First time at the Chophouse and it’s a little pricey, but we knew that going in. Was it worth it? Absolutely! Everything, and I mean everything, was top notch. Service, cocktails, wine selection, apps, entrees and dessert were exceptional. A special shout out to Dennis, who took great care of us and joined us in a few good laughs. Thanks Dennis! We will definitely be back.

The service at Elk Avenue Prime was excellent. The food was delicious. My only criticism about our dinner was the cocktails we ordered were very weak. If we decide to go back we will order bottled beer.
