Jim PoehlmanMay 17, 2013It's my First time here but it won't be my last. AMAZING! I'm from Omaha where the steak houses are over the top good. I'd drive from Omaha to this place just to eat!
Eric TruittFebruary 10, 2012Great Prime Rib. Best in the metro. Large salad bar. Some have said the prices were high, but for what you get, it is comparable to other steak houses in the area, and you won't slip on peanut shells
Jennifer ConnellyMarch 4, 2018Prime Rib is the best in town!! Salad bar is amazing! Warm and cozy atmosphere...perfect for any occasion!
Roger HudsonAugust 21, 2010This is the son of the owner of the Chicago Speakeasy. Similar setup, but the food and service is better here. Great prime rib. Great salad bar!
Ryan DayMarch 2, 2012Salad bar was awesome. Service was great. Prices are NOT high when considering the quality and quantity.
Debbie WApril 4, 2017Salad had wilted leaves, medium well prime rib was red, baked potato was not fresh, but starchy and sticky, bread was stale; I'm not happy!😞
Brandon BeattieDecember 19, 2011I had the best steak I've ever had here! Price is a little high, but was worth it- Best French dip in Des Moines area on small loaf of bread! Not on menu-special request.
Chris MendenhallSeptember 29, 2010Awesome food and awesome service. It's definitely a must try - because you'll be coming back for more.
Jerry WurtzApril 6, 2014I made the mistake of ordering grilled salmon at a steakhouse. The salmon in opinion was ugly. It was over cooked and leathery. Other than a poorly prepared salmon , the service was great. . .
Greg SwanDecember 21, 2011The wood paneling here came from old growth forests filled with wildlife. The very best kind of lumber if you ask me.
Shelly Maher HughesApril 29, 2012Rudest treatment I have EVER received from a public establishment. Asked to speak to owner & Mgr said HE said he was too busy & wanted us to leave the premises immediately?! Incredibly inappropriate.
Ian CoonMay 13, 2012Buyer beware: even if the waiter messes up your order, you are still stuck with paying for it. Very unhappy!
Cassi WigginsApril 9, 2012Service was terrible during lunch and food took forever. Oreo fluff was superb though.
