A follow up review for 2026, Theme is the menu: It is dangerously simple menu and the sides are dangerously amazing. The sides are so rich and delicious they could easily steel the show, even the drink menu is top tier. Now let's talk steaks. They keep the basics on the menu but they always have a few non menu cuts of local and aged steaks if you get there early. They know their way around the primal and their steaks steal the show. They are perfectly selected, aged, cooked and served. They take their place as the center of the meal. An amazing top tier steak dinner in Leavenworth, Washington State. read more

No frills, no fluff -- just straight to the point: great food. Local, fresh beef with specialty cuts done right. No gimmicks, no fancy presentation, just pure quality. Definitely five stars for the beef. I tried the beef tartare, and while the quality of the meat was excellent, the rice and seaweed pairing didn't quite fit. Give me some toasted sourdough and mustard instead, and it'd be perfect. read more

All around great meal. The scallops were so tasty we ordered a second round. Best old fashioned I've had in years.

Had a celebration dinner there yesterday evening. The romaine salad was fantastic! Steak was excellent I had a filet and he had a chateaubriand, both really tasty. Nice pepper seasoning and seared perfectly. Had three sides for two people and after a big day hiking, finished them all. Super fun cocktail menu made me try one, which is not my usual thing. Service was thoughtful and gave great suggestions. The location is a bit of a hole in the wall. I know it's going for a speakeasy vibe, but it came across a bit under-finished. All in all a good experience and the food and drinks were what made it for me. read more

Old World Chophouse - Drinks menu - SO FUN! - New American Near Me - Leavenworth, Washington

The ambiance here is cozy and intimate in a dimly lit room. It was an amazing reprieve from the cold outside. Staff was friendly although there was a blonde girl that was set on clearing out our plates really soon, before we were even done, which is the reason for 4 stars and not 5. I ordered beef stew which was great , my daughter ordered shrimp linguine, which was also delicious but does include capers ( which isn't listed in the menu description). To start, we ordered the sourdough with herb butter which was also very good. Overall, this is a great spot with vibes and good food. I didn't have a cocktail here so I can't touch on that. read more

The ambience is cozy, intimate, and warm! Great spot for steak lovers, all their steak is prime, ordered locally, and cut in house. My fiancé ordered the rib eye and I ordered the braised beef served over yummy whipped potatoes. We also ordered the cavier and roasted rainbow carrots. For my mezcal lovers, highly recommend their kardarde cocktail. Overall, great food quality and cozy spot for a nice dinner experience while visiting Leavenworth. read more

My boyfriend and I went to this restaurant our last evening in Leavenworth. The restaurant has a very dark, cozy, romantic vibe that was perfect for a date night. We ordered drinks and they were phenomenal. My boyfriend ordered the sourdough bread appetizer and it was to die for. We decided for entrees we'd each get a filet and share the shrimp scampi. I wish I had gotten the shrimp scampi for myself... it was INCREDIBLE. The flavors of the filets were good, however, they came out cold. When we asked for them to be reheated, they came back out the same temperature. This is why 4/5 stars. The flavor is there, just I can't bring myself to give this place a perfect 5. read more

The ambiance is romantic and dark. The food was so good!! Only downside is we went in wanting the pork chop and it wasn't available. My husband and I both got the ribeye! Both were cooked perfectly!! The mushroom side was good. The stew and mash potato's are amazing!! Our server Sage was kind and helpful! read more

We finally understood why nobody would posts recent reviews for this place. The whole experience is screaming CHEAP.. except the bill. 500$. The party of 3 and a child. We were suggested family style " experience" by the waiter Emma, That means: no one can order their own plate (unless they want to pay $119+ for individual steak) The whole table needs to agree on everything. The food is very plain....they give you flavored butter for exactly pieces of the bread by the guest. 4 people 4 pieces of bread., No plain butter, just flavored with sauce.... no exceptions no excuses like a detention center. The steak was ok .....not seasoned well but put on the grill. Our overall experience is I cook better grill and more gracious experience than Old World Chop!!! Don't waste your money there! read more

I wish I could have solidified my last rating but the Old World Chophouse could not compete with itself of 7 months ago. Something happened along the way and I'm willing to bet my life savings that it's no longer the same chef. It started with the apple bacon salad which had pork belly instead and apples that didn't measure up to what Washington State has to offer. But I didn't let that deter me, hoping for the same ribeye bliss I had the last time. It's just that the 16 oz 'ribeye' wasn't a ribeye but a New York steak no doubt. And when I pointed that out I was told some smoke screen story about "steak continuum" that didn't fool me. It was also overcooked for medium, which I would have never ordered had I known. This is kind of a big deal. Mismanagement galore in the name of cost cutting, seen it before and such dire measures always had the same inevitable outcome; I'm not sure if they still break even with mostly empty booths on a Saturday night, but my feeling is they won't be here much longer, mark my word. Oh yeah, the ambiance was very nice, like I remember, wooden booths and cozy. I just wish it were easier to find to benefit from some foot traffic. read more

