Ordered medium ribeye, was brought a steak almost raw. Reluctantly sent it back and explained the reason. Waitress was nice and took it back to be on the grill longer. Brought back and darker on outside by very rare inside. Was able to eat 4 bites. Waitress agreed it wasn't close to medium, manager offered a free desert, was charged full price for 4 bites. I do know recommend this restaurant. Unfortunate since new owner is allowing long family business fail. read more

It is true steak house from the fresh ground pepper for your salad, to the condiment tray. The food arrived hot and butter melted on your food. The Brandy Alexander was fantastic. read more

This place has seen its best days. I welcome the new wave. I don't think it's worth the increased prices. I have compared others. They are exceedingly higher and not the best in flavor. read more

Great steaks! The place we go for special occasions. Great service. Highly recommend.

Steaks not grilled, drench them in liquid smoke, over priced for mediocre food at best.

Absolutely such a special night for dinner me and my friends will never forget! The food was absolutely delicious. We ordered oysters crab claws steak drinks desserts. The waiter was phenomenal. I can't say enough. What a gem in this small town! Will definitely return when we travel this way again. So worth it! read more

Delicious! We had filets and a ribeye. Loaded baked potatoes and homemade salad dressing. Very attentive staff. The turtle ice cream pie was the best. Pricey? Yes. Quaint and romantic? Yes. Didn't try any appetizers. Parking onsite! read more

Great food! Had the sautéed crab claws and loaded cheesy potatoes. Everything was fantastic will definitely visit again, next time I am in the area. read more

George's was recommended by our boss and it DID NOT disappoint. We don't go out to have a steak dinner bc we are sooooo picky about our steaks and me and my hubby both agree that I can cook a better steak at home than what we can get at any restaurant. George's Steak Pit is an exception to this rule of ours. We both ordered the 23 Oz. Bone-in Ribeye and it was cooked to perfection and was absolutely the best steak either of us have EVER eaten. We had the Ahi Tuna appetizer, suggested by our bartender/waitress, and it was exceptional as well. We reserved our seats at the bar last minute (about 3pm for 6:30 pm) and they were the only open seats when we got there. We were seated immediately and had excellent service from our bartender, Molly. She was EXTREMELY busy but NOT ONE TIME did she waiver in making sure we had everything we needed and making sure we were taken care of. Our meal was pricey for 2 people but it was absolutely worth every penny. It was our first time here but we will definitely be back to sit at the bar and ask for Molly. For the best steak you've EVER eaten, go to George's Steak Pit. You WILL NOT regret it. 10/10 recommend!!!! read more

Our experience here could not have been worse. Not only was the food disappointing, the waitress (Allyson C.) was rude beyond words. The prime rib was cold and undercooked. The sweet potato I had wasn't cooked. When I told her she said "if one isn't cooked then none of them are." | was offered a piece of cheesecake for my "sweet potato troubles". We will not be back. read more

By far the best ribeye steak in the Shoals area. I ordered the Bone-In Ribeye (medium-rare), baked potato, onion soup and salad w/ranch dressing. Atmosphere was pleasant and our server was tops. Highly recommend George's Steak Pit. read more

Perfect place for a date night . We love this place ! We have always had perfect service, perfect food & great drinks at George's Their employees have been there from 32 years & up. That tells you a lot! Thank you Brent for your service tonight . We absolutely enjoyed taking our son here for dinner . Making new memories read more

We are in town celebrating the upcoming nuptials of dear friends, and we wanted to take them out for a special meal the night before their wedding. I was very disappointed. For the amount of money they charge I expected much better. We arrived at 6:30 and were not greeted at the hostess stand. Not a problem but it did give me the opportunity to notice the fast food large soda cups decorating the area. Trashy. We were taken into the first dining room, but it took a few minutes because there was a giant table of at least 20 people including young children celebrating a birthday and taking pictures, blocking the path to our table. Not exactly the atmosphere for a classy dinner. I asked that we be moved to another table, and was told the other party would be leaving soon. I insisted and a few minutes later we were taken to another dining room. The food: I've had better at Texas Roadhouse. The salad was mediocre at best, the lettuce was actually slightly wilted. The prime rib was cooked medium rare as requested but was lukewarm. Au jus was bland and the horseradish sauce tasted like they added sugar. The steamed broccoli was mushy. I was surprised to see that the bread basked was filled with buttered toast. I would not call it Texas toast as it was not thick enough but I guess that is what they were going for. The service: I had to ask for my water to be refilled several times. The staff scurried from table to table, they were doing their best but it did make us feel rushed. We received our food in a timely manner, no complaints there. This is a white tablecloth establishment with prices in line with fine dining. Unfortunately there was nothing fine about the food we were served. I felt ripped off and will never go back. Two nights earlier we went to Does Eat Place in Russellville, AL. The entire experience was far superior to George's for less money. Try them instead of George's if you want a good steak. Bottom line, this might have been considered a top of the line restaurant years ago, but I would not put it in that category now. Sry disappointed. read more

As it always is our steaks were cooked to perfection & our waitress was excellent. Their homemade salad dressing is delicious!!

