    What a terribly underwhelming experience for my family and me for NYE. We were denied basic bread service and food came out cold. Very disappointed to drive 1.5 hour for this. Reviews were clearly misleading. Never again! Only positive was our waitress who was very helpful.

    Went for Christmas Dinner. Overpriced for what you get. Service was poor, server would check in on us every 20-30 minutes. We had to flag him down multiple times. Mushroom soup was served completely cold. Lobster Pasta was old and undercooked - there is no way the pasta is made fresh daily. The menu states pasta is made fresh, that is complete crap and misleading. Thank god the steaks were cooked properly for a steakhouse. Drinks were the only saving grace of the dinner where they were made properly and worth the $15+ cost per drink. I do not recommend Dean’s and won’t be returning.

    The restaurant advertised a "Christmas at Deans" experience. When we arrived, there were no Christmas decorations and the music was loud pop music...no Christmas experience at all. And this was on Christmas day. The service and food was ok. They told us they would put all our food in at once and it would come out whenever and that was better than waiting. Salads came out with entree. The staff indicated they were not expecting so many people and the kitchen was behind. The food was fine and the staff did the best they could but overall a disappointing experience at the price point and based on what was advertised.

    Hi Melanie, Sorry we did not deliver a great dining experience for you. This is obviously not the experience that we strive for and hope to have you back to show you the amazing food and service we are known for. If you would like to speak to a member of our management team please feel free to reach out to us directly at the restaurant.

    The restaurant was busy and it took time to get service. Our server Ralph was a great guy but struggled to keep up. Drinks took a long time and we had to keep asking for them. Despite several visits to the table by a few staff members, the plates were not being cleared until the next course came. The food was excellent (despite the wagu being served almost cold) and we enjoyed our meal very much. The branzino was particularly good. Not a bad experience and it is a very nice restaurant. The timing and attention to details seemed off as they were very busy. We’ll be back.

    Steak and chicken had a burnt char on them. I scraped as much as I could off the steak, and it still left a bitter, gritty taste in my mouth.
    Dean's Italian SteakhouseResponded today
    Thanks for the review, Kaylee. We're truly sorry to hear about your recent dining experience with us at Dean's Italian Steakhouse. It's disappointing to hear that our steak and chicken didn't meet your expectations. We take pride in our quality ingredients and it's clear we missed the mark this time. Your feedback is invaluable to us and we'll certainly look into this matter. We hope you'll give us another chance to impress you in the future.

    Very nice place and located next to the Mariott. Food & presentation is very nice. Service was impeccable and impressive. Steaks excellent- salmon was a bit fishy and not as flavorful as anticipated. Sides good and tasty. Again - very impressive restaurant and would go back.
