It was very savory and the sweetness of the sweet potato fries brought it all together. I also the thought the waffle fry shape was a nice touch. The breakfast gnocchi was good, but not my fav. I found it a little too tangy. My friends enjoyed the adult tropical slushee. It's a bummer to read the negative reviews and I hope those downfalls are fixed. I'm thankful I've only had good experiences because when it's good, it's really good!

Time. That doesn't even cover how wonderful the staff there is! Just really great people who are keeping it real. No parties larger than 6, this is a hard rule and needs to be respected. I have seen people argue with the owner. It's a small place and he values his staff so much that he will not opt for income over his staff's mental health or stress level. I admire that so much. All the more reason to take your close friend and enjoy a real down to earth local business!!!

It's a really cozy moody interior, with *no big lights* aka great low lighting and comfy seating options. When we went, there were just a few other parties there so pretty quiet. I liked that we had a whole corner to ourselves with a sectional couch of sorts and some chairs. They close at 10pm on a Friday night, which felt absurdly early for a cocktail bar. But, we were able to order and drink one drink during the ~45 minutes we had. They closed up shop promptly at 10pm. They had a classics and a "rumors" section of the menu. I didn't think the signature drinks were overly unique, with classics like Paper Plane making that menu side. I had a pomegranate mojito which was good! Consensus was that the cocktails were good not exceptional, especially for the $16-17 price point. We ordered churros for the table which were a table favorite! I wouldn't go out of my way to come here again, but we enjoyed our time and could see this being a good option if you lived in the neighborhood and don't mind the early close hours.

The Pimms Cup was good but the Rum punch was just OK. The menu had many tempting choices. We got some apps - the cheese curds were very good. The fried pickles were not my favorite. I ordered their porketta sandwich with bourbon sauce and it was excellent. It was not a traditional preparation but an even better version. Very juicy - I loved it. My wife got the pepparoni flatbread which was good but nothing special. Overall the group was very satisfied with our experience.

They must change the menu because we were here last year (Feb 2025) and not much on the menu appealed to me. But this year they were lots of things I wanted to try. I'm late in posting my review. But I do remember that I split entrees with another. We split the BBQ Brisket Melt and the Oklahoma Smashburger. We both prefer the BBQ Melt over the burger. It had more flavor and texture. It's always good food and service. And I'm sure we'll go again next year after our Annual Seminar.

If you're looking for a relaxed dinner, this probably isn't the place. The food was also underwhelming. Nothing tasted bad, but nothing stood out either, especially considering the prices. It felt like paying premium restaurant prices for food that's comparable to what you'd expect from a chain restaurant like Applebee's or Chili's. Overall, Steele & Hops seems to charge for a higher-end experience, but the food and atmosphere didn't justify the cost for me. There are better local options if you're looking for quality and value.

That's decent food. We went shopping across the road and I think within 15 minutes got a text our table was ready. So that was a pleasant surprise. The ambience was great. This is a clean classy place. It looked expensive but I was.... I mean my WIFE was all in and Happy Wife, Happy Life so yeah..... we're going for it. Service was well.... it was over the top. The wait staff and others all chipped in to watch the tables. Different people filled our water, brought us more bread, brought out food out when it was ready, picked up our dishes. It was a TEAM effort and it showed. Service was outstanding. My wife ordered the Salmon Sofia. Not sure what that is exactly and I don't care. It's salmon. To me, it's gonna taste bad no matter how great you prepare it but she said she loved it and would definitely get it again. I had the Italian Pasta if I remember correctly. Slightly spicy cajun pasta with sausage, chicken, shrimp, peppers and onions. It was amazing! There was quite a bit of it in the bowl. My wife says, "Wow, that's a lot. You'll have some to take home!" But I'm no quitter. If the food is good, i'm finishing it. And i'm happy to report that i did finish it. It was really good. I did not however get to try the mountain sized carrot cake. I really wanted some of that but I was too full. Oh, the bread. The bread was not warm and it was different than what i thought, but by the time i finished my 7th piece, I really liked it. All in all this was a very nice meal, perfect for a date night.
