My dining experience was absolutely incredible. I wasn't sure what to expect. We were dining in celebration of my husband's birthday. Pros: The small quaint 11 tables dim light ambiance w an eye-catching wine cellar back wall. It was just a calming fine dining experience. Cons: No substitutions with the entrees. (1) Being asked, was there a SPECIAL event on two occasions... keep in mind that I mentioned that it was my husband's birthday! Which I mentioned during the time of my reservations. (2) I still had to let the wait staff know that I was celebrating my husband's birthday after the dessert and check was bought to us. (3) I asked for the table by window before we actually sat at the table being assigned. And told that it was another reservation - low and behold the older couple that was sat there was 1st timers dining as well! So, it wasn't actually a "SPECIAL" reservation. (4) the beignets were gooey in the middle. Sierra was phenomenal and very attentive to our table. We will definitely come back! The food was impeccable! I WILL be sure to ask for SPECIFIC seating preferences.

I have lived in Middletown for 10 years and I have never made it to prime 225. This was our first time and we were NOT disappointed. We cannot wait to go back and try everything else. The steak was cooked to perfection. It could have been slightly more flavorful but I just added a little salt and it was great. I was not a fan of horseradish sauce for the steak- never had that before so I just didn’t use. My husband had the pork chop and it was just WOW!

On 4/6/24, Me and my wife went to this restaurant, and I must say I was very very impressed. We arrived a little early yet the manager Frank went above and beyond to get us a table. We advised him it was a first time there, and he made sure that we received nothing but the best of service. He personally took us over and make sure that everything was fine. We didn’t have any issues with anything. Our waiters name was Michael and he took his time explained everything to us regarding the menu seeing as it was our first time. He was very knowledgeable Of every item on the menu, and I was very impressed with the level of professionalism we received here. The quality service was so good and spectacular that we actually went back on 4/11/24 to dine there again. We had Courtney as our waitress, and I must say she was just as good as Michael. I see they take the time in training the staff there. I Can honestly say that this might be our new dinner spot. I really hope that this Google review makes it to Bud and Bobby “Owners”so they can know just how well this establishment is being ran. Frank, I just want to say thanks again for everything and you made it more than just a dinner for me and my wife. It was a wonderful experience and looking forward to coming back again.

Amazing experience! Called earlier in the day for reservations, only time we could get was 8:30pm. We were a bit concerned with it being close to closing. They did not disappoint! First time visiting and can't wait to go back! The food was out of this world fantastic. Oyster stew was rich and hearty. Steak was cooked perfectly with a bourbon sauce that was absolutely ridiculous. So flavorful! The risotto was perfection. Everything we had was outstanding! The space is refined but not stuffy. It is small, so call ahead for reservations. It is pricey but well worth it. Go! Don't hesitate, just go! You will not be disappointed.

Still really good, but not as amazing as everyone says. So we went on a Saturday night, I understand it's a busier night no biggy. We made reservations for the bar. The staff was very friendly very attentive very knowledgeable. Atmosphere is nice not loud like a sports bar but not creppy quite either. Nicely decorated. We got quite a good bit of options of food. Let me start out with the one thing I don't have a photo of was the asparagus soup super yummy 10/10 recommend trying it. The steak tartare was also wonderful house made chips nice crunch. Mushrooms were marinated beautifully and onion rings were light but crunchy still. Mashed potatoes were so creamy and hit the comfort spot. Only complaint is actually our main courses they were just ok, not bad do not get me wrong but I was expecting to be blow away by these choices. Husband had their bone in ribeye good sear good flavor and good size. I have the salmon and shrimp it was good but I feel like I could have had that level of salmon anywhere. Lastly the dessert was super amazing it was the apple dessert with the crumble on top and the ice cream and mmmmmmm. Oh also drinks were also really good! We will be back but just for drink and sides.
