    Drinks were well made and service was great. Appetizers were delicious. Only issue I have it with the ribeye. For right at $60 it was very small and maybe 1/2-3/4 inch thick. Max at 8oz I would say and anytime you get a small steak it is hard to get Med rare. Would almost have to sear it and serve. That was not worth the price imo. Had a good flavor but again was very small - menu doesn’t list the size either so I guess it’s one me to not have asked but no where close to 12-14 oz. All of the fish dishes were larger than my steak.