This place is AMAZING. 100% worth it. The filet mignon was to die for, most delicious steak I've ever had! The mashed potato's were fantastic, and so was their bread. My partner had the beef tartare, and he said it was deliciously fresh and creamy. I definitely recommend! read more

We had dinner here while on our annual Christmas trip to Leavenworth and overall thought it was pretty good. It's located on the main street in downtown right across from the park with all the lights. We made reservations and got seated right away when we arrived. It's a pretty small place with some bar seating and booths tucked in here and there. The rustic wood and low lighting give it a great ambiance. Our server was nice and helpful and everything gluten free was labeled on the menu making selections easy. We decided to start with the side of pork belly which did not disappoint. It was delicious. We'd been snacking all day so we shared a filet and potatoes. The temp was spot on for the steak and the potatoes were nicely seasoned. The only thing we didn't like were our drinks. They only have a couple choices of wine by the glass and it only has the type, not the name or brand of the vineyard so you aren't sure what you're getting. The cab was not very good and my husband had a cranberry fizz cocktail he didn't like. They have lots of by the bottle choices if you want to go that route tho. Overall food and service were both solid and I could see us returning during next year's trip. read more

We had a dinner yesterday and it was amazing. Halibut was so creamy and delicious and paired well with dry Riesling. So so good! Place was very clean and service was excellent. read more

Everything we had was delish! They have a great selection of different cut. We had 7oz crown and it was the best I ever had! Literally melts in your mouth. Salad is very refreshing and Brussels sprouts stole the day with tangy kimchi sauce and crispy thick pork belly! Service was very warming and very intimate inside. read more

I've yet to actually have any of the food here, which is unfortunate because I hear it is good. I can say for certain though, the drinks are very good which have made up my visits here. I've had some Ale's like the Orval Trappist Ale, a bit bitter but full of flavor to the cocktails like the Bourbon Derby which made for a great sipper into the night. Even got to try a swig of a flan infused beer one of the staff wanted to try out. We'd have some desserts each visit. The chocolate custard is really good, strawberry was alright, not really my flavor but did have a nice consistent texture. There was also a lemon creme dessert with a heavy essence from the lemon peels was nice too for a more fruity and fragrant flavor. The layout in Old World, looks like Old World and it's awesome. Big thick wood booths that are sturdy and nothing seems to be too close together like other restaurants. The drinks are great here as mentioned as is the staff who of course make the drinks, but are very friendly and personable which is always wonderful. Maybe one day I'll come in for more than just drinks, but with so many places closing early, Old World Pub makes for a later night drink spot in the area easy. read more

Steak was good. But the sides (romero salad and old world stew) were basically inedible. They each had a very strange taste- the stew was sour(?) and the salad was indescribably bad. read more

The steaks here are phenomenal - we ordered three different cuts to share and each was cooked perfectly. I highly recommend reading the temperature guide on the menu to make sure you order exactly how you like it. Service was fine, though a bit minimal. We tried the bread and truffle butter. The bread was good, and while I understand the butter had truffles, $15 still felt like a stretch for the price. Steak pricing is fair, especially given the quality. read more

Kind of a dark hole in the wall. We weren't too sure when we walked in, but the reviews were good so we kept an open mind. We asked our waitress about some of the steak options from the menu when she brought our waters. She was nice enough to hold the last 19 oz steak for us while we figured out our sides, then we heard her sell the steak to the people behind us. We ended up with a smaller steak, oh well. After taking our order she asked if we wanted some bread / butter and we said sure. Turns out it was $15 for 4 slices of bread and some butter. The steak and sides were pretty good. The service was disappointing. read more

There is no exaggeration in what I'm about to post--this was the best meal I've had in years (yes--plural). My husband had the filet--so soft. I had the pork chop farmhouse style--chef's kiss (literally). The crust was incredible. We shared the potatoes and carrots which were also delicious. The service was top notch too. We felt really welcome and our server took the time to explain different options for us. I will be back my next Leavenworth trip. read more

Everything we had was extremely well done, including the pork chop. Great quiet ambiance. And the waitress was friendly and attentive. Also appreciated that we were able to still get a reservation only about an hour before our dinner time. read more

