Me and my wife had our wedding dinner here a couple of months back. We had our menu specifically designed for our dinner, open bar and rented the whole back room for the night. Open bar was amazing, drinks were on point and we received everything we asked for. The food was average, nothing to boast about, except maybe for the salmon. Many of our guests ordered the salmon and said it was delicious. Few negative things, which concurs with the three star-rating. 1. Bad vibe with the waiters that night; felt rushed to get our orders in and sit down, felt the whole party was being rushed, can sense frustration with every waiter that walked into the party until the end of the night when they received their tip* 2. We were suppose to have ice cream served with our cake; ice cream never showed up, when we asked about it, the waiter said he'll look into it, never did. 3. My wife was sitting down @ our table and she looked down to her dress and there was a waterbug (cockroach) climbing on the bottom of her dress. Let's just say, her mood changed for the rest of the night... I probably wouldn't host another party here, nor go back on a consistent basis to dine-in. Prices felt high, but not too bad. For the size of our party, open bar and the room, cost a little close to $3,000.00. read more

Nice Brooklyn steakhouse! Came here for my man's birthday and we ordered the octopus and calamari to start with a glass of Pinot Noir and Cabernet and, the Porterhouse for 2 as our entree. The food was great and the servers were really nice but the only downside was the wait - we waited a very long time for our order to be taken and even longer for our steak to come out. Our server noticed and covered our wines to make up for it which was really nice! But we were super hungry since we had waited a while to be seated to the point we had scarfed down all the bread waiting for our order to be taken. We also had to wait quite a while for our steak to come out after the apps, I would estimate 30+ minutes (we were seated at 9 and didn't get our steak til 10:30) - granted, it was a super busy night. I do like this place though and the food is really good. I would probably come back but would be wary of my timing for getting a table and service speed. They don't do reservations for parties less than 5 people - and when you put down for a table you can't step away from the bar since they don't take phone numbers. Hopefully my next visit will be better, this does seem like a great date night spot - fancy without breaking the bank. read more

I had the pork chop Berkshire. I never order pork chops. It was excellent. Clams for the appetizer was also very good. A great restaurant. The valet kid I had was a odd ball otherwise I highly recommend. read more

The best way to farewell Brooklyn, in our last night in town we pampered ourself having dinner in this great restaurant. We ask for soup of the day, cesar salad and two t bones. It was fantastic, the steak cook to perfection, a crisp charcoal coat served with homemade fried potatoes under a caramelized onions an fine cut red bell pepper. Our waiter was a very gentle and resourcefull one, making the best recommendations. Thanks for giving us the best memiries of our last nigh in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn. read more

My girlfriend took me here for my Birthday, let's just say I was supremely impressed. First everyone to a man was pleasant and welcoming. Joe the host knew who I was the second I said my name and welcomed us with a Brooklyn warmth that makes you feel like you're one of the regulars from the Neighborhood. Then our waiter Randy was extremely polite and accommodating. We ordered our food I had a ribeye and my girlfriend had the pork. I've paid twice as much for a steak that wasn't even half as good as what Chadwick's has offered. And the pork was tender and flavorful, in addition our apps were delicious as well ( the Mussels and the Octopus). I would say that although I'm a Brooklyn guy I've managed to miss this gem for many years, but not a mistake I'll make in the future. 5 stars period. read more

Best restaurant in Brooklyn probably nyc great food and great environment and get the pork chop with the cherry pepper sauce

Dinner for 4 on a Sunday night. Crab cake appetizer was half cold, obviously reheated, and not well. Calamari and zucchini appy was standard, but good. You can't ruin a spinach salad. I had the 1/2 paperdelle w/braised ragu and the sauce had way too much wine vinegar, way too heavy for the pasta. Crusted salmon overcooked and dry. Pork Osso Bucco, again, was overcooked, tasted burnt, and the sauce was bitter with a burnt taste. Maybe their steaks are better, but I can make that at home. Not going back. read more

When I first went to Chadwicks for my birthday. I thought it was going to be pricey because everything looks fancy and beautiful. Prices was very reasonable compared to other steak restaurants I've been to. Me and my boyfriend order porterhouse steak for 2 and let me tell you OMG it was delicious!!!! Their steak definitely became my top 3 of restaurant to go to. The straks were cooked perfectly and came with two sides which a lot of steak places don't really do. It was just amazing. read more

Chadwick's - Steak for two with sides - American Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

The menu is from the 80s. It's not nostalgic, it's old and boring. Food was average. Service was good.

