Think Florida is for Seniors? Well, only if you mean in the superlative sense. So here I am, in Naples, in the SUMMER. Yep. I'm neither 80 nor Haitian.... In fact, hey, if it's gonna be 91, which it was in DC today, I would rather be at the Freaking beach and since I am over 23, you could not pay me enough to go to Dewey. Ditto Rehobeth. Look. You want a beach? Go to Florida. You want a deal? Go in the summer. Ok. That's another post. Back to Chop. Bottom line? I paid for two for dinner tonight what my Bottle of Outfreakingtastic wine would've cost in DC. Literally. They had this deal.... 2 course for 2 people for $39 and a bottle of wine half off. Plus my cocktail, served at 5:45 in a vat was only $5.50. My daughter's meal was only $9. Seriously, the whole meal came to $89.68, before tip. I had a 2005 bottle of Au Bon Climat cab!!!! Are you kidding me??????? Bruce, our server, gets two emphatic thumbs up for pointing out that the $39 deal, didn't actually require 2 people to order. Oh, and the shrimp/beef hand rolled spring rolls were sex on a plate. Grouper? Super. Margarita? Terribly Neat-a. I'm going to freaking lie about my age for the first time since I was 17.... And get my GD AARP card; Naples, FL... You rock. read more

Great grouper risotto, overpriced and black burnt steaks (tasted also like burned), uncosy interior with low acoustic absorbation (sounds like a chicken coop), smell and noice of open kitchen are most inconvenient, especially if you are seated in the back, also very hasty service. Just another typical American restaurant, which is efficiently runned by businessmen. Can't understand why this place is always so crowded. This could never be a success in Europe. The level of the food is far too low and the prices are astronomical... but this is Naples, FL... AND again very far from Naples, Italy!! read more

I've been wanting to try chops for a while now so I was glad I made time to sneak in for dinner at the bar. The wine list and happy hour deals for food/drinks is pretty extensive. In fact if I go back I will be sure to make it for happy hour. I got the chopped salad to start, then the rib eye with smashed cauliflower as a complement. The salad was good, nothing too amazing. The steak was cooked perfectly and had a great sear on the outside. It also didn't taste like they drowned it in butter when it was done cooking. This was certainly the best steak I have had in this area. With a great mix of good food, service and ambiance, I was pleasantly surprised with Chops. read more

This has been one of my favorite places to dine in Naples I been here more than 15 times the only reason I give this place 4 stars is because last time I was there and had fish it wasn't that tasty not fresh at all I am sure it wasn't fresh as always . I keep going back just because I do love the good here just this time wasn't good and the server did not offer to have something else and is not like cheap at all sometimes you just having so much fun and such a great company that you just ignore those little things . But this place is great if you eat steak my friends and I love Chops . read more

What happened? We've been talking up Chops for a year and couldn't wait to return. We noticed about a month ago that a remodel was in progress. Upon arrival, the interior definitely has been freshened up as well as the menu. Velvet couches, overly bright lightening, it was over the top. Food wise...You don't need to top sides with foams, weird garnishes, or have bacon flavored drinks. Nothing we had was great. It was just ok. This was a classic, beyond wonderful steakhouse on 5th a year ago. Now? It's just eh. We left unfulfilled and terribly disappointed. 2 stars simply for the waitstaff. She was on point all night and highly attentive! read more

This is the best restaurant on 5th Avenue in Napples, for certain. I recently had the Tuna Tataki, Ribeye with wild mushrooms on the side and fries and it was on-the-money. Previously, I'd had the pork chop (which was fine), but it was so expensive that I simply could not do that again. The service was decent, but the noise level in the place is a bit of a problem. The room is big and they pack the place in-season -- so be prepared that you'll most likely not have a quiet dining experience. Be sure to have a reservation, especially in-season or on the weekend. Also: avoid sitting at the bar along the kitchen area in the back: too loud, too hot and spotty service. read more

