Made reservations at 4:00 pm Sunday at Chop, Block & Brew located at Harrahs AkiChin Casino in Maricopa. We had also called to let them know a fifth person might be joining after dinner for drinks or coffee. The food was good, price is expensive and service was terrible. My bad though, it was a very special occasion and it felt like we were at a cafeteria. Seated next to the bathroom and the kitchen. We had gifts and couldn't fit them on the tiny table. I pulled a chair and picked up my purse off the floor. The hostess became upset and scolded. us publicly .The hostess told us "no" sighting company policy. Then the next thing we see, is her placing a table of five next to us and extra chairs?! Again good food, the server was polite. Not a good choice for a special occasion, should have worn flip flops and a tank top. read more

I took my bf to Chop for his birthday and it didn't disappoint. I ordered the filet and it was perfect in every way. I asked for medium rare and it was on point. Great flavor and juicy!! I haven't had a better steak. The Caesar sale was fresh and tasty. And the cheesecake was delicious! Huge portion. The server (Tambra) was excellent!!! Friendly and knowledgeable. She made out dinner extra enjoyable. The manager came to our table to ensure that we enjoyed our food. Inexpensive. Clean. And AMAZING steaks. read more

Not one to post about my frustrations with a business but tonight i am rather annoyed. We celebrated my husband's bday at chop block and brew. I proudly brought 3 dozen cupcakes in from sweet daddys cupcakery to celebrate. These cupcakes were on display throughout the dinner and multiple employees saw me bring them in. They are huge and you cant miss them. As we are wrapping up our dinner and well over a $1000 tab i start to get these cupcakes ready to hand to each person at the table. The manager then comes to me and tells me its against health code to have them in the restaurant and that we could buy a dessert from them but that we could not have the cupcakes. Wtf?!?! You waited until our dinner was done? Literally every restaurant in the history of my adult life has been more then willing to allow this and even offered to hold them until the dinner wraps up. Not to mention google is a wonderful tool and his health code statement was easily debunked. Over $100 in cupcakes that we had to box up and take home. Glad i didnt spend all week/day prepping this surprise bday dinner or anything. #chopblockandscrewyoudude read more

This restaurant never disappoints!!! The service is amazing and the food is exactly the same. Everything is fresh and made to order. I highly recommend this wonderful establishment! read more

I ordered a filet mignon medium rare. It came out more like a medium well sirloin. My husband enjoyed his steak. They did offer to make me a new one but I didn't want to wait. Didn't offer anything else to compensate for the steak. We were here for our anniversary and told them in the reservation, that also wasn't acknowledged. Not their fault but my husband made arrangements for flowers to be delivered and the host knew that and also knew the florist didn't deliver. Would have been nice to have them try and do something special. Oh well... won't be dining here again anytime soon. read more

WE had a birthday dinner this past Sunday. Food was EXCELLENT, service was great and personable. Cost was pricier than we like to spend, even for special a occasion, however, we used our reward points and just used cash for tip. We had a perfectly wonderful time!!!! read more

Great place to get a fine dinner and any sort of cocktail. Love the house salad and the prime rib at time is the best you can get. Service is great and they are very quick to rectify any issues. read more

My wife and I had dinner there on Friday 10/22/21. We were very excited to try their steaks "sous vide" style. Unfortunately the steaks were both cooked to just about medium level before they were then lightly seared on a pan. Note: we order our steaks medium rare. My wife ordered the sirloin and it looked like an 8 ounce piece, which was thin and tough and really medium well. If I were the chef of a a high-end chophouse I would be embarrassed to present that piece. The staff was very nice about preparing a new one promptly, which was just a bit better and looked decent in size. I had the New York strip which also was probably closer to medium, and l found it very chewy. I think when they cook "sous vide" by the time they sear it on a pan, it's already near medium done. Note: we also ordered them "Pittsburgh style" which is supposed to be "charred" outside, and again they were only lightly seared. I LOVE steak, but neither of us finished our steaks. Sliced up tomorrow, they'll make good sandwiches. What WAS very good was the calamari. That felt like you were right on the waterfront, with a fresh catch of the day. That was perfect. The creamed spinach was also extremely tasty. My baked potato, with the butter and all, was also fantastic. Denise, our waitress was very understanding. Sammy, the manager, had patient and sympathetic ears to listen to our disappointments. read more

