The Chop House

My wife and I went to dinner on New Year's Eve and the whole evening was exceptionalOur server, Nicole, was awesome. She had great suggestions and was also able to get us seated downstairs for dessert. The whole staff went above and beyond to make our night extra special and we can't wait to come back!

9-29-2024We were a party of 6 and came for a double birthday.The service was great and the also the ambiance, but we thought the food was a little subpar for the price.I did enjoy my Dover sole and the sauteed spinach and mac & cheese are highly recommended.

I'd rate it a 4.5. This is my sister and her finances favorite steak place in the area. The main dishes and sides were all pretty much amazing. The service was very good. It reminds me of service at top Michelin restaurants. However, I didn't care so much for the Cesar salad. Pretty disappointed in it given how good everything else was.

TLDR: the food fails to meet the same quality as its service. Overall Rating: 2.5/10 Amount Spent: ~$170 for 2 people (including tax and tip)--Wish I could rate this place higher. The service? Id give it a solid 9/10, although they did have a mishap or two, they were on top of their game tonight. What knocked off that last point was 2 things:- When we ordered our steak, we asked for it cooked to a medium, but apparently they don't offer that and our waiter never bothered to mention that to us (found out when the steak came to the table)- When something across the dining room dropped, a few of the waiters sighed very heavily and made random noises (even rolled their eyes). Not saying they shouldn't have those emotions, but it's just not something I want to see or hear when I'm eating, especially in an establishment like this.But even with the service being as good as it was... I come to restaurants for the food, not the service. The food: Hard 4.5/10, reaching 5 to 5.5Don't get me wrong, it wasn't an entire disappointment, the crab/lobster cakes and the lobster bisque were great (although I do wish the bisque had more lobster, it had body, and that made up for it). Although I wouldn't recommend coming here, if you end up still going: I'd say those are two things that you DEFINITELY have to order... Now here's why I say you shouldn't come here.For a steak house, you'd think they know how to cook their steaks to any temp. We asked for our steak to be cooked to a medium (since my S/O prefers to not eat overly "red" meat) but the steak came out blue - medium rare. A gradient cook isn't the worst, but the fact that it was blue and the waiter had the audacity to tell us that it was "true medium rare" is crazy talk. I've been on the grill since I was 8, I know what medium rare looks like. Wish I took a picture of the actual meat rather than just having a shot of the bone, but trust me, it looked virtually identical. When we sent it back we expected a re-fire since it was pre sliced, but they simply reheated the same steak again, so it came out tough, chewy, and over cooked this time. 3/10Note: steak was extra salty as well, which is ironic, since the two sides we ordered with it had virtually no seasoning. The sides? Ordered the 3 cheese Mac and the wild sautéed mushrooms.3 cheese mac was cooked well, but had literally no flavor. 5.5/10Wild mushrooms look good, but that's all it has. No seasoning and half of it was undercooked. Not really fun chewing into raw, under seasoned mushrooms on your anniversary dinner. 4/10

I will start by saying I don't typically go to many fancy steakhouses so take this review with a grain of salt. I came here solely because my little brother wanted to go to a "fancy" steakhouse and not a chain like Texas Roadhouse. My fiancé and I ordered the beef Wellington and the salmon. We split half-and-half and they were nice enough to split it for us! My brother and his girlfriend got steaks, I believe he got the Wagyu and she got the filet. We also ordered 3 sides to share - brussels sprouts, potatoes au gratin, and mac & cheese. I will say all the food was delicious and the service was immaculate. I can understand why people would go to a fancy steakhouse! Would I come back? Maybe. I would come back for another special occasion, but this is not a restaurant that I would go to just to have because I was hungry. Everything was honestly amazing, but the bill for 4 people was over $500. But also keep in mind, my brother's Wagyu was $100 just for the steak so it's possible this could've been a little cheaper. Personally, I don't think it's worth it, but for another special occasion, I would come back, I have no complaints!

Overall I think this restaurant is one that you should try at least ONCE in your lifetime. Fortunately I went with my family because of my birthday this past month and I had a very enjoyable time! The ambiance was great and the waiter was very friendly and guided you through their menu and cooking styles!The food was great! The Wagyu steak was delicious, the au gratin were tasty, but unfortunately nothing too exciting. The salmon was delicious and the complimentary bread was astounding. Hard to go wrong here and I highly recommend!
