Taylor's Steakhouse

I had been craving steak, which is not often. I wanted something simple without the fancy shrills and so breaking the bank. My bf mentioned Taylor's for out date night and it looked pretty solid. They had plenty of parking in the lot. I would say dress code is business casual, although I saw a guy with t-shirt and a hat. The inside has a very old school mood with dim lighting. They serve complimentary bread and butter. The bread is I believe sourdough, which was cut in thick slices. Soft and chewy. I do wish the butter was not so cold and hard. It made it difficult to spread on the already soft bread, so you end up eating small chunks of butter. We ordered a bottle of Stags Leap, a Cabernet Sauvignon. I'm not a big wine person or a fan of cabs but my bf said this is a very good one and that I would like it. I will say, it did not disappoint. It did not feel as heavy or rich, but rather a bit smoother and sweeter. Paired very well with the steak. _Taylor's Classic Caesar Salad (Half $9.95 / Full $12.95) I got the half size, which was pretty good size for a starter salad. I was afraid the dressing was going to be heavy handed, but it was the perfect amount. A classic and simple salad. _Filet Mignon ($47.95) We both ordered this is medium rare. It was a bit dry on the edges but luckily as I got to the center, it was perfectly cooked medium rare. Good seasoning. I got the sauteed mushrooms ($2.95) and mashed potatoes ($2.50). The mushrooms were the right amount of saltiness and the mashed potatoes were nicely whipped. I like the small bits of the potato skin. My bf got the asparagus, which was pretty bland. Overall great service and price is very fair. You can't get that kind or price anymore for a steak, especially the side dishes. If you are craving steak, this will do the work.

Traditional Red Booth Steak HouseNice old school atmosphere with a great staff that does their job and allows you to eat in peace!I was surprised how reasonable the prices are for the quality of the food. They keep it simple and don't gouge you on prices. You won't find Filet Mignon in three sizes starting with the small one being $59. They also don't have an overly complicated menu with excessive options that just waste your time. We had a party of six and everyone enjoyed their dinner. One suggestion I do have is in regard to reservations. They currently do not accept reservations for parties under 8. They do get busy and to expect a group of 4-6 to take the risk of waiting an hour to be seated on a first come basis seems ridiculous. They should allow reservations for parties or at least 4.

The best prime rib I've ever had in my life.Granted, most of the prime rib I've ever eaten has been at hotel buffets (where it sits under a heat lamp), but the memorable ones have been at legit spots -- The Four Seasons, The Ritz Carlton, St. Regis, Bellagio and Caesar's Palace. Rarely do I order prime rib at a steakhouse because, ya know, when in Rome...you order STEAK.Still, having had Lawry's, Ruth's Chris, Peter Luger's, Mastros, Steak 48, Houston's and Flemmings prime rib offerings in the past, I'm no stranger to non-buffet versions of this as well.Anyway, whatever. The dinner cut prime rib at Taylor's La Canada is INSANE. It's perfectly cooked, as are the sides, everything is large in portion and no-frills in preparation, and the service is impeccable without being pretentious.Really great experience. So good, in fact, that I've just convinced myself to go again tonight.

This is one of our favorite upscale restaurants. They have a wide variety of steaks, chicken and seafood. Always great food and service. Great ambiance, old school. One of us ordered the rack of lamb, and my wife and I shared the sand dabs. Everything was excellent! Olivia was an exceptional waitress.

I'll start with the good. The drinks (Manhattans and a martini) were tasty and well made. We ordered a filet and a burger which were both enjoyable. Our server and bartender were friendly and accommodating.I've been here before but not for several months. I do not remember being charged for bread. And I don't recall the steak not coming with some kind of side. I had the dinner salad which was lettuce, carrot and two grapes tomatoes (7.95). At the bar my Manhattan was $16.50 and at the table it was $18.50. I don't know why it was different in different locations. I left feeling nickel and dimed. I usually don't leave yelps unless it was a 5 star experience, but I'm disappointed that tonight wasn't so great. Scrolling through the recent reviews, which I wish I'd looked at earlier, it seems that there has been a shift at Taylor's and others are enjoying this institution less as well.

Friday night was packed but luckily the wait was 20 minutes to get seated. Ordered the following:Clam chowder: had a slightly fishy taste. Wasn't the best or freshest clam chowder. There were a few pieces of oyster and needed some pepper flakes. Chilled jumbo prawn cocktail: this is a must order if you like seafood. The prawns are juicy and thicc and really refreshing with the cocktail sauce. Bone in ribeye: flavorful and fatty. Just thinking about it making me drool. Definitely a must get!Service is courteous and friendly. Interior is gives an old school steakhouse feel, but everything is modern and clean. Valet parking is available but otherwise there's a huge lot that's shared with other businesses.

Takes you back to the past with their beautiful ambiance. Dishes are all superb. Large private parking lot out front. And staff are wonderful.

Taylor's Steakhouse in LA made my birthday celebration special with its classic steakhouse charm and delicious steaks. The cozy ambiance and attentive service added to the perfect dining experience.

Old school steakhouse. My youngest loves steak so this her go to place. She gets the kid's London broil with fries which runs about $13. We usually get the petit filet or prime rib, both of which are great. I love traditional restaurants that are dependable and high quality. This is it. Nothing nouveau of conceptual about the cuisine - just the steakhouse classics.

We have dined at Taylor's many, many times over the years. And we have noticed a deterioration both in the food and service lately. We recently had a party of eight, dining on the patio, honoring one of our friends. The waiter, I'm sure very busy, disappeared for long periods. Our honoree, did not get a entrée, and in fact, I had to go into the kitchen and ask where her food was. It was clear her entrée was never ordered. This was not a great experience. Additionally, I must say, the quality of the food is not what it used to be.
