    Props to the chefs! Food was outstanding, nothing over the top or eccentric, just high quality like you would expect to find in actual France! I did think the silverware and glassware could be upgraded, or at least all match. But the quality of the food will have us back for sure!

    801 Chophouse is to be experienced as an event! The service was impeccable (especially our waiter Glen), the food expertly prepared and the ambiance was relaxing. We started with the steamed mussels, which was a very generous portion in a garlic butter bath. Next, we had the wedge salad and the tomato onion salad which were both delicious. Our main courses included the prime rib and the petite filet. Again, both prepared to perfection. Sides included the asparagus and Maytag potatoes, which were sharables. Finally, we had the souffle for dessert. It was light, but flavorful. We will visit again for a special occasion. The prices are high - the meal described along with a couple of cocktails ran nearly $400. I recommend taking a look at the menu before you go so you won't be surprised. Definitely worth it for an anniversary or birthday. Beware some people bring their small children. You may get seated next to a family. Otherwise, worth a try!

    Server was very sweet. She was busy with the previous table & popped by a little late but she was so warming and welcoming. She even got us a round of Daquiri Tinis for being late to the table. Drinks were great but the dessert was even better. Great experience!
