Tonight I had the AWSOME Grilled Grass Fed Steak. Oh my, it was cooked perfectly!!
The proof is in my photos. The steak was so tender, so flavorful. I loved it!
For dessert I had my favorite chocolate dessert. The Flourless Chocolate Cake.
This is so amazing YOU MUST TRY THIS!!
For chocolate lovers this is truly death by chocolate! So good. I wish I could give this and this restaurant a triple thumbs up!!

Everything was delicious. The burger was really good and I enjoyed the fries. The veggies were nicely cooked. I've ordered the Kids Steak Plate a few times before and it's consistently flavorful and the portions are great. I will be ordering here again for sure.

The mac and Macaroni & Cheese null void do not get it doesn't even taste to the same grade as a generic mac and cheese from a grocerystore the mac and cheese desperneed needs a revamp. Sauce wa fresh and nuggests were a nice portion for an older child.

Tonight I had the tender herb Grilled Cage Free Chicken with the quinoa with tomato pesto and a Caesar salad. This was wonderful! I decided to throw caution to the wind and ordered the flourless chocolate cake. You HAVE TO try this! If you love chocolate this will make you melt!! I will post pictures but Ive already eaten half of the main dish! ; D

The seafood chowder is excellent, not too salty, with just the right spices, fresh ingredients. I appreciate that it wasn't too fishy and the flavors all complement each other! The Tomato bisque was quite tasty, lovely with the right amount of sweetness, yum! Everything was packaged well, healthy but not bland. The food was the right temperature. It's my first time eating from this restaurant and what a pleasant surprise to my palate, yes!!!! I will definitely order again!!! Thanks oh yeah, the side Caesar alas was fresh and delicious too!
