Chops Resto Bar

New Yorker in for the New Year here. Chops was an outstanding experience from beginning to end. My brother and I were going in late after a show so we called prior to place our order to go and Andrea at the front desk happily invited us to sit and enjoy. By the time we got there our apps were already placed on our table ( tuna tartar and salmon tacos) both 10/10. Our waiter Amil was very professional and accommodating. We also ordered 3 of the special roles- probably some of the best sushi I’ve ever had including famous non kosher restaurants in NYC. The lamb chops were fresh, cooked to perfection and well seasoned. We stayed for dessert and tea- all around perfection.

Perfect service!! Melt in my mouth steak! I started with the chicken skewers - crunchy and juicy! How is that possible? I was recommended the "Grilled Korean Cap". Andrea, my server communicated expertly my steak preference of medium rare with intense searing on the outside. My expectations were exceeded. My meal was served with perfect timing, presentation enhanced my appetite, aromas and temperature made this a brilliant experience worth every penny. I will be back!!!

We were seated promptly (with reservation), the appetizers and main courses both arrived in a timely manner, the main courses came sufficiently after the appetizers, good coordination. The food was delicious!! Prices were reasonable. Waiter spoke perfect clear English. We highly recommend Chops!!

We had the most delicious dinner last night at Chops, and our waiter, Khan, was outstanding! He was warm, friendly and so helpful - all without hovering. One of the best meals and best service we have ever experienced. Can’t wait to come back!

Came in for lunch with a group. The restaurant was nearly empty but it still took a long time to flag down the waiter. Dishes came out one or two at a time. One dish came out, waiter was unsure whose it was, but rather than asking, he walked back to the kitchen with it. My meal was wrong; I ordered beef but got chicken for which they charge just as much. I could have complained but it was already one hour after we sat down and I had to get to work eventually. I will not be returning for lunch. They didn't have lunch specials. A burger and fries cost as much as a more exotic meal. This seems like a place to go when you have plenty of time and are willing to spend on a nice night out.

Food quality was excellent and tasty but overall experience was just ok. The menu is pricey. The deluxe burger was 32$, My wife and I shared a steak and we had our daughter who had the burger and it was 230$. The service was ok, not great, and the gratuity was already included at 18%. The place was nice but, but not Rib 'n Reef or 40 West nice. I felt I could have done better for the money.

Recently had my Birthday party here. Was super impressed with how friendly and organized Andrea was. The food was amaaaaazing and Igor makes the best drinks! I'll definitely be returning for more great food and service!

If the owner is reading this you NEED A NEW HOSTESS. I have never met a more unapproachable, no smile, rude and couldn’t care less attitude hostess. I reserved a table for 5 for 7:45. Arriving at 7:45 there was no table for 5 available. Apparently the hostess had given the table for 5 I reserved to a party of 4 who added a fifth person at the last minute. Only 2 of that young party had arrived and were seated at that time but she did not ask them to move and wait. Instead she had 3 of us standing at the door ( 2 are in our 60’s) waiting. She offered us a round table whose party had paid and were sipping tea. I told her sipping tea could still be awhile but she didn’t care. In the meantime 2 other couples, one with no reservation were immediately seated to a table of 4. After 15 minutes we were offered a table for 4 in thé back ( VIP section I think) with an extra chair added. She could have offered us this option at 7:45 instead of having us wait as this option was acceptable. The party at the round table sipping tea left at 8:45. Although I frequent Chops rarely each time this hostess has no smile on her face and couldn’t care less about the customer. She did not offer anything like free deserts or drinks for making us wait while standing and never came over to see if everything was OK. The Steaks were good but the chicken salad chicken was very dry and basically paid for salad. On thé upside the waiters were attentive and pleasant. I will not be going to chops in the near future.
