Old school elegance. Great service, nice big room, clean and good food. The salad bar is a star - don't miss it. I had the early bird dinner special: unlimited salad bar + an 8 oz. strip steak cooked perfectly and served with potatoes and veg. I didn't eat the dessert - but there were several choices. All for $30. Big winner. read more

My husband and I made a reservation. It was around 8 PM on a Friday night, knicks playing, probably didn't need the reservation. The staff was kind and polite, the food wasn't bad at all. The salad bar seemed a little old but I did enjoy their warm bread and cornbread. We still had salad and enjoyed our meals. I left room for dessert... of course but there was no espresso for the AFFOGATO!! Overall the vibe was casual cozy enough for me to enjoy my night. read more

Came for an early dinner so I tried the $29 price fix steak tips served with asparagus and mashed potatoes, salad bar and dessert. The tips were good but not great. Salad bar was really good. My date had the cowboy ribeye which he enjoyed. The menu has lots of choices. Our wine was good and dessert was delicious. Service was excellent. read more

Went to Chucks for out wedding anniversary dinner and we have a mixed review. On the good side the place looks nice and all servers and waiters were very polite. Lester did a good job serving us. We enjoyed the open salad bar and ambiance of the place. For a rainy Monday the place was pretty packed with locals. The steaks were very good. Ordered two 20 oz bone in rib eyes medium rare and the steaks were cooked to perfection. The downside of this review should actually be an easy fix; The sides! The cream of spinach was not good. It did not look fresh, and my wife and I go to many steakhouses and can tell right off the bat just by looking at the cream spinach that it was not going to be good. The mashed potatoes were cold ! Presented in a way as it was not made from scratch and there was not any gravy offered either. Lester took the spinach off the bill and we ordered fries. Overall we had a good time and I would like to go back to try their burger and Philly steak sandwiches. This place can really go from a 3 star to 4 or 5 easily if they would focus on the sides completing the official steakhouse experience. Drinks were good. There are happy hour specials for those interested. Lester hooked us up with a yummy chocolate and ice cream cake for our anniversary. Thank you. Rooting for improvements for Chuck's steakhouse. read more

I have never had a bad experience at Chucks, the Steaks are melt in your mouth good, they do a fantastic pork chop. French onion soup is the best I've ever had and I've had it everywhere, the salad bar is fresh and always full. i do wish they would go back to chilling their salad plates. The bread is always great. better than decent deserts. if you have room for them go for it. Fantastic service i beleive is hereditary at Chucks. the wait staff really takes care of you. read more

Very disappointing in terms of food taste and quality. Went here for a coworker's retirement party. We were all packed into this tiny party room where barely anyone could fit into a table. We got our drinks fairly quickly. It took an hr for us to be allowed in the salad bar. I ate a small amount so not to be spoiled. When it came time for our meals it was a weird buffet style meal. The "fillet mignon", onions and mushrooms were just regular beef. Juicy meat but some of us were expecting a big piece of meat to cut. The tongs were like those old school hand resistance training thingies. The pasta hardly had any taste, the best thing was the chicken parm and mashed potatoes. The servers were okay. But they were spilling drinks around the tables. It was very cold and uncomfortable inside from people opening the door. They could have closed the door to our party room so it wouldnt get so drafty. I would've liked ice cream instead of Costco cake for dessert. It was also full of drunk people shouting all evening. But what was more important was saying goodbye to a very kind colleague. It's unfortunate that the food wasn't so memorable. read more

Five of us went for dinner tonight, Christmas Eve. The service was great and we all loved our meals. Three of us had Prime Rib special, one had a crabmeat stuffed lobster tail and one had a lump crab cake with fries. The salad bar was fresh and delicious. We would absolutely go back. Yum. read more

Burger was great. Wings were great. Do not order raw clams. $16 for teeny weenie. Very very small. Size of my pinky. Not talking about the clam shell. Deserts were great. Ny cheesecake and expresso coffee. This was at lunchtime. Server was great and attentive. read more

My family and I had a wonderful time here! The restaurant was spacious and cozy, and the staff members were all very friendly and attuned! The burger was delicious and the complimentary salad bar had really good options, especially their chicken and potato salads! My only critique is their French onion soup was mild in flavor which was overly bland for our liking. Other than that, highly recommend giving them a shot! Thank you for reading and best of luck!

