I was looking for a great steak and stumbled upon this place while in California. Order it medium rare, it came medium as in not much pink. Sin. Besides that, nice atmosphere and mixed drinks are perfect. I'd go again honestly.

Came here on a weeknight with a reservation but probably didn't need one because it wasn't super busy.
My friend & I started with the pork belly which was really good. Super rich but melted in your mouth like butter.
They didn't have a bourbon menu, our waitress said they were working on it, but she recommended a whiskey she liked which ended up being delicious.
For our main course we both had the steak & frites (comes with bone marrow). I had mine rare and my friend had it medium rare. I didn't see too much of a difference between the way it was cooked but it leaned more toward the rare side which I didn't mind. The steak was fantastic, cooked & seasoned to perfection. The bone marrow was great, I dipped my fries in it.
Over all we had a great experience. The food was great, the price wasn't crazy and the service was very friendly and knowledgeable. I definitely recommend this place and will come back. :)

I was taken here for my birthday. I'll be back -- the place is a knockout. The staff is delightful, the drinks are well made and delicious, the steaks are very nicely prepared. I had the New York steak medium rare and it came out perfect. My friend ordered the filet with equal success. Highly recommended.

The seating area was empty but my family and I were seated in the back. We waited patiently for the food for over an hour. When our two smoked salmon salads came the salmon tasted more like sashimi. When we got our two burgers the medium was undercooked and the medium rare was overcooked and tasted burnt. The cheese tasted like it was cooked yesterday. There was an overhaul of unsalted fries. When the server gave us our change he almost forgot 5 dollars. This place is absolutely terrible and I'm not surprised considering it was run by two servers. I would never recommend and will never come here again.

Best Ribeye I've every had (not hyperbole)!
Went here for a birthday dinner and everyone was impressed with their meal. The Bourbon Burger was great, the Mac and Cheese was fantastic, and the Ribeye was phenomenal!
Minus one star because we found ourselves looking for our waitress on more than one occasion and the restaurant is relatively small.

Under staffed food was inconsistently cooked ordered 2 burgers both medium one perfect the other burned well.
Table next to us complained about steaks being overcooked.
Beer on tap was 2/3rd gone on a Tuesday night!
Dessert was tasty and really small.

Came here for my ninth wedding anniversary dinner....oh. My. God. The ginger beer brined pork rack was PHENOMENAL, and it paired PERFECTLY with the delectable macaroni and cheese. Our dinner was splendid, and they brought us a chocolate chip bread pudding with caramel sauce for dessert (on the house)! We will absolutely be coming back!

Food is really good, but a something has happened to the service. They cleaned house and the friendly guys with the moustaches are no longer there. They have an all female staff that seems young and inexperienced. As a customer paying $18 for a burger, I want the service to be in line with the pricing. This place feels cheap and rushed now, but the prices are still expensive. A groupon is not enough make me come back.