Very impressed and glad to support local business. What I don't like is the seating table in the middle of the walkway. They tried to seat us there and we asked to be against the wall..all night everyone rejected that seating so at some point they'll get the point. Now for the food. Andrew was put server but we had a 6:30 reservations (recommended) got seated but waited 20 min before anyone came to the table. Ordered the prime rib fondue and it was wonderful as well as the clam chowder. Later had the chopblock burger no bun with the surf and turf topping of lump crab meat, delicious. Replaced the French fries with pickled carrots. Had a bottle of wine for a birthday celebration. All in all its worth the money just took forever to receive the food. read more

Let me start off by saying this is the casinos " nicer" restaurant.. so eating here is definitely a premium where steaks and entrees are averaging around $40 a plate.. with that said don't you think you should have some sort of a dress code?? Went there on a date night we will both dressed nice was seated next to a couple where the guy was wearing crappy shorts , Crocs , t-shirt and a baseball hat.. The food was good not great so was not priced accordingly as well as the drinks. Since I live in Maricopa I wanted to try here being the only restaurant in town. I have been and will in the future just drive to Chandler in the future read more

This is the perfect restaurant for a romantic date night. The food was delicious, the staff was super nice, and the restaurants ambience is beautiful. Make sure to make a reservation, there's not many restaurants in Maricopa, so it fills up quick :) read more

Finally came here to try it out...Nice Place, I'll be back and all but I'm knocking them down for the really bad lobster roll I had today. $20 for burnt bread and flavorless lobster with shell still on it. Horrible guys, I strongly suggest removing it from the menu if this is how you consistently send it out! Service was great and I like the environment, but I'll sure as hell never order that joke of a Lobster Roll again! I know it's in the early stages and it takes some trial and error to work out the kinks! Take it from someone who knows and get rid of the Lobster Roll or let me show you how to properly make one! read more

Came here last night. The steaks were outstanding and the service was out of this world. Wish the prices were slightly better but it is what it is. The ambience is quite and upscale though I do think the booths shoot be tables. Steaks were cooked perfectly and they do a great Pittsburgh steak, and not many places will cook a steak that way. Definitely will be back! read more

average steaks, nothing special. they now think they are a top level steak house, they are not! they recently went to a ala carte format. did not reduce price on entrees, but removed salads and sides from your dinner. that increases your cost by 30-40%. asked why, management said they want to be in line with other steak houses. ridiculous answer, but they do not care, only decent restaurant in town. read more

I was so looking forward to a fine steak dinner... however, I am still waiting... even with reservations the wait was at least 45 min after out reservation time, the food came an hour after seating... it took quite awhile to get our checks, it is unorganized, a snails pace slow... And quite expensive, 1 beer, 1 glass of wine, a shared an appetizer, and we each had a bowl of soup =$60! I know it's relatively new but I would wait to try again, if ever read more

We had a wonderful meal here. Everything was delicious, we had the New York strip. Cooked perfectly, delicious sides, outstanding salad. Service was exceptional too! Definitely would recommend this restaurant. read more

Reserved a table for Saturday the 25th of August. There is a casual bar/table service area near the front, nicer tables and a private dining room in the back, closest to the kitchen. A lot of the waitstaff formerly worked at The Range steakhouse, also located in the casino. Apparently not all. Our Server, Neill, supposedly worked at the Range but I don't recall ever seeing him there. My wife and I had been dining there for years. His pure ineptness was shocking. I asked about a "chilled red" that was on the (limited) wine list. After telling me it was a cab blend (I wasn't familiar with the winery) I requested a bottle. He brings a bottle of Rose desert wine! Cab Blend? when I send it back (before he could open it) and instead switch to Chardonnay. He returns with a warm bottle, and it is sitting in a warm bucket! I send him to put ice in the bucket. Sadly, he wasn't the only problem. Our appetizer of grilled shrimp cocktail consisted of five thoroughly over-cooked medium supermarket shrimp, some green leaves thrown on a plate and some supermarket cocktail sauce. I kid you not. $18.00. If the meal wasn't a promo I would have sent it back. Next comes some (after I asked) "house baked bread" that was nothing short of awful. Slathered and dripping with grease (not butter) it was served with a "honey butter" that was crunchy with sugar. The rolls themselves were totally unremarkable. The French onion soup broth was as watery as, well, water. Complete with a wafer of stale bread and some Gruyere cheese (the best part). French Onion soup needs to be allowed to reduce. Maybe they reduced it then threw water into it to stretch it out? It was useless. An insult to the French...and onions. My scallops, thankfully, were good. Plump and NOT overcooked like everything else coming out of the kitchen. her salmon was overcooked, the shovelfull of sweet potato home fries were an eyesore as a "plate filler" and nasty to boot. my asparagus tips were limp with tastelessness, I was thankful for the meal to end. We took nothing with us other than our profound disappointment. Bon Apatite. read more

