The
first
thing
you
notice
in
a
restaurant
is
ambience.
This
location
definitely
needs
a
facelift
because
it
just
kind
of
feels
like
a
used
to
be
popular
steakhouse
from
the
90s.
Online
it
says
$$$$,
so
I
expected
a
lot
better
atmosphere.
Even
the
shape
of
the
bar,
table
cloths
that
don’t
touch
the
ground,
rainbow
mood
lighting
(?),
clunky
bar
stools,
upholstered
booths
look
like
they
had
a
fabric
pattern
that
should
be
on
the
carpet
at
a
movie
theater.
Moving
onto
food,
we
weren’t
terribly
hungry
so
we
each
got
a
salad.
Good.
The
tomato
and
burrata
salad
was
great!
I
love
a
good
wedge
and
this
had
a
healthy
amount
of
bleu
cheese
crumbles
and
bacon.
Dessert
was
a
different
story.
I
was
really
excited
about
the
Keylime
pie
and
our
bartender,
server
convinced
us
that
it
wasn’t
good,
as
well
as
the
mousse
cake
was
not
good
and
probably
the
best
thing
was
Basque
cheesecake.
Threw
me
off
for
someone
to
convince
me
not
to
get
something
I
came
for
but
we
decided
to
go
with
the
mousse
cake.
The
way
he
had
described
it
was
beautiful,
unfortunately
they
have
changed
the
recipe
over
the
years,
and
didn’t
execute
it
very
well.
The
mousse
was
granulated
and
overly
sweet.
The
middle
layer
was
supposed
to
have
a
crunch
to
it,
it
did
not.
And
the
base
layer
was
almost
like
a
tres
leches
soaked
cake.
Neither
of
us
wanted
it,
which
is
unfortunate
because
the
description
made
it
sound
amazing.
Second
attempt
was
a
Basque
cheesecake.
The
highlight
of
a
Basque
cheesecake
is
the
burnt
part,
(which
is
intentional)
And
though
the
burn
should
be
a
beautiful
dark
brown
color,
it
was
masked
with
whipped
cream.
When
something
is
masked,
it’s
typically
because
there’s
a
mistake,
in
my
opinion.
There
was
barely
a
burn
to
it,
it
actually
came
out
quite
light
in
color
and
it
honestly
looked
like
somebody
had
plopped
it
on
the
plate.
Disappointing
presentation.
The
flavor
was
fine,
but
the
cheesecake
probably
had
too
many
eggs
in
it
or
was
over
mixed,
so
the
eggs
scrambled.
It
fell
apart,
not
in
a
good
way.
The
homemade
whip
cream
and
vanilla
on
glaze
were
very
tasty,
but
the
accompanyment
shouldn’t
be
the
favorite
part.
I
was
grateful
that
our
bartender/server
made
it
right
with
the
dessert.
But
I
don’t
think
I
could
go
back
to
the
steakhouse
based
off
of
the
ambience,
and
poor
quality
desserts.
I
appreciated
the
bartender/servers
honesty,
but
this
restaurant
fell
short
of
expectations
for
an
Elways
steakhouse,
especially
attached
to
a
Ritz
Carlton.
