He also wrote that he couldn’t believe that he only had to pay $33 for a three-course meal, continuing to compliment the excellent service and great work.

Another wrote that the value and the food were very satisfying. The sides, steak, and lobster tail were just to his liking and the ambience was also quite nice. He was not very delighted by the attentiveness (or lack thereof) of his waitress. He believes that the restaurant is a must-visit.

One of the Google Reviews read that the three-course meal of the restaurant is very worth it and delicious. The design of the restaurant was described as cozy and the service was amazing. The review urged and recommended that people visit there for dates and groups.

But not everybody loves the restaurant and its services, one of the customer reviews was about how uncomfortable, disappointing, and expensive their whole experience was. They wrote that the chairs were un-comfy, and the food quality was below average.

Not only this, but they also wrote about particular dishes like how their corn chowder was tasteless and small sized, how the lobster burger had a very small lobster in it, with dry, witty, and stale meat patty, lettuce, and tomatoes. Simply state, they were not happy campers.

If steak is your thing, you’re in luck! Their delicious signature York steak with Merlot Demi-glace is not to be missed. The portion size is generous and perfectly cooked, just as it should be.

Or try their Lobster Tail if you’re feeling extra fancy – they really know how to treat their seafood right! If those aren’t to your liking, there’s always their Lobster Burger or Crispy Shrimp.
