Overpriced and Disappointing May 5th, 2005
The service was terrible. It took them 15 minutes to shuck 1/2 dozen oysters. Steak came, but didn't see waiter again, for 20 minutes to ask for sour creme for potato. When going to the bathroom I was almost run over by an overzealous kitchen hand with a laden aluminum cart. The steak was good, but nothing exceptional. I would not recommend this excuse for a restaurant. If you're going for steak, try somewhere else.

Great steak, but otherwise a disappointment Feb 8th, 2005
My husband and I loved both our steaks. However, that was the only thing we loved. And that was after I sent my steak back to the kitchen because it was undercooked. My baked potato was like the ones served in school cafeterias and my crabcake appetizer was absolutely horrible. At $16, it is way overpriced. There were crunchy pieces of shells in it, and it's not even lumpmeat crab! In addition, there was an extremely loud and obnoxious group seated right next to us. I know this is a tricky situation for restauranteurs, as they do not wish to offend either party, but seeing as the restaurant was not even half-full, they should have offered to move us to another table. Bottom line, if you just want a piece of meat, go here. If you want a side dish, good service and decent choices for wine to go along with it, skip this place.

Something Missing Oct 8th, 2003
This place has most everything to rank in the big leagues of steak restaurants nationally EXCEPT a decent wine list - very unexceptional, not a single Spanish wine, a number of adaquate offerings but little of any excitement. Moreover, in more than a half dozen visits I've never encountered anybody who is knowledgeable about wine. Unfortunately I now know that I can't get everything I want from a blowout steak dinner at Bobby Vans. And what a pity because I love their Porterhouse.
