    Everything was great. All 7 of us had great meals and there were no complaints as far as I remember. The ribeye was huge and flavorful. The mac and cheese app was very cheesy with a wonderful hint of smoke flavor. The seafood salad was very tasty as was the oysters on the half shell. I had the honey glazed salmon which was perfectly crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. Service was also very good. Phenomenal experience overall.

    We had a 7:00 p.m. reservation and was promptly seated. Our waitress was very friendly but not overdoing it. Our food came out promptly and perfect The Braciole and spicy meatballs are our go-to for appetizers and we both had a filet mignon cooked perfectly . Both me and my husband went home with leftovers because there was so much food. We go every year for our anniversary. And will continue coming back. Price is great for great food. Only complaint was multiple people going in in sweat outfits I wish they would look at the dress code a little more strictly for a high-end restaurant.

    Food and service were both outstanding. Acoustics were a bit rough with several large parties who were quite vocal, but we had a lovely dinner and highly recommend.

    The Menu at Cast Iron Chop House is vast and truly had something to offer everyone. We did not even get past the 20 or so appetizer options. We chose 4 and made them our meal. Each portion was very generous. The flavor profile and preparation of each dish was so well crafted. Our server Raoul was exceptional, a constant presence but not closing or intrusive. I will return for sure as we didn't tackle soups, salads, the majority of appetizers or any entree.
