The food was absolutely delicious, the drinks had immaculate style, but they were weak. The snapper was very flakey and came perfectly paired with a white sauce and mash potato's. but the best thing I had was the steak with blue cheese crust. Our servers were super knowledgeable and made excellent recommendations. read more

We been here a few times for special occasions. They are very expensive but the food is definitely delicious. This time we tried the deviled eggs and man were they good especially the ones with the pimento cheese. We sampled other appetizers that our party received. The calamari is good though not as tender as I would like but the sauce is great with a little kick and its a nice portion. Same for the chop chop shrimp...good portion, spicy delicious sauce. The bread is now an appetizer and comes with butter with olive caponata. The bread just blew me away...so soft and great flavor. I ordered the new york strip with truffle butter in top and a side of loaded whipped potatoes (they were out of baked potato sad face). I ordered it medium and yes it was perfectly pink in the middle but not as tender as I would have liked it and it had a little too much fat on the ends and some gristle I couldn't eat. That truffle butter was just wow! Of course the potatoes were creamy pillows of softness with all the yummies added in. read more

For being a steakhouse the steak is nothing special. Stonewood, Ruth's Chris, Capital Grill and even Texas Roadhouse have better steaks. Nice inside for a date night. You will enjoy it enough if you aren't the one paying (date or company dinner), but definitely not worth what they charge you. read more

So happy we came!!! Great food, drinks and service. Perfect for a local date night. Everything we got was delicious

Service was slow to get drinks and place order. Order came out wrong. Food was good however.

Food and drinks were very good! I go to different steakhouses around Florida and this one is just as good as the best ones. I had the ribeye and was very pleased. I wasn't as high with the potatoes selection. My suggestion would be to have a truffles fries selection. The steak was perfect and the potatoes weren't terrible. Just regular potatoes. Service was very good. I will be going back. read more

Wife and I are still new to Jax and wanting to try new restaurants and someone recommended CH13. It's very lovely inside with a throwback feeling. I ordered a Yellowstone 7 year on the rocks and it was smooth, taste was pure, and only thing missing was a stogy. Steaks were cooked perfectly to our request. Calamari was slightly over cooked but nonetheless it was still delicious. Our waiter was very quick and knew everything on the menu while making only a couple of suggestions over any special items. Prices were very reasonable on all of their items including their large T Bone Steak. Overall, very happy and will continue to dine here often. read more

Great renovation of the former Tree Steakhouse. Updated and modern finishes in the same familiar setting, the Chophouse is an now an upscale steakhouse. Most menu items are ala carte and the steaks are a little pricey, but they were very well prepared. We ordered the 6 ounce filet and for sides we ordered a baked potato and the Brussel sprouts. The brussel sprouts were cooked with bacon and tasted great. Service was phenomenal with great attention to detail. Our server was very knowledgeable about the specials and was very friendly and accommodating. The Chophouse is a great choice for a special night out and I like the fact that it is locally owned. read more

This place is one of the best steakhouses in Jax, if you want a perfectly cooked steak then you're reading the right review. My wife and I both loved our experience at ChopHouse Thirteen and we will definitely be eating here again. The staff were all very friendly and the service was fast, not what I expected at a steakhouse to be honest. Normally, you'd expect to wait a bit for a quality cooked steak but ours came out much quicker than anticipated. If you're in the Mandarin area and looking for a top notch steak, stop reading this and head to ChopHouse Thirteen. read more

The St Johns area in Jacksonville doesn't have too many local spots, but ChopHouse is by far a hidden gem off of the busy San Jose Blvd. Formerly Tree Steakhouse, Chophouse had a makeover and a classy facelift. I was worried because Tree Steakhouse had a cozy, English pub feel, but they did a great job with the renovation--it still feels cozy, but it now has an elevated feel. I've only ever been for happy hour at the bar, but it is a great spot for ambiance at a good price. They have $4 house wines and beers during happy hour as well as some yummy discounted appetizers. We order the Blue Cheese chips that come with a balsamic reduction drizzle-so yummy! If you are looking for a nice dinner or a great spot to get drinks with friends, ChopHouse is a great choice! Ample parking as well since it is in a shared plaza. read more

