After all the good reviews I decided to give this place a try. They do no advertising so all business is by word of mouth. The location on 9th street in Durham is great and very accessible with a good amount of parking nearby. We went on a Friday and were able to make reservations that day for dinner that night. The restaurant itself is beautiful and romantic and the staff was amazing. Not only was our waitress very good, but all the staff made a point to add something to our experience. \r
We had Caesar salads, filet mignon for her and New York Strip for me, baked potato, spinach alfredo, and a slice of cheesecake. These were two of the best steaks we had ever had (comparing them to Sullivan's and Ruth's Chris -- although the prices were MUCH better) and the potato fell apart in your mouth, not to mention how great the salad and cheesecake were. The complimentary bread came with a jalapeno, cilantro, cream cheese spread that was outstanding as well. \r
All in all, this was a great find! If you've been looking for that hidden gem in downtown Durham, this is it!
Pros: Staff, Food, Restaurant itself
Cons: None.
