  Pricy, but good.
  
  I've eaten here several times and the food is always done properly. You can order your steak rare and they're fine with it, which indicates local beef (or at least not the sort of beef that gets pumped full of antibiotics while still a cow. You know, the type of beef that gets washed with ammonia at the processing plant before being shipped. The kind that has to be burned in order to be "safe" for people to eat...)

  The steak was beautifully cooked and, more importantly, rested before being plated - a really big thing with me. If you take anything away from this review, let it be these two points:
  
  1 - if they say that they cook to medium or well only, don't eat the steak. Go for the pasta.
  2 - never cut into a piping hot steak. The meal should rest in order to be properly enjoyed.

  Nice interior, good wine list, good for groups. I ate at the bar solo one night, which was also nice. The staff was friendly and will remember your name when you return, which I think is a good sign.