Not worth it. I don't mind spending $100 on a fine meal. I've spent more than that in the past. Thing is, for the price I expect much much more. George's has the single worst filet mignon I've ever eaten. It's as if the chef was trained at the Western Sizzlin steak house. The grill is obviously too hot and I suspect the "chef" flipped the fillet mignon like a hamburger and squashed it flat with a spatula. Good Lord man, learn how to cook a steak. On the other hand, my wife had a wonderful time... Not having to cook or clean up after our meal. That alone may have made the price of the meal worth it. read more

One of my favorite local steakhouses. Steaks, seafood and salads are all wonderful. The cream brûlée is my personal favorite dessert.

The company I work for had a Christmas luncheon at this location. The food was quite good. The service was friendly and professional. Honestly, this kind of establishment a tad too high brow for MY culinary taste. It is a classic steakhouse . No complaints! read more

Filet Mignon , beautiful steaks ! Everything is amazing there !!! But unfortunately I haven't been there in years, I live in Georgia, but I still make a few trips to this area ! read more

So so good. Big fan of this place. Went for a nice dinner with coworkers and we ordered the calamari and stuffed mushrooms as appetizers. Both were delicious. I had the ribeye special with the baked potato and French onion soup sides. Everything was so delicious. The cheese on the soup was perfectly melted and yummy. The potato was fluffy and hot and buttery. And the steak was the star, cooked perfectly with an excellent rub. Had the creek brûlée for dessert and it was torched tableside. Others at my table had a variety of steaks and seafood and loved everything. For dessert, also recommend the strawberry cake, cheesecake, and brownie. read more

George's Steak Pit - Ribeye with baked potato - Steakhouses Near Me - Sheffield, Alabama

I recently ordered the "tenderloin" kabobs which was priced at $31.95 on the menu, but billed at $34.95. (Welcome to JBiden's 2022, I suppose) The couple of onion wedges, 1 piece of bell pepper and 1 small piece of tomato were fine. The baked potato and toasted bread were very good. The salad was fresh and crispy. The "atmosphere" and our waiter were great, as in the past. On the other hand, the "tenderloin" pieces were completely flavorless and tougher than a cheap sirloin that hasn't been tenderized. I literally had trouble chewing it and even digesting it. I paid close to a third of what I'd pay for a whole tenderloin at Sam's Club and the filets I cook on my Big Green Egg would put the "tenderloin" I had the other night totally to shame. I understand that ownership of George's may have changed recently. I have always had great dining experiences there in the past, although I am not a regular there. If my experience is not an anomaly, and I certainly hope it was, the new management will need to make some serious changes soon or their bottom line will certainly suffer. I'll NOT be returning anytime soon. read more

Everything about our dining experience was excellent. The food was delicious! Our server was very attentive. George's has stood the test of time in the Shoals area. We drive down from Tennessee, about an hour away, whenever we want to have a dinner that's beyond the "norm". read more

Nine of us came here for a very special birthday dinner. Good service, a precious waitress, good salad, and ok tasting food. However, all our food came out almost cold. One sent theirs back to be warmed. One ordered Brussels sprouts as their side and they didn't come out until she was almost finished. With prices as they are and reservations required we were all very disappointed. read more

Our favorite! We eat here often. The owners are amazing, the service is next to none and the food is awesome! Try the Greek salad and filet.

Upscale steak house. Steak was cooked to order and the service was excellent. We visited during the holidays so it was busier but we were seated more privately as it was just the two of us. Four stars is only because their seasoning was a bit salty for my personal taste. read more

Wife was looking for a place for us to celebrate Valentine's Day and EVERYTHING was booked within short distance from Huntsville. Fortunately, George's had an one opening on Saturday at 4:30 (opening time) and we took it, despite being a 75 minute drive from home. Let me tell you - the drive was well worth it! The food and service were absolutely top notch. We both had the prime rib and it was absolutely delicious. In fact, everything was superb. Highly recommend this restaurant - we will be back! read more

I am pretty sure this place is meant for locals, because the way they place there sign, there is no way for an out of towner to find this place unless they have the address and a GPS. I walked in just after 5, and no staff were around. I wasn't even sure they where open. I wandered around, called into the back room where several staff were working...no response. Finally, the barkeeper found me, and bade me a set at the bar. No beer on tap, so I ordered a house red. About 5:30, local started coming in. Staff really knew the local folks; I think I was the only non-regular. Seeing as this is a steak place, I ordered the 10 oz Prime Rib with steamed broccoli and French Onion Soup. The prime rib was available in a smaller cut, which is why I ordered it. I love steak, but need to cut back so am normally look for a 6 or 8 oz cut. Anyway, I ordered rare, but the barkeeper came back after checking and said the best they could do was medium rare; which is fine, at least they asked rather than try and pass off medium rare as rare. I love french onion soup, and theirs was very good; could have stood some more toasting on the cheese but for a restaurant it was excellent. The prime rib was okay, have had much better, but have had much worse. Broccoli was pretty good as well. So, there are not a lot of steak houses in Alabama, so this is probably 4.5 stars for the state. Compared with the steak houses in the rest of the country I have visited, I'd give it a 3. read more

Great food and great service. Hidden gem! Met the owners and found them to be fantastic folks. Highly recommend giving them a try!

