Had a great experience at Vargas! It’s a beautiful restaurant with a nice atmosphere. The drinks were good, and the tomahawk steak was also very good. Service was excellent. Yannick really created an amazing experience for us. Service 12/10.

Absolutely fantastic experience. The rib was tender and juicy, and the burger was one of the best I’ve had, well seasoned and satisfying. Great quality ingredients, excellent service, and a warm atmosphere. We’ll definitely be coming back.

Dinner was exceptional. I got East meets West with Filet mignon and kamakazi sushi roll. Absolutely the best steak I've ever had. The bearanaise sauce was so good as well. Our server Yannick was so accommodating and answered all of our questions. Absolutely amazing quality and service.

Thank you for sharing. I’m truly sorry that you were unable to reach us by phone – I understand how frustrating that can be. At times the restaurant is exceptionally busy or our team is away from the phone (especially during our daily closing window from 2 PM to 5 PM), which can make us miss a call.

I was charged for a scotch i ordered, but they didn’t have in stock. Then i discovered paying the bill, that their replacement suggestion was was more than twice as much as the one I had ordered. Even though I asked if it was in the same price range. They also charged me for the ice ball on a $30 whiskey.

Thank you for your feedback, and we apologize for the misunderstanding with your scotch order. Any substitution and pricing should always be clearly communicated and approved beforehand, and we regret that this was not your experience. The manager was made aware of the situation and did offer you a refund or even another drink on the house but you refused. Still, we will make necessary adjustments for this not to happen again.

Dinner for 5. Service=good overall but waited quite a while for waiter/water. Also, food runners brought wrong dishes to wrong people twice. Waiter (Pascal) was friendly, fun and funny. Food: Bread rolls were good but some were not that fresh. Grilled octopus app was good but not great and had a weird orange sauce. Definitely not worth $30. French onion soup was not hot and the cheese barely melted=someone took it out of the oven way too early. Sent it back and 2nd time around it was hot and melted and broth quite tasty. $12 grilled veggies that we chose as sides with steaks were a let down. Burger de Dave (topped with aged cheddar, maple-glazed bacon, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, pickles and chipotle aioli. Served with golden fries. ) was good but a bit messy because of the aioli, and the meat is not well seasoned. Filet mignon was very good, as was the Miso glazed salmon. Overall a good meal but not great bang for your buck at around $70 per person without booze. Keg offers better overall food and value.

Thank you for your detailed feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed Pascal’s friendly service, the bread rolls, the filet mignon, the miso‑glazed salmon, and the overall atmosphere. We also appreciate the 4/5 ratings for food and service. We apologize for the delays in service, the two order mix‑ups, the inconsistent bread freshness, the under‑cooked soup, the odd octopus sauce, the under‑seasoned vegetables and burger, and for not delivering the value you expected at $70 per person. We’re addressing these issues with our team. Thank you again for helping us improve.

Nice restaurant, a lot to choose from to order. The steaks were tough. The filet had to be sawed with the steak knife when it was cooked medium. It was a little over cooked. The cap steak was incredibly not worth it. Very little flavor also tough and maybe 6-8 ounces of meat for $68. Have a hard time believing these steaks were prime. Would not visit again.

We had our annual company Christmas party there this year and wow!! Incredibly good food with very professional staff. We were in a semi-private room and it was just awesome. I'm hoping we have our Christmas supper there again next year. Thank you!

Food was delicious. The ambience was great. My son had the lobster. We had sushi and the Greek salad. We would certainly go back again.
