My friend and I went to experience the steakhouse for the first time last night ,as we share a birth date, and were drawn by the free dinner as such.
We were greeted by our server Cody and seated at a nice booth. I was impressed by the decor of the restaurant, the comfortable seating and warm atmosphere.
We started out our dinner with the bacon wrapped and wood grilled scallops which were delicious and tender. For a moment, I thought I was back on Guy Lombardo Ave. on the Nautical Mile back in Freeport, Long Island N.Y. Scallops worthy of a fine seafood restaurant. Our bread and salad arrived next, and I thought they were quite good, although I am not really a salad and bread guy. We both upgraded to the larger Porterhouse steak from the complimentary T-Bone. Great choice-although I am sure the T-Bone would have been just as tasty. Onto the Porterhouse. My steak was the best I have ever had, truly. I thought I knew good steak..........Wow! This steak was so tasty that I can not even begin to describe it. The marbeling of fat content, the texture and flavor ! You can not make this steak at home, period. You have to come here to get it. Whatever the aging process,combined with the choice of cattle, to the woods used and the cooking techniques- just the best.
All said, I thought that this was a great place with great food and service. I am sorry I have not been here before. Many times I have passed this place by in the last 30 years I have lived here. I had no idea that this place was such a remarkable treasure. I had always assumed it was just another average steakhouse on U.S. 19, not so.
My advice, go try it and see what a real steak should be!
