Logistics & Planning
Parking: Valet available in the evenings and weekends; limited metered street parking in surrounding blocks, garages nearby but can be expensive during peak hours
Dress code: Smart casual leaning dressy — jackets, dresses, or polished denim with nice shoes feel appropriate
Noise level: Moderate to lively — conversational at two-tops, louder in bar and peak weekend seatings
Weekend wait: 45–75 minutes without a reservation; bar seating may open sooner
Weekday lunch: Usually seated on time with a reservation; short wait for walk-ins
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Some thoughtful options — salads, vegetable sides, and a few pasta or grain preparations depending on season
Vegan options: Limited — sides can be adapted on request; call ahead if a fully vegan entrée is needed
Gluten-free options: Many steaks and raw-bar items are naturally gluten-free; staff can guide substitutions for sauces and sides
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Yes — the polished service, moody lighting, and strong wine program make it a classic first-date or celebration setting, especially if you want something upscale without feeling overly formal.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Sometimes — walk-ins can land bar or lounge tables earlier in the evening or late night, but prime weekend times typically require a reservation.
Is it kid-friendly? It skews adult and business-dinner focused; older kids and teens are fine for special occasions, but there are no kid-specific menus or amenities.
Best For
Better for: Highly consistent steaks, polished hospitality, and a broad wine and raw-bar program in a modern, scene-driven room
Skip if: You’re looking for a quiet, casual steakhouse, bargain-priced cuts, or a menu with extensive vegetarian and vegan mains
