My parents and I came here around 6pm last week and the bar area was packed with people coming for happy hour. This made the restaurant quite loud, which took away from the atmosphere. The service was very attentive however; our waiter checked in on us several times throughout the meal and we always had full waters. Moving on to the meal, we started with a lobster and shrimp ravioli appetizer and the calamari, both of which were delicious. I also ordered a strawberry cocktail off the drink menu and wasn't the biggest fan. It was very strong and needed some sweetness to balance out the flavors. For my main course, I had the rib eye, which was amazing. It was cooked perfectly and was very tender and flavorful. My mom had the aged sirloin, which I wasn't a big fan of as it barely had any flavor. For the very steep price I would say it wasn't worth it. My dad ordered the duck which I also really enjoyed. Overall, the food definitely was not cheap but Bridget's is a good place to check out for a special occasion! read more

We went to Bridget's Steakhouse last night for a friends birthday. We had honestly never even heard of Bridget's even though it's only a few miles from our house. We arrived a little early for dinner so we sat at the bar to wait for our friend to show. The building is very nice inside, quite a bit nicer than I was expecting actually. The drinks were a little on the expensive side ($8 for an Amstel) especially for the suburbs. Our friend arrived and we went to our table. The waiter came over and started running through the specials and making recommendations on different menu items. One recommendation was their calamari appetizer which he stated "is the best calamari East of the Mississippi". With a ballsy statement like that we had to give it a shot. The calamari is crusted in cornmeal and covered with a chipotle glaze which is pretty different. It's not the Best East of the Mississippi in my opinion, but it's damn good. One of the specials was a Black Angus NY Strip with a garlic cream sauce. As soon as the waiter mentioned it, I set down my menu ... there was no sense in looking anymore, I knew what I was getting. My steak came out and it was absolutely incredible. It was cooked a perfectly and the flavor was awesome. The garlic cream sauce really enhanced the flavor of the steak, it's making my mouth water just thinking about it. It was so good my wife couldn't stop stealing pieces and she doesn't eat red meat. On the dessert menu Bridget's has Banana's Foster which is probably the main reason my wife couldn't wait to go. In fact she only ate 2 bites of her entree yet managed to eat her entire dessert. The Bananas Foster was very good and she was in melted ice cream and caramel heaven. The price for dinner is on the expensive side. It is pretty comparable to what you'd pay at one of the High End Steakhouses in the city. The experience and the food were definitely worth it though. All told Bridget's was a wonderful experience. We have a new local steakhouse and we will certainly be back in the future, most likely pretty often. read more

First time here. Enjoyed my family time. Food was just very average to put it politely. Dry aged new york strip special ~$50 midrare was very very chewy. Not a great cut at all. Sea bass special ~$40 was ok. Loved the crunch but lacked alot of flavor. Saw the other reviews and was excited. Maybe a bad night during the start of Restaurant week in Ambler. read more

Bridget's continues to amaze with both their creations from the kitchen and the inviting and talented staff. Just tried the crab cocktail. Great presentation. Even better taste. Appointed with drops of guacamole and cocktail sauce. You cannot go wrong with this appetizer. read more

I had dinner here for my 25th birthday. I originally had reservations down town but because of the weather and strong storms I opted to stay local. Service was excellent and not over baring. Timing of dishes was also on point and the food tasted great. Overall, the experience was great and I would return! read more

I had my eye on having dinner @ Bridget's for a while and it definitely did not disappoint! It is great for special occasions!! The service was excellent. Eric was our server and was very kind and took the time to answer all of our questions! The food was very delicious. I had one of the specials which was a sea bass and it was very good. Everything I ate and drank tasted amazing! It definitely surpassed my expectations! My only complaint was we were seated near the bar area and it was very loud with a live band playing. I was with a party of 6 and it made it very difficult to hear. The next time I come here I will definitely request that my group sits in the separate dining area that seemed a lot more quiet and intimate! read more

