   We had a great meal at the bar on a busy Saturday night. Excellent steak dinner finished with a flight of Madeira from a great selection.

   The biscuits are excellent, but the pimento cheese doesn’t need to be there. The tomahawk ribeye was cooked to perfection. Very tasty ice cream cake. It is a bit loud for the prices and they could do for sharpening their steak knives. But those are just small things and I would definitely go back.

   Amazing biscuits, excellent steak and potato salad. The wedge salad was too rich to eat- swimming in thick blue cheese dressing and crumbled egg. Needs a remake. But otherwise a very fun evening - loved the casual vibe and energy.

   The experience was great. The food took a little longer than expected but the manager came by the table to check in with us. The biscuits, steak and mashed potatoes were phenomenal and the drinks were great.

   There is nothing that compares to the axe handle steak Same for the grilled oysters. Definitely splurge worthy. And so many wonderful vegetable options. Finally, loved the effort and results in our discussion with staff about. We enjoyed a great bottle at a very reasonable price. We will go back.

    We sat at the bar for brunch after church, and loved it, as usual. Abby, our bartender, was easily the nicest bartender I have ever had. This is exactly why we come back regularly. Bloody Mary’s were great as well!

    Food was great , server was amazing and fun and really knew the menu and helped us put together a great meal . We just found all the dead animals on the walls a little off putting especially the bear hide . Certainly a personal quirk --it IS a chop house after all--vegetarians aren't likely to be lining up to eat there --it just seemed a little over the top. And not in a good way .

    Immediately loved the vibe. Be prepared that it's a bit loud. The food menu is kind of limited, but this is not a place to go to get a delicate fish. We went for the meat. You can eat vegan (not an issue for us) by ordering the acorn squash without the feta and the grilled okra without the mayo, both of which were seriously delicious. The wine and spirits list is really well-curated. Love the Madera options and history - never seen that anywhere before. We were four people and we ordered the buttermilk biscuits to share (they come 4 to an order), each ordered an appetizer, and the four of us split the Ax Handle Rib-Eye. It was way more food than we needed, and even took some home. Unfortunately, we were too full for dessert, but really wanted the sweet potato pie. I don't think I'd get the Ax Handle Rib-Eye again - too expensive, and I bet the other cuts and preparations are just as good.

    Being from the Midwest, I rarely eat beef when not in the region. Having said that, the Ribeye at St. Anselm is amazing, and I ALWAYS make time to enjoy it while I’m in DC. The service is top notch. The ambience is relaxed and cozy. On this particular visit, I was with a difficult couple and the staff handled them with such grace and professionalism. I can’t sing high enough praises! And, whew! Those biscuits!!

    The overall ambience of the restaurant is nice, although I'll add that it's very dark, loud, and the tables are very close to each other. The service was decent but I consider the food family style, as in you order an entrée to share with sides. It's incredibly overpriced for the portions.
