After being seated at Dominick's I mentioned to the others at my table that today most steakhouses seem the same and expected a good meal and service, but nothing surprising from Dominick's. I have read some of the other reviews about service, butter cake, and other items just seemed fair. I disagree, but does all that really matter. I came to a steakhouse for a steak and Dominick's knocked it out of the park. I had an 8 oz. medium rare filet mignon and it was flavorful and tender. Actually I would say it is the best filet I have ever had. I really wanted to try the 18 oz. bone-in filet, but that is too much steak for me in one sitting. The only reason I rated Dominick's a 4 compared to a 5 was that personally I dig the old style feel and decor of the older steakhouses. Enjoy.

Just ok. My pedi was mediocre and the paint job was sloppy.

Went there yesterday night (8/9/13) because we purchased a Groupon. Now, I am NOT one of those people who, by default, think that all Indian food in the valley is horrible because it does not compare to my Mom's cooking. I am judging this place based on other Indian restaurants in the valley and the quality of food. Quantity of food - Really good. Ambience - Very nice. The decor is nice and pretty. I liked it. Service - decent. Taste of food - It was really bad. I am sorry to say it was boderline inedible. We ordered the chicken tikka masala, 2 plain naans and chicken biriyani. The chicken tikka masala was too "tomato-y". All I could taste was an overpowering tanginess from the tomato paste and it wasnt pleasant. The chicken wasnt soft and tender and flavorful either. The chicken biriyani was similarly tasteless. The rice in the biriyani was clumpy and overdone. You KNOW that is a cardinal sin while making biriyani....overdone rice!!! The naan wasnt like a naan at all but more like tandoori roti. My point in writing this is really to inform the owners. I think that, with a little bit of tweaking of the food, this place could be excellent! But unless they do that, we are not going back again.

The word "perfect" can been defined as, "having all the required or desirable elements, qualities, or characteristics; as good as it is possible to be." Based on that definition, the Stetson Chopped Salad at Cowboy Ciao is "perfect"! If I was a salmon, then ending up in this salad would be the perfect ending to my life. Ok, that sounds a little weirder to read that it did when it was in my head... but the point is that this salad is absolutely "to die for." For salmon, that is. The Berkshire Pork Belly comes crispy confit style with roasted Brussels sprouts, shallots, toasted almonds, cheese, and a Oaxacan chile honey drizzle. I don't have to tell you how good that sounds, just go back and read those ingredients again. Seriously, I'll wait... go read them again. Pork Belly makes me smile... Needless to say, the Pork Belly also came close to being perfect! But... even if the Pork Belly was not perfect, the excellent friendly, timely, and attentive service made this entire experience truly perfect. Way to go, Cowboy Ciao! In the words of the Governator, I'll be back!