Bridgets Steakhouse has been wonderful each time I have eaten there. The first time we generally looked down our noses at it, thinking that we were going to pay Philadelphia prices for a joint in Ambler. Boy were we shocked! The food was EXCELLENT!!! I don't usually rate places based on service, but the service was top notch! We were so impressed that we decided to book the restaurant for our rehearsal dinner! They handled the big party as expertly as they did a table for two. Each time the food has been exemplary, the service outstanding, and the atmosphere perfect! read more

Bridgets was a nice surprise for my wife and I. We stopped in last week to celebrate our wedding anniversary. They offer complimentary valet parking which is nice, especially in Amber where parking can be a hassle. We had 5:30 reservations, we were sat immediately. Upon arrival I was a bit skeptical, the restaurant was empty. It also had a strange smell, almost a musty smell. Our server was nice, he was knowledgeable about the menu and went over the specials. As the restaurant got busier, his service lacked a bit. It was tough to get a refill. He also kept rubbing his hair which is a bit unsanitary. Thankfully they have food runners. I went with the 16oz ribeye that was served with mashed potato, haricot vert and added a ceaser salad. Both of our salads came out pretty fast and fresh. Both were perfectly dressed. The crostini on the ceaser was just a tease. The balsamic on my wife's salad was some of the best we've had. The steak, it was amazing! It had a nice steak rub on it and was cooked to perfection! It was charred on the outside and tender on the inside. I could have done without the onion straws and had more of the horseradish sauce. The sauce also lacked the depth in flavor, it didn't taste much like horseradish. The potatoes were also delicious and creamy, just wish there were more. The haricot vert were too al dente for my liking. My wife went with the prefix filet with the same sides. It's a great deal at $35.00. It included an appetizer and dessert. Her filet was also seasoned well and cooked to perfection. The glaze on the steak was also very good. I did prefer my steak over hers. We finished the meal with the chocolate chip bread pudding. OMG it was so good! It was sweet but not overly and the fresh whipped cream was a nice balance. Other than a few small issues, we had a good meal and we would return. Solid 4 stars. read more

Came in for lunch with clients. Ordered the corn and chicken chowder as an appetizer. It was good but needed salt and pepper which were not on the table. Had the crab cake BLT with side salad which was very good. Sandwich came with smoked bacon and guacamole (which was good as it was a little spicy). The crab was panko crusted and there was not much filler. Would come back again. read more

We went here last night for our anniversary. I was very encouraged that they were so busy for a Wednesday evening. The server was great. We started with the Burrata, def recommend. My husband got the rib eye special. Super thin cut and very fatty. (Yes I know it's a fattier cut) but for the price so not worth it. I got the seafood pot, mussels were good, lobster was over cooked and tough and the broth under whelming. Removing the corn off the cob was great, but it was not removed in a cluster so you had to fish through the broth. The restaurant itself was nice nothing fancy. My husband did like the old fashion he had. Would consider going again but aim more for a basic dish like a burger or a couple apps for the prices they charge. read more

Very disappointed the owner Kevin does not know how to talk to people and thinks he is God's gift to earth don't recommend it along with no where to park unless you pay read more

I don't know why I haven't tried Bridget's sooner. My wife and I decided to give Bridget's a try for the first time tonight and we were not disappointed. We started with the fried calamari which was sweet and spicy and delicious. I had the dry aged ribeye which was cooked to perfection with a great fire grilled char. My wife had the braised short ribs which she described as "a warm hug". Shout out our waiter Keenan who had wonderful personality and made our experience great! Thank you Bridget's we will definitely be back. read more

My husband and I went to Bridgets last night to celebrate our wedding anniversary, and they did not disappoint!! The hostess was super nice, she even wished us a happy anniversary as she was seating us. Everything was super clean and orderly and Covid compliant. Our table was not near anyone else's and every staff member was wearing a mask! We ordered the calamari and pot stickers for appetizers-delicious!! I had filet and my hubs had surf and turf for dinner. Both steaks were cooked perfectly! Our waiter was super helpful and nice. And for dessert they even put candles in it for us. The best! Hands down the best restaurant we've been to in a while. We will definitely be back! read more

