Jeff Ruby’s is my favorite place to go! It’s the only restaurant I choose when I’m craving a great steak. I also love that the salad and potato are included with the meal, which makes the experience even better. And the American Cherry Mule is my absolute favorite drink there. Everything is always fantastic!

Dinner was great at Seasons 52. They have a wide selection of entree choices and their menu changes seasonally. My husband ordered the lamb loin and couldn't have been happier with his choice. I sampled some and it was some of the best lamb I've ever had. I enjoyed the beet salad and one of the flatbreads. Both were excellent!! And the extensive wine list always has something to perfectly complement your meal.

We had dinner on the upstairs, outdoor patio. It was a perfect evening. Fantastic ambience, friendly and professional staff, and the food and wine were exceptional. Best Arancini in town, as well as the Eggplant Parmesan, a family recipe from Puglia. Love this place.
