The oyster bar was cool. Our server Sarah let us know that they are famous for fine steaks and choice seafood, meaning the best quality. We started with freshly shucked oysters-Falsa Bay. They were amazing, like they were just taken outta the sea! I got the bone in fillet and the roasted beet salad. Both were amazing! I wanna go... more

on a Sunday night, the inside was still fairly noisy; the wine selection is good, but don't expect any bargains; fish was well prepared, and service was attentive; overall a good experience. more

Pricey, like a Ruth's Chris. A step back in time to late 19th-century luxury Americana, like the U.S. Grant Hotel. I didn't feel like having steak so I had Crab Louis. It was a treat for the eye and palate, with generous portions of avocado, olives, and cucumbers accompanying the usual tomato, lettuce and egg. The crabmeat was top quality... more

Great variet of menu...surprisingly kid-friendly menu for an upscale place. Check out the T-Bone Halibut cooked anyway you like or the macaroni and cheese side is a winner. more

In SD for a convention and took clients out. Sat outside - great weather, why not? I'll tell you why not. the trains ran constantly and obviously SD has no quite zone ordinance. I even plugged my ears a few times because it's so piercing. But on to the food. Great wine list, caesar salad good, but TOO much dressing.... more
