ETC Steakhouse delivers a dining experience that goes far beyond expectations. From the moment we walked in, the service was warm, attentive, & genuinely welcoming. The atmosphere strikes a perfect balance between classy & comfortable - ideal for a date night, a celebration, or just treating yourself to something exceptional.
Perfectly cooked to order, melt-in-your-mouth tender, & bursting with flavor. You can tell they use top-quality cuts & know exactly how to bring out the best in them. The sides & sauces complemented everything beautifully - not to mention the wine list, which was spot-on.
We left full, happy, & already planning our next visit. ETC Steakhouse sets the bar high - easily one of the best steakhouse experiences I've ever had.
David our waiter was very helpful with the wine selection & was very attentive to our wants for the night, highly recommend for anyone to go & have a great meal with an amazing ambiance
My friend & I ordered the Surf & Turf platter, mille feuille baked potatoes, drinks (Pomara & wine) & desserts (Chocolate Fondant with Raspberry Flowing Core (Gluten Free) & Madagascar Vanilla Crème Brûlée). As well a seafood linguine to take home (the taste was good but the I think quantity of seafood can be more). Everything was exceptional (although the shrimps are small), especially the aged bone-in ribeye steak & lobster tail. I would recommend the dish but not the shrimps & I find it can be of better quality. Overall for steak/lamb/lobster, I definitely recommend this place for anyone to go. The service & staff are friendly & know there dishes well. Throughout the meal, we had different staff making sure everything was going well & if we needed any help, someone is always available.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Playground's ETC & I must say, it was an extraordinary experience from start to finish. The ambiance was warm & inviting, with a perfect balance of elegance & comfort. The dim lighting & tasteful decor set the mood for a memorable evening. The service was impeccable. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with genuine smiles & a level of attentiveness that made us feel like VIPs. Our Maître D'hotel was knowledgeable about the menu & offered fantastic recommendations, clearly passionate about the food & wine offerings. Now, onto the star of the show - the A5 Wagyu steak. Cooked to perfection, each bite was tender, juicy, & bursting with flavor. It was evident that the chefs use only the highest quality cuts of meat, expertly seasoned & grilled to our exact preferences. The wine list was extensive & thoughtfully curated, providing a range of options to suit every palate & perfectly pair with the dishes. The dessert menu was a delightful end to our meal, with indulgent choices that did not disappoint. Overall, ETC exceeded all my expectations. If you're looking for a top-notch steakhouse with exceptional service, a welcoming atmosphere, & food that will leave you craving more, this is the place to be. I cannot wait to return!
Excellent food & ambiance Porterhouse steak cooked to perfection! Server knowledgeable in his wines. One of my new favorite restaurants. Can't wait to go back!
I havent been here since the opening, so i was looking forward to trying it out again. I tried the NY strip with the mille feuille potato & WOW! Everything was incredibly delicious. Our server Sam was amazing, he gave great wine & food recommendations & was so friendly & knowledgable. The chocolate raspberry dessert was also delicious but a little too rich for my taste, perhaps another scoop of ice cream would be enough to help get through the cake 😅 Will definitely come back :) Gave 4 stars for atmosphere as i found it quite cold.
