We're new to the area and have now visited Oak Steakhouse twice. Both visits were wonderful overall…read moreand we'll definitely keep coming back. The restaurant is beautiful, cozy, and comfortable, and the hosts and servers have been excellent every time. We made reservations once through OpenTable and once by phone -- both were easy, and reservations are probably a good idea since they stay busy. The food has been great both times. On our first visit, my husband and I shared the ribeye and loved the flavor. Their Caesar salad is also surprisingly unique and delicious with broccolini instead of a traditional Caesar style. I also really appreciated being able to order a single Rockefeller oyster since most places require a half dozen minimum. The second time we visited for an early Mother's Day dinner with my son and shared the off-menu tomahawk, which was excellent as well. The only consistent issue we've had has been steak temperature. We usually order medium, but their interpretation of medium has come out significantly more rare than expected. The first time, we had to send the steak back, and they asked us to identify only the undercooked portions to recook separately, which was a bit awkward and something we hadn't experienced before at a steakhouse. The second time, we tried being more specific and even requested an approximate temperature around 140°, but the steak came out closer to medium-well. That said, the flavors, atmosphere, and service have been so enjoyable that we'll absolutely keep coming back. We're just hoping we can eventually land on the perfect medium steak on a future visit.

They did offer to warm a few items by microwave and remade 2 of the steaks. It was an extremely rough experience.

On a positive note - the bathrooms were cleaned.

My parents recently moved to the area, and one thing we all agree on is a love for a great steak…read more So when they heard about Harvey John's--and their $45 Tuesday prime rib special--they tried it and loved and brought me while I was visiting. We made a rookie mistake: no reservation. Day before Christmas Eve. The only table available was by the door, which, for us, is a hard no. It was already chilly outside, and sitting by the door means constant drafts, tense shoulders, and food cooling faster with every opening. Not ideal, especially when you're settling in for a proper steak dinner. To their credit, the hostess tried everything--even showing us the reservation layout for the evening. The owner came over personally, and in the end, our options were simple: take the door table or come back at 7:30 pm when more tables would open. We were hungry, but we chose comfort over impatience. My dad left his number just in case a table opened sooner. We went home, had light snacks, and--surprise--got a call at 6:55 pm. Not only was a table available, it was a booth. That alone told me everything I needed to know about how they run this place. Stellar Client Care. When we returned, the owner John Linderman,met us at the door--warm, apologetic, and genuinely appreciative that we came back. The entire staff operates like a well-oiled team, with hospitality that feels intentional rather than performative. It's been a good while since I experienced an owner manager stop by every table to check in. A gesture from better dining times. Now, the food. We ordered: * Stuffed Shrimp with crab meat * Sausage bombs * Prime rib * A tomahawk ribeye to split I don't know if Harvey John's is officially farm-to-table, but the steak tasted incredibly clean--like actual beef. As a native New Yorker living in Los Angeles, I've eaten at many top-tier steakhouses--BOA, Ruth's Chris, Musso & Frank, Nick & Stef's, Steak 48--and I can confidently say this tomahawk was more flavorful and tasted fresher than all of them. Who knew a small-town North Carolina steakhouse would deliver a truly high-end experience? I'm no chef, but I do have a refined palate, and this meal was memorable. Honestly? If Michelin ever looks this way, they should take note. It's comforting to know you can leave one of the biggest food cities in the world and still find a steakhouse worthy of becoming a new regular favorite. Pro tip: Make a reservation--just to be safe. Cheers to Harvey John's.

Portion sizes have gotten noticeably smaller, the food was undercooked, and everything looked like it was thrown together without any care.

A Clayton staple! So glad I live close by!…read more Clayton Steakhouse is nestled in the heart of Downtown Clayton, right on Main Street. There's parking on the street nearby, as well as a couple of parking lots available nearby as well. I know Downtown Clayton has started putting up some signs for paid parking, so just pay attention when parking. That being said, there are plenty of options for parking. I've been numerous times for lunch and dinner and always enjoy my visits. The staff is friendly and definitely fits the small-town/family vibe of Downtown Clayton. The restaurant is small, but still a great size, and never too packed. I love the simplicity of the menu. There are good options, but it's not too much or overkill. Although they are a steakhouse, there are quite a few other great options if you don't eat steak or want something. The steaks are always cooked well and correctly with lots of flavor. I love a good salad bar, and there are many times I've gone for a solo lunch just for the salad bar. It's not a huge salad bar, but there are great topping options, and it's always fresh, which I love. During lunch, they also have options for made-to-order cold sandwiches and wraps. You can choose your bread/wrap, meat, cheese, and toppings. I love Clayton Steakhouse and highly recommend. The prices are also great for the quality of food as well.

We walked in with a party of 6 and were seated right away. Our waitress was so friendly and we ordered pretty quickly. Once we ordered we started at their salad bar. It had lots of options on it, very clean. I got a 9 oz sirloin and a sweet potato. The sweet potato was amazing. And the steak was good too! It was slightly overcooked but still just fine for me. I used their house made horseradish sauce with it. Easily one of the best meals. When it was time for dessert our waitress came out with a tray of homemade desserts and there were TONS of options on it-- carrot cake, triple chocolate cake, chocolate chess pie, key lime pie, berry cheesecake, and a few others. We tried the key lime pie and the chocolate chess pie. The chocolate chess pie was AMAZING. I loved it. The owner makes the desserts handmade. It's a must try in downtown Clayton!

GM Bryan was so helpful in setting up a pre fixe menu for my large party & ensuring I could stay within a certain amount per person. Strict compliance meal limits of ~$170/pp and we came well under that! It was such a treat. The shareable apps were the duck meatballs & yeast rolls, and they were tasty! Maybe could have been more airy rolls but none were remaining on the table so all good. Some of us got salads in lieu of desserts, and the Caesar was great but different, a little too citrusy but nice/light/crunchy so I still really liked it. The stars of the show were the entrees & sides!! I chose the 6oz filet mignon & it was the highlight, cooked perfectly rare & needed zero sauce. Others chose either the scallops &/or seared halibut, and they loved them too. The shareable sides were honey glazed carrots, potato puree & mushroom bread pudding. They were all great, but the mushroom bread pudding was so unique; kinda like a stuffing with mushroom gravy but not overbearing & even the non-mushroom lovers liked it. The desserts were either tiramisu or Videri chocolate cake- and they could have been half portions & we woulda been happy! The chocolate cake was decadent. All in all, highly recommended for a business meal, they really did a great job catering to our specific needs & showcased their best dishes, imho. Service was great too, thanks Alan!!