Great steak. Wood fire makes all the difference.

Excellent service and food! Highly recommend. Did not have reservation but went early in the evening and was seated immediately.

Always good beef. I'm especially a fan of the prime rib. Service is attentive, prompt and accurate.

Service was very very slow The food was very tender but did not have a lot taste to it and it was very expensive for the quality read more

O-M-G!!! I don't even know where to start^^ We came here for my birthday and it was absolutely phenomenal; the best steak I've ever had the wine was delicious and the calamari appetizer was great and not very greasy either. You absolutely have to get the onion soup, it is sensational! The steak was so juicy and delicious that I can't wait to come back here. I'd recommend the 23 oz. bone-in ribeye with loaded baked potato! It is not cheap, but after you're done you'll see that it is totally worth every penny you spent :) Creme brûlée dessert was a must for me haha and it was a great end to the overall dining experience! If you're in the area, you MUST GO here for sure!!! read more

Excellent steaks and top service! Definitely a prime spot for a upscale evening out, especially a date night.

George's was recommended by Dale's brother, so tonight we dined at George's Steak Pit Four stars for sure! Calamari, house wine, salad, baked potato, broccoli and New York Strip, grilled to perfection over a hickory fire pit! All done to perfection, topped with delicious dessert of crime brûlée. Wonderful atmosphere and service was great. Donna , our waitress was very attentive and good to answer questions. We do not live in area; but look forward to coming back and eating here again! read more

We visited George's to celebrate my grandparents 50th wedding anniversary. The service was absolutely top notch. From ensuring we had a room with everything we needed, to making sure a glass was never below half full. we were well taken care of! The menu was definitely pricy, but I'd say it was overall worth it. The steak wasn't the best I'd ever had, but it was cooked and seasoned perfectly and paired with a great chicken breast. Since it's December, George's was decorated for Christmas so beautifully. It would be so romantic for a couple's date night! Overall a great experience, we will return again for a special occasion. EDITED TO ADD: I also had my two year old with me who had a great time! The waitstaff seemed not to be bothered by her at all, and took several moments to speak to her and make her smile. And continued to bring more crackers since she definitely was enjoying them read more

The prime rib was one of the best I have ever had. The service was excellent and the atmosphere was nice. I would highly recommend this place. read more

Absolutely loved it! I had the filet mignon cooked medium and my boyfriend had the George special ribeye cooked medium well. Both were great but mine was better. The hostess was very friendly & gave good advice on food selection. I liked the topping for the oysters rockefeller but the oysters were tough. The long Island ice tea was good, not too strong but not weak either. Hopefully I'll get a chance to visit again read more

George's Steak Pit - Oyster rockefeller, my favorite. This 1 gets 3.5 outta 5. Pretty good. I love the flavor of the toppings, but the oysters were a bit tough - Steakhouses Near Me - Sheffield, Alabama

I have always maintained that this is the best steak period. Frank who represents his father's creation of fifty plus years, runs a tight ship and insists on excellence. He has managed to retain his professional grill masters (for real, any other title would be inadequate)hostess and bartender for many years now. The secret to the flavor is the hickory, George's meats have always been cooked over hickory. Oh yeah, the fact that the meats are dry-aged also has something to do with it, the rib-eye is my personal favorite, but the filet is incredible too. The wine list is not that extensive but I challenge you to find better matched wines to their menu offerings. The front staff are always helpful, pleasant and efficient. I rarely have room for deserts but the last time I had the cheese cake and a George's coffee, it was the perfect end to a perfect meal. Another thing I like about George's is that almost every time I eat there Frank (the owner) drops by to personally inquire about the quality of our dining experience. Really good steaks are getting harder and to find, so I highly encourage you to go experience for yourself what a fifty year old business model looks like today. George would be proud. read more

Sadly, my first experience with George's was less than a week after having oral surgery. I considered not attending a big group dinner since I wouldn't be able to chew steak very well. Thank heavens I didn't!!! I got the seared tuna and it was unbelievable! Cooked to a perfect medium-rare. Seasoned beautifully. My mouth is watering just thinking about it! Everyone in our party raved about all of their dishes. The service was impeccable, except for a brief annoyance with the bartender who seemed to want to serve all the men first before acknowledging a couple ladies who don't need our significant others to order for us. Overall, one of the best meals I have had in The Shoals! I can't wait to go back! read more

This is by far the best steakhouse in Alabama. The steaks are great and will be cooked to perfection. The service is good and the atmosphere is also. We make the hour and half drive to eat here frequently. read more