Came for dinner tonight around 6:45 with no reservation. I was very happy when they said they could seat us right away. It was my son's birthday and we didn't get to eat at the restaurant he had originally chosen so when he said he wanted a steak we said let's try and hope for the best. We ordered the mussels and deviled eggs to start. I'm not a fan of deviled eggs (or any eggs for that matter) but I did try one and I've got to say it was really good! The yolk part had a really nice almost spicy brown mustard flavor to it. It was different, but really good. The mussels were delicious. I could have made a meal out of a loaf of bread and the delicious white wine lemon butter sauce they were in. We ordered a filet for my son, I got the broiled shrimp and my husband got the Chophouse trio (filet, shrimp and scallops) For sides we ordered French fries, whipped potatoes and lobster Mac and cheese. Our waitress wasn't the most attentive. We had to ask 3 times for a basket of bread and we went without drinks for awhile because she just never came back to check on us: We try to be patient because we know places are understaffed, but it was annoying. And the restaurant was more than half empty. But she was very polite and professional. My son's filet was cooked to perfection and he ate the entire thing! My shrimp were a little blah, but I added some cocktail sauce and they were fine. My husband said his shrimp and scallops were to die for. He said they were the best scallops he'd ever had. He didn't care for his filet. Said it just didn't taste right. It wasn't bad, it just tasted weird. The whipped potatoes were delicious and the lobster Mac and cheese was so good, although they really shouldn't call it "lobster Mac and cheese" because we only had 1small piece of lobster in the middle. We laughed about the lobster Mac and cheese not having any lobster except for that one baby piece. All in all it was a good dinner! We will definitely come back! read more

Our experience was absolutely horrific; Started out with service being very slow, not very much attentiveness, and the bartender was frustrated because we wanted to slow walk our order. We ordered several appetizers, 2 of which came out, and we attempted to speak to the bartender 2 times trying to get our escargot, he evidently took offense due to the fact that we had tried to go talk to him about the delay.. We have been sitting there for 1 hour and 30 minutes in the bar. The bartender was very standoffish. Melanie the "Assistant Manager" was absolutely rude and disrespectful to our table and everyone in our party. Came to the table, asked us to leave, and will not be serving our party tonight (of 6 people), we continued to ask why we would not be served, and she wanted to be very assertive and explain to us it is none of our concern to why they were kicking us out, other than "past experiences". This was my first experience, in over 2 years. We wanted to ask her why we had been asked to leave and she couldn't provide us a reason to why we should leave. She also threatened to call the police on us if we did not get up and leave right now, we all cordially had attempted to rectify the situation, she didn't want to have it. We believe that we were profiled, and discriminated against, and mistaken for different people, unsure of what was going on in the pow wow of the kitchen. We believe because we did not want to order in the manner of what the server / bartender wanted us to do. My family dines there on a regular occasion, and she has never been seen before. read more

Awesome food, steak (filet) was one of the best I've ever had. Service matched the meal. Clean well kept and inviting.

Christmas Eve was our first time dining here. We will definitely put it on our short list of places to go. Food and drinks were awesome and our server, David, was outstanding. We can't wait to come again and we will definitely want David. He was very attentive, knew the menu well, and very professional. What more can you ask for. read more

The quality that used to be here when it was The Tree is long gone. Broiling a steak is almost a science. If you know the oven temp, the cut, and thickness, then it's broiled at so many minutes per side to get the finish you want. So when I order a medium well steak, I don't expect it to come out on the plate bloody and red inside. I also expect it to be a HOT steak, not just warm. When I send it back to be properly cooked, I don't expect it to be returned still red inside, char-broiled outside, and remaining bloody. That's simply inept chefs and poor training and management. And that's why I refuse to pay for food that is not what I ordered, especially at an expensive restaurant. You can apologize all you want, but you ruined a dining experience with others and time and the experience is irreplaceable...just like this restaurant's reputation. read more

