Let's just call this what it is. This is by far the best steak in the area. I have been here 15-20 times. Now the truth.....This steak isn't USDA prime. It's "Choice". This is an excellent steak but I don't understand the need to false advertise. The plastic around the steaks in the case definitely say "choice". Yet there's not a choice steak option on the menu. It's a $45-$50 steak easy. But it's not a $60 steak. The sides and plated meal are "ok". Compared to the steaks I'd just pass on them all. They are usually overcooked and very mediocre. The appetizers are a complete coin toss. Had some great ones here but have had terrible ones. I give this place 4 stars for their steaks. I give them a 2 for everything else. Get a better prep cook! The place has the potential to be out of this world good. The owner has an answer for everything and it's rarely the truth. Put your boots on when he starts talking.

I was working in the Geneva area and looking for an interesting place for dinner in the winter and there were not a lot of options. Yelp came through when this place turned up! It is a bit rustic, basic and open but not in a bad way. Their emphasis is on quality food rhatnis prepared well and the totally deliver!I got a half rack of ribs and crab cakes. They ribs were cooked to perfection. They walk the fine line between making them fall off the bone tender, but still get a good bark on them. Not many places seem to do do this as well.The garlic mashed potatoes were fantastic as well. It changed hands a couple years ago, so be sure to look at the more recent menu pictures, or go to their Facebook page for current menu.

Great place to be invited for a dinner date while visiting the city on business. The decor is rustic and the vibe is laid back. The customer service here is top-notch and you can see they developed into a "family". Mistakes were made with a few of the orders, at our table, but the owner did his best to correct the orders as well as offer substitutions for the items that they ran out of. All the dishes were flavorful and well presented.Tip: Currently BYOB but they have ice buckets and various types of service glasses to enjoy your libation.

If you're looking for a high quality, fresh from the butcher kind of steak then this is the spot.My filet was cooked to medium rare perfection and the sides (green beans, carrots, and mushrooms) were equally delicious.Awesome ambience with the outdoor seating and open air kitchen inside. It may get a bit warm in the summer inside with the open kitchen but it's worth it for the open air feel. They also have a nice fire pit surrounded by chairs and couches outside with music playing which makes for a perfect date night.The owner stopped by our table to make sure everything was top notch and I had nothing but praises for him 100% will be dining at the Farmer Butcher Chef again.

I really liked this place.We had reservations for a Saturday at 5:30. I would NOT bring children here as the service is probably way too slow for kids. I'm not saying kids aren't welcome (there were young kids here) but mine would have not had patience for the pace of the service. We had a large group of 14+ so that could have slowed service down but not didn't matter much as we were all chatting and not in a rush. I didn't mind the pace of the service at all. The menu options were plentiful and diverse (steaks, chicken, pasta, salmon, ribs, shrimp & grits). We opted for meats + family style of the sides. This place did not disappoint!! Everything was wonderful! Everyone in our party enjoyed their entree and sides and plenty left with to go boxes. The portions are huge (remember George's Dinner Bell in Painesville?!) The food came out hot. It was fresh. It was filling. It was well seasoned and served. Alcohol selection was straightforward and desserts were monstrous also!We will be back. You may want to skip lunch if you plan on having dinner here! Servers were friendly and attentive.

A full review to consider:Fantastic from start to finish! My fiancé and I don't travel often but when we do, we always try to find great "hidden gems" and this is definitely it!Ambiance: When we arrived, the atmosphere was approachable for casual dress but cozy and refined enough that I would consider taking her on a fancier "date night" outing. Candles (artificial but classy) flickered at every table and the background music playing was just the right level for conversation or to listen to while we ate. Service: Our server was accommodating, helpful, and punctual. We never felt forgotten about yet were not hounded over what else we could be helped with. That being said, we were approached by other staff (one who I assume was the manager) who clearly treat each customer with the highest level of care and hospitality we have rarely experienced even at our most pleasant dining experiences. Food: The menu was moderate but packed with dishes that you would be hard pressed it find in any "ordinary" restaurant. We ordered the Pierogi's as an appetizer (we are from families who have made them homemade for centuries) and were truly impressed with how such a familiar dish was elevated. My fiancé got the Half Rack Rosemary BBQ spare ribs ($24) and I the Lamb Chops ($39). Admittedly I was skeptical about the prices; coming from an area where such dishes get you a lackluster, fatty rib and 4 lamb chops. To my AMAZEMENT, the portions were not just filling, they were huge! The meatiest and tastiest rib my fiancé had ever had (ALL FALL-OFF-THE-BONE MEAT, NO FAT!) and TEN lamb chops cooked to perfection ($4 per sizable chop!). The portions were so huge that we took half of our entrees to go, feeling STUFFED, and were already excited to eat more tomorrow. As sides, we both got Brown Sugar Carrots (which weren't too sweet but flavorful in all the right ways), garlic butter mashed potatoes (with an abundance of garlic flavor but in balance with the potatoes), and asparagus spears which were juicy and large. Overall, the only thing that disappointed us about this experience was what only 6 tables were in use this evening when the place should be full with what it offers: a truly elevated "farm to table" dining experience worth experiencing before the secret is out! We will be getting married next year and have already resolved we will be back with our entire bridal party!

I went there Friday night(2/28/25) with two friends. Let's go in order:1. The service was not good. When we got to our table it took 10-15 minutes to get a drink order.2. Two young's guys handled our order. They were nice but seemed uninformed3.It took 2+ hours to get our entree'4. I ordered a pork chop. TERRIBLE. I didn't even finish the first bite. It was dry and hard. The green beans were under cooked. Yes, there should be a little crunch but these were crunchy. Not good.The dinner was taken off my bill quickly and I was given a free dessert. The entire bill was too expensive. Did not believe we received value for the price..

I'm really torn. Great steak. Probably the very best ribeye I have ever had in my life... and that's saying a LOT, because I have traveled the world searching for a great steak for 4 decades.but very weird service. Waiters decide whether to bring you what you order versus whatever THEY decide you should get. Then they argue with you - in a friendly passive-aggressive way - when you ask them to bring what it was you actually ordered. They are also extremely inflexible, and permit no changes or swap-outs. Like... it is NOT permitted to swap a side salad in lieu of the included two sides.And after they deliver your meal, they disappear... so you'd better BYOB And if you don't want to pay for that great steak, don't worry. The waiter will never return to your table with the check, either. Just a very weird culture and aura, with weird service. But if you can tolerate the weirdness, you'll get a great steak!
