Reviews
First and foremost, the layout and theme and decoration of the restaurant was stunning and beautiful. It has that sort of Victorian and anthropomorphic vibes which is very cool! The food didn’t disappoint either, the oysters were very fresh and the sauce on it is strong, spicy, and delicious, top 3 oysters I’ve had in my life. The sliders were also very good, patty was juicy and the bun was toasted and crispy. The chicken tenders were crunchy and tender and juicy and the sauce was like fancy ranch with caviar which was amazing. Definitely coming back and would order the same dishes but more food next time. The Empire approves.
This place was so great! Made reservations (we weren't sure how busy it was going to be) but it was right when they opened and it was fabulous not too busy at all! The vibe of the restaurant was awesome. The decor was fun to look at too. The food and drinks were yummy, we couldn't decide so we tried a couple different things. The truffle fries are a definite must!
Hubby and I visited here to try out the elk chops. Grew up in the country, so we both have eaten various types of meat. We had the frog legs and they were super delicious. The elks chops were really good as well. I would say a mix of beef and venison. Prepared nicely. Enjoyed something different. Small venue, the waitress was friendly.
Great meal with optional “exotic” meats. The standout dishes for use was the salt & pepper frog legs, bison steak tartare, and the bone in elk chops. We also had the venison sliders, which were juicy, but it needed less bun. The chops were very tender and there was plenty of sauce to accompany with the meat. Overall a great meal and we left exceptionally full.
I started off with the fried chicken and caviar. Odd combination but I figured I’d give it a try. The flavors were all over the place. I didn’t like it, but finished it. I figured I’d try another item. I got the hunters chicken. It really lacked flavor. I don’t really know what the chef was trying to do. A little less than $100 for me alone. I stopped by a grocery store on the way back to my hotel and grab a sandwich. Rave reviews are what brought me into the restaurant. So I felt inclined to leave one.
