AC's Steakhouse Pub - Hernando

I wanted a good steak after my last disappointing one (Most Recent Review) Its my birthday weekend, so I decided to give Ac's a try. I had been wanting to try them for a while. I can say the ambiance was really nice and so was the staff. The atmosphere was casual/nice. I ordered a Margarita to get started. They defiantly don't hold out on the alcohol. I also ordered a shrimp cocktail. I usually receive these in a glass on a bed of Ice and some house made sauce in the middle. These came on a silver platter with cocktail sauce dollop's under them. I cant say I'm a big fan. They were not very cold and the cocktail sauce was very average in taste. The size of the shrimp was decent size.We moved on to the main orders. I ordered the 16oz Ribeye with grilled onions, asparagus, and a side salad. I asked for my steak to be medium rare. The wife ordered the Filet Mignon with mushrooms and a baked potato. She asked if we would be receiving any bread. The waitress said for an up-charge. She would bring some out. The one thing I noticed is everything is a la carte. Your meal comes with one side. The side salad is also an up-charge. I can say the portion sizes for the appetizers and most of the sides were big. I wasn't very impressed with the size of the steaks considering the prices. The steaks in my opinion should be the star of the show!The salad was good but the ranch was a little bland. I received my steak and it was cooked more medium to slightly well. I have just decided no-one knows what a medium rare steak is anymore..... As I stated previously. I wasn't impressed with the size. It was a decent steak, but after the reviews I read. I really expected much better. The taste was also very average bordering on a little bland......Not bad, but nothing to write home about. The asparagus was very bland and under-cooked. My wife and the rest of my party felt the same way. It was expensive for average food. That's why I gave them a three star for the overall experience. If Yelp had half starts it would have been a three point five, but I just cant in good faith give them a four star. The price just don't match the overall quality of the food. Based on our bill I felt a little underwhelmed. I don't mind spending a lot of money on outstanding food. I do mind spending a lot on average food.I wasn't kidding when I said they charge for everything! They even charge an extra 3% for using a card versus cash. Its not a lot of money and it is on their webpage. I just think it should be absorbed in any business. Since we had eight people, there was an automatic 18% gratuity added. Not uncommon these days and our waitress was worth every penny. She worked hard. I tend to tip more than that for a really good waitress. But if they force it. I just tip the forced rate. Would I come back? Probably not....... This place is what I consider just good to average, but very overpriced for the quality of the food you receive. There are much better steak houses out there that would cost you less.

Service AWESOME as always. Small grilled chicken salad was huge, but was bland. Salad dressing was warm, and only one grape tomato sliced into 4 mini pieces so I'm sticking w/my favorite loaded baked potato. Still love the atmosphere and music here too.

Nice atmosphere and friendly courteous staff. Stay tuned. Review coming.... We walked in, step up to the counter and was greeted with great smiles. 1st impressions sets the atmosphere. We were seated in a few minutes, party of two. The decor was modern/rustic very welcoming. They closed at 9pm we arrived at 8pm with no issues with the kitchen closed or grill shut down. That's a plus when they want your $$$. Appetizer Cajun Crawfish Dip = I like anything probably made with Crawfish ‍ but I loved this it's in a lane all by itself. It's definitely a crowd-pleasing. Now it's between gumbo and creamy rotel dip with a flavorable, seasoned crawfish, sautéed veggies, roux with various cheese, cream cheese and it's served with buttery crispy cajun in house made to order fresh tortilla chips! This by far is delicious and a game changer to any appetizer menu item for any party! There was a Cajun season on these light crunchy chips that was delightful. Grilled lime Salmon with sides Lemon Butter Asapargus, Garlic Butter Broccoli and Garlic Mash Potatoes. All was hot, seasoned and timely service. Taste Timely Portion size Presentation Value of ingredients for $ Ambiance Atmosphere Professionalism Staff Flavor Unique Menu Creativeness P.S. we will be back and don't sleep on this spot!! Get here!! Trust the chef Chef Wilk

My husband and I had our date night here for the first time and we were not disappointed! All of our food was fantastic. I had the crab cakes with asparagus. The best crab cakes I've ever had, they were so moist. My husband had the bacon wrapped filet with garlic mashed potatoes and he enjoyed it. It was cooked perfectly. We also had the sausage and cheese platter for appetizer. It came with pimento cheese and usually I'm not a fan, but this one was very tasty! More of a cream cheese flavor which I personally liked. For dessert we had the fried cheesecake that was to die for! So good I forgot a picture. HahaI'd also like to acknowledge our waitress Kate (possibly Katie?). She was fantastic! Super friendly and attentive, making the experience even better. Thank you!

Went with family last Saturday for brunch/ lunch to celebrate a new job. Service was indifferent, never offered coffee refill or water refill. Shrimp and grits - shrimp were good, grits cold with golf ball lumps. Granddaughters French toast cold, biscuits with several other meals cold. My kids are too kind to complain when this was supposed to be a treat, so I did my own taste testing. Those that had it did say the bacon was good, and oldest grandson enjoyed his steak. Sure if I had thought of it Waffle House would have been better value and more enjoyed.

Absolutely charming! Great food, great service. Quaint little town with southern hospitality coming out it's ears! Would highly recommend! Grilled Shrimp... yum

Excellent food with good service, Salmon is one of my favorite choices and their French fries are amazing.

I am not one to leave reviews but this place was so amazing Meloney was an excellent server and super kind the food was amazing and I will make sure to stop by again (sorry if I butchered the spelling on the name )

Great food and tasty creative cocktails. Good service and nice atmosphere. It was a gorgeous day to sit on the patio under the umbrellas. The inside is nice as well. Lots of seating. I had the chicken and biscuits and gravy. I tried the drink me Alice and the orange dreamsicle martini. The drink me Alice had a nice presentation with a beaker bottle mixer. After drinking it, it started to taste like soup the longer it sat. The Dreamsicle tastes just as described. I also had the fried cheese cake bites. Delicious. I highly recommend this restaurant.

Ok, I'm in the restaurant business and I've lived all over this country and I really like Hernando, MS, Fine, got that out of the way. When I walked in and saw the layout and the dress of the customers vs. what you charge for your fare, made no sense. The food was average at best. A monkey dish of lukewarm broccoli for 6.oo is down right wrong. My fiancée ordered the porchop and it came out with 2 cups of cinnamon apple pie filling on it........WAS NOT A CHUTNEY.Folks this is a tough business', you would last 2 months in some markets I've lived in, with your prices, execute better, get serious about your food, and service points.
