The food here is great and the service is top notch as well. I loved my filet mignon and my sons loved theirs too. My husbands only complaint was his ribeye didn’t look or taste good at all. While my filet had a nice color and crust and seasoning, his ribeye was lacking all of those. So he was not impressed this year like he was last year. Overall, a great meal!

I had the 8 oz filet. It was tender but lukewarm and not much flavor. I like my food hot! Not worth the price. Not sure I’d recommend. Better places on the island for steak.

Appetizer of Calamari was good (flavor) , but was a bit soggy. Could be crispier. Dessert Baked Alaska was delicious ( cake was chocolate!!), but got a little burned after flambeed tableside. Overall great dining as usual! Personal preference: table and chairs seating are not adjustable, is a bit uncomfortable while eating.

Music was techno/EDM and way too loud. Cocktails were good and so were the apps (baby lettuce salad and French Onion Soup). Skirt steak was flavorful, but salty and a weird texture. NY Strip mostly fat and grizzle… the edible part was gray on the outside with one grill mark down the center… this is not necessarily an issue in and of itself, but 1/2 of the steak was medium rare as I ordered and the other half was rare/purple. What pushed me to write this review was the fact they did not check me in with my Open Table reservation and the OT cancellation police questioned me about my No Show!

It’s wonderful. Being from chicago I was a little Leary of a steak house in Aruba. It was wonderful. Steak (filet ) cooked to perfection. Sides are the perfect size. We did not know about table side cocktail making and we had a new waitress so we were not sure why the bartender needed to come to our table. It all worked out fine and I had a delicious Manhattan. Tuna appetizer perfect size to share and delicious. And the chocolate Nutella dessert wonderful. A must stop in Aruba

I have not been to this restaurant in many years. I decided to make a go of it because we were staying at the Renaissance for this visit. It was definitely a really big disappointment. I don’t mind paying good money for a good steak, but this was definitely not a good steak and my husband and I both got two different types of steak and they weren’t very good at all. The server was good, but I will not be returning.

Ambience was amazing but for a higher end steak house, the steak has zero flavor. The sides also were very bland and just not up to par for taste. Presentation of food and service was top notch though!

Food and service excellent as always. Best steaks on the island expensive but worth the price. I didn’t care for where I sat this time as it felt like I was in the hallway and there were loud obnoxious people at the next table. It is my best fine dining restaurant on the island

I recently dined at L.G. Smith’s Steak & Chop House, and I must say, the service was excellent from start to finish. The staff was attentive and knowledgeable about the menu, ensuring a delightful dining experience. The food was outstanding, with perfectly cooked steaks that left me craving for more. However, it's worth noting that this restaurant leans on the expensive side, so be prepared to splurge for this gourmet experience. It was over $300 for two of us which included one appetizer, two steaks, two sides each, and two cocktails each. The ambiance was unique, with an upbeat modern pop music playlist setting a lively tone. The dark atmosphere added a touch of sophistication but could be a bit dim for some. It's worth mentioning that many diners had to resort to using their phone flashlights to read the menu due to the low lighting. In summary, L.G. Smith’s Steak & Chop House is a top-notch restaurant with exceptional service and fantastic food, but it's a place where you should be ready to open your wallet. If you don't mind a slightly dark ambiance and are a fan of modern pop music, this is a must-visit spot for a special night out.

Great as always. Heidi runs an excellent restaurant. All the staff are super professional and attentive. We go at least once every trip. The filet is glorious, and the creme brulee is an absolutely delightful way to end the meal. Also just had the cauliflower side dish...... excellent. We'll be back. Neil and Nicole from Ohio
