We recently went to the Chop House for the first time, and expectations were a lot higher than they would be for a more casual place. We loved the atmosphere and the meal was good, but not great. For $54, I expect every bite of my steak to be melt-in-your-mouth delicious without gristle, and the baked potato was slightly undercooked and forgettable. Other sides, desserts, and martinis were superb. I agree about the “market price” gimmick: just stop it!
Just remember that top dollar doesn’t always equate to top quality, even with an upscale ambiance.
That said, would we go back? Yes, but only for a special occasion.
