The Shula's Story
Established in 1989, Shula's Steak House started with one goal in mind - to carry on the legacy of Coach Don Shula, one of the greatest coaches in NFL history. 30 years later, we've taken that goal and run with it. We're proud to offer the highest quality steaks, fresh-caught seafood, and tantalizing sides.

Inspired by Coach
Winners are a different breed. Winners work hard, winners value the small details, and winners never cut corners.
When Coach Don Shula opened the first Shula's Steak House in 1989, he took his winning formula to a whole new level. He wanted to provide the highest quality steaks in a warm, inviting setting. There's an ethos to excellence - it doesn't matter if you're coaching an undefeated football team, or grilling up a porterhouse - we make sure we live by it.

Outstanding quality meats/seafood and the freshest produce prepared simply to let their flavor be the star of the dish or accompanied by lovely sauces if you like extra layers of flavor.

Our server was very nice as was the host and manager. The beautiful decor and high prices did not match the food quality. They serve a bread basket, love bread. When I went to break it, it was hard, smelled and tasted stale. Server was great, apologized and brought us another one. Same! A little less stale but still hard and tasted awful. Lobster bisque was so thick and chunky, not from lobster but what seemed to be an unblended soup of cream chunks. Scallops had no flavor. Filet mignon did have a nice flavor and the inside was cooked a little less than I’d like, prefer med/rare but not seasoned enough and very unimpressed by that. For the cost of the meal I except better. Server again was very nice.
Shula's Steak House - GainesvilleResponded on April 13, 2025
Good evening, Lisette, thank you for your feedback. Apologies for not meeting your expectation. I'm the manager who you spoke with, from my understanding, bread was the only issue. If you had mentioned that you were not pleased with your entrees, we could have taken care of that right away. Again, apologies. Thank you for giving us a try. Ben
