    We had a lovely dinner at Chop House. The food, service, and ambience were spectacular, and the prices are reasonable for the quality.

    First time visiting this gem in historic downtown Luray. Beautiful restoration of an old Home. The service was wonderful and our dinners were absolutely delicious! Highly recommend!

    Overall Chop House was a good dining experience. The host and hostess were friendly and my date and I were early for our reservation so they offered to seat us at the bar for drinks. The bartender was very good. The bar area had a warm atmosphere but we were seated upstairs for dinner and the room was so cold we both ate dinner with our puffy jackets on. We both ordered salmon M/R and both filets were undercooked. The mashed potatoes had good flavor but were a bit over salted. I would steer clear of the salmon and go with a beef entree.

    The atmosphere was casual. The food was amazing. We started with a black bean hummus appetizer. My friend had the catfish soup and I had the sirloin and duck fat fries. I ordered three specialty sauces to compliment the meat. It was one of the best steaks I’ve ever eaten. Fries were great too. We took home a dessert because we were so full but we couldn’t pass up one of their homemade treats. Missy was our waitress and she was very knowledgeable of the menu and very friendly. We would definitely go back and try another dish next time in town.
