Enjoy the panoramic view of large oaks and a rolling stream from the many window-side tables, or the large, starlight deck. Or, savor the intimate atmosphere from a comfortable sofa, and in the winter, the warmth of a crackling fireplace.

Ryan's Chef creates a tantalizing selection of appetizers such as jumbo lump crabmeat, steamed mussels in garlic butter and white wine, and oysters Rockefeller. Entrees range from thick, juicy steaks and prime rib to the finest grilled fresh fish and live Maine lobster. Choose from the menu or a superb selection of specials offered nightly. Add a cappuccino and a freshly made dessert to seal the dining experience.

The restaurant has been locally owned and under the same management since 1981. Ryan's has been awarded the Wine Spectator's "Award of Excellence" and is often featured in national publications. Recently awarded the DiRoNa Award for Distinctive Fine Dining.

Please refer to our website for our dress code. It is enforced nightly.

    5-star dining as always ❤️ We love Ryan’s but this was the first time we’ve been at Christmas and it was extra-special! Food is always amazing, best steak you’ll find, and sitting right next to the fireplace tonight was perfect!

    My husband and I come to Ryan's Steak, Seafood, and Chops every year for my birthday, and this year was better than others in terms of noise level. Ryan's is a beautiful and intimate place to eat for date night, anniversaries, or other special occasion. The reason I am giving Ryan's less than five stars is because of the food. I ordered Ryan's salad, and my entree was jumbo pan-seared scallops with pearl couscous and asparagus. There was too much Gorgonzola cheese and bacon with a smidgeon of dressing ( a tasteless oil concoction). Next, the scallops had no taste either. For the price of my meal, I want to order food that is better tasting than what I could cook. Just disappointing.

    We had not been to Ryan's in several years. It was great then, and it still is! Great food, exceptional service, and a pleasant ambiance enhanced by all the holiday decorations. We were able to get a same-day reservation, which is not always the case. Highly recommend!!!

    Again, excellent food, service and ambience with tasteful Christmas decorations. We were celebrating my wife’s 74th birthday and we always enjoy celebrating special occasions at Ryan’s.
