The Butcher's Son

I recently dined at The Butcher's Son in Chesapeake and enjoyed a meal that perfectly matched my favorite combination: steak, potatoes, and asparagus. I ordered the sirloin accompanied by mashed potatoes and asparagus, and it was exceptional. The sirloin was cooked to perfection, tender and flavorful, while the creamy mashed potatoes and fresh asparagus complemented the dish beautifully.The service was outstanding; the staff was attentive and courteous throughout my visit. The restaurant maintained a clean and inviting atmosphere, enhancing the overall dining experience. To conclude the evening, I treated myself to an espresso martini, which was the perfect finishing touch to a delightful meal. I highly recommend The Butcher's Son for anyone seeking a top-notch steakhouse experience.

My fiancé, daughter and I came without a reservation. We were seated within twenty minutes. Customer service was great.We ordered the oyster rockefeller and calamari which were both delicious. I ordered seafood mac and cheese which was really good but not a lot of lobster or scallops. Fiancé ordered steak with stuffed imperial shrimp which was perfect. My daughter also ordered a steak. She loved her meal.

Was recommended this establishment via a coworker in the area. The bar area inside was great to start our night off. Our server was very nice and we didn't lack on anything including our table drinks. The egg roll appetizer was really good. For my main course the bone in ribeye was good. Perfectly cooked. We all had a fantastic time and would definitely come back here the next time that we are in town. Till next time....

We came to have dinner to this Restaurant a couple of weeks ago. The services was good, we had a big party but the server was on top of it, and super friendly. The food tasted good and they had a good selection in the menu of a variety of options you could pick from. However I thought the price was too much for the flavor. Also we were sitting on the back on like an "extra room", and half of the table was looking towards the wall, so definitely that part was not pleasant and it was not worth the extra upgrade for being seated on the back. Overall we had a good experience however I don't know if I will go again. I feel like when you pay a little bit more of a premium it's worth the location, the premium quality of the food, and of course the service (this one was very good). Definitely plenty of parking.

Sadly, we had a horrible experience here yesterday despite several good ones before. My in-laws and my husband and I with our new baby tried to go to their happy hour which we were told about by Lindsey, our favorite server here. Yes, we had a baby at a bar but they have bar booths that are pretty nice, unfortunately it's more cramped over there than we thought so fitting 4 adults and her carseat in a booth was cramped. When we arrived my husband walked up and told the hostess that we were going to to bar and we walked over (it was about 4:45 so early) and saw about 4 people at the bar and no one sitting in any booths. The hostess followed us over and we asked her if we could sit at one of the empty booths since we had the baby and she said sure just choose one of the far ones - which we did and she brought us menus. Super friendly. When the female bartender came over a few minutes later we asked about happy hour and she said that's only at the bar - which was about 2 feet away from us. We said, "aren't we at the bar?" and she said no. Confusing, bc why was the bartender waiting on us then? So things were starting off badly, our baby started to cry which she usually doesn't while out, so I was comforting her while this all went down but essentially, the bartender wouldn't let us order anything from happy hour menu, although she was our server so I'm still thinking wtf on that one... my husband who is diabetic and had low blood sugar (so grumpy) asked to speak to the manager bc she was being difficult and he came over and then it really went sour. He told my husband that he just "blew past him" and walked to the bar - which was confusing to us and pissed my husband off bc he was holding our baby in her heavy carseat and he spoke to the hostess and said we were going to the bar. The bar area wasn't crowded at all and anywhere I've ever been they tell you to seat yourself at the bar. So my husband was pissed and the manager said he was being aggressive when he was just asking if we could order from the happy hour menu. Then he said no - wouldn't budge on it, said you HAD to be sitting at the bar. My husband said, aren't these booths bar booths? There is a partition/wall behind those booths that separate them from the other part of the restaurant... he said no, they're part of the table rotation. My husband said that seemed weird and the manager said he wouldn't assume they're bar booths. Well any nice steakhouse I've ever been to has a bar area that is seat yourself and has booths (Ruth's Chris, Flemmings, etc.). Maybe I'd buy it at dinner service, but there was no one there - not a single person sitting in a single booth but us. And why is there a partial partition?! It's confusing and the manager was being difficult and wasn't at all friendly. My husband and he went back and forth for a while but eventually we decided we did not want to spend $150 there when it was obvious they wanted us to leave. I'm guessing bc of our baby... so we packed up and left. I'm still calling bs on this bar menu issue bc if those booths aren't bar booths - why did the bartender walk over and ask what she could get us? Where was our server then? If they aren't bar booths - why the hell was the bartender our server? See where I'm going with this?! Either way - it would've been easy to say sure go ahead and order from the happy hour menu folks since the bar is 18 inches away and you can lean over and touch it from this booth. But no, it was more important I guess to prove the point and piss us off so we won't be back any time soon. Nice.I was just beginning to love this place for date night too since we live at the oceanfront and Lindsey is adorable.

This is a classy restaurant with very attentive staff. The steaks were delicious and the presentation was very nice as well. I am looking forward to another meal here in the future.

Best brunch buffet in the area - meats are perfectly cooked and everything else is just icing on the cake!

The butcher's son is a nice steakhouse with a variety of options. I got the she crab soup to start, which had pretty good flavor, although it was way too thick. I'm not a big steak person, so I went with the scallops with green beans and spinach tomato risotto for my entree. The scallops were cooked well, but the risotto had big chunks of the veggies, which wasn't what I was expecting. Also everything was way too salty and very inconsistently seasoned. Some bites were fine and then others I could taste the salt crystals which was not pleasant. It was a good experience, but nothing that has me rushing to return.

The Butcher's Son is an excellent option for a steakhouse in the area. The inside is a little dark and it appeared they had different rooms to host events. I enjoyed their butterfly effect, a spring seasonal cocktail, that had pear and pineapple juice and had a nice light purple color. The appetizers were okay as the calamari tasted like calamari and the French dipped egg rolls were okay with the winning part being the jalapeño glaze sauce. The sirloin steak was good but it wasn't cooked as I wanted but it didn't completely ruin the steak. The green beans were not seasoned consistently as I would get a super salty ones. The whipped potatoes were good and the risotto were good. All in all a decent steakhouse that serves good food but nothing to keep me dreaming about wanting more.

Amazing restaurant this place is amazing the food is off the chart good the service is excellent everyone friendly
