Famous Steak House, Colorado Springs, Colorado Restaurant Details

Food:

Service is slow, food took a very long time to come out to us. It felt like the employees didn't even know we were there spending $300 dollars.

Food:

Enjoyed the environment, customer service and food. Winning combination.

Food:

Don't waste your money.

POSITIVES:
The people are pleasant, and rumor has it there's live music (though not on the night we went, which was a Monday). Also, we had mussels for an appetizer which were quite good. That's about the limit of positive things I have to say about this place.

THE NEGATIVE:
My fiancé started off with a dirty martini, asking for vermouth and no ice. So imagine his surprise when he got ice in the glass and no vermouth! For dinner, I had the pork Osso Bucco which was dry, crusty and almost tough. I had to request a steak knife to cut into it. My fiancé had the bone-in steak which was not scored, so while it was tender in the center it was tough on the ends. We had asparagus on the side, and not only did they not bother to cut off the sinewy bases, they served it with so-called "hollandaise" sauce which was really more like two dollops of mayonnaise.

Overall, it would have been fine if we weren't paying out the nose. But for $180 for a dinner for two, I'd expect a lot better quality.

Food:

My first time at this establishment. I walked in just looking for a quick bite to eat before hitting the town. I was severely under dressed (no one treated me any differently than if I'd worn a $10,000 suit). We sat at the bar, right beside the talented piano player, who was singing some of my favorite songs. The bartender promptly greeted us & took our drink order & food order. Everything about this place was excellent to me. The food, drinks, service & ambiance were all a perfect 10. Yes, it was expensive. But, if you want the best, you have to pay for it! I will be back!

Food:

We had high hopes for this well rated restaurant. However, it was underwhelming. Nothing really wrong with it but nothing really great about it. Food was cooked correctly, service was fine, and we went in expecting to pay a good amount of money. We just also excepted a great dish. Something above par, unique, and memorable. It was not that at all and not worth the investment. The biggest thing going against this place is the atmosphere. Pretty boring. All around, I'd say they're trying but just falling short.

Food:

"Step back" into a "classier" era at this "real Chicago-style steakhouse" in Colorado Springs, a "no-fail" for "enormous", "top-notch" chops, "delish" sides and "strong martinis", plus lunchtime "burgers to make you cry with joy"; it can get "noisy", but the "service and atmosphere are worth every penny", especially when you're seated in a "rounded booth" and the "lovely" pianist is at the keys.
