The bar is great - the only place to get a Jack Daniels Perfect Manhattan straight up that is made perfectly every time. The food is outstanding; steaks magnificent & done right, lobster as you like it, delicious & tender no matter the size you order. Even a "lowly" chopped steak is just wonderful. The wait staff is attentive - there when you need them but not at all intrusive - they make you feel like family not a customer. They serve lunch and dinner.
