We were greeted by friendly staff and a beautiful view of the marina but then things went downhill. My son and I had steaks (he had a $60 filet mignon and I had the NY Strip). My son steak was clearly the end piece and...not a nice round cut that you would expect for $60. The top half was cooked well but the bottom was raw. We sent it back and they threw it onto the grill again. Definitely not a place that is going to start again. It came back a few minutes later at a better temperature but it was still pretty tough. My NY strip was over cooked and beyond tough. They gave me a steak knife but I needed a chainsaw. Oddly the top and bottom was white from being over cooked but the middle was red. It was like they pulled it out of the freezer, nuked it and then threw it on the grill. I really struggle to understand how to make a steak so bad. I had already sent one steak back and wasn’t going to start arguing over the other. My daughter had spaghetti and meatballs which were good so maybe pasta is a better bet here. They said the meatballs were made with wagu beef but I am pretty skeptical of that. My wife had the fresh fish of the day which was covered in sauce but fine. More