I give this place four stars. It would be five stars if they had a burger option at dinner (for the locals) and carried some of their lunch items into the dinner hour (see below) . The bartender and the service is great. My buddy Scott created the menu and the items and set up the meat purveyor. I ordered the salad and bread one night with a couple of beers and the other night I had the filet (the menu says fillet, but who's counting) :) mashed potatoes and Brussel sprouts. I only have a couple of issues with this place and I hope they address them because if they did this place would be super great, up from just merely great. 1. They need a burger on the menu. Not everyone can afford a 40-50 dollar piece of meat A la carte, every night. If you like this place, the atmosphere, etc. your only choice if you want to eat something substantial is a prime cut of meat. They also need to maintain some of their lunch menu sandwiches into dinner, especially on the weekdays when town is slow and locals come dine. I know they have limited seating space and if they are looking at "per table revenue" I can see why they do what they do but I think they could pack the place and expand into an enclosed heated outdoor area by doing this. 2. I think they need more vegetable sides and salad options on the menu. They only have one salad offering (and if you don't like vinaigrette with pears you're in a bit of trouble). 3. They had my favorite beer but only in cans. Drinking cans of beer is for floating the river. If they have bottles or a small keg that would be so much better. I just don't like canned beer. Probably just me. Otherwise the food is great, the steak was delicious, their bread is outstanding, the bar is warm and inviting, the tables aren't refined or anything (in fact the restaurant looks exactly like my uncles paneled basement bar that he built himself, it was very cool, but it's not representative of the fine dining vibe they have going on there but totally serviceable) and relative to every other restaurant in town trying to do fine dining they are by far the best. Based on how good their meat supplier is I bet they'd have one hell of a burger. Bring it on. read more

Food is really really good, I've never had peas and carrots that were the star of a meal and this place delivered that. The steak was also amazing. Service was great, definitely stop in or make a reservation. read more

If you want an over priced steak undercooked, twice, this is your spot. We ordered two Ribeyes and a New York strip for our son. The New York was cooked perfectly. The two ribeyes were bloody when we cut them open. My wife and asked for medium. Their solution to this was to take them and put them on the grill again. When they came back they were still bloody. We were so hungry we ate what we could. They did comp one steak, but they really should of comped both. Since they weren't cooked as we requested. It's a steak house, how do you mess this up?!?! Also, the waitress said "oh yeah, this happens all the time..." what?!? That's not good. read more

Not a basic chain restaurant! We loved the atmosphere, much like McMenamins in Oregon, but the food and cocktails rival Napa Valley restaurants! We started with a citrus salad with fennel and blood orange, along with other fresh and unique vegetables. Husband then had the filet medium well while mine was the Chateaubriand medium rare, both perfectly seasoned & prepared, mine was so tender I barely needed a steak knife. Side dish of smoked carrot & roast potatoes with a mouth watering black garlic & butter sauce on the side. We finished with the Tamarind parfait, as you can see from the picture deconstructed. The flavors mixed together were amazing! My husband is incredibly picky, but enjoyed every dish served. A couple of items I need to disclose, don't expect the menu to be the same as you see online we didn't see pork chops, but the steak options were greatly expanded. Another item that cannot be helped is the acoustics of the restaurant, I am hard of hearing and really struggled to hear my server. Finally, our server was amazing and attentive. She was knowledgeable of all the items on the menu and the wine & cocktails. We are so glad we stopped by! read more

Old World Chophouse - Tamarind Parfait, simply brilliant! - New American Near Me - Leavenworth, Washington

This is definitely a place you have to visit if you need a fancy dinner to go to in Leavenworth. The interior of this restaurant was very intimate and cozy. It was dimly lit with lavish decorations. I loved the blackboard they had near the kitchen which showcased the cuts of meat they still had available. The tables had a sense of privacy with the spacious booths and distance between the tables. The staff were incredibly polite and knowledgeable about the menu, helping us navigate the menu with ease. The food on the other hand was amazing. Everything had such great flavor and presentation, we ate everything. If you're up for something new, definitely try the beef tartare. It's one of the best I've had. read more

A must! Make a reservation! You can go casual or dress up a little for date night. Food was so good and good portions. We left stuffed. The service was wonderful ~ we were checked on by the chef even. Everything on the menue is a-la-cart. It was a little chilly in the restaurant but just about as perfect and great tasting food as you could want ! read more

Hostess and server were knowledgeable, checked on us repeatedly and helped with the food allergy at the table. Food was lovely, a bit high priced but it's a tourist destination. Best dirty Martini maybe ever, their homemade brine was amazing. Filets were cooked to perfection, warm winter salad was lovely. Thank you for having a wonderful non steak alternative on the menu- the shrimp scampi with homemade noodles was lovely. The music was kinda weird, needed more of the fancy steakhouse vibe. read more

