I know that sometimes there are mistakes at restaurants. And I also know that when you let the owner know about it he should at least pretend to care. While having dinner with my family a few months ago, I let the waiter know there was a mistake. He let the owner know who came to the table and asked... more

We went to this restaurant for Valentines Day. We've been to fine dining restaurants around the world, so we came with our own expectations. On entering, we were greeted warmly by the concierge and seated immediately since we had a reservation. Having read the reviews on here about the oven, I decided to ask the waitress about this. To be... more

Despite the negative reviews, we decided to try Chops because of its proximinty to us and in my view a restaurant cannot survive in a high rent district with bad food and poor service. We were pleasantly surprised to be greeted by Rich the owner at the door and were treated promptly and courteously by all of the wait staff... more

I love steak and have eaten great steak all over the country. Chops rates in the top ten with Mortons in Chicago, Jacks in Dallas, Prime Steak House in the Bellagio in Vegas, Tangos in Aruba and Moes in Milwaukee. I highly recomend the Bone in Ribeye while my wife favors the Fillet. Service has been great as well as... more

I would never recommend this place even to my worst enemy. The place was practically empty during our dinner while other competitor restaurants were packed. After our ordeal was over, we realized why. We ordered the steaks, medium well and they came BURNED on the outside all around. and pratically raw on the outside. We informed the waiter who informed... more

Fabulous!

We chose to eat here while staying in town for one night even with the negative reviews. We made a good choice because we had a fabulous dining experience. The restaurant is very romantic. There was one family with two small children and they wisely seated them by the piano. The atmosphere here is definetly for couples. We found the... more

If you are looking for a fine dining experience, do not choose Chops on the Lake. The manager will make you feel uncomfortable and harrass you if you have anythign negative to say at all. He is very rude and talks about customers as if they were the cattle he serves. If you're looking for class, Kenosha is not the... more

Our reservation was for 8:30 for 4 people. My husband and I arrived at 8:20 and were seated immediately. The bus boy came over and introduced himself (I wish I remembered his name he was great). Then we sat for 20 mins and not one waiter came over by us. There were other empty tables and plenty of servers (it... more

I haven't been to Chops in nearly a year, and have noted some bad reviews of it here so I wondered if the quality slipped. I was pleased to discover the Chops I know and appreciate for its excellent food, interesting wine list, and fine atmosphere is still there. We walked in without a reservation and were told we might... more

I went with my family of 4 including 2 kids under 7. We ordered grouper, pork chop, chicken fingers and the PB&J. The grouper came to the table so over cooked I didn't need to taste it, but I did. I informed the waitress it was definitely overdone. She took it back and 5 minutes later returned to the table... more
