On 3/31/2025 David Hoffman had this to say:
We had the tenderloin special, and we were NOT disappointed. This place is a gem hidden and tucked out of the way in a strip mall. We'll be back.

Went there with a large group, I'm not sure, but I doubt if reservations were made or not. But they took care of us. My first time there, it won't be my last