After hearing some great things about Bridget's, we decided to try it for their special Mother's Day takeout dinner. We have been trying to support local restaurants as much as possible and have had wonderful experiences at other restaurants aside from this one. We paid $80 for two meals, I thought the bag felt a little light when I picked it up but didn't think much of it. We opened a bottle of very nice wine (I regret that now!) only to discover these VERY small portions upon opening the containers. I got the filet and my husband got the lamb, both barely enough food for our 11 year old let alone an adult. And we're not big eaters. I struggled all the next day with whether or not to call and give feedback, but I was so disappointed I decided I needed to. I spoke with Steve, who never apologized that we were disappointed, explained that their takeout menu is always smaller portions than dining in. If that's the case, you need to let customers know when they order. For a local restaurant, I was very surprised to be treated that way. It would have been nice if Steve said sorry about this, please consider trying us again. Nope, nothing. Avoid this place. read more

Bridgets Steakhouse - Mother's Day Dinner - Steakhouses Near Me - Ambler, Pennsylvania

5 stars for drinks and atmosphere, 0 for food. Whipped ricotta "seasonal accompaniment" strawberry? Strawberries are in season the first two weeks of June. It's February. Lamb chops were cooked to specifications, but had no seasoning. No salt, no pepper, nothing. The most bland meat ever. Lobster risotto was too tomatoey. Super disappointed in the food, such a bummer for a beautiful bar with great cocktails. read more

Bridget's Steakhouse is a suburban gem in bustling downtown Ambler! We took my daughter, her fiancé, his mom and his stepdad out to celebrate the engagement! Everything was wonderful. The drinks were perfect (as was our wine) and the meal was stellar. Several had the steaks and, even with the person with dietary restrictions, all was perfect! I had the special striped bass on crab risotto and it was amazing-I usually don't finish my entree but I almost licked the plate clean. Creme Brûlée was the favored dessert at our table and none was left!! Our servers were so conscientious! The ambiance in the restaurant is great too! We will going back in a a few weeks to celebrate by daughter's birthday! read more

came to bridgets for a nice steak dinner and did not disappoint. we got the bridgets best, which comes with filet mignon and dry aged sirloin, and we topped it off with a ribeye. someone from my party had never had a steak beyond an overcooked 2 cm thick piece of sirloin, so seeing the eye opening epiphany of how great steaks can be was totally worth it. the only downside of my experience was how many dulled knives i had! but i chalk that up to just how seasoned and experienced the steakhouse was. if you want a quality steak without the city cost, bridgets is definitely worth it. read more

We had made 6:30 pm reservations and were promptly sat in the room adjoining the bar. The bar was completely filled with happy hour patrons and was deafeningly loud. The room we were in was very large with high ceilings, large windows, and about ten tables. Curiously, some tables had table cloths on them, but ours did not. Equally odd was that the TV on in this room was showing a tennis match. For starters, we ordered the Caesar salad and Crabmeat cocktail. We also ordered the Basil Cocktail and Flirtini. When the waiter brought the drinks out, he served the wrong drink to the wrong person. While I am comfortable enough to drink such a girly named drink as the Flirtini, that was meant for my wife. Strike one. The Caesar was brought out to me and Crabmeat cocktail to my wife. Wrong again. Strike two. For the main course we both ordered the Filet Mignon. Before this was brought out, we waited an inordinate amount of time for our table to be cleared of the appetizers. While this was not a huge deal, I expect a certain level of service at a nicer restaurant. I also ordered a Stateside Mule and a glass of Moscato for my wife. Unfortunately, they were out of Moscato, so we settled on Prosecco. The Stateside was an excellent choice and I do recommend that drink. The steaks were prepared as we like and were delicious. The sauce/glaze on the steak with accompanying mashed potatoes were certainly a highlight. For dessert we ordered the Creme Brûlée and Bananas Foster. I also ordered a Kentucky Cappuccino to round out our order for the night. All three things were quite good, although the Bananas Foster lacked the artful plating I expected of that dish (tableside flambé is called for here). Overall, the food itself was good. The ambience was a complete miss. I would highly suggest not sitting in the large room that adjoined the bar if you would like to hold a conversation. The tennis on the TV was tacky, even having a TV in a steakhouse of this ilk is ill-advised. The chairs looked like they belonged at a Tiki bar. Our main waiter was decent, however the secondary waitstaff that brought out incorrect dishes was disappointing. While we already paid the check and were finishing off our drinks, the same waiter that fumbled prior, actually came to our table again with another table's appetizers. Strike Three. This simply should not happen. Upon exiting, there was some sort of monkey holding peppermints, which I have only seen at neighborhood Chinese restaurants. Tacky. read more

