Went to this steakhouse when both my friend and I were off red meat. lol It's a white table-clothed establishment featuring plenty of tables, full bar and a private room. It sits on a corner spot in a cute area of Ambler near Ambler train station. We went for the prix fixe option and everything was mostly tasty: -Riesling was nice -crabcake (breaded): okay; -chowder: well seasoned and hearty -chicken breast: tender, juicy and flavorful; potatoes underneath-smooth and delicious -salmon: sauce on top looked a little weird in color, but this was actually tasty, and cooked well-the broccolini underneath was a bit overcooked by texture and the potatoes were fine -cheesecake with blueberry compote The steaks passing by our table looked and smelled delicious-and we'd return to try them when we are back to eating meat. Service was okay-water glasses were refilled, server read us the specials from her flip pad, we were checked on by both the server and manager. The bussing left something to be desired -crumbs were left on the table, bread was served to several tables that came in after us before we received any, and my dining companion eventually gave up her plate before she wanted to-after being asked multiple times if she was finished with the entree she was trying to savor at a relaxed pace. We were happy not to deal with the hassles of trekking to downtown Philly and would return. read more

I really enjoyed how cozy the dining area was and I loved having a seat by the window! Everybody there was super nice, the service was excellent, and the food was incredible, the filet mignon and the ribeye were two of the best things I've ever tasted in my life, and the pear sorbet was wonderful. I appreciated the little candle for my birthday too! Highly recommended! read more

Bridget's is a lovely steakhouse on the corner of the block, right in the heart of Ambler. I went with a girlfriend and we shared a bunch of things. It was very crowded for a Tuesday, I was surprised. I suggest making a reservation, regardless of the day. There are two rooms that you can dine in, one is in the back of the restaurant and the other is out front and surrounded by windows. I personally like the room by the windows so you can people watch! You can also sit in the bar area, that sits in the middle of the two dining rooms. The ambiance in the back dining room was fine, but a little bit noisy. I think this is likely a result of the bar being right next to the dining room without a wall separating the rooms. Our server was friendly and attentive too. The food was quite good. We ordered an appetizer that was on special: scallops with peaches and brie. The scallops were a tiny bit undercooked, but super flavorful and I loves the presentation with the peaches, Brie and arugula. We also shared a salad which they graciously split for us. For our entrees, I got the rack of lamb. It was EXCELLENT. It was cooked perfectly and crusted with pesto and panko. Just delicious! My friend got the ribeye on special and she also loved it. My main complaint with Bridget's was the timing of the food and drinks coming out. We wanted to start with cocktails, and our appetizer came out before our cocktails. The cocktails seemed to take a very long time. After the appetizer came out, we also ordered the salad to share which came out almost immediately, before we'd even started our cocktails or our appetizer. We waited to order our entrees because we didn't want them to come out before we had finished our cocktails. Overall Bridget's was good, but seeing as they're an upscale and expensive restaurant, I think certain elements of the experience could be improved upon, specifically the timing of the food. The staff was very friendly, but they need to coordinate better with each other on timing. read more

We have been to Bridget's a few times but this was the first time for restaurant week. The menu was very good with something for everyone. The staff is really professional and nice. Our server, Matt, was great! He explained the specials and had a wonderful sense of humor. After dinner we grabbed a drink at the bar. The bartenders were nice, and chatted with us. The drinks were great! The whole place is very inviting, read more

This is our go-to neighborhood place and wow, are we lucky. From the drinks to the entrees and to the desserts, it's a 10 every time. Tonight, I'm enjoying the Halibut Franchaise. YUM read more

AMAZING!! If you love food w seasoning & flavor come here. I had multiple items for my sisters bridal shower party. Everything was cooked to perfection & tasted absolutely amazing. They started us off w these chicken bites w some type of drizzled sauce & scallions on top. Also tomato & mozzarella w a balsamic glaze of a stick. The real food came my niece got the salmon. I could not believe the size of this salmon I looked at others plates & they got the same huge size as her. I got the short ribs w green beans & mashed potatoes. Again another hefty size of meat & potatoes too. Dessert time. Chocolate chip bread pudding w a sauce over top. Holy Hannah amazing. The cheese cake was delicious too. If I had to knock this place I would probably only have to say the Caesar salad the lettuce was fresh the bread as the crouton was good but the actual dressing was a little on the blah side it wasn't potent in flavor. Also, there was a pasta w lobster dish that was served & very very little lobster in it. I did not have that dish but heard a few others make mention of that. We only had one server for the party she was quick, friendly & accurate. Sorry I didn't get her name. Also, not sure who made the drinks ( also didn't have one) but I heard they were heavy handed w the liquor. I think that is a plus if you ask me. This place is handicap accessible. Note there are 4 steps to get to the bathroom. Clean well kept building. Plenty of space. We had the entire left side of the restaurant w about 35 people & it didn't feel crowded at all. Also, the area we sat had huge windows from the front to the back to let in sun. I enjoyed that. I am definitely returning to this location & hope I enjoy it as much as the first go round. read more

