- NNanIndiana •1 review4.0Dined on Jun 21, 2025We have been going to Hideout 125 as it is one of our favorite restaurants for years now. This was our first experience at the new location. Our booth was located in the bar area, but back behind the bar so it wasn't appealing to just see the back of the bar and all the bottles, etc. The temperature was uncomfortably warm. We heard other patrons complaining as well. By the time our dinner arrived, we had gotten too warm. We took a few bites then asked our waitress to box the rest to go. Although the new building was aesthetically nice, we prefer the old Hideout better.More infoHideout 125Price: Expensive• Steakhouse• Fort Wayne•4.9

- EEdwardDenver / Colorado •4 reviews5.0Dined on Jun 13, 2025Business meal occasion with a great end of week meal selection. Based in Denver, CO, and after many days on the road, the Sweetwater Chophouse continues to deliver on a delicious menu. The braised short rib was a delight for my colleague and the Maple Leaf Farms duck was absolutely a treat for myself. Good to know having great food being far away from home! Thank you! Highly recommended for any and all newcomers, the Chophouse will not disappoint.More infoSweetwater ChophousePrice: Expensive• Steakhouse• Defiance•4.8
