Bobby Van's Steakhouse

This is a nice restaurant on the higher end. I had some difficulties at the beginning in having the waiters understand I needed a gluten-free dish (they brought me twice normal bread i sent away). They had day specials but I didn't dare. Eventually I had a home salad as appetizer, a seabass with shrimp, risotto and beurre blanc sauce, and a sorbet. The salad was rich and the small tomatoes were firm. The seabass was also very good. The sorbets (coconut and mango) were good but not pure (fruit, sugar and water), there was clearly something else. I investigated with the waiter but no avail. Except that service was good and welcoming. One liter of San Pellegrino which came with lime wedges (plus). All together 115$ including tip.

For our anniversary- We had a wonderful experience. Food was delicious, we were served complimentary champagne glasses to toast for the occasion and complimentary dessert. And to top it off, Mike our server was amazing. Very natural person with a beautiful sense of humor. He made me laugh so much Definitely will be back

My first visit to this establishment was a party of two for a special Valentine's Day Menu. The maitre d' was kind and had a full smile, she promptly asked if they could take our coats followed by a swift pass to our waiter for seating. The ambience is nice, an open dining room concept allowing you to view most of the dining room. The lights are dimmed and give a candlelight style vibe which was nice. Service for the table was spot on, the waiter was amazing, giving great wine recommendations and proper service the entire night. I started with the bang bang shrimp appetizer which was honestly, the best I've had (definitely better than Bonefish). The flavor was rich and texture was a bit more creamy with a larger shrimp size than most places serving the same app. The main course of Pan Seared Chilean Sea Bass was cooked well, the firm texture of the fish went well with the sundried tomato risotto. The mac and cheese was lackluster, it had a great velvety cheese texture but lacked the sharpness I think defines a "good" mac. The cheeses chosen were too mild in my opinion. The creamed spinach was good. The Lemon Crunch Cake dessert was darn tasty, not too acidic or lemony but well balanced, not a great deal of crunch but the flavors coming from the dish outshine the need for "crunch". Great overall experience, I would recommend going when it is not so crowded to truly enjoy your experience (some tables may be a bit close to other guest, but this is to be expected during a holiday/high volume day)