Had a fabulous birthday dinner at Bridget's last night. The service and every dish was terrific - we have never received our appetizers so quickly! Calamari and Edamame dumplings were delicious. Filet cooked perfectly and the sauces on the Fra Diablo and Jambalaya were amazing! The bread pudding just capped off an amazing dinner - highly recommend! read more

My girlfriend and I came on Valentine's Day with no reservations it was packed so we went to the upstairs bar to sit and luckily there were seats open! Both bartenders were lovely and took our food and drink orders. They gave us great food recommendations and were very nice! For our appetizers we got the caesar salad and tuna poke crunch. Caesar salad had such good flavor and crunch with the crumbles of crouton one of the best Caesar salads I've eaten. Tuna was so fresh, great quality and taste. For dinner we had the filet mignon, we ordered rare and it was a little too rare lol but quality of the meat was great and it tasted really good so we didn't have a huge issue with it! We finished every bite! For dessert our bar tender recommend the chocolate chip bread pudding and it did not disappoint! Warm and great taste! Definitely would go back soon if I lived closer! read more

Bridget's Steakhouse on Butler in downtown Ambler, PA, is a lovely smaller beef shop. It is dressed in dark tones with attractive horseshoe bar and three dining rooms on different levels. We took over one of them for our office anniversary celebration. 35 of us in the one room was a bit tight, but we managed. Service was excellent with Victor handling everything from wine service to order taking and table delivery and our individual needs throughout the evening with only a little help from his friends. He is a master in the service game and deserves a big shoutout. We ordered dinner off a limited menu. Our table of four went three for the Bridget's Filet Mignon and one for the Atlantic Salmon (moi). I loved the fish, especially the over the top glaze and mushrooms underneath. Exquisite. My mates wolfed down the filet like there was no tomorrow, so it's safe to say they were tre satisfied. Each entre came with salad and choice of dessert. Mixed Greens and Vanilla Ice Cream were good, if not stars in their own right. I do have three nits to pick. First, the acoustics in our room were awful. We are a very chatty bunch and I could not hear the people sitting right next to me without leaning in and concentrating. The room needs some sound sculpting . Second, the room became colder during the evening. Perhaps they were encouraging us to leave, but my table was shivering by 9:00. Third, our event began at 6, but we weren't served until nearly 8. That's too long for drinks and conversation. We were hungry when we arrived, drank on empty stomachs, and needed to sit down with chow much sooner than we did. The banquet manager really needed to have that worked out before we arrived. This all made for a disjointed party. I imagine that Bridget's is a perfect spot for a steak dinner date, but it needs some attention to larger gatherings. Perhaps our folks continued to talk too much while standing around, but someone needed to have a better handle on the logistics. 3.75 Beefy Stars read more

Wonderful time at Bridget's and we will certainly be coming back! My boyfriend's sister recommended the spot for a nice dinner and we were very pleased. It has a nice ambiance without being stuffy and excellent, friendly service. We very much liked both the host who sat us and the server, especially as the host was nice enough to call us because my boyfriend left his sunglasses. For food, I got the summer special - $43 for a three course meal. It was a heck of a deal with delicious food. I had the soup du jour, which was a red pepper base with corn and crab. It was delicious and I'd never had a soup like it. For my main, I got a 6oz filet mignon cooked to perfection. As a heads up, you can upgrade to the 8oz for another $7 but 6 is enough for me. The mashed potatoes and green beans accompanying it were delicious. For my dessert, I got the chocolate chip bread pudding which was soooo good. Everything I ate was absolutely fabulous. My boyfriend got the lobster risotto, which I stole heartily from, and was well worth it. I'd say this dish was the biggest MUST HAVE of the meal. He also had the jambalaya, which was very tasty, and finished with a lovely apple pie. Everything was good, but I wouldn't leave without the lobster risotto. Can't wait to come back! read more

