Beyond steaks, the menu includes notable items such as nilgai carpaccio, pork belly, and various seafood offerings like lobster and sea bass. The dining atmosphere features Hill Country decor and provides options for private events and group dining.
Located on Ross Ave in the historic West End district of downtown Dallas, the restaurant is situated near the Dallas World Aquarium and the Sixth Floor Museum.