The service was great. The waiter Joe explained the menu and the special dishes patiently. The food was delicious. We all love it. Two thumbs up! The children wanted to go back again for more steak next time. The deserts were fantastic, the Peach Melba is the bomb! The environment was fantastic. The gentleman who walked us in was very polite. I forgot to ask for his name! I will definitely to go back again and highly recommend it! read more

Had a good not great experience tonight. The ribeye special was really not good. The fat on this steak was really terrible. Filet Mignon we had was good but that's a given. What's with the driest most tasteless mashed potatoes I've ever had why put them on the plate & that weird bacon jam if the meat is good no sauce should be needed. Salad and fried calamari appetizers were really good. Peach melba was sick and that's in a good way. Service was good. I might go back hope they find some cream and butter to put in their potatoes. read more

I had my bridal shower here last Sunday and it was the best time! Brian is amazing to work with. The services was amazing!! I felt like I was home. They were amazing. My family and friends loved the salmon, service and experience. I'm very pleased with Chadwick's and can't wait to go back. Thank you! read more

Chadwick's - American Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I started going to Chadwick's a few years back, after looking for a steakhouse in Brooklyn, and one I could get a reservation. It definitely is a favorite of the local residents, waiters talk with regulars at the bar and tables like old friends. The interior decor can't compete with Keen's in the city, but then again the casual, homey feeling at Chadwick's is mostly absent at Keen's. Steaks can't be beat here! Black & blue is what you get, the kind of char that invites you to take the bones home, so you can naw on them in the privacy of your home! I always love a wedge salad and Chadwick's has a good one, and hands down their fried calamari is the best around. We always get both and something else to start with. For steaks, I like the porterhouse for 2, which my daughter I got and my son always gets the T-bone. The waitstaff is top notch! White glove service. read more

I love me a good filet mignon, but if that's what you're looking for, DO NOT GO HERE! The most chewy, bland piece of filet I've ever had. LET ME INTRODUCE YOU TO MY FRIENDS, SALT AND PEPPER!!!!! I literally chewed it and couldn't swallow so my napkin was full of chewed up expensive filet. The Octopus was rubbery, the chicken wings tasted like fish?????? The worse $200 I ever spent in my life. If you want a good Filet, go to Outbacks in Bayridge, it is flavorful and perfectly cooked every time. The only good thing about this place was our server, Patrick. He was so polite, attentive and good spirited. That's the only reason I didn't do a dine and dash, I wanted to leave him a good tip, thank you Patrick, you should go work at Outbacks and leave this shithole! read more

Great food, great service and just pleasant experience overall! Been coming here for 5+ years and their porterhouse for 2 never disappoints nor has their calamari! read more

This is an excellent spot for steak in Bay-ridge. I've been coming here for many years, and the food is always fantastic. The service is also very attentive and on point. I came here last night. For an appetizer, I had the Chadwick's Crab Cakes with Wasabi Aioli, Sweet Thai Chili Mango Slaw, and Micro Greens, delicious. The entrée was perfect FILET MIGNON w/BLEU CHEESE Whipped Potatoes, Green Beans, Ale Battered Onion Ring, and Bacon Jam were cooked to what I asked. Everything on this plate was exquisite, and each component complimented the other meticulously. Especially the bacon jam was excellent. read more

Probably my favorite restaurant in Brooklyn. Never had a bad experience here--from the amazing, quality T-Bones to the friendly and attentive waitstaff. Quality is also very consistent. I love bringing family and friends from out of town here because the service and food is just that good. I am always confident we are doing to have a great experience. Going there tonight with my husband for a much needed date night and can't wait! read more

We were not impressed with the food. Drinks were good though. I ordered one of the specials- I think it was bass. The fish was so thick. Not seasoned well, and there was this brown ball of food on the plate that was not good my date got the shrimp scampi and we both liked it. But we won't be going back. read more

