The food at the Easter brunch was cold, the prime rib was tough as leather. After spending over 200.00 for a family of 4 we will not be returning, and not due to the cost but because of the quantity of the food.

All 4 steaks were cooked incorrectly, and not by a little bit. The medium rare steaks were cooked medium well. The medium was rare . But hey I guess free dessert makes up for everything. We used to frequent the chop house often. I really doubt we will go back as long as it's under Pack brother's ownership. It has definitely gone straight down hill
