed a London fog and an Espresso martini along with an amazing dessert with pistachio icecream and a fluffy torched marshmallow cream."

Dessert with Pistachio Ice Cream and Torched Marshmallow Cream
A delightful dessert featuring pistachio ice cream and a fluffy, torched marshmallow cream, though some suggest toasted almonds would enhance it further.
"an amazing dessert with pistachio icecream and a fluffy torched marshmallow cream. It was amazing however, we both agreed that it would taste even better with some toasted almonds! But, overall it was excellent!!"

Inside Scoop
- The restaurant can be very loud, making conversation difficult.
- Tables are spaced closely together.
- If ordering steak, ask for the sauce on the side to prevent it from being swimming in sauce.
- Be prepared for potentially long waits for drinks, which may not always be well-crafted.
- While some ingredients are premium, some accompaniments (like jarred horseradish or specific olives) might be underwhelming.