It's true that I currently reside in Brooklyn's equivalent to Siberia. It's also true that many of my reviews of restaurants and bars draw parallels to past relationships and women in general. So as the chronicles continue, I decided I couldn't buck the trend. So do you remember when you were in high school? Do you remember when you scrambled to find a hot date that was guaranteed to put out on Prom Night? After weeks of this mating ritual (and countless cock-blocks from your friends) you settled on the perfect combination of elegance, intelligence, attractiveness, with just a pinch of sluttiness. That's what Chadwick's was. She was that girl. She dressed up well, she appeared refined and sophisticated, and her service was spectacular. We danced all night together and flirted via her Caesar salad and chicken in a sweet rue, with spinach and garlic mashed potatoes. She was fine throughout the evening and then we get to the after party where I'm banking on her to avoid false advertising, and really focus in on her sluttiness. She has a few drinks and goes off with another of my friends. The sting of that crappy feeling is what I ultimately felt eating here. It's a decent place, and you can come to expect the quality (which is edible) and good service. It's fairly pricey, especially for Siberia. It just left me wanting more. I wanted to be hooking up with the slut, not my friends. It's like the feeling of being cheated, like I had paid for the ticket, this sorry monkey suit, her flippin $30 corsage, and my friend reaps the benefits. What a disappointment. read more

Walked in and were greeted by a lovely staff... Sat down and server came right over. Bread and some house made pepper cream jam (it seemed like), yum. Ordered a Guinness- very fresh. Drinks came right away. Calamari w/zucchini as an app- super tender calamari and exotic crispy, thinly sliced fried zucchini on top. Great app. Very unique and the sauces were so fresh and tasted like homemade marinara. They gave us more when we asked- such great staff and owner. I order filet mignon- cooked perfectly. Asked for jam and blue cheese dressing on side, glad I did because the filet was so tasty didn't even need the extra sauces. Soooooo good and cooked perfectly!!! I asked for med-well to well I like cooked well meat but still tender and they managed to cook it perfectly. I'm impressed. Doesn't happen easily. Husband ordered t bone which he said was cooked perfect for him, too. As for sides- incredible, crispy, yet smooth on the inside home fries. Wow. Also spinach tossed with Vidalia onions. They weren't stingy with the sides either. Such a great place. Too full for dessert. 5 stars- if I could give more I would. The owner is doing a great job! Keep it up. Great staff, server was on point and so were the bus boys, great food, great quality, clean, friendly. We will hands down be back soon. The only little annoyance is that they don't take reservations unless it's 5 or more. I would've like to come a little later if they took a reservation. Oh well can't be perfect but this place is pretty close to it!!!! read more

CONGRATULATIONS Chef Quinn on winning Chopped! The food at Chadwick's is well prepared. It has the perfect balance of flavors without confusing the palate. Their desserts are carefully made and delectable. The atmosphere is great for social gatherings or that special meal with your significant other. The food is served in a timely manner by a courteous and professional staff. read more

Way over rated in my opinion . I had one of the specials for a Wednesday night a veal chop . The chop was huge but lacked taste and the veggies that came with it were soggy and tasteless . No potato or starch either all for $38 bucks are you kidding . The drink I ordered was good when I first ordered but after that nothing special during this dining event . I was very surprised at this meal I have frequently here several times for decent dining ordering the porterhouse steak for two with my date . Stick to steak only .. read more

I don't understand how this restaurant got 4 stars. After reading all the glowing reviews I decided to try this place. We arrived on a Sunday with a party of eight and there was no hostess up front. We stood there for a good 5 minutes until a waiter noticed the large party standing there by the entrance. The decor was very dated but that is irrelevant if the food is good. We ordered the clams, scallops and the calamari to start. The clams was 14 dollars for 10 clams. It was the most ridiculous app I have ever seen for that price. The scallops were 16 for three scallops. For that price I expected a bit more sustenance. The calamari was pretty decent so at least that was okay. Onto the entrees now. Two members of the party ordered T-bone steaks and they were charred into oblivion. All you could taste was the disgusting black crust. If you enjoy mediocre steak cooked poorly then this is the place for you. I personally had the duck that was beyond overcooked. It was the driest piece of duck I've had in a long time. It was also a thigh and a wing piece and not a breast. I assumed it would've been a duck breast since that is what is usually served in an American restaurant, but not here! I can live with that since the menu didn't specify if it wasn't cooked so poorly. Overall I don't know if this place is full of fake reviews or people that are friends of the restaurant. This place no where deserves four stars. This is a 2.5 star place at most with the food that they serve. read more