ChopHouse Thirteen - NOT medium well done...even after being sent back to the kitchen. - Bars Near Me - Jacksonville, Florida

I have had Chophouse Thirteen bookmarked for awhile. I decided to take my husband for his 35th birthday. Our server was friendly but took a long time to take our order. He had a small section so I couldn't understand why it took so long to take our order. After finally receiving our food, the food was extremely mediocre for the price. I am well traveled and have been to steak houses all over. I didn't complain about the food because I figured I would take it home and fix it up. The server brought the check and lost my card. The server was apologetic but the manager continuously advised that the server couldn't have gone far. Our check was over $200 which was fine, but losing my card is unacceptable. The manager never apologized and to make matters worse, we got food poisoning. We will never visit again. read more

Writing as an average restaurant enjoyer, this was one of our few goes at upscale dining. Service was great! Just wasn't impressed with much of the food. We started with the pork belly, which was honestly the best part. We had a Ribeye and the filet, which wasn't really on par with our benchmark of Longhorns. Brussel sprouts were crisp! Lobster Mac was also good. If you're mainly looking for awesome service, it might be worth it for you! read more

The ambience is great. This is a great place to take your sweetheart for a date. Or just hanging out on the rooftop.

Five star food and service. Ambiance was impeccable. Made for a very special special occasion.

Elizabeth was awesome! She was knowledgeable about the menu and what pairs well with the steaks. She was very attentive and glasses never empty! She is definitely a keeper! Food was amazing and drinks were even better. The risotto was 10/10 ribeye 7/10 just because it was a little over cooked, I asked for medium rare and got medium. But overall atmosphere was nice, great service and good food read more

Food and service were outstanding!!! Well worth the price. Will definitely go back. Very attentive and ambience was relaxing..

great food, great service, good atmosphere. Best Bread pudding I've had in a long time.

We had a party of three going here on a Saturday night. It was very busy at 7 pm and we were seated immediately. Ordered the Ahi Tuma for appetizer and it was very good. I ordered the 14oz. Ribeye with green peppercorn au-poivre. They killed it with too much of the peppercorn. My wife ordered the 6oz filet and it was not cooked to her perfection...too rare. My son's 14oz ribeye was perfect. No bread was offered or served. And a bottle of wine was consumed. Overall, we won't be going back. It's better to go to Ted's Montana on Blanding, or Cowford's Chophouse on East Bay Street in Jacksonville read more

Pricey but good. Must call for reservations as they are not open everyday. Suggest Whits next door for dessert read more

Very nice service and atmosphere although can be a bit noisy. The staff was very attentive. The ribeye steak was very tender and tasty. I recommend it highly. The onion o rings were just okay. The breading was a bit heavy for my taste. My wife ordered the grouper and it was fine but this is a steakhouse so that's were they shine! We were celebrating our 27th wedding anniversary and we're glad we came. It's a nice place for special occasions. read more

Amazing all around. The best spot to celebrate anything. Top notch service. Cute ambiance. Food is to die for!

For larger parties they have an auto gratuity which alot of restaurants have. The concerning practice is they add tax to the gratuity! This is technically legal under Fl law but not consumer friendly in my view. So after adding a 20%+ auto gratuity they apply a 7.5% tax on that gratuity. We were a party of 6 sitting in the bar, separate checks. After complaining about this practice they removed the tax. read more

This was a bit of a splurge night for our weekly dine out experience. It was totally worth it, but definitely expect a higher than normal bill at this place. The food was exquisite. We don't have lamb chops every day, but this place made a great argument for it. Prepare for a slightly elevated attire as well because we realized this was a nicer establishment than expected when we walked through the doors. Make room for this in your JAX plans! read more