An old school looking place that surprisingly serve very innovative dishes and drinks! There were Cioppino, Mushroom Gnnochi (so much mushroom), Baked Ricotta, and Roasted Duck. Every dish was carefully crafted and tasted amazing. Service was on the slow side so be prepared to spend a longer (happy) time there. read more

Birthday dinner at Old World during a weekend getaway trip the weekend after Thanksgiving. The ribeye was honestly the best steak I have ever had at a restaurant! It was seasoned and cooked perfectly. I love to cook and can cook a mean steak, but this was the first time I felt it was better than what I can do at home. Definitely recommend and we will be back! The bartender was our waiter and he was fantastic, knowledgeable, and attentive. The setting of the restaurant is very relaxed and the lighting is warm. read more

We had a wonderful dinner experience at Old World Pub. I love the ambiance, the menu selection, and we had delicious cocktails. The steaks are cut fresh daily, and priced at reasonable market rates. We split the ribeye, green beans, and risotto between two with no problem. I'll definitely be back! read more

This joint is fantastic! I never EVER leave reviews but I want the community/visitors to know how excellent the Old World Pub is! My fiancé and I came to town last week to celebrate our anniversary on a whim. With no real plans for our trip to Leavenworth, we snagged an open table on a Tuesday night (as we are service industry folks ourselves) and WOW! I couldn't believe the quality of the dinner we were provided. He ordered the 16 oz ribeye, and I, the 8 oz filet. Both cooked to a perfect med rare! We also shared a side of mashed potatoes. The Chef (I regretfully forget his name) paired a beer and scotch with our meal after coming to our table and speaking with us! All around, each member of the staff was phenomenal from start to finish. I highly recommend this establishment and haven't stopped talking about it all week. It was an incredible experience and we will be back soon! read more

This place is absolutely amazing. We came for a bachelorette party pretty close to closing and the staff was excellent at accommodating a bigger group at the last minute. Granted it might not always be this way, but it worked out for us thank goodness! I'm not sure if they do reservations but maybe call ahead to check so you can get a seat at this awesome spot. They totally made our night with the friendly service and delicious food. They have really fun choices for cocktails and everything we had was delicious. I tried the Pecorino Pasta which was scrumptious and one of my girlfriends ordered the halibut which was so delicate it melted in your mouth. I would definitely suggest the halibut. We ordered some sides of asparagus and Brussels Sprouts which were both welcomed pairings. I would say the Brussels were my favorite if I had to pick one. I tried my friend's filet as well and it was perfectly cooked. We can't thank the staff enough for making our night. Check this place out for the fancy ambiance, delicious food, and crafty cocktails. You really can't go wrong. read more

The best restaurant in Levon worth!! With the best atmosphere. Great food and healthy too!

We stopped in to Old World to grab a drink and an appetizer before dinner, we sat at the bar and it's super cool in there - it has a speakeasy vibe. We got a couple of their specialty cocktails and the shrimp cocktail appetizer. The first one we got came out raw, and our server/bartender immediately made it right and got us a new one and it was fantastic! We plan to go back and have a full meal there next time we are in town. read more

The bone in ribeye was seasoned and cooked perfectly with a mouthwatering taste. The service was appropriately attentive. Highly recommended read more

The halibut is the best I've ever had -- It literally melted in my mouth! The steak prices are pricey but they sounded amazing even though I'm not much of a red meat eater. The price for the halibut was reasonable, especially for the amount you got and the phenomenal flavor. It's an al a cart menu so you will pay more but to us it was worth it. In addition to the halibut we had the bread plate, a salad and the cauliflower. All were good but the halibut was an A+++ read more

HANDS DOWN THE BEST BURGER you'll ever eat. Great little place with excellent service, a great menu and fantastic food. My apologies for the lack of picture-we lost our minds when the food came out. The "Mac and cheese", that is ricotta gnocchi with pork belly is sooo good. But, yeah, that brisket blend pub burger will knock your socks off. Don't hesitate. read more

Had a great dinner here tonight. Given the other reviews, I was expecting the food to be good and it didn't disappoint. My husband and I each had the filet (6 oz med rare for me; 7 oz med for my husband) and they were cooked perfectly. We also had the mashed potatoes and the bread & butter appetizer. I also had a glass of very nice cabernet. Service was also great. We expected the bill to be in excess of $200 and were pleasantly surprised to be handed a check for $150. I would definitely recommend this place to Antoine looking for a good steak dinner. read more
