    Been there three times and the food is always great. Servers were courteous and the servings were very generous. Highly recommend it.

The food was excellent and served hot and fresh and very quickly I may add. The adult drinks were definitely worth it as well. - - Awesome experience.

    Okay, let me preface this with....sometimes you don't always come for the food, you come for the…read moregreat service. I've had my plenty share of amazing steaks all around Atlanta. Trying to find even just a great steak place here in Warner Robins is super hard to find. We found one but they closed. After all week of travel and getting home I was starving and not cooking. I had been to Props once and the food was meh then. Nothing to write home about but it wasn't horrible. So I decided to come back for a second time because it was close to home and I was craving a steak. I ordered the Del Monaco Ribeye and it definitely wasn't that cut of meat. It was super thin, grissly, and super tough to chew. For $48 a steak, you want it to have some thickness to it and be tender, not like chewing leather. It was so tough to chew but I muddled through it and ate it because I wasn't going to sent it back to the kitchen for a reattempt for another steak to go to waste. The Mac and cheese was decent and so were the Brussels. I do let my server know so she would have the feedback and she recommended the NY Strip next time. Now...going back to the service. Even though the food is a little disappointing, the service and attention is excellent. I would come here again just to have Presley serve me. I like that this place pours the wine and not ask you 3, 6, or 9 oz pour just so the house can make their money off one bottle of wine. Presley is a people person, attentive to her guests sitting at her bar, and a good leader. She has conversations with the people around the bar and makes them feel welcomed. The ambiance is nice and the restaurant is clean. So overall, I gave it a three star for the service, not necessarily for the food. I think for the price of the food, the quality of the food isn't there. Flavors are good but quality is not. I'm okay spending money to great food but this is definitely overpriced for the quality.

For cocktails, my husband ordered the Mango Sunshine & I ordered the Cucumber Mojito. Both were refreshing & tasted good overall, but did seem quite weak. For dinner, my husband ordered the braised short rib from the Specials menu & I ordered the lamb chops, one of my absolute favorite foods. I ordered the lamb chops medium rare & they were quite overdone, with the last one I tried to eat being well done. The brussels sprouts on the other hand were quite underdone, and were solid to the point that I couldn't even stick my fork through them. I asked for asparagus as a replacement, which ended up being underdone as well. My husband felt his mashed potatoes were too salty & that his broccoli was cooked into mush, but had no issues with the short rib. On a positive note, the staff was very friendly, & the complimentary biscuits were absolutely delicious. Overall, for the high prices they charge at this establishment, it is absolutely not worth it. I do not think we will be returning.

I would think lunch would be cheaper. They brought our salad out and then brought our steak out, but the steak was not presented well. A tiny charred steak on a huge dinner plate and nothing else. The waitress didn't even give a chance to ask for steak sauce before running off. Bathroom fixtures were leaking and loose. Water was dripping all over the floor.

Matthew was our server and we were never offered bread although the small plates were present at the table. The server Savannah was extremely pleasant and came through and saved this evening. I ordered the steak and Matthew made it seem as if I was incompetent by asking me twice if I wanted the temperature that I asked. I do not like gray meat. But yet I was questioned when I asked for my steak to be medium. It was pretty crowded and the service reflected that. He seemed really aggravated at our table but we saw him chuckling it up with others. We should have dined elsewhere.

We noticed a car's hood was smoking because the employees came out to help the woman signaling to cut off her car. I am pretty sure their shift just ended because they all seemed to be closing for the night and multiple employees walked out of the building. The lady parked her car at Waffle House and they walked over to help. Their interaction with the customer was a breath of fresh air. One of the employees gave her a ride. It was such a kind and caring interaction and the world needs more people like them! We will definitely be trying them out in the future based on this kind interaction outside of their workplace.

In particular, I wanted to buy some oxtail! I called The Butcher Shop to see if they had any and the guy who answered the phone was so kind and patient. He took the time to answer all of my questions. They do sell oxtail for $16.99/lb. I arrived to the store and to my surprise, they have beef bacon! I LOVE BEEF BACON. It's so hard to find it now a days, but when I do find it I definitely treat myself! I can't wait to cook it for breakfast tomorrow. Highly recommend The Butcher Shop and I'll be back soon!

We love sitting at the bar--it's our favorite way to dine because it adds a fun, conversational vibe, and the service was excellent from start to finish. I ordered the ribeye with the Marsala mushroom topping, which was cooked to perfection and packed with flavor. My boyfriend went with the tortellini pasta with shrimp--it had a delicious, mild kick that really elevated the dish. We also shared a side of mushrooms, which were perfectly prepared and full of flavor. Their wine and cocktail selection is solid, though I was disappointed to see decorative wooden boxes for Quilt wine, only to find they don't actually carry it. If you're going to promote it with your décor, I'd love to see a bottle or two available on the menu. One small recommendation: if you're bartending, please avoid touching your face or hair while making drinks--especially when guests are dining at the bar. We love the transparency of sitting up front, but that means we also see things we might not want to. That said, our bartender was otherwise attentive, friendly, and made great drinks. Overall, a fantastic experience with incredible food, elegant ambiance, and attentive service. We'll definitely be back.

    Sad to see another business close its doors. We really enjoyed the food and friendly staff.read more

The chef was pretty standard, but it was so fun watching my MIL get shocked and surprised every time he did something cool, like the flaming onion volcano tower. The food was cooked perfectly although there was a bit too much salt on our hibachi entrees. Half of our group ordered hibachi and the other half ordered sushi, so everyone left happy. I can't remember the name of our server, but he also spoke Japanese, and was the most fun server I've had in recent memory. Thank you, MeAkan, for the night to remember.

The robot server immediately won us over--equal parts charming, efficient, and unintentionally hilarious. Then our human server arrived and somehow managed to out‑funny the robot, which is no small feat. His one‑of‑a‑kind humor absolutely stole the show and had us laughing between every bite. The hibachi chef? Pure perfection. A fantastic cook with the kind of showmanship that makes you wonder if hibachi school includes a minor in stand‑up comedy. Dinner and entertainment rolled into one sizzling performance. The ambiance is classic hibachi--Japanese‑themed, lively, and nicely done. Exactly what you hope for when you're in the mood for dinner with a side of impressive entertainment.
