Steak Loft

After the 2nd steak came back oddly cooked, we decided to give up. Note to the management: after you mess up a 2nd steak you should probably not charge for it. Anyway, I used to like this place as a kid but I think that's the last time we'll go. Touristy and no longer worth the trip.

Waitress was. Wry pleasant, but confused us about the taking our drink order, then dinner order, and sending us to the salad bar. The blue cheese dressing was too "Sysco" and had strong vinegar overtones for our taste. I ordered twin 4oz filet, which came too bloody and were sent back to be cooked a little more. They were out of steak fries, and brought shoe string fries instead but the brought a baked potato. The drink was ok. Probably not go back again.

The Steak Loft didn't smell or look like a run-down high school lunch room like my first choice for dinner, the Friendly's across the street.  The parking lot was full, which gave me a good impression.  I was surprised to have 4 hostesses greet me and continue to be surprised when my waitress was very busy with many tables.  Why have 4 hostesses hardly working and one waitress working hard?  I didn't understand.  Regardless, the food was excellent!  I had the chowder, and my lady had a salad to start.  Both were delicious.  I had rib eye with a baked potato.  My well done rib eye was tasty and the baked potato was perfect.  My lady's mashed potatoes was delicious and her sirloin was as good as my rib eye.  All in all, I enjoyed my meal.  There wasn't much of an energy at the restaurant, but maybe its because I had an early dinner.  I personally felt the prices were undeservedly too high taking in the total experience.  I was happy to have dodged Friendly's.