The atmosphere here is very nice. Our waiter Peter was great and hospitable. The drinks were good had a margaritas and a glass of wine. Delicious must try. read more

Fancy steakhouse dining. Delicious food. Steak could be charred a little less, but overall cooked well. There is a variety of meat choices. Appetizers were phenomenal, especially the calamari. And desserts were icing on the cake. The restaurant is large and has many tables available for seating and huge bar area. The ambience is very social. Attire is casual to semi-formal. The service of the place was great. Waitresses and waiters were very friendly and accommodating with our needs. Parking can be tough, but there is a large parking lot (for the train) nearby. Overall, highly recommend trying this restaurant! read more

Bridgets Steakhouse - Steakhouses Near Me - Ambler, Pennsylvania

Food and ambiance great. We picked the place to celebrate our 49th anniversary. The service was either under staffed or we were ignored. We were the first ones seated for the 6:30 reservation on a Saturday night. Other couples came and went before we were looked after. The other couples had their dinner plus multi drinks and dessert. I still don't understand how they ate & left before we were finished our meal. No one asked if l needed more water or a second drink. My entrée was delivered and it was the wrong platter. It is immediately it was replaced. It was delicious. Then we were basically ignored. After more than ten minutes I had to get up and get the manager to clear our plates after finishing our dinners. All hopes of dessert or a second drink was dashed because of their neglect. I guess the service was just off. read more

This is the first time I returned since 2016 when the rudeness of the hostess caused us to leave rather than put up with her shit. This time we tried the upstairs bar where the best tender of drinks in the area was working his magic with the tightly packed Friday happy hour crowd. Besides excellent cocktails, I should have left instead of sucking down average food at best. The Jambalaya, which I was reco'd by a non-foodie type, was mediocre in flavor and presence, nothing special. The tuna Tataki, ditto. I'll return for cocktails and ambiance, but will be hard pressed to order anything else, unless someone else is paying. read more

Always a great meal and the service is spectacular. Our server, Dillon was so friendly and explained the specials along with some recommendations. We come here every now and then but are treated as if we are family. My husband's favorite is the pork chop but I love everything they serve. Headed back for hubby's birthday. Highly recommend for date night or just a great night out! read more

Mixed review here. As delicious as our food was, our server lost track of us several times so our glasses sat empty... awkward pauses in the timing of our apps/meal/dessert delivery... but once we got it, the food was delicious. The restaurant is super loud, bordering on too noisy. It's also very dark. read more

The upstairs at Bridgets was such a cool chic place to hang out with a beautiful spirits display bar and just an overall elegant vibe. We have been there many times and it was our happy place. Unfortunately, the recent expansion is such a disappointment and really downgraded the room and the experience. The mirrored display bar is gone replaced with a silly looking wood niche with a few bottles, the ceiling is low, and the bathroom doors open right into the room feeling like a gas station. The larger TV is mounted on the wall in the corner and the new bar area just looks cobbled together like something in a frat house. There are no interesting design elements to make it special or attractive. The food is till good but whoever did this expansion design did a total disservice to what was a neat space. Sad. read more

Solid dinner option in downtown Ambler with a good menu selection that offers something for everyone. It's not an "old school" steakhouse with monstrous sized steaks like you would get at a Smith & Wollensky but the food is solid and the servers are very friendly. This is definitely a local destination and many of the patrons seemed to know each other and the servers, which is always nice to see. A few highlights: 1. Lobster risotto: This is a must-try and the portion size is small enough to whet your appetite as a starter. The risotto is creamy, accented with parmesan, and comes with plenty of lobster meat. It's decadent yet still light. 2. Tuna duet: It's a solid duo of seared ahi and a tuna tartare which has a creamy, mayo base. 3. Ribeye: Solid but the cut is on the thin side - it's decent but not a match for the cajun ribeye from Smith & Wollensky's. This one is a respectable 14-16 oz vs a 20-24 oz bone-in. 4. Short ribs: Solid short rib served over a creamy, horseradish mashed potato base. 5. Jambalaya: Solid with a nice kick and plenty of jumbo shrimp. It's good but the flavors are not as complex as I have had at Creole venues - it will satisfy a craving in a pinch (and to be fair, there is NOT a plethora of jambalaya options in the area...). 6. Seafood Fra Diavolo: This was probably my favorite dish of the night with plenty of fresh JUMBO scallops and shrimp in a spicy tomato-based jus. The linguini itself was more cooked than my personal preference (which is more on the al dente side) but the overall dish was quite good. 7. Truffle fries: Solid fries with just a hint of truffle - don't use the ketchup as that will easily overpower the light truffle. 8. Brussels sprouts: A solid take on a classic with a sweet maple glaze. It's a good option for a group dinner close to home with a neighborhood vibe and great service. read more

