Meal - Nutley

We ordered 18 clams and 18 oysters. The clams were plump and definitely the standout dish. However, some of the oysters were not shucked properly and had shell bits mixed in. We also tried the Mini Drunken Garlic Bread (with spicy vodka sauce, mozzarella, and bruschetta), which was my least favorite. It was quite heavy and filling. The Truffled Meal Chips (blue cheese fondue, bacon, scallions) were pretty good but also fairly heavy, as I had expected. I didn’t really detect any truffle flavor in them, though. The Cheeseburger and Chips was the highlight of the meal. It was just a straightforward, simple cheeseburger, but sometimes that’s all you really want—just meat and cheese, with no embellishments or sauces. Overall, I would consider coming back for the happy hour food specials, but only if I'm in the area. I'd likely stick to the clams and the cheeseburger. A helpful tip: if you pay with cash, you’ll receive a 4% discount.

This was our favorite steakhouse and restaurant in North NJ at their original location, and they've kept the same high standards. The best steak in the state. The spaghetti carbonara was excellent, though I'd prefer crisp pancetta. Cocktails, appetizers, and desserts are always original and refined: you never get something that isn't ready for prime time. One of the best dining experiences in the tri-state area.

The absolutely best dinner I have had out in years. The Steak to die for, everything was incredible and what made it even better was the service. On point with everything. The atmosphere was perfect. Janine the best bartender. Makes every drink you can dream of with a smile and awesome conversation. MEAL you must try it if you have not already.

The food was amazing. Staff was very friendly and quick. Definitely recommend this place.

After browsing through other one-star reviews, I’m curious to see how the owner responds, especially considering their somewhat aggressive style. Such responses suggest a lack of professionalism; it doesn’t seem like a true restaurateur is running this place. In 2017, I couldn't get enough of this restaurant. Every visit was fantastic—the steak was perfection, the cocktails were delightful, and the service was usually excellent. I've been a loyal patron since before they had a liquor license, and I even preferred those days! (LOL)
