    I thought the food and service were good. Felt over priced overall. The hotel is just not the right atmosphere for that quality of restaurant.

    O.K. First time experience. Scallops are only cooked on one side and should be on both sides. Bucatini was too salty but the lobster rigatoni was very good. Baked Alaska was awful and they had to take it back as well as the scallops… I guess that’s what you get for going to a steak house and eat seafood… Won’t be back.

    We went for the first time and had the best steak dinner out there! We went old school with the Caesar salad. Loved the anchovies! Both had the 8oz filet. Very tender and flavorful. The side of creamed spinach was enough for two generous servings. We had a baked Alaska for the first time and it was heavenly. Our server was extremely professional and we really enjoyed his suggestions and service. This is my favorite steak house now.

    My fiancé and I spent his birthday evening at Dean’s. The food was delicious and service was good. The noise level was surprising, but I must say the food made up for it. We highly recommend this restaurant for a nice evening out.

    Our steaks were absolutely delicious! Our server, Tyler, was attentive and helpful with our menu questions. It was a little bit noisy near the bar but the food more than makes up for it!

    The food was delicious and the service was excellent except for the ladies at the hostess stand.They weren't very friendly. The seating is tight. We had a reservation for 6 but felt right up against the people behind us. The sides weren't very warm. Very expensive restaurant but we would consider returning for another special occasion just based on how good the entrees were! Steak was delicious and the seafood was excellent. Parking right next to the restaurant but it was expensive.After spending so much on the food it was strange that the restaurant doesn't validate parking.

    This was not our first time at Dean’s, but I’m not sure we’ll be back. Although the service was wonderful, the food was a bit of a disappointment. We ordered the Tomahawk steak for the three of us, expecting that to be more than enough. Unfortunately it was very fatty, which left us all feeling as though we only had a few good bites each. I love marbling and a little fat, and the bites we did have were delicious, but at a cost of $250, we felt cheated. Additionally, we ordered two lobster tails, one of which we needed to send back, as it wasn’t cooked enough. Again, the service was wonderful , but for the $600+ we spend on dinner, the value simply was not there.
