My wife and I had a phenomenal meal with friends. The food was fantastic, and the server was outstanding. My water glass was ever empty. I had a grilled pork chop with steak fries, and the pork chop was perfectly prepared. The cost of the meal was very reasonable. I definitely want to go back there again. read more

Good food, good service. Always a wait but worth it. I would just suggest more room the sit while waiting.

I love Hooters, butt I love me some Heinnie's even more. The owner is awesome and so is the food. Gotta go back soon. Thanks Troy.

Once you become a regular the service becomes friendlier. Until then you are just a stranger whom might not be a big tipper. For example the first time I came here was not memorable, the second time my prime rib was dry, but the third time it was perfection with the best service yet. Although the third time was the only time I didn't get a basket of bread. read more

Might be the best steak I have had in any town in quite a while. In town on business and a group of us went to this place around 8:45 at night. Not very busy that night so seated quick and drink orders taken. Had the NY strip which seemed larger than a 10oz and cooked perfectly, juicy and thick. Great steak fried and salad was good too. Will certainly come here again the next time I am in town. read more

This place is a real treat. The steak was phenomenal. The server was excellent. The atmosphere was unique. I would recommend updating the seating to comfier chairs and get some real restaurant tables; however, the taste of the charbroiled prime rib (only offered on Sat, Sun., & Mon. I believe) well made up for it. The ham & bean soup was great as well! read more

Absolutely hands down the best steak house in Elkhart county!!! You can't go wrong with Heinnies, every meal I've ever had has been above my expectations. read more

Love stopping in here and grabbing a bite. Probably the best side salad in Elkhart too (if you get everything on it).

Food was good service good menu kind of short. Didn't bring credit card back to table. Had to return next day and retrieve card.

Being from out of town, we relied on Yelp and the confirmation of our hotel clerk on a good local spot. Heinnie's did not disappoint. You may wonder if you're going in the right doors, but if you're at the double doors on the side of the building, GO IN! We saw a lot of folks eating steaks- sirloins mostly it seemed, but we were looking for a little lighter fare. Their specialty is the Heinnie Burger, with a blend of spices and onion mixed in with the burger. For those saying they want a lighter fare but ignoring their common sense, there is the Clabaugh, named for one of their favorite patrons, that consists of a double Heinnie plus bacon, mushrooms and three different cheeses and all the fixins. When the waitress said it was intimidating, she wasn't kidding. I'm a pretty healthy person, fairly fit and I can't remember ever eating that much at a restaurant. If you've got a healthy appetite, you can probably easily handle it. Most importantly- it was awesome! Didn't order the fries, but my son said they were really good. My wife had a fried pollock sandwich that she really enjoyed. Make sure to have the combo platter for an app - the zucchini sticks are great! BONUS- Not on the menu, but they have Yuengling Black & Tan, and Light!! If we're back this way, this will be a must stop. read more

I went to Heinnie's for dinner and sat at the bar and was served immediately. My wife and I had a great dinner and drinks. The bartender was very friendly and gave us exemplary service. The soup was awesome and the Prime Rib was perfect! read more

Love their Buffalo Burger and Fries. Non better. Buffalo meat is lean and basically fat free. Their large fries are excellent. Servers are friendly and have good sense of humor. Important to me because I am kind of goofy. Wish they had a bigger sign out front I always go past it. Gotta drive slower, I guess! read more

Ugh. This place was a dud. Poor service. Food was flavorless. I wish we never went honestly. The environment was bland and well, just a little dirty and gross. read more

There is NO other place I go in Elkhart County or St. Joseph County when I want steak! Their cuts of meat and their cook ability to cook are unmatched!! Good service and good drinks. !! read more

This is a great place to eat! We were there on prime rib night and did we ever get a meal! The meat was delicious, sides were very nice, and a huge salad. Our waiter made the evening. She knew how to properly serve her customers. We were so stuffed, we could barely waddle out to our car. read more

We found this restaurant on Yelp when we were in town for a Notre Dame game. Portions were large and my sandwich was enough for two meals. It was really good bar food. We went before the dinner menu, but we did order the fried chicken to eat the next day before the game. Even cold, the chicken was crispy and tasty. read more

Excellent food Fast service highly recommend. Everything from steak to hamburgers and everything in between. Great salad.

Great food, Great service, Great atmosphere! Cole behind the bar is awesome. Get there early and avoid the wait.

One of my favorite places when I'm in the Elkhart area. The stakes are spot on never get a bad meal. The bartenders and waitstaff are 100% happy to be there working. A bunch of great people with wonderful food read more

Great service, great food and great value. I highly recommend them. I will be back. I had the filet and my husband had the prime rib. Yum! read more

Really awesome prime rib, great service, just a good ole family pub , their French onion soup is a must ..

Had my son's birthday party there. Great service, all food came out hot and quickly. Food was awesome too. Only issue is the party room is by the kitchen and servers would cut thru while the party was going on, even if we shut the doors. read more

Great food and great service! Can't get crowded in the bar in the evening. Try the onion rings! Burgers are great also.

