J. Gilbert's

First time trying this restaurant which happened to be on Thanksgiving. They were super busy, but seemed to do a great job of handling the crowd. First off, Jody (might have been Jodi), was AMAZING waitress. She's engaging, but not overbearing and her positive demeanor really made the dinner a great event. We started our meal off with a glass of Meiomi Pinot Noir with shrimp cocktails. Oddly enough, one shrimp cocktail was amazing with firm, juicy, fresh shrimp and the other was hard and a different texture. It was almost like one was shrimp and the other prawns? I switch out with my wife as I can tolerate a lot. That was a disappointment, but we were not going to send something back given how packed the place was. The good shrimp cocktail was amazing and probably the best cocktail I’ve ever had. Our main course was maple plank salmon and tomahawk steak. My steak was perfect and her salmon was delightful. My brussels sprouts had a great flavor and texture but the cauliflower was cold and bland. The steak carried the meal, but as a cauliflower lover that was disappointing. I’m assuming they were just busy and honestly trying to keep up with the crowd. The deserts were Creme Brulé and fresh berries. No complaints, they were wonderful. We’ll be back, but I have to stick with 4 stars for now as our bill was north of $300 and we tipped well. For that price point the meal has to be spot on. I would give Jody six stars and I hope we end up in her section in the future.

The food was pretty good. The steak definitely had a wood-fired flavor. But it wasn't exceptional. The sides were average. The service was fine. Again, nothing special. We were in a relatively isolated location with a nice fireplace and very few other tables, but the main dining room was quite noisy when we passed it. It's just a traditional steakhouse. It's not special in any way and not on our list of "have to go there again."

Just had brunch here, and everything was fantastic! It was a really cozy and comfortable atmosphere with lots of options for the unlimited brunch. The manager, Misty, was so nice to us and encouraged my friend and I who hadnt seen each other in a long time to stay as long as we liked. It was so nice not to feel rushed. 10/10 and will be back to try dinner!

We made a reservation for a group of 9 for a birthday and we had a great experience! Food was probably 3.5/5 but the service was 5/5! Jodi our server was the sweetest waitress I’ve had in a very long time. She was very accommodating to our large group, all with a genuine smile on her face. Roman our other server was very helpful as well. We got lobster Mac and cheese and the mushroom risotto as sides which were excellent! The filet mignon was average, and the wagyu burger was the most disappointing dish we ordered— I ordered it medium done but it was definitely well done with crispy ends and no signs of pink in the middle so it was too dry. Our friends got the special with the lobster tails which you should also probably stay away from as it was very overcooked. However, the sweet service made up for it all. They brought out the cake we brought and even served complimentary dessert for the birthday boy. We had a great night!

Very high marks for service and atmosphere. The slight dings on food are, while they are outstanding for steaks and salmon, some of their lesser dishes like fish tacos don't really cut it. The fish tacos were generally non-descript, with little fish. Mashed potatoes side came out room temp. Chicken tortilla soup was very good, but not at the same par as with leads noted. Salads were excellent!

The food was good but I felt there were a couple things missing. I ordered poblano au gratin potatoes, but there was no flavor or poblano that could be detected. The steak was supposed to come with garlic butter, but that wasn't on the stake either. The crab cake was proportional, but was a little on the fishy side. The onion rings are delicious and go great with all of the sauces they provided. Not pictured is the creme brulee which was so good I could have eaten it by myself but was ultimately shared by three people. The atmosphere was comfortable and the sound level was such that we could still carry on a conversation at the table. Will likely come back.