Great hospitality! Tom gave us the choice to have a table inside the dining area or in the sunroom. The sunroom was perfect for our evening meal. Vinnie was knowledgeable about the menu and a professional manager for our meal. Wonderful salad bar, fresh and variety of items with bread and cornbread all included in our meal. Lovely Ole time steak house, ole class deco and ambiance, we loved it. Big parking lot. We are coming back for great New York Stip, mashed potatoes, carrots and salad bar. The cheese burger, fries and salad bar was perfect. Athens Tennessee folks, we felt right at home. Thanks Tom and Vinnie read more

Nicole our server was excellent. A wonderful personality with great service and suggestions. She was constantly following up on the food and drinks. So nice to talk to also. The salad bar was fresh with a great selection including chicken and potato salad, and the meals were also very good. Great specials that include drinks. Will be back and will ask for Nicole. read more

Prices were more than what it said on the menu. Food was okay. Salad bar was as good as usual!!

Three stars. Chuck's Steak House has an old-school vibe that will appeal to some, but might feel dated to others. The ribeye was cooked to order, though the flavor didn't quite match the price point. The salad bar offered a variety of options, but could use a refresh. Service was efficient, and the atmosphere leans heavily into nostalgia. Good for a casual night out if you know what to expect. read more

We were seated immediately (6 people) and ordered very soon after. The steak I had was done perfectly as ordered and the salad bar was exceptionally fresh and had many unusually delicious items. The ambiance was comfortable and not noisy . We were in Rocky Hill, CT. I really enjoyed the experience!. read more

We ordered the 20oz porterhouse and 20oz ribeye. The porterhouse was chewy and smelled slightly musty. Mashed potatoes (no gravy included) tasted different, but not in a good way. Entrees, overall, are ridiculously expensive but don't include sides. Salad bar was the best part of our meal but it still lacked options. Service was fine but food could use improvement. There are definitely better steakhouse options out there. read more

Gave us a raw steak, asked for medium rare not raw I don't know what's going on but get a new cook read more

We have come here several time but this was my least favorite time. One member of our party of 6 is vegetarian and the menu used to have eggplant on it, or at least a vegetarian pasta dish. However, that was discontinued and while they did make considerations for the dietary needs it is not the same as offering a meal that was planned with those dietary preferences. The waitress, who was very nice, suggested the salad bar. Considering that this is a high end restaurant that is not acceptable. When I spoke to the Maitre 'd on the way out, he tried to shut me down. I doubt that I will try it again when there are so many other restaurants that try to do the right thing and make you want to come back. Major Disappointment! We loved this place when it was Barbarie's. Was it sold? read more

The food was good and the service was acceptable. The raw oysters and clams were very fresh. The salad bar has not changed much over the years and that's a good thing. Overall, the restaurant is good and we plan to go back next time we are in the area. read more

Definitely need to dress up a bit. A nice shirt and pair of pants will do. It's not to fancy but it is a steakhouse. The service was good. The server was tentative and professional. The establishment was very busy. Everyone that we encountered was polite bartender, waiter, host. As for the food, we ordered filet mignon wrapped with bacon, t-bone, lobster tail, Snow crab legs, and macaroni and cheese. The T-bone was a tough but hooked as asked to medium rare. The filet mignon was soft and cooked exactly as asked. Tail was a little overcooked. The snow crab was good. And the macaroni and cheese was OK, could use more flavor. The owner sent us over a complementary dessert. A chocolate type fudge cake with vanilla ice cream. Which was good. read more

Chuck's Steak House - Steakhouses Near Me - Danbury, Connecticut

The Stuffed Shrimp entree is 3 shrimp! Three!?!? I'm sure you guys can do better than that for $37. Disappointing to return to a restaurant (under new ownership) that our family has been going to for 30+ years and get 3 shrimp for my dinner. Salad bar is nice. Glad you guys kept that the way it was. But come on, let's be reasonable...three shrimp in the stuffed shrimp entree, four scallops in the sea scallop entree and mostly peppers and onions in the steak sandwich. Feels like they're cutting corners here in a major way. read more

The food is terribly overpriced. The entire experience of eating at the bar was overshadowed by a loudmouthed maitre d' at the front door. He was insufferably loud, crude and just a show off. It detracted from th entire experience. The bartenders are very slow. read more

1st time have steaks at this location, a friend suggested this place to celebrate her bday. After visiting the PeZ museum , we drove to Chucks. It's a long drive from Eastchester but hey if you want steaks thats cooked right the way customers desire. This is the place to go to. There's parking. Food is delicious , they have a Special of the day menu. The price for their food will not break your wallet. It's worth it. There's a salad bar. Their deserts are to crave for. The service is average , depends how busy it is at that time and day. Your servicer can be tired and burned out. The atmosphere makes you feel like you're in a cabin with a burning log. Route 84 is mins away from the restaurant. Til next time! read more

Do not ever deal with Tony at that restaurant. He is so unprofessional and should retire. He does not know how to treat customers. He has a short fuse. I had an issue and he handled it very poorly. I will not be back! read more