We started with the lobster risotto that was not only over-priced, but salty. My hubby ordered the salmon that was not cooked all the way through. I also ordered a salad that should not have had bacon in it but did. We spent nearly $100 on a meal we couldn't eat. The mac n' cheese and risotto were the only edible choices we had when got home. Spending a few dollars on a GREAT meal is never a problem. This restaurant was just not it for us, it was not giving what was expected. read more

Ate there once before and food is great!! Tried to eat there last night at 7:30 and had to leave because of nose level. If you want good converstion on a Friday night you are better off at a Metallica concert. Will go back at less busy times because I really did enjoy the meal and would give a 5 star for any times other than peak hours. read more

Excellent restaurant in Ambler. Celebrated my birthday with mom. They offer a fantastic prix fixxe 3 course meal for $35 from 5-6 PM and all day Monday's. We both enjoyed the crab cake for appetizer. I enjoyed the Seafood Fra Diavolo with scallop and shrimp and my mother's filer was cooked to perfection and melted in your mouth. Last, we both enjoyed our desserts too. The cheesecake and bananas foster were both great. Service was excellent! read more

Dined here Saturday evening after the movies at the Ambler theatre. We were immediately seated, he hostess was very pleasant and helpful our sever Peter the same. As this was our 1st time dining here I was very pleased with the level of service and where we were placed to dine. As you 1st walk in the bar in directly in front of you seating there and to the right. Then further to the right is another room with maybe 12 tables which is where we sat, very romantic vibe. Dark walls dimly lit.To the left side was additional seating more crowded on that side but from 1st glance it was not as romantic as the lighting was brighter and if I recall the walls were red. I had a mango Bellini which was delicious. The bread was served warm with a dish of butter. I had the ceased salad, my companion the crab cake as appetizer. Only down side is that we don't eat pork and there was bacon on the crab cake plate that wasn't mentioned in the menu description. He said the crab cake was tasty. For our entrees I went with the seafood risotto with was so delicious full of shrimp,mussels & lobster chucks, the sauce was rich and creamy. My companion had the Atlantic salmon... I'll assume it was good, the plate was clean & I wasn't offered any... lol. We shared the roasted Brussel sprouts without the bacon and they too were well prepared charred to perfection with the right about of sweet. For dessert I had warm apple pie without the caramel sauce! OMG I wish I had a piece right now! I was so full but I ate and enjoyed EVERY BITE. I would definitely recommend. I background music was soulful which I enjoyed. I definitely would recommend! read more

I love Bridgets. As an Ambler resident, I have been there countless times including my last two wedding anniversaries . The food and drinks are always delicious, from their steaks to their steak sandwiches and fish dishes and the service from the wait staff has always been impeccable. Unfortunately, a recent very negative experience with the host, Steve, left me shocked and angry. I told him that I was offended by his mask and that the wearing of such an face covering did not seem appropriate in such a venue, noting that no one wants to have politics in their face at a professional establishment. Instead of just apologizing for causing any, perhaps unintended, offense, he said he had no other mask to wear because the company was not providing the staff with PPE. To make matters worse, when I then posted a one star review, Steve bullied me online. And the owner sent my sister, who had no hand in this review, an angry text. So I removed that review and replaced it with this. 5 stars for food, drinks and wait staff , and negative 2 for management. read more

