    Chop House provides a remarkable dining experience. Their menu is innovative and offers familiar favorites like filet mignon with an esoteric flair. The staff are attentive, knowledgeable, and clearly take pride in the level of service they and their restaurant offer. Without doubt, this is the best restaurant we've visited in months.

    Service was outstanding and personal. Wine, steak and duck fat fries, same. Salad of the day had a strange sweet, gummy dressing that should have been on the side. My server was the best!! Oh, and the bread. Carb worthy.

    Tonight was our guest’s first experience at Chop House. They ordered filet mignon which was ordered medium rare and delivered very rare and bloody. The elk meatloaf was overcooked. The burger and prawns we ordered were overcooked as well. The salad was great, the soup delicious, and the service superb.

    An intimate setting where expectations were exceeded with an interesting menu highlighted by stellar service and excellent food, prepared well. The portions were perfect, the flavors not overbearing and the ambiance was perfect for a delicious meal served at a relaxing pace. Next time, we’ll try something from the dessert menu.