The salad bar is very dated and mediocre but still a minor hit. My wife got the filet mignon tips in au-poivre sauce over mashed potatoes. MEat was cooked perfectly but he sauce was generic and pre packaged. However my Tomahawk ribeye was actually a good cut and good quality. Cooked perfectly to medium rare it was delicious as I had mine with mushrooms on top. The loaded baked potatoe was actually a side of loaded mashed potatoes? Strange but it was actually very tasty and really loaded. The warm chocolate fudge cake for desert was yummy! Server was new and didnt speak much english but overall it was a good expreience.. We will be back! read more

The old chucks was terrible and the new owners seem to have carried on the tradition. From a cheap skate salad bar to meager entree offerings this place stinks. One would expect more from the owners of Black angus read more

It's been a while that we have visit Chuck's it's still an amazing place! Still the same charm and pleasant place for dinner. They took me yesterday for my birthday and did they deliver! A party of ten and out waitresses was on Que she was very pleasant attentive and a joy to have her, it saddens me I didn't get her name , she make the evening an excellent experience, very charming and professional. Chuck's doesn't disappoint! Thank you for a fun and wonderful evening, signed John Auli read more

My daughter and I ordered the prime rib special, medium. Waited 40 minutes for over cooked dry piece of meat. No pink at all, no flavor, shoe leather. Salad bar consisted of pretty much empty bowls of sad lettuce. Very disappointing, it's our first visit under the new ownership, and it's our last. read more

Started off strong, with the management who was hosting was excellent. Our waitress was amazing as well. Here's where everything went wrong. The actual meal was horrible. First round, the steak was overcooked and the lamb was raw. Second round- same thing. After showing the waitress, it was still raw. She was upset with it too. They did make it right at the end, but ultimately we had to find somewhere else to get food. read more

Salad bar was fresh. Service was good. Great atmosphere. Steak and prime rib were terrible. Ordered both medium rare and they were so well done. Very disappointing when a steakhouse can't cook a steak. read more

I was staying at hotel across parking lot and didn't nearly go because of the rating. But because it was as conveniently close , I figured I would take a chance. I am not sure if it's really old reviews bringing this place done but I went and had an excellent meal, attentive service , very clean and rustic charming ambiance. I ordered the bang bang chicken as a starter and it was out of the world amazing. I am kind of glad I live 3 hours away or I would be regularly ordering this dish it's addictive. I tried to bring 1/2 home to family but 2 hours stuck on n Jersey Turnpike finished the order and it held up. For main I ordered sliders was debating on soup and salad bar but the salad bar was ok but not sure enough to justify the price. It would be excellent I am sure when it's included in your entree The sliders were super tasty and filling and fries were great balance of crispy and not too salty. It's a little pricey but then what isn't now a days but definitely worth the stop in. read more

The old chucks closed in Fall of 2023. New management took over and they are now reopened. We had reservations for 4 guests at 7. We arrived and our seats and table were ready. Noticed the inside was brighter than previously. The waitstaff seemed to be all new from previous restaurant. Our waitress came over with menus. The restraunt was very busy. She took our drink orders and apologized if the service is slow because the bar was backed up with orders. Little did we know that wasn't the only part of the restaurant backed up. Our drinks came in a reasonable time. The waitress did not take our order then but came back 10 minutes later. We then ordered. It was 730 pm now. Chucks still maintained their salad bar and it was included in the price if you ordered an entree which we all ordered. The salad bar was a bit smaller than previously but everything was fresh. We waited 90 minutes to get our dinner. Apparently the kitchen was understaffed and our dinners were delayed as well as many other tables. Our waitress pretty much disappeared during this time never informing us that the entrees would be coming out later. Finally around 9 pm- yes 9 pm ! Our entrees came out. My 8 oz fillet looked so small on the dish it was served on. I ordered medium well- it was more like medium rare. Another person ordered medium rare and it was rare. She couldn't finish it. My wife's chicken was a bit undercooked and was sent back for a new chicken breast. The steak was good but why the 90 minute wait to be served? We did have dessert and then left. Overall not terrible but definitely not like the old chucks. Never waited so long for a dish. I felt like I was in a reality tv restaurant show with the slowness of getting our meal. I would say I probably won't be going back anytime soon. Service was good , prices were high and the slowness of getting our entrees were factors in this review. . read more

We had a similar experience as other reviewers who mentioned the inappropriateness of the owner. The food was good and our server was excellent--classic steakhouse quality all around. Unfortunately, the owner made several uncomfortable comments, including remarks about our baby making noise and about other guests' appearances. It took away from what could have been a really enjoyable afternoon. The servers were amazing but the atmosphere is ruined by the owner and the comments he made. We won't be back for that reason. read more
