Summary: The only thing saving this place is the steak and the dessert. Otherwise I wouldn’t consider going again. The shaken cocktails are watered down, but the stirred cocktails pretty good. The water they serve is disgusting. See if they maybe have other water you can pay extra for. Load up on the steak and mashed potatoes. Save room for the dessert.

More details:
First thing I noticed is the water they give you is some pretty bad tap water, wasn’t the worst but it was noticeable especially for the price point of the restaurant I’ve never had water this bad in Chico. I didn’t ask but it would be a good idea to see if they have other water available.
Water 5/10

The bread they serve you is amazing I think one is a sour dough and the other is I think a dark honey wheat. It tastes very similar to Outback Steakhouse bread.

We ordered the side car and the barrel aged selection and espresso martinis the shaken cocktails were very watered down which could be due to smaller ice cubes used to shake the cocktails because I noticed a lot of small ice chunks in those still I’ve had worse my girlfriend wanted to send the sidecar back but I just gave her my cocktail as it didn’t taste bad enough that I was willing to sent the cocktail back. The barrel aged selection cocktail as a stirred cocktail was perfect. The glasses they use for all their cocktails are very excessively sized and the martini glasses are super thick and don’t sit in the hands very comfortably also they’re not the kind of upper endglass ware one would expect for the price point.
Cocktails Shaken: 5/10
Cocktails stirred: 8/10
Glassware 5/10

Prawns were alright and the sauce was alright but the plating was pretty funny just seems weird to plate prawns on a bed of lettuce. Wasn’t very visually pleasing and seems kinda wasteful as it doesn’t feel like you are supposed to eat the lettuce, at the same time if a person wanted lettuce they would order a salad.
Prawns: 6/10

10 ounce dry aged ribeye rare was some of the best I’ve had. I think a lot of steak houses get rare steak wrong but the crust was spectacular while the inside was perfect and the steak just melts in your mouth and the seasoning and butter is spectacular. The mashed potatoes were amazing. Also comes with a baked head of garlic which paired everything together so well.
10/10

Scallops were amazing, great sear on them and really nice texture. The spinach with garlic was nice but the scalloped sweet potatoes weren’t anything to rave over. My girlfriend found them too sweet and not seasoned very well.
7/10

The dessert trio we ordered with the crème brûlée, banana cheesecake, and the cookie brownie was pretty good. Not a lot of resturaunts do good desserts and I would but a whole cheesecake if they sold it and take it home. The crème brûlée was good the cookie brownie was meh.
Cheesecake 10/10
Crème brûlée 9/10
Brownie cookie 8/10

Location is perfect, quiet, comfortable, servers are really nice we ate outside and the lighting is comfortable and they have warmers outside. There’s no lobby so while you wait for your table you are trying not to be in the way of the people sitting in the front. Bathrooms, super tiny, not well placed and not very nice but it’s an old building and not the worst steakhouse bathroom I’ve seen plus expansion would take a lot from their relativly limited seating.

We had such a great time! Our server was excellent. Our food was delicious, as expected. My husband got a giant steak. The garlic mashed potatoes were fluffy and flavourful. The asparagus was perfectly steamed, cooked with a slight crunch. I got a deconstructed wellington, with a mushroom duxelle puff pastry! So divine! 🤩 like a piece of art on my plate! It was a great time. The Old Fashioned drink hit the spot and the real maraschino cherry was dark, rich, and sweet. We hadn’t been here in over ten years but we finally found a way. Thanks for a lovely evening.

It would have been nice If they got our steak orders right, And the waiters did their jobs like pouring more wine and water when needed, and removed our dirty dishes in a timely manor. And then kicked us out because they needed to flip more tables.
I would like to suggest they expand their establishment with a larger waiting area instead of going to the bar to wait or sit at these little tables for only two people. The cooks need to pay more attention to the plates they are serving, They looked like the food was slopped on the plates, like my roasted garlic was upside down with the black ugly roots showing in an unappetizing way. Also the wedge Salad showed no talent at all in its making. Other than that and a few other things, this is just another example of a Hoity-toity want to be Ruth Chris steak house that will do just fine for the Butte County area.

GREAT steaks. Filet Mignon is a must have. You can't go wrong with the Mash Potatoes. Our favorite Place to eat! We come here often! Its worth it. LOVE the outdoor seating around the fire pits.