First time in this restaurant. I've got to admit I'm disappointed in the food, service and even the decor. For the prices charged I expected better. I'd always bragged that the drive was a little longer but the food in the Range was always good. The Range is gone and it pains me to say so am I. read more

Went here for my dad's birthday. I got the 6 oz filet mignon, medium, and it was perfectly cooked. The meat cut with barely any pushing with the knife. It melted in the mouth and was buttery. I chose chili as my starter and it was a bit spicy, but also delicious. For my side I chose the Mac and cheese. It was creamy and properly seasoned with a bit of au gratin crumbs on top. I also added 3 scampi shrimp to my order. Buttery, tangy, delicious. We started with the Prime Rib Fondue and it was cheesy with a bit of spice. We could have used more crostinis to go with it. The server was great and the food was excellent. read more

Fantastic food, amazing service and attention to detail! Worth every penny! One of our favorite restaurants.

Had dinner at Chop, Block & Brew tonight. The service was excellent! Juanita did a great job taking care of us. The prices and food were also really great! We enjoyed shrimp cocktail to start followed by salads, clam chowder soup and French onion soup for our starters. We also enjoyed the prime rib, rib eye and king crab legs. We will definitely come back next time we're in town. Only reason why I gave 4 stars is the markup on the wine was a bit high. read more

I eat at Chop Block and Brew on a weekly basis. This steak house offers excellent service as well as excellent food. The hosts that seat you are extremely welcoming as well as the servers who take your order. The food has always been excellent and the atmosphere is great as well. I highly recommend dining at this Chop Block and Brew read more

This restaurant has incredible food, which is a nice change for Maricopa. Good craft beer selection. Our waitress was super friendly and attentive. I got the big one baked potatoes with pulled pork and it was incredible. We also tried the burgers too. Super amazing too!! Give it a try!! Side note, you can tell the restaurant is new and still working out the kinks. Our reservation was delayed about 30 minutes. We weren't in a hurry so didn't really mind, but be mindful of that if trying out in the early period! Overall great new addition to Maricopa dinner scene!! read more

Food is great. Delicious spinach dip to start. We all had something different. My strip steak was fabulous. Perfection. Great service can't wait to return ! read more

Excellent food, exceptional service. We will definitely be back. Just be sure to call ahead and make reservations.

I was looking forward to a nice meal in a great venue with good service. Unfortunately none of my expectations were met. Food was average at best for my salmon and my girlfriends Chicken Marsala was an oddly seasoned spaghetti chicken soup mess. Ambiance was nonexistent. Table placement was so weird since I was closer to the occupants of the table next to us than with my own table companion. We asked our server for another plate so my girlfriend could put the chicken-like substance on the other plate to attempt to saw through that piece of chicken-like substance. The plate showed up 3/4 of the way through dinner. Our mistake was not returning the entree, since to top all this off, my girlfriend suffered though the night with stomach issues. For the prices charged I felt like I had lost $$$ at the casino AND the restaurant. Buh-bye. read more

Have been coming here for years and honestly, ever since they re-opened (after covid) each experience has been trash. With the exception of a few menu items (prime rib fondue, appetizer meatball) the food is not the quality that it used to be. Definitely not work the price. More importantly, the service is TERRIBLE. Let's start with the older lady at the front desk...HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE SKILLS...so rude! And they seem to take forever to bring your food out now and half the time, something was wrong with our order. Will definitely not be dining here anymore. Rather drive over to Gila and dine at Shula's...equally expensive but at least the food and service is great! read more

We looked up to see if they would be open on New Year's Day and it said yes. We arrived and they are closed from 3-4 between lunch and dinner. We then think we will go get a drink and wait an hour. No seats or tables at the bar. The lounge is only for people higher than platinum and no where else to go inside the entire casino to find a seat and drink with my 85 year old mother or ear unless you want fast food without a drink. Of course everyone else wanted to gamble but we had to leave because my mother needed a seat and glass of wine. I've never been to a casino do in accommodating and especially on a day off for most. read more

Ate there for New Years Eve. Had one of the worst meals I have ever had there. The server was good. The food was luke warm. The only thing that was good was the lobster tail. I had about three bites of my steak. Don't know what was going on with the mashed potatoes or the brussel sprouts. It took 30 to 40 min. to get our food and Iv'e seen the place a lot busier . It was very over priced 200 hundred for the two of us. Its always hit or miss there. Next time we go back it may be great . The only thing consistent is the servers. I know your thinking why do you back? I use my Total Rewards points that I get for playing at the casino so the only cash exchanged is for a tip. read more

