text: This review is based on two visits here recently I had never been here before and had heard great things from most people I was a little torn with the star review as the service was definitely very good and attentive but overall I have had equally good service and better food at many other steakhouses The decor is nice and fancy but I just cannot get past the foodnnFor the first visit I naturally went with a steak and chose the ribeye which turned out to be an average cut and preparation of meat It was marginally overcook past my desire for medium rare My criteria has always been if I can make a better steak at home why am I bothering to go out and pay extra for it and this steak fell into that category The fried oyster appetizer seemed to be thrown together with poorly fried oysters The best thing on the first visit was probably the calamarinnOn the second visit I thought that I would try a special for the night and I went with the scallops with ramps This meal wound up being a tale or meal of two stories with half my dish being bland and the other half being over salty By this I mean that half the scallops were under seasoned while the other half were over seasoned I am not even sure how this is possible I was halfway through the dish by the time I realized this was the case Again the calamari was the star of the evening other than the fancy wines being ordered by others during this business type dinner nnOne last thing I just wish that one steakhouse had the guts to try and venture out with some new side dishes other than the tired same ones found everywhere I guess the star of the show is the steak so they cannot or do not want to change the approach I think based on all that I have expressed meh I have had better is appropriate
