The steak I had was one of the best I have ever had. Cooked to perfection, it was paired with carmelized onions that complemented well with the delicious garlic mash potatos. The service was wonderful as expected. I will return!
Pros: Steak, location
Cons: busy, make reservations

The food is hands down delicious. My boyfriend and I started off with the split pea soup and the caesar salad. Although the salad was fine (I'm not sure how you can make caesar salad more than fine) the soup was really tasty. They also provide a cute garlic/herbed bread that is baked individually. We both had filet mignons, I had mine Oscar style and he had his Gorgonzola encrusted. Although both steaks were a tad bit overdone, we enjoyed them tremendously and loved different styling. He thought the Gorgonzola steak was the best steak he ever had. We also had a whipped potato and sauteed spinach accompaniments which were on the small side but decent as far as sides go. The desserts were fantastic (one of the best creme brulees I've had and a rich chocolate rich). We talked a bit to the sommelier about the wines and he ended up gifting us two copies of the Great American Wine Guide which was a very sweet gesture. The service was spot on and it made for a very romantic night out.
Pros: food, service, wine list
Cons: price

The first time we went to Bonfire we were sitted at one of the small table close to the bar/grill. It's wasn't that romantic, but we really liked the food, and decided to come back, and ask specifically for the main dining room. We got it, and it was a totally different experinence ! You're sitted on these big royal chairs, in this quite dark place, and you feel like a medieval king/queen. The food was great the first time, and apparently even better the many times after, when we were in the main dining room. They have one of the best seared tunas in town, and the steaks are cooked to perfection, big and tasty, well worth a steak-house. We discovered the Grand Marnier flight, it's a great way to finish a wonderful meal. We love to take out-of-town friends here, they are always impressed.
Pros: ambiance, food

You definitely get your money's worth here. Food is great, service is great. Had a mixed grill of Crab cake, stuffed chicken and a filet. Wasn't too crazy about the stuffed chicken but everything else was perfect. Very clean, very professional. But as another reviewer said, there's quite the turnover of staff here. Felt like every course was delivered by a different person.
Pros: Food is GREAT
Cons: None

I made reservations at the Oak Room for Valentine's Day. I called the restaurant the afternoon of our dinner to make sure it would be ok to wear jeans. The man I spoke to said it was fine as long as I called ahead before and said he would leave a message for the manager. Upon arrival, we were seated quickly when the manager came to our table to inform me that I could not wear jeans. I explained to him that someone was supposed to leave him a note and said it was fine. He brought me to the lobby where they actually had a pair of khaki's in my size waiting for me. It was slightly insulting but at the same time very generous. After that was over, I ordered the surf and turf(filet with a lobster tail) which was incredible. The filet was the highest quality beef I had ever had. Deserts were great(and on the house because of the mishap) and the decor and ambience is definitely something that one should experience. Extremely impressive!!
Pros: Service, Ambience, Food....they truly cater to each individual table
Cons: most expensive meal i've ever had....but still worth it

For an upscale evening, a special occasion or just something different, this is your ticket. The classic Italian Steak House has all of the traditional meats, sides and apps you can think of, but it also offers a nice twist on a few fronts. The Philly Cheese Steak spring rolls are simply out of this world and the Eggplant Parmesan side is also fantastic Don't skip the mac-n-cheese and definitely think about springing for the Kobe Beef steak. 10 oz. of phenomenal food! If you are looking for a nice steak dinner, look no further. If steak isn't your thing, there are plenty of non-meat dishes and a host of Italian entrees as well. In my view, this is better than S&W and Grill 23, although the ambiance is different at all three. For something different, sit at the kitchen bar in Davios, and watch the magic unfold before your eyes.
Pros: Food is amazing! Apps, sides, etrees and desert!!!
Cons: can be pricy

KO Prime has done everything right! Great food and great service. Chef Jamie Bissonnette's take on a new high end steak house is fantastic. The steaks were cooked perfectly, the short rib mac and cheese is to die for and the mushrooms are the best in the city! Good thing i didn't listen to any of the reviews below, obviously they were done by people that either never eat out, never worked in a restaurant on have no taste buds.
Pros: Food
Cons: nothing

I read this guys review and I got upset. I?ve been going to Royals for 20 years, since it opened, and I love it. This guy goes there once and thinks he knows the place. I don?t know any other place that has faster service and great food. The lovely ladies behind the counter always help me make the right selection, but you can never go wrong with the Super roast beef sandwich, all around, on an onion roll. But if you want seafood, try their HUGE Fresh fish sandwich with the best tarter sauce?. I just made myself hungry, I?m going to Royals.
Pros: Best food around

The choice of cuts of steak is huge - who knew there were so many. Everything is sold ala carte, so the bill adds up a bit quickly. Everythings well prepared and delicious
