    An absolutely delicious meal and a dining experience our entire family will remember for years to come. The lobster bisque was full of flavor. The beet, burrata salad was creamy and fresh. Every single entree was full of flavor from the chicken to the waygu beef steak.

    We were very fortunate to have Chris serve us. This was our first opportunity to meet Chris. He is an excellent server! He was very attentive. He elevated our dinner date. He was super accommodating. I couldn’t have asked for better. I gave the food four stars. This was my very first time in many years of visiting the Chophouse that I had a dish that was not cooked properly. 99% of my visits I order their baked potato. In my opinion the baked potato was over baked. I love a crunchy skin but the skin had started darkening into the potato itself. This is far from normal for this restaurant. Maybe someone new was manning the potatoes. Everything else was their usual five stars!