We came here for our anniversary dinner. 2 adults, 2 kids. The atmosphere is quiet and had great lighting. Just enough to see the food and menu, but just dark enough to lend to a calm atmosphere. We made reservations on OpenTable earlier in the week. chophouse called 3 hours before to confirm our reservation, which I appreciated. We started off with appetizers, Escargot (delicious! Just the perfect amount of garlic & butter! I do wish it came with more crostini, but we had bread at the table. We also ordered the calamari for the kids. good, the marinara sauce was also good. I ordered CH13 Trio (filet, scallops & shrimp). The filet was cooked PERFECTLY. I haven't had a perfect filet in years. I had to savor every bite! The scallops were also cooked to perfection. Just the right amount of butter! We also ordered the Ribeye, the Salmon, and kids' chicken fingers. For dessert, I had the Bread Pudding. It put me over the edge. I usually don't order dessert, but we were celebrating, so I did. It was delicious. I ate it all! Haha We also ordered a Chocolate Torte, I was told it was also good. Parking was a little crazy there. But it was also a rainy/stormy night. They said the bathrooms were clean, I didn't have to go. read more

Last night, my fiance and I celebrated our 10 years together at Chophouse Thirteen. Our first time there and, boy, it did not disappoint!! Food, service, and the staff were fantastic! I had filet mignon for the very first time (I'm a ribeye person), and HOLY MOLY have I been missing out -- deeeeeeelicious, flavorful, and soooo tender. Thanks to Chophouse, filet mignon is my go-to steak from now on for fine dining! These are going to be some big shoes to fill! Oh ohh OOOHHH -- their deviled eggs - 3 flavors - PHENOMENAL!!! It was our first time eating caviar, and then to have it on deviled eggs was NEXT LEVEL! Thanks so much!!! We'll be back for sure read more

Usually this place is fantastic. From food to atmosphere, to service. I am not sure what happened tonight, but it went entirely off the rails! Booked reservation for my wife's birthday. Party of 8 of family and friends to celebrate. Easy $1000 bill. Tonight was a complete disaster. Horrible service, no drink refills, no wine glasses, no salads ever delivered. When food did arrive 1 hour and 31 minutes after we sat down, it was completely cold and sides were missing . I am not exaggerating. No apology from waiter. He had what appeared to be an attitude. Perhaps her was just embarrassed. His server assistant was named JJ.. was very sweet and very apologetic. She was awesome. We left without a meal. To the manager's credit he did not charge for the beverages. But , at 8:35 not many choices for us to find a meal elsewhere. We made best of it and ate at Taco Bell to celebrate the birthday. I suppose I should be grateful I saved some big money. But my wife was disappointed. Not exactly what she had in mind for her birthday meal. Look, we have had many good meals here. We come regular. Live a mile away. I am not sure what happened tonight but it was an absolute disaster and a huge disappointment. We may try it again, I'm not sure. Something went seriously wrong. If you have an important event to celebrate you may want consider looking elsewhere or at least proceed with caution. Hope they get it together! Update: GM reached out. Handled professionally and earnestly tried to make it right. I'll be going back. read more

I've lived in Mandarin for 30 years and really like to support our community restaurants. Chophouse has been hit or miss...but tonight was the last attempt. I have had to send my steaks back the last 3 times I've been... and tonight I cannot believe they even put the 10 ounce filet on the plate and served it. It was literally BLACK and looked liked a charred liver! It was burnt and medium well at best, when I ordered, medium rare. The steak knife would not even cut through the top, it was like plastic! The manager came out and apologized, and 20 mins later after my friend was nearly finished with her lamb chops (which were very good), he brought me a beautiful filet that was cooked perfectly and he was very apologetic. I did not complain, but the new filet was literally so salty I had to scrape the top and the bottom seasoning off before I could eat it and I am NOT salt sensitive at all! I love heavy seasoning. The mushrooms that I think we paid $13 for were so salty I could not eat them. My friend mixed them in with her baked potato and was able to eat them that way. I spent around $200 tonight and it was SO disappointing. The wine, salad and shrimp appetizer were great...but meal was absolutely terrible. I am not sure what's going on with the chef there but for the prices they need to make some change for consistency. I likely will not be going back for another try... and that is a shame because the location is convenient, the service is always great and the bar is awesome. Bummed in Mandarin $200 later.... read more