I love this place. Customer service is on point & they really make you feel at home. Thier food is great. Try their stakes, you will not be dissapointed. I highly recommend read more

This place is a tried-and-true gem. I've never had a bad meal. Actually, I did have a bad meal there. One time I had the orrrechiete with broccoli rabe and sausage. It was totally undercooked. However, they took it back and gave me a new dish that was cooked to perfection. They made up for their mistake and I'll definitely go back. read more

A genuine delight! The T-bone steak is mouth wateringly excellent. The home fries are crispy and perfectly seasoned, with onions and peppers. Everything about this place is top notch, from the napkins to the wait staff. It made for the perfect date night for my fiance and I. It is suitable for someone with a gluten allergy, if you notify your waiter when ordering of course. It was a bit difficult to suffer through the smell of the complementary bread... My fiance says it is the best hes had in a long time. I believe him, from how amazing it smelled. I had lots of leftovers. I felt that the prices were very reasonable for the excellent quality of the food. Highly recommended!!! read more

Really enjoyed tonight. Great steak, great service. Both me and husb ordered ourselves T bone steaks. They were yuuuge. Perfectly well done and delicious. The place got extremely packed and super loud but it didn't deter us from having a good time. We'll definitely be back in the future. We originally meant to go to Ho Brah Taco two streets down but it was extremely packed and I really didn't feel like squeezing myself into a can of sardines only to sit by the bar and eat tacos. If I wanted to just go to some hole in the wall or get some regular food I'd just stay in the neighborhood and not go out of my way to Bay Ridge. So I figured we'd be better off with some nice place to sit down and eat properly. And we love ourselves some steak. Luckily, I looked up on Yelp that Chadwicks was only two blocks away. And so I am so glad we made that choice. We actually been meaning to go to a steakhouse. Thank you, we really had a great experience here. read more

I'll admit that my girlfriend and I chose to eat here because of the name. Chadwick's--It's hard to say what it implies exacly. It's butler-y; sortof like "Jeeves'" or "Winston's". It's comical. We passed up on it a few times before we finally popped in for a monthiversarry dinner celebration. We treated the dining experience with a fitting sense of mock-elegance. Except for the kid with the large party over in the corner playing his game boy, the place just felt fancy and we did our best to keep up. The service was exceptional. I had the pork chops. They were heavenly. We drank water. I think the check was around $60. I guess I could not have asked for much more from Chadwick's, but something about me didn't feel right. It was just too much. I guess I'm just not the kind of guy who feels comfortable with a butler. read more

*review is for bar only* Wonderfully welcoming watering hole in Bay Ridge, about 10 minutes from the subway. We stopped by on an unseasonably sweltering day, mainly to get out of the 5pm heat. The bartenders were friendly and efficient, sliding us some ice water right away and fast on the adult beverages. Old school, neighborhood crowd. Really an oasis. We went elsewhere for dinner, as we'd originally planned, but I'd come back to try a steak. Thanks, gentlemen. read more

Had a good experience here. Food was excellent. Loved the presentation. I love the ambience of this place... feels like I'm at home. Our waiter Brian was awesome! He's been here over 20 years. He's very pleasant! Service is on point. Highly recommend it. read more

Had dinner here last night for Valentine's Day dinner and from the moment we walked in, the staff was very welcoming. We sat at the bar for a quick drink before dinner, the bartender was very nice and made a great whiskey sour. The food was incredible, I mean beyond. We had pulled pork raviolis...what?? And duck that was freaking amazing! Steak with candid bacon and the lava cake was good. The wait staff was very attentive and had great suggestions on wine pairings. My husband I will definitely be back again. read more

