    The food and ambiance were exceptional. The service was so rushed we felt we couldn’t ever finish any of our courses.

    We were seated quickly upon arrival in a room with tons of wine bottles. The room was great and the noise level was good. We had great service, drinks were staying full, food was timed well and steaks came out super hot, just the way they should! I would highly recommend this place for a great steak and a wonderful atmosphere.

    Amazing experience! Everyone there was incredibly respectful. The Brussels Sprouts were delicious! My family enjoyed their steaks, but wished there was a little bit more seasoning that they were cooked more accurately as far as temperature. It was very loud in the restaurant, but we still had a great time. Definitely a great place to have a date or celebrate with family and friends, and make some memories!

    Usually a great steakhouse. Didn't have the best experience for some reason on this visit. The steaks weren't that great. Even the Wagyu on salt rock fell flat. They forgot the crabcake order too. We will go back I'm sure but if its disappointing again then something has changed for the worse.

    My first time at Pappa Bros. Steakhouse , I’ve been to Pappadeaux’s, Pappasito’s Pappa barbecue hundreds of times , this was the best experience and food was awesome! Our server was Tim, he was very knowledgeable about all the dishes and recommended some things we did try and he was spot on. What I like about this restaurant, the other servers and staff will help out , ask if you need anything or get your refills without having to alert your server, teamwork! I would highly recommend trying this out. If you have it you’ll be pleasantly surprised like I was. The food was Ahhhh-mazing!