The dining experience could have been affected by the busy holiday season. The appetizer and soups took a long time to arrive and that was disappointing. Our server (Sandy) tried to keep things going. The food is prepared on the grill and they should advertise that as it is a different taste. If you like food from the grill you may enjoy your meal more. I think the lamb chops could have been seasoned more. Nick (the manager) came over and listened to our concerns. He explained the restaurant concept and addressed our issues with great customer service skills and tools. For a neighborhood steakhouse I will try again as I know Nick will continue to work to improve the dining experiences of their customers. read more

This isn't where you'll want to come to see new, innovative takes on dining, but it's a solid spot for a classic steakhouse experience of decades gone by, and a good option for satisfying traditionalists looking for a special night out. We started out a round of impressive and surprisingly creative cocktails, strong but balanced in flavor - major kudos to the bar here. For an appetizer, we went with the meat and cheese board. The board was generous and delicious, but unfortunately it was dropped at our table without and explanation of what the board featured. Next came salads - a simple but fresh house salad, and the one true disappointment of the night: the chophouse salad. This came out a bland mix of wilty iceberg lettuce, almost no hearts of Palm or sunflower seeds promised on the menu, and an oddly sour dressing. It baffles me, honestly, that such a clear miss is even on the menu. Sending it back, thankfully, was handled well. Our entrées featured ribeye and NY strip -- excellent cuts cooked to the ordered temperature. The mushroom au poivre was well balanced. For sides, the risotto, au gratin, and Brussels sprouts all impressed, with the latter being perfectly crispy. Unfortunately, we had a whole extra order of sprouts that didn't make it into our boxed-up leftovers -- a real disappointment to uncover the next day. Our server was lovely, and overall, the service staff was very friendly but more informal (and at times, a bit out of sync) than folks who frequent fine dining will expect. That's not a dealbreaker for me, but I suspect it would be a bit jarring for others. Overall, I'd return here when looking for a restaurant to satisfy folks with higher expectations but not looking to leave their culinary safe zone. read more

ChopHouse Thirteen is the perfect place for a Valentines date night! The moment you walk in it feels like a step up from the usual dinner locals (or at least a step up from my norm). Right when you walk and you were greeted with a smile from the host stand and immediately we were asked how her day was so far instead of the normal what's your name do you have a reservation. The restaurant didn't seem to have any Valentine's Day specific decorations but the ambience was still great for Valentine's Day date. Almost as soon as we sat down we had our water glasses filled and bread on our table then our waitress, Faith, came over and took our drink order. Faith was very Nice and patient as I was not 100% sure what I wanted right away. After some deliberation and some suggestions I decided on the pomegranate drink because it would be the perfect color for the evening! For my entrée I ordered the trio which was an amazing bang for your buck. My fillet was cooked perfectly and there was plenty of shrimp and scallops for me to also give my husband a few. I am not sure what seasoning they used on the outside of the fillet but it was fantastic it gave the meat such great flavor that there was really no need for it to be topped with anything and I was trying to avoid any additional calories. When I had my first scallop I will admit I did think it was cooked a little too long but then my second and third scallop were cooked perfectly. My shrimp were perfectly flavored and really added a nice touch to my meal. My husband and I also split, I'm using the term split loosely as he ate the bulk of it, the lobster mac & cheese. There weren't as many lobster chunks as there have been in the past however the flavor is amazing and I still wouldn't get anything else as this is easily my favorite side. All in all Chophouse Thirteen gave us a great Valentine's Day experience and we will be heading back for our next special occasion! read more