As much as I wanted the ribeye (which looked beautiful compared to the NY strip), I didn't want to get the same thing both my parents got. So suffice it to say, my steak wasn't bad, but could've been better. The main highlight, recommended by our waitress is the calamari. The best way to describe it is having pad thai, but without the noodles and put all that into the calamari. In addition to that appetizer, I ordered brussel sprouts, since just about every place back home no longer sells it. These were good at first, but burnt for the most part. The complimentary bread was yummy as well. Made the mistake of eating too much of it, that I didn't have room for dessert. Our waitress was very persistent in getting me to order one. Next time, promise! read more

Good service and ambience! Filet was good but a little overcooked. The sauce was not what I was expecting, but it was good. Mashed potatoes and green beans had good flavor but they were cold :( My husband got the cheesesteak, which he said was very peppery to the point it was not that enjoyable. 4 stars still because I'd def go back and try again! Seems like a great place. read more

We went to this place to celebrate Father's Day. I had never heard of it but being that it was a steakhouse I figured it would be a little expensive but hoped it would be worth it. It was absolutely worth it. The food did not disappoint!! The service was great! The music that was playing was a genre that I could relate to and it just made my experience that much more enjoyable. My stepfather kept saying "this place was really nice and the food was really good!" I highly recommend this restaurant and I look forward to going back! read more

Title: Mixed Experience with Ups and Downs Our visit to Bridget's Steakhouse was eagerly anticipated, and while the food lived up to expectations, earning a solid three out of five stars, the overall experience had its highs and lows. On the positive side, the Jerry Garcia theme added a unique touch to the ambiance. The woman who brought our food was not only efficient but also delightful, fun, and funny, enhancing our dining experience. However, parking proved to be a challenge, and we had to park at Julia's despite the sign against it. It's not very clear where parking is exactly for Bridget's. so if you go definitely factor in a significant amount of parking and walking time. Unfortunately, the less-than-enthusiastic waitress dampened our celebration. While the food was enjoyable, her lack of engagement and difficulty in sharing a joke puzzled us, especially considering we observed her comfortably joking with her manager throughout the night. It left us questioning why she could share humor with him but not extend the same to us. It was a bit of a letdown for a first visit. Adding to the experience, I showed her a picture of a drink shared on the restaurant's Instagram the day before. Surprisingly, she claimed not to know what it was and thought it might have been a special drink from the previous day. She never took the initiative to find out for me. This added to the overall frustration during an otherwise promising visit. Bridget's Steakhouse has potential, but a friendlier and more attentive staff could make all the difference. And I just want to add one more final thing, to anyone on this restaurant reviews page complaining that they were asked to remove their hat, the restaurant was in the right. This is not a restaurant where you wear a hat. This is my very last note, but I just went to put a review on Google, and I see that this restaurant was political as a supporter of trump and pence. This is beyond disappointing. Definitely won't be returning now. read more

I know this place doesn't need my review as I'm sure everyone has had the same great experience. I've been here a few times the last couple years and it's never disappointed. Easter dinner was definitely a success with fantastic cocktails, lobster risotto, and a perfectly cooked ribeye. Our waitress was extremely friendly and helpful. The owner/manager came by and asked how everything was and was extremely personable. You don't always get that personal service these days. I'm looking forward to coming back soon. read more

My son turned 18 years old on 24th March so we dined here.. Allan was our server. Parking: limited metered street. Can park in the SEPTA train station. Atmosphere: low light comfy. Service: Allan was our server and he was nice and attentive. The hostess allowed us to drop the cake off prior to our reservation and brought it out for us to sing happy birthday. Cocktail: mango bellini. Didn't taste much mango. Food: Appitizer: Fried Calamari with Cornmeal Crusted Calamari, Sweet Chipotle Glaze, Banana Chips, Oatmeal Clusters & Bean Sprouts. It was different but tasty. I ordered the Braised Braised Short Ribs* 12 Hour Braised Ribs, Roasted Tomato Beef Jus, Potato du Jour and asparagus. Omg!! The short ribs were sooooo delicious! Very flavorful and tender!. The potatoes left we wanting more! I lifted up my short ribs to see if there were more underneath! My Son ordered Bridgets Filet Mignon* Center Cut Filet Mignon, Shiitake Reduction Laced with Sake, Green Onions, Sesame Seeds, Potato du Jour & Garlic Green Beans, lobster and scallops. He said the steak was Goof. He enjoyed the scallops the most. Nephew ordered Rib Eye* Spice Rubbed Grilled Rib Eye, Horseradish Cream, Crispy Onion Straws and French fries. He enjoyed his meal and steak was cooked just right. Overall our first time dining here was very good. We look forward to coming back Enjoy your experience. read more