This is not my first time at this restaurant. Yet, it has become one of the priciest restaurants in downtown Naples. It is a really good steakhouse and serves quality steak like dry aged steak. This steakhouse has the best spinach infused olive oil... It is decadent and over the top. It truly compliments the hot bread served daily on the table. But, 5 years ago, the cost was not even close to being that high. Still, the experience of eating good quality meat and well prepared is close to none. I am a fan for a long time and I recommend that to anyone visiting the Naples area to at least try this place once. read more

Chops is a very warm and friendly place. That's key if you're dropping a lot of dineros (or if your boyfriend is dropping the dineros, as in my case ;). Chops deserves the accolades it's getting on Yelp. Most of my experiences over the past 5 years have been as a passenger at the bar. They have a respectable wine list and I've always been able to find a suitable libation to match my mood. Special recognition goes to Bob whose professionalism in tending to his customers at the bar should be the model and standard, not the exception. Ask for him; he knows his stuff. read more

Let me start by explaining my rating a bit - 5 for food, 1 for service, so nets to a 3 star. I really enjoyed the food, as did my rather large party (8 total). The steak was grilled to perfection, seasoned great. I had the sea bass, wonderfully done. The City Salad I had was great, as were other appetizers had by my fellow table mates. What I could not get over was the pushiness of the service staff. I say this because, every step of the way, we felt rushed...to order, the delivery of the food to the table (too quick!), and the move to clear the table. The appetizers appeared too quick, followed quickly by the entree. We barely had time to breath and the food was upon us. Plates were cleared while others were dining. It felt like the moment a fork went down, the plate was cleared. One of the diners at our table had a large steak, that they "took a break" on...and the server dashed in to remove the plate. We had to protest that he was not done yet! At one point, I told our server to back down a bit, but it did not work...I kept looking over my shoulder to see him hovering, looking for the opportunity to jump in. I really think this could be one of the best restaurants in Naples, yet the service is rather discouraging. It's great food at a fast food pace. I don't mind paying a premium price, but its a full package. I'd like to feel that I am enjoying my dining experience, not just eating food and dashing. I want to talk to my fellow diners, enjoy the ambiance, not just be part of a commercial enterprise trying to turn tables as fast as possible. I hope the service changes...for I truly believe Chops can be so much more than it is today. And it's and easy fix! read more

Visited a couple of weeks ago while on a getaway to Naples. I had been to this restaurant about 4 years ago and never forgot it, I wanted to introduce my hubby to it and I came back. Once again had a great dinner. The steak was cooked to perfection. I ordered a side of Cream Spinach and it was the best I've had, better than Capital Grill or Ruth Chris. My husband ordred the Porterhouse with a side of Mushrooms which was also very very good. Not sure the name of the dessert we had but it was a sampling of a creme brule, chocolate mouse which was also very good. If you want to have a nice dinner in a great atmosphere along 5th avenue I highly recommend this restaurant. read more

Chops might be the best place in town for a steak. I wouldn't come here for Seafood as there are plenty of outstanding five star seafood restaurants in town. Try Trulucks, Roys or if your looking for slightly more casual but still nice Tommy Bahamas. The wines at this restaurant need some improvement for me to justify a five star experience. I would give a 4.5 if I could. If you can't get into Chops due to it's extream popularity try the two listed below. They are both on the north side of Naples. Other recommended steakhouses in town, Flemings & Capital Grill read more

Nice atmosphere. Very good server. Food was good, but not outstanding. Very expensive for average quality. We would not go there again unless we absolutely had to...$190+ with only 3 glasses of house wine. We're not snobs, just not the pizazz. PS, we had the sea bass & ribs. read more

Chops City Grille was outstanding. My husband and I had just moved down from Washington DC and were expecting a lackluster food scene here in SW Florida. Chops City Grille let us know in no uncertain terms that we were completely wrong. The restaurant itself was impeccable. The staff was attentive and very polite but never intrusive. I ordered the blackened grouper, it was perfection. My husband ordered the steak and he loved every bite. We will be frequent patrons of Chops City Grille and we thank them for a lovely date night! read more

