Great food, our server Nick was amazingly friendly and knowledgeable of the menu. We were seated on the back patio / terase which was lovely

Cleveland Chop is a standout destination in a city where finding a truly top-tier steakhouse can often feel like a challenge. For anyone on a quest to curate a "Top 10" list of steakhouses from city to city, this spot firmly establishes itself as a leading contender for the best all-around steakhouse in Cleveland. The experience strikes a perfect balance in atmosphere. It avoids the stuffiness of overly exclusive, white-tablecloth establishments, instead offering a vibe that is simultaneously sophisticated enough for a special occasion and approachable enough for an upscale bar experience. The service is where the evening truly begins to shine. On a recent visit for a birthday celebration, the staff displayed an impressive ability to read the room, matching the high energy of the group without missing a beat. Most importantly, the pacing of the meal was flawless. Drinks and courses arrived at the table with precision—fast enough to keep the celebration moving, but never so quickly that the food felt like it had been languishing under a heat lamp. While many diners might overlook a Caesar salad as a standard starter, the version here is a must-try. The flavor profile is excellent, but the real star is the croutons; the texture and seasoning elevate the dish far beyond the typical steakhouse offering. The highlight, of course, is the steak. The Prime New York Strip, ordered medium, was a masterclass in execution. It arrived with a perfect crust and a deep, rich flavor that remained consistent from the first slice to the last bite. The interior was a flawless medium temperature throughout. Accompanying the steak was a loaded baked potato that was generously sized for one person, beautifully presented, and packed with flavor. To finish the meal, the key lime pie provides the perfect citrusy counterpoint to a heavy steak dinner—refreshing and exactly what was needed to hit the spot. For those who haven't visited since the location’s days as "The Chophouse" in the early 2000s, the evolution of this space is remarkable, yet maintains its high standard. It is a 10-out-of-10 experience that leaves you feeling completely satisfied. If the consistency holds, Cleveland Chop isn't just a great local choice—it’s a premier steakhouse by any standard.

Went for my birthday, service was perfect. My first filet was tough so I sent it back. Second filet was better but still not good, but I didn't want to send it back again. Also got a glass that was cracked. The dress code was disappointing as there were baseball hats and people dressed like they were at Texas Roadhouse. The white cheddar mashed potatoes were amazing and the brownie dessert was decadent. After dining at other local places that the food was far superior, I'm not sure I would return here.

Never had a bad meal here. Great appetizer options. Love the casual, old school, upscale atmosphere. Standard steakhouse options but with unique menu items mixed in.

We started off with the steak cigars which were delicious! For our main course he ordered the wagyu and I ordered the filet mignon and both were delicious! For sides he had the steak fries and I had the white cheddar mashed potatoes. He wishes he ordered the mashed potatoes too, they were so creamy and tasted amazing. For our Anniversary dessert, we ordered the brownie... it was heaven! Very moist and warm which complemented the cool Gelato on top. Our server was very busy so I gave that a 4 star. He asked my husband if he wanted a refill and I asked for more water also, but it never came and I had to wait for ice to melt to drink anything. He finally returned and I asked for water again and it came quickly. The prices are high, but not insane! It was definitely a good choice for a special dinner.