I have been here many times throughout the years and have never been disappointed. Tonight I had dinner at Chadwicks with some relatives and had a spectacular meal. The meal begins with fresh bread on the table, served with a choice of butter, a red pepper dip, or herb infused olive oil. The oil and the pepper dip are amazing but the bread was just OK. Nothing too special, which is surprising because there are some wonderful bakeries in the neighborhood that specialize in awesome bread. Next, we had salad, which made my taste buds sing...spinach drizzled with a raspberry vinaigrette dressing, some kind of delicious granola-like crunch, goat cheese and warm onion rings. I would have never thought to put all of those things together but apparently the head chef (who won on the show Chopped) is a culinary genius. Next, I had the pork chop which came smothered in a hot pepper sauce that was the perfect mix of spicy, sweet, and savory. It came with sautéed spinach that was cooked perfectly and potato wedges that were neither greasy nor dry. I could barely finish. My uncle had the T-bone steak which looked amazing. He asked for a vegetable that was not on the menu and they made it just for him. My aunt had salmon that she enjoyed very much. We were all stuffed, but we shared dessert...key lime pie, which honestly was just average. Service was fine...prompt, professional, friendly but not intrusive. Decor could use a little updating, but judging by the crowd that was in there with us (Sunday afternoon around 5), this place caters to an older crowd. I definitely recommend Chadwicks to anyone looking for a great meal in Bay Ridge who doesn't mind spending a little money. read more

Food was GOOD Portions were SMALL. All four of us made the same conclusion Atmosphere: Good for a date Price: PRICEY Service: Average BOTTOM LINE: I wouldn't mind paying the price if they gave me enough food. But to charge high prices and serve childrens portions is NOT MY IDEA OF A GOOD RESTAURANT. read more

Best lunch special, love the waiters here great service! I always enjoy coming here even by myself, very comfortable place! read more

Entering the Chadwick's dining room is both physically and emotionally like taking a trip to a Vermont country inn. The atmosphere is quiet, sophisticated (without being stuffy) and conducive to having a great culinary experience! Because we were there on a work night, we skipped drinks and went right to the breadbasket which was served with flavored olive oil and a roasted pepper dip! We then ordered the 16 oz boneless shell steak and the roasted duck in wild blueberry sauce (and we all know how wild blueberries can get!). Our sides included whipped sweet potatoes, sauteed spinach with caramelized onions and grilled asparagus. For dessert we split an amazing chocolate lovers tort with vanilla ice cream and whipped cream that was so rich and flavorful it actually was a challenge for us to finish it! We also had some of the best decaf coffee I have had in a long time. We thought the food was a 4.5... maybe not the best in NYC, but very, very good. Still I opted for 5 stars for Chadwick's in part because our waiter, Brian, made us feel very welcome and took the time to add a birthday candle to our dessert when he found out it was my girlfriend's birthday! Chadwick's is not inexpensive but it is also not outrageously priced for the quality of their food and service. Overall it is a great place to celebrate special occasions or to just have a wonderful meal! read more

I went to Chadwick's for a business proposal dinner and I must say I was very impressed with everything I had. I didn't have a mixed cocktail, just Pinot Grigio & water so I can't comment much on beverages but what I had was satisfactory. The pasta course was probably my second favorite, it was in a simple marinara sauce but it was oh so so tasty. Rigatoni noodles, just the right amount. Salad course was basic, Pre dressed salad, creamy vinaigrette dressing on a house salad, simple, good, I only had a few bites. What I was really saving up for was the pork chop, i don't know about you, but I luvvvvz my pork :) Ok so I had the pork with a house made apple sauce and the mashed potato wasn't regular mashed potato, it was a white sweet potato mash and it wasn't anything short of heavenly. The first bite was very powerful on the chop, I felt like I was hit with tons of salt but right after was balance. It must've been because it was on the edge laying in the great jous I haven't the slightest but I savored every bite. Now dessert... There was a choice between chocolate mousse and cheese cake. The only cheese cake I'm getting down on better come from juniors so I opted for the mousse and say whaaaat!!! Man listen, that mousse was killer it was so damn good it didn't make a bit of sense, no really I could t figure out how something so light so small could taste so perfect from beginning to end and to lock eyes with my brother across the table who took a bite of his and his eyes said the sane thing lol I knew there was true success back there with that pastry chef! I would go back again, since it was for a business meal we were given verbal choices on the main course and dessert, everyone was happy with their meals but I would love to pick something from their full menu. Since I was limited to a separate room sectioned off for us, I unfortunately can't speak much to decor and mood vibes in the main dining area read more

It's my go to place in Bay Ridge. Start at the Bar with Roy the bartender and have a delicious well made cocktail.

Don't shy away from the specials because they are truly special. read more