Chops City Grill - Blackened Grouper- delicious! - Steakhouses Near Me - Naples, Florida

To start out we were meeting new friends and they said there was an early bird special. Three courses for $18.95. Then the waiter says it's only the first half hour they are open you have to make the reservation thru the office "but hey I'll take care of you with happy hour specials". Half price on all kinds of items that none of us wanted and "jeez" that special just ended! Bait and switch. It's a Friday night on 5th street your not going to get into anywhere else so your stuck. I ordered the bone in ribeye done medium rare. I came to this conclusion after the sales pitch about how they are dry aged for 14-20 days yada yada yada top 10% of the beef produced in the US. The waiter also informed my wife the "Wild" salmon on the menu wasn't Wild!!! Farm Fish! I also also ordered oysters which were expensive for the sub par product. A place would be better off saying we don't have oysters because they don't meet our expectations. The food arrived and put it this way if the steak hadn't been cooked in a 1400 degree broiler you would still see the whip marks on it! It was cooked very well and had decent flavor but was tough, very tough. It wasn't a $60 steak. One of my dinner companions had ordered the NY Strip medium rare and he had the same complaint. The waiter came over and asked how it was and I said OK. He seemed to think I didn't know what I was talking about. I proceeded to try and cut the steak in front of him you know what he said? THE KNIFE WAS DULL! Are you kidding me!! Then the young manager came over gave some excuses and offered free deserts. That's it no mention of taking the steak off our bill. So I ate the rest of the steak and we all decided we would never come back. In conclusion very overrated and very expensive ($400.00 bill) for the csteak they are serving. There are just too many other restaurant choices in the area to dine at. Actually I'm giving Costco a bad rap I've had some excellent steaks from there in the past few months. Sorry Costco. read more

From out of town. Selected this restaurant based on previous reviews. We did have to wait about 15 minutes past our reservation time but it was worth it! We both ordered 16 oz dry aged ribeye. The steaks were cooked just right and the crust was amazing! Huge flavor! Both side dishes were exceptional as well. We will hit them up again next time in the area! read more

To be honest, we never had any intention of eating here. We checked into the hotel late and my date and I took a little too long, um... "getting ready for dinner", and the place we wanted to eat wasn't taking any more tables. Apparently 9:45 is way too late to eat in Naples. They let us know that Chops City Grill takes late diners. We should have started the night here. They were glad to seat us and our very friendly waiter handed us a list of their "Choptails". So, not wanting to offend, we had to try a couple. The Vitamin "T" margarita had enough alcohol in it to relieve any stress we were having. For the next two weeks. Exactly what we needed. We split a delicious Tuna Chop appetizer and a great Stacked Tomato Salad. Dinner was even better. My Asian Barbecue Glazed Pork Porterhouse was so good I wouldn't share with my date. Dessert was a trio of crme brulee, expertly done. read more

Best Fillet I've ever tried! Got the 5 oz. Australian waygu and it was amazing. Our waitress Amanda gave incredible service and made sure to be sensitive to our table's allergy concerns! Great venue and even better service and food overall!! read more

Delicious! We took the in-laws here when they visited us last week. My father in-law loves a good steak and many locals told us to try Chops. Excellent recommendation!, we all enjoyed some variation of the fillet. Our waiter was amazing, the place was packed and we were taken care of very well, prime time sat night. With reservations we were sat immediately. The only slight bummer was the tables are pretty tight, but we had a blast . All in all we tried the New England Clam Chowder ( Delicious),a good variety of salads, (creative and tasty, ) & try the Green Goddess dressing for sure, fillets with the Oscar sauce, Cabernet sauce, and lots of starch- Every bite was perfect. Only I didn't enjoy their version of scallop potatoes, but that was my issue with the cheesiness. We also split an excellent dessert - We were surprised the menus prices really were not all that bad, not for the quality of the food. My husband & I cannot wait to go back and try all of the appetizers....and more fillets.....and the seafood......and more soup..... One of my new favorite Naples places. read more