Service was excellent, friendly, prompt, and helpful, wine was excellent, ambiance warm and inviting. The steak was awful. I decided on the dry aged rib eye. Never had dry aged so I thought I'd give it a try. Chewy, gristly, dry for medium rare, no sear on the outside, nothing special "dry aged" rip off ,just a disappointing, lousy $62.00 cut of meat. I should have complained to the manager, server, but I didn't. My bad. Maybe they do better with other cuts. Someday I may go back and take another chance. read more

We were here with friends for dinner on a Sunday night. It's a nice restaurant with bad acoustics and very high prices. The acoustics are terrible. There is so much noise generated at the bar that there is no dining area that's quiet. We had to shout at each other all evening and we could barely hear our server. As a matter of fact, he could barely hear us. Having to shout definitely made dinner unpleasant. The food was good but way overpriced. 4 appetizers, 2 surf and turf dinners for two and 4 desserts was $500 with tip. That is outrageous! We do not drink alcohol so, it was diet cokes only. The surf and turf for two was really just enough for 1 person. It came with a small filet sliced, 1 lobster tail, 1 serving of asparagus and mashed potatoes and a small pot of shrimp, scallops and shredded crab meat. When the platters arrived at our table both my husband and my friends husband said "this looks good, what are you girls going to eat?". My thoughts exactly. Good thing we had bread, appetizers and dessert. Like I said, the food was good and the service was excellent but even our server agreed on the portion sizes. When he had dinner there with his mother they ordered the surf and turf for two AND the rack of lamb in addition to appetizers. Unfortunately, Bridget's is a one and done for us. read more

Seasonal cheesecake is absolutely THE BEST CHEESECAKE #1 in the world here. And I'm still dreaming about it and looking for a recipe :)))

I had a wonderful night at Bridgets. The location is great for the summer nights and we had a chance to sit by a big open window. The breeze felt good because it was kind of muggy. I suggest not sitting by the window if you are hard of hearing because the street noise does get loud at times. We were about 10 minutes early for our reservation but were still seated promptly. Friendly staff wore mask and the restaurants tables were spread well enough apart. Our server was very friendly. He gave us a list of specials, and answered all of our questions. My date ordered the duck with fingerling potatoes and Brussels sprouts and I had a New York strip steak with the mash potato of the day and Brussels sprouts as well. For dessert we ordered warm apple pie with ice cream and creme brûlée. We started our dinner with salad and a tomato and crab flat bread. My salad was not heavily dressed and lack flavor. The flat bread was okay but did not have a lot of crab flavor. Our entrees of steak and duck were very good. My steak was a bit more done then I'd prefer but it was still good. The pepper sauce on my steak was perfecMy date said the duck was tender and went perfect with the figs. Dessert was really good as well. Although the portion size for the Apple pie is over kill. I would think a suggestion of sharing should accompany this dessert. All and all I'd love to come back for a non Covid 19 or Covid 19 date night. I appreciate all the hard work of the staff who worked hard to make things enjoyable. 08/15/20 I came back for another round. Food was amazing, the server was really nice and gave great service. Was really off put by listening to the manager(maybe owner) talking loudly with table nearby about politics. read more

Good food, good service. I will go back. It's a nice place to go to. Relaxing and enjoyable is how I would describe my experience.

My 92 year old father had dinner there the other night and asked the manager for help with the tip. He was charged $500 on a $175 check. He claims that is what my dad said, a $325 tip. No questions or clarification asked. Now they refuse to refund the money. Be careful read more

The food was delicious, absolutely amazing and done to perfection. My Tuna Tataki was perfect. Last time we ate there, I had the Salmon which was out of this world. Lots on the menu for everyone's tastes. The atmosphere and staff were perfect. Our Bartender, Randi was friendly, knowledgeable and fabulous!! This place does not disappoint. Even ran into a dear friend, and helped her celebrate her birthday!! Thanks for a wonderful dining experience. We WILL be back for more deliciousness, fun, laughs and good times soon. read more
