Best Steakhouses in Salem

We had four in our dinner party; 2 first time visitors. My wife and I shared the roasted seafood tower as our entry. Plenty of well prepared seafood items; lobster tails, shrimp (very large), snow crab, scallops and mussles. The broth was a winner too. One of our guests tried the scallops (for the first time) entree that included mushroom risoto. New fan of scallops. Other guest ordered the spicy pasta and enjoyed the preparation. Also ordered some of the specialty drinks. The bar prepared some exquisite drinks.

Family traveled from North Carolina and requested 5 O’clock. It’s our family tradition and we wanted to introduce some new family members. It did not disappoint! Best steak 🥩 ever!!!

Perfect evening! We love the Chop House, and tonight was even better! Marshall was a great server, personable, and offered menu suggestions to make our evening out even better! And the creamed corn was just right, as always!

Excellent as always. Good food great service. Love this place

We had been looking for the perfect opportunity to try this restaurant for years. When we planned to attend a show downtown, we decided it was finally time. We made a reservation and were promptly seated upon arrival. Our reservation was a bit early to accommodate the timing of the show, but it worked out perfectly. Although the restaurant is relatively new, it exudes the timeless charm of a classic steakhouse, complete with elegant dining booths and low lighting that creates a cozy and sophisticated atmosphere. The menu is well-curated--not overwhelmingly extensive but offering a variety of options. While we didn't receive a separate wine or cocktail menu, there were several appealing choices integrated into the main menu. Given the impressive wine cellar visible near our table, we assume a dedicated wine list might typically be available. For those not in the mood for steak, there's a decent selection of alternative entrees, though we opted for the steakhouse staples. We began our meal with soup--lobster bisque for me and French onion soup for my husband--both of which were excellent. For our main course, we chose steaks accompanied by sautéed mushrooms and truffle butter. Before our meal arrived, we were served warm, flaky popovers with maple butter, which were absolutely delicious. The lobster bisque was rich and flavorful, and the steaks were perfectly cooked and juicy. Every bite was a delight. The staff was attentive and thoughtful, ensuring we stayed on schedule for our show without feeling rushed. Though we briefly considered dessert, we decided against it since we didn't think we'd be able to finish. Still, the options sounded tempting. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our experience--the ambiance, service, and food exceeded our expectations. We'll definitely return!
