to tell you the truth, i thnk i did a review on this before, it waasn't even as good as it is.....

read up on some of the reviews. They are famous for their prime rib and their dessert bar. was it worth it... not really, decor was lacking and food was just ok. i really did not dig the setting of the place.

Bingo.

Prime rib? meh. It's prime rib, but I wasn't really impressed at all.
They did have yorkshire pudding though. Crappy, but at least it was there.
Dessert bar is okish, not amazing.

My verdict?
This promo is just an early-bird cash grab.

Went here for dine out and was very disappointed with the prime rib and the yorkshire pudding was like cardboard and the Jus was too salty. The dessert buffet is nothing great either, just lots of it.