We love going to Chops! The Corn Brulee and the Carpaccio are my favorites. The fried calamari is tender, and the steaks are incredible, of course. Can't wait to go back! read more

I was excited to try this place after reading thru the happy reviews. We decided to have their filet mignon. Although unique in that it is placed on a fried slice of eggplant, we found it to be quite overdone. They replaced it for us and compensated us with a complimentary dessert. Flavoring was good but I wasn't impressed and wouldn't necessarily return. I really enjoyed my Eddie v's steak experience at Tampa instead. read more

Great atmosphere, food, and service. Chops was recommended to us by friends that visit Naples frequently. When my fiance and I visited for a long weekend, this is the first place we checked out. Everything from the appetizers to the wine is yummy here. I will definitely be back on my next trip to Naples. read more

Chops city Grill on 5th was just redesigned and looks cleaner, more modern and overall just more up to date. The menu still favors steaks but there plenty of seafood and other dishes to meet everyone's needs. I had the 14 oz New York strip which was.m excellent. With new menu no side is included but the strip was prepared perfectly. The side I chose was spinach and it was very good also for $10. Overall service was very good and wine by the glass could have some more selections. I also has a Caesar salad which was average. Prices were very high my strip was $55 which I thought was very high although again excellent overall steak quality. My rating was 4 stars overall very good but pricey. read more

A great steakhouse! Decor is plain jane and tables are PACKED in the place unless you get a booth. Glad we sat in a booth but you come for the steak which was outstanding! You get a "free" side with your steak or entree but "free" is relative seeing how you are paying for it. Comparable and/or better than the national expensive chains of Ruth Chris and Mortons. I had the 18oz NY strip and wife had the filet mignon. Both steaks were prepared perfectly as they should be and the sides were excellent as well. I got the corn creme brulee as a side which was interesting & really good. We also had the oysters chopafella (not sure of exact appetizer name) which were outstanding. Wine list was overwhelming, in a good way, with a great range of bottles under $50 which is my cheapness limit. You may ask why 4 stars & not 5, well because luckily for us the place was empty since it was off-season or it would have been annoying as close the tables are to each other. read more

Holy Smokes!!! I had the best steak in my life here. I ordered the beef filet three ways, ( I think that was the name of it). It was 3 small filet mignons, each prepared a different way. They were all great and the best steak I ever ate! read more

One of the higher grade steakhouses in Naples. Decent dry-aged cuts cooked perfectly. Restaurant ambiance is ordinary with customary fine dining/white table service found on 5th with all sides a la carte. Service is competent, though wound a bit tight at times, and restaurant can come off as a bit sterile, lacking personality. Steaks are the star of the show here, but sides & desserts stand their own ground. Recommend when in downtown looking for a quality steak. read more

My wife and I have been dining at Chops in Naples for many, many years. It was our very favorite restaurant in Naples, FL. We celebrated out birthdays, anniversaries, took family and friends there and enjoyed it. We went back on January 14, 2020 after the renovations were complete. We were so disappointed and sad. We no longer have a "favorite" restaurant in Naples and we live here full time. The food was OK as was the service. Just OK. The steaks were nothing to brag about. The prices for everything, including the sides, were higher and truly outrageous. No longer did the steaks come to the table garnished with french fried onions. There were so many disappointments we could go on forever. Sadly, we won't be back. read more

Everything about this place is good! The food is always consistent, great atmosphere, and the service is fabulous! Most restaurant owners could learn something by eating at Chops...train your help to give good service! It's the best way to keep your customers happy and coming back. I would recommend making reservations...it's always busy. read more

4.5 stars I had the strip steak. It was very good but not excellent enough for 5 stars. The sides were fresh and tasty. read more