It was our anniversary tonight and I wanted to make reservations for a really nice dinner so I made reservations here on a coworker's recommendation. Great food. That's all I heard. So when I made reservations I said it was our anniversary. Table was okay. A little loud. Not a very romantic seating. Waiter was accommodating but food delivery was not. We shared appetizer and basically just thrown on table by bus boy. I must say delicious. Grilled scallop and mini crab cake with onion corn purée. Dinner my husband ordered lobster risotto with muscles. He loved it. Mine was the grilled Tuna with Lo Mein. Really good came medium rare even though I ordered medium. Still delicious. Dessert the infamous banana foster. Another delicious offering. So if you want a really tasty meal but don't care about service loudness food just thrown on table this is the one place to go. read more

My favorite restaurant in Ambler. Great food, good drinks, and nice staff. I totally recommend!

Consistently high quality steaks, seafood and lighter fare too. Try the au poivre cheesesteak (three different steak cuts, and which comes with their amazing fries) for something new--at 20 bucks, it's roughly twice what you'd pay for a "standard" csteak, but easily 10 times better, and a filling meal! read more

Thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Bridget's. We started our visit at the bar and the drinks were really good and reasonably priced. We then were seated for our reservation. We were assigned a fabulous waiter who provided fabulous service and was very entertaining. We started out with appetizers, I ordered the lobster risotto as an appetizer and It was amazing. My friend had the Ahi Tuna and she really enjoyed it. We ordered the surf and turf for two. The meal was enormous, plenty for two. The filet and lobster were perfectly cooked and tasted so good. The scallops, crab meat and shrimp were also perfection. The potato DuJour was very tasty and the asparagus was perfectly cooked. I can't say enough good things about this meal. We ordered Banana Foster for dessert and it was also amazing. Great Drinks, Food and service, what more could you ask for!! read more

The server and bartender were amazing. The food was good. However, it looks online like a fancy restaurant but I hosted a special occasion dinner there and it's an extremely loud sports bar. Like shouting and not hearing anyone except the two adjacent seats, barely. They could fix the acoustics but for some reason do not. read more

Unfortunately the good service and good taste of the food is overshadowed by the very small portions. My husband took me here for my 40th birthday tonight, and we each ordered an appetizer, entree, and dessert. We also had a soda and a mixed drink. I was shocked by the small portion of the seafood fra diavolo we both ordered. It was 2 shrimp, a half of a scallop, and a very, very small portion of pasta that was sprinkled with shredded crab meat. I had a hard time believing they intended to make our portions so tiny, we almost asked the server if maybe they sent us an appetizer portion or shared one entree between us. Not even 1 whole scallop? The taste of the dish was good, but had we not ordered appetizers, dessert, and extra bread, we would have left very hungry. I felt bad for my husband as we just got married and moved to the area, and he tried to make my birthday special by taking me to this popular restaurant, but we walked out feeling disappointed. read more

Our team had a great dinner at Bridgets last night. None of us had been before and we all really enjoyed the food. Most of us ate steak. The potato of the day was a pepper jack mashed potato and it was tasty. My filet was cooked perfectly. They have a good wine list. No one was in the mood to indulge for dessert but the menu looked incredible, and I will be back to try it. The area is also really cute. I will definitely be back. read more

Definitely my favorite steakhouse in town. We had the pre fixed menu, which was a great value. The crab cake was the best appetizer, it had great texture and flavor. For entree we had the 6 oz filet and the seafood fra diavolo. Both were amazing, if this review were for just the quality and flavor of food I would give it 5 stars. The only downside was service. We waited a few awkward minutes at the hostess stand as no one was there to greet or seat us even though we had reservations and it was not very busy. Our server was a bit disheveled and frazzled as well. Overall great dining experience and we will be back read more

My review of Bridgets is simple. The food is ALWAYS amazing. ALWAYS. The food is to DIE for. No matter what you get. Steak, seafood, apps.... DELICIOUS. The prices? They are high. is it worth it for what you get? Ehhhh..... Again the food is ALWAYS fantastic. My 4 stars is bc of price and the noise - try Bridgets on a saturday night and you cant hear the people at your own table. Try them on a Wednesday and it is delightful. Your choice.... But i will say it again - there is no better food than Bridgets. Always a great meal! read more
