    This steakhouse was amazing. I already wrote a yelp review on how great it was I couldn't help but continue in writing another for OpenTable. Haven is the name of the manager and she took care of me even in a busy time. The entire staff was very kind, efficient, hard working, and very supportive. Faye was my server, and she was awesome and a great listener. I told them I am coming back with my wife and kids next week. I am hoping to bring my co workers here as well. Lump crab dip is great and filling. The bread on the table and the butter is the best I have ever had. Waygu burger and steak fries are my favorite so far. They make great drinks. I didn't get the name of the bartender or busser but I give them 5 stars! If upper management at Malone's Palomar is reading this, Please give Haven and Faye a raise, bonus and extra PTO. They are doing a great job and because of them I will definitely be coming back with family and co workers. Thanks again to Haven, Faye and the staff and happy holidays.

    As usual we were taken care of in JR style! We both had the 14 ounce sirloin (blackened) with a huge salad. Our steaks were delicious and cooked perfectly. We went for lunch so no sushi nor baked potato on that menu. Their warm wonderful bread, steak and salad was more than enough to satisfy! We actually brought home leftovers. We plan to go again next week for the prime rib sandwich while the lunch hours are offered.