We celebrated out 65th and 64th anniversaries with our friends. Very good service and friendly wait staff. My prime was just like I remembered from years ago. Went back twice in the same week. Very good. A little expensive on old senior income, but good for every once in a while treat. Enjoyed my meal. read more

Heinnies is the kind of hidden gem that's hard to find unless you're a local. It's tucked away slightly off the beaten path and doesn't have a large flashy sign out front ushering you in. Walking in the regulars turned their heads but then continued on with their own business. Ordered a Heinniecheeseburger cooked rare with the all fixings and a basket of waffle fries. It was a patty formed from 1/3 pound of fresh ground Prime steak trimmings topped with American cheese on a soft white bun. The burger was the juiciest most flavorful burger I have ever had. And I've eaten a lot of burgers. The patty juices completely wreaked havoc on the bun. The buns held up until the end, but barely. The rabbit food is completely unnecessary and might have ruined a lesser burger. In the Heinnie the vegetation merely acted as a distraction and I didn't notice it. Get your burgers with just cheese, patty and bun and you'll be loving it. Waffle fries were perfectly fried and seasoned. For the big boys, they have the Claybaugh, which are two Heinnies topped with just about every single type of cheese and topping possible. I wasn't ready for a food coma just yet though, maybe next time. Prices can't be beat w/ the Heinnie being 5 bucks and a Heinnie plate rounding out at 7.45 (includes fries and slaw). If you ever find yourself in the area and can appreciate a good burger, it's a definite must try. read more

Great place to eat. Kim and I got fish. Kim had the baked fish with herb butter I had the fried fish. Kim's fish was super fresh and flakey. It was baked perfectly and paired with a vegetable medley. My fried fish came out super fresh. It was flakey and the breading was just right. The steak cut fries were great and the coleslaw was fresh and crunchy. We had salads for starters and you can not ask for anything better. Crisp salad mix in a cold bowl with cherry tomatoes. I would recommend this awesome restaurant in Elkhart. read more

Not bad but not great. Service was adequate and food could have been kicked up a bit. Would I go again? Probably if family wanted to go, but I would not drive more than 10 miles for it. read more

Whenever I'm in Elkhart, I'm in Elkhart I crave Their steaks. Was there last Wednesday and had one of the best prime ribs ever. Sure I didn't expected to be $28, but you're not gonna find it in any chain steakhouse. Dealing with everything going on I think they did an exceptional job and if I didn't live three hours away I'd be eating it tonight. I volunteer for jobsites in Elkhart. read more

One of the best juiciest filets I have ever had. The potato was fresh and fluffy The decor rustic and bathrooms were clean. Our server was friendly and attentive. Meal came with a large piece of garlic bread. Now for the strange things our server asked me if I would like croutons and cheese on my salad., there would be a charge for them. When does a salad not come with croutons? We ordered mixed drinks from the bar and when we got the bill the alcohol was charged and then the mixer was charged separately so in other words my Malibu and pineapple juice was $5 for the Malibu and $0.50 for the pineapple juice my husband's whiskey and Diet Coke was $5 for the whiskey and $0.50 for the diet coke. The mushrooms and onions had we ordered them was $5 extra. Now mind you our steaks were $26.99 and $27.99 each for that price you think you'd get some mushrooms and onions or some flipping croutons for your salad. Maybe this is normal for Indiana but it's not normal for where we come from read more

Heinnies - One of the best bits of steaks ever - Steakhouses Near Me - Elkhart, Indiana

Service is good. I always get the bar fish or the shrimp over rice. It's always spot on. Ham and beans were under seasoned for me. But rest of the food made up for it. read more

A true Elkhart classic. Great bar atmosphere and great bar drinks. Food is always great, and the Hennie Cheeseburger is a true go to.

Stopped in for a late dinner while we were in town for a hockey tournament. A great fInd! Had the strip steak with a salad. The side salad was big enough to be its own meal. My steak was cooked perfectly and tasted like a grilled steak should. read more

The best steaks in and around Elkhart. I ordered two ribeyes and one prime rib. All three were cooked to perfection. The staff was friendly and helpful. I really recommend trying them. read more

Awesome place to go grab a bite to eat and have a couple drinks! Friendly staff with great service

Well, let me just start with customer service....excellent! Two friendly faces greeted us as we walked through the front door. They took us to our seats promptly and two servers both wished us to have a good meal. Our waitress was very kind and accommodating. She got us our drinks very quickly we ordered some onion ring appetizers and they seem to be ready in the blink of an eye. We both ordered the double Heinnies cheese burger and I would post a picture but it was so big I don't think I could fit it in the frame of the camera on my phone. It was well seasoned well cooked and had a great selection of toppings to put on it. It was too big to eat, we should've gotten a single burger! I read about this place in the newspaper and we decided to try it out tonight. We will definitely be back. Great service great food! Fast and friendly! Certainly give this a try if you have time!! I don't think he will be disappointed read more

Great cheeseburger and steak fries- cooked to order and so delicious. Really nice server. Prices very reasonable too. Highly recommend!

We love their chicken and hamburgers. Staff members are friendly and helpful. The only reason I didn't get them 5 star is that the last two times we tried to order chicken they were out read more

Best steaks around. Great food, great service. Prices are very reasonable. Generous portions...When you get there just before they open and there's already a line at the door, on Wednesday, you know I ain't bewlshittin you. I've never had my steak come out other than just how I ordered it. This place is on point. If you don't like Heinnie's, you don't like America and probably think break truck food is delicious. read more