Had a reservation yesterday for 7 o'clock The restaurant is in the casino and I had received a hand pay so I was about 15 minutes late I waited for about five minutes till I was helped so it was around 7.20 the manager Sammy told me sorry as he looked at his watch we canceled your reservation at 7:18 and there's nothing we can do and he actually said this with great joy i visibly was mad and he goes well maybe I can take your name and number and I just walked away it's not the first time this guy has treated me like garbage I have ate at this restaurant 50 times and the food is great But this guy is a horrible manager and horrible to his staff he actually asked us to rat out an employee that gave us a salad in place of a regular Side he said I need to know who has done this in the past so I can straighten them out I looked at him like are you kidding why would I rat out a great employee one that was giving us five star service anyway this is the last guy I would want to run my restaurant read more

This place is so good! Great service and great food every time we've come. One time, with our daughter, the server made sure to bring her food before everyone else's because she kept saying how hungry she was and she brought us extra bread for her to hold her over before the food came. Thank you to the server that gets kids! read more

Delicious food!!! Had a great server who took very good care of us! Made a reservation so we were seated right on time!

I just feel like if you're gonna price your plates around $40-60/per plate, IN MARICOPA (yes I get it's in a casino) you should be serving REAL SUGAR. You can't afford sweet n low or equal? That ironic, because I sense you are trying to be a fine dining establishment. Grilled wings - please lay off the liquid smoke. Almost repulsive. Also grilled doesn't mean burnt and then covered up in sauce. Caesar salad - why should "corn brittle" ever be in a Caesar salad? I'm still stumped. Like peanut brittle but corn brittle. $24 burger bar? What? Probably won't be back even with our rewards. read more

This was recommended and definitely didn't disappoint. We had the prime rib fondue, the chop salad with grilled chicken, and my husband ordered the steak special for that evening. Everything was delicious. The service was wonderful. Our servers were prompt, attentive and knew the menu for recommendations. Making time for one last stop before our flight! read more

I've eaten here 3 times. Tonight, I'm dining with my uncle and EVERYTHING is exceptional and the presentation is outstanding! Well done. I had the scallops! One word, magnificent. Our waitress Gabriela is not only beautiful but she took good care of us. Thanks Gabriela! read more

This is our second time here service is the pits both time as I am doing review I have been waiting for the check and box for my food we didn't finish .we where done 20 minutes ago still waiting my husband had to go fine her and he did still waiting the French dip is also a little bland Reuben was salty which is odd for my husband to say he like salt. No refill on my ice tea or his water . Still waiting for my check and boxes . read more

Bad service lots of workers running around not accomplishing much. Waited 10 min for my drink order. 15 min for soup and salad. Big dissapointment. Need a good manager to turn this beautiful resturant around. read more

Due to traffic issues on the I-10 over this weekend, we changed our plans. We made a reservation at Chop, Block & Brew at the Harrahs Ak Chin Casino. We arrived and were seated within minutes. The service that we experienced was great! Both of us ordered the 6oz Filet . My wife ordered the Bearnaise sauce while I had the peppercorn crusted. Salads or soup was included. I had the Block Salad with Blue Cheese dressing while my wife had the Brew salad. Both arrived chilled. Also ordered wine & a beer. Total cost with tip was $100. Our Filets arrived as ordered, my wife's medium and mine well done. Our sides also arrived hot-temperature wise. We felt over dressed, next time maybe we'll dress down? It was funny that the people there did not match who was in their commercials. Our question: When we made the Reservation my wife was asked: Is this for a special occasion? Yes our 45th Wedding Anniversary. Why do they ask when nothing was done? Next time I might say I'm having dinner with a former POTUS at your Restaurant. read more

My wife and I came here after a movie to have dessert and a glass of wine. We ordered wine, and asked for the dessert menu. The waitress brought the wine but informed us that they don't serve just dessert. She then told us that if we just wanted drinks, the casino has other areas for that. It appears that ordering an entree is required. This was not a busy night and there was plenty of seating. We were not taking up space from people waiting to come eat dinner. read more

Jeez, I try to go to Chop Block on Fridays or Saturdays with a group of friends. Half the time the food is cold and marginal, half the time delicious. I dont mind paying for good food, but after going at least 10 times and never knowing what I'm going to get, I think I'll just drive to Wildhorse and eat at Shulas. What a shame we cant get a decent meal in Maricopa. Sign me, Just disappointed! read more
