★★★★★ 5.0 Jason Shadowen · Feb 2025

We had an incredible Valentine’s Day dinner at Rare Chop House! From start to finish, everything was exceptional. I ordered the filet with a baked potato, and it was cooked to perfection—tender, flavorful, and exactly what I hoped for. The dessert was equally fantastic, a perfect sweet ending to a great meal. Our server, Sydney, provided outstanding service, making sure everything was just right. It was also a nice touch that the owner and head chef, Jeffrey, came out to personally greet us. That level of hospitality made the evening even more special. Rare Chop House truly delivers on quality, service, and atmosphere. Highly recommend for a special occasion or a great steak any night!

Dinner with my husband, our first visit we were excited to try, however first thing they asked was if we had a reservation at 4pm, not another soul in the place. One other couple came in while we were there. Our server was very good, attentive and polite. The bruschetta was very good, but our steaks were ok and you only get one side for a $35 and up meal.. We were very hopeful for a great experience and food, but left disappointed. We ordered Ribeye with a side. I’ve eaten way better steaks at Texas Roadhouse with two sides for about the same price or less. The bathrooms were short on tp, mostly clean but worn out. They charge a hefty price for a 1st class experience but do not provide that. We doubt we will go back. But thanks for our great server.

This place was outstanding. Service was incredible, fast but not too fast. Our Waitress was great, she was friendly, fast and always making sure things were good for us. 10/10 going to be coming back.

Solo Diner, terrible experience. Overrated, not priced accordingly. House Mash are 🤌 The Ribeye was well cooked. But food is sad plated.

I had an excellent time at Rare. The steak was amazing (MP NY Strip) as well as the garlic asparagus (seasonal veggie) with the red wine offered a perfect compliment.