I always enjoy chops on my many visits to our second home in Naples. It's so hard not to get the oysters chopafeller everytime, but the crab cake appetizer is also absolutely amazing. My grandfather is a big fan of the short ribs, and I either get the miso salmon which is delicious or the filet Oscar which is out of this world. Our last visit just a week or so ago we received mini ice cream cones with a delicious white chocolate ice cream. Amazing! Always thrilled and they always get 5 stars from me. read more

Everything about Chops is phenomenal. The service is great, the wine menu is diverse, the food is spectacular. Here's your plan of action for the evening: Start out with the oysters chopafeller. They're pretty tasty and will prepare you for the rest of the meal's deliciousness. Next course, the tuna chop. Make sure you eat it quickly before the lemon juice cures the tuna. Skip the salads, you don't have the space. Main course: 18oz strip. The most flavorful steak I've ever had. Try the blackberry cabernet and the peppercorn cognac sauces with it, you will be amazed. The butternut squash and corn creme brûlée sides complete the excellence. If you still have room for dessert you can't go wrong with anything they have. My only regret is that it's a bit of a drive from my home. Open a downtown Fort Myers location please! read more

The competition is tough in Naples. This place is near the top! Definitely not health food: corn brûlée, caramelized squash. Try the veggie plate!! Fish is excellent too. read more

Friends took us here to celebrate a birthday! They had been here before but don't plan on coming back. We waited 25 minutes to give our drink order and then 10 more to get them. When we ordered our food, there was another long delay. We then realized that the steaks were raw and got the manager to take them back to the kitchen. Our waiter gave us a small salmon dish in the interim and afterwards, gave us two complimentary desserts. The bone in rib eye was 22 oz with 12 being grizzle and inedible - don't waste your money on this entree. The aged strip steak was good once it was cooked properly but it was a badly timed dinner with sub par food. Spend your money elsewhere. read more

Chops is a delicious steakhouse, with a great wait staff and beautiful ambiance. I loved all of the appetizers and sides that we ordered. The filet mignon was pure perfection. Treat yourself to this fabulous restaurant! read more

My favorite restaurant in Naples, and a really good steakhouse in general. I've been here dozens of times over the years and have never been let down. I usually go for the NY Strip (medium rare), but the filet is also really good. Get the truffle fries or the loaded mashed potatoes (SO GOOD!) Definitely consider getting reservations, unless you like waiting a long time and/or eating at 9pm. read more

What a great surprise. NYC quality and presentation restaurant while on vacation. The waiters know their stuff and can make suggestions. Great ambience and crowd. I really enjoyed my prime rib medium rear and it was actually served medium rear! Great choice of wines and spirits too! I will definitely go again when in Naples. read more

Excellent service, rather pricey (although certainly worth it), and great food. I never have high expectations whenever I go to restaurants that are known for steak or seafood, as I am a vegetarian, but the "fresh vegetables" entree was delicious. It consisted of a variety of the side dishes, rather than large, tasteless pieces of veggies that usually make up vegetarian-oriented menu items. For desert, I shared a piece of the cheesecake with someone in my party. The portion we were given was very large for it being such a rich food. The cheesecake was one of the best I have had, but I do recommend sharing a piece with someone- the pieces are too large to finish more than half of, and they cost $9.50 each. Espresso was also very good. We will definitely be back! read more

Overrated on both food and service. We had a negative experience with the service--wrong order delivered and one of our party ended up eating long after the rest of us were finished. The waiter made him feel like it was his fault; manager never came over and the food was just O.K. For a better dining experince go to Stony's and you will be blown away. read more

Our last night in Naples we wanted to go out for a nice dinner and we found a great place. First the service was really, really great! Our waiter was so attentive but not overly present, very funny and gave great advice. I had two of their specials - a caprese salad that was so yummy and a chicken pasta dish that again was great. My mom and sister both had steak. I tried my sister's loaded mashed potatoes and they were really good. My mom ordered a corn side dish that was good but weird -- like creme brulee with corn mixed in?? For dessert we split apple pie -- it was fine but I could have skipped it. read more
