When I say that I probably have 5 lb of pasta on my plate, I am not lying or exaggerating. The meatballs takes like a mix of veal or pork and beef - delicious. Meaty but not heavy. The pasta sauce was a little spicy but nothing mouth scorching. Again delicious. My friends got the grilled tilapia and there's probably three very large pieces of tilapia served with a lemon wedge and another side of angel hair pasta, again at least a pound of pasta in the side. They had the French onion soup, a hearty very beefy based soup with a giant slab of cheese on the top. My friends loved it. My other friends had the pork cutlet which was a hammered piece of pork lightly fried, and the size of a dinner plate served with a side of beef gravy, and also a side of angel hair pasta. Portions are ridiculous and I'm from the south I know huge portions. Lol If you come here though don't come in a hurry, as the staff is very busy. I didn't get her name but she was the only one working the floor. Efficient, direct and friendly. If you leave hungry it is your fault. Enjoy!

Really would like to see this place succeed, though, as we need something different. Chef is reasonably good, waitress friendly, but someone, a manager or someone is botching. First - was there when one other couple was, another wanted to eat, but were turned away as they didn't have a reservation. I think if that were me, I wouldn't return. Second, just last night I went for what was my 5th visit in as many months. My entree - confit chicken - was a good effort, but missed. Wasn't that which would keep me away. I had two glasses of Riesling during the course of the evening. First - $8.50 a shot for each glass of Barefoot Riesling. I effectively pay for the bottle. Bill comes. 3 glasses. Everyone at the table agrees, they had 3 drinks, but I only had 2. Waitress is informed and says she'll take care of it. She is forced to return to the table bearing the 1.5 liter bottle of wine to tell me they opened it just for me (which explains why the featured wine was room temp at best - not chilled) and 3 glasses are missing. We dispute it (I mean, after all - part of what was missing was the wine at the neck and shoulder) and after maybe 15 min. they do grudgingly take care of it. On a previous visit, after I wrote my initial review and was hoping the restaurant would make a go of it, everything, while having a good flavor, was way over salted. We wonder if perhaps the chef who made such good things as squash risotto, has left? Sorry - it's things like that which will keep people away. I know it will be a long time before I go back. And I've talked to others who have had similar experiences recently

Most of the food we had was good or very good. Our server was very nice and provided great service. She even handled the issue that makes this a 3 Star Review very well. The Manager did too. But if you're a respected chophouse, you can't get a steak wrong three times in a row. Frogtown offers a signature mixed grill experience that has a 16 ounce strip, a lobster tail, a crab cake, a few sides (whipped potatoes, long strips of carrots and delicious garlicky mushrooms). It's over $100, but really a pretty good value with all you get. My wife and I decided to split this. I ordered the steak medium rare, which is important to the review. The lobster tail was very good. The crab cake was meaty and good. The carrots were a highlight. The whipped potatoes were good. As was the creamed spinach the table shared. The calamari app (which was a bit heavy on the batter) and burrata app (needed more tomatoes) were both decent. The strip steak was the issue. As our server delivered the plate, she said "when you get a chance, could you cut the steak open and make sure it's done to your liking." I've never had a server in a nice steak restaurant ask me to do this before. It's not a good look. They should already know. I assumed she was concerned it was undercooked. I pressed my knife against the steak. Because I grill steaks, I knew that it was medium well or well done. I said "well, I can tell it's not underdone." I cut the steak down the middle. And it was medium well or well done. I very, very rarely send food back. But at a respected chop house, and at that price, I sent it back. And frankly, it wasn't a big deal at that stage because we had plenty of other food. A manager came out with a new steak. She apologized. Again, I was asked to cut it open. I pressed my knife against the new steak. I knew even before I cut it, because the steak squished as I pressed it. This time -- it wasn't even rare yet. So I had to send it back again. The steak came back. I cut it down the middle of one of the halves. It was a little more done, but it was on the borderline of being rare and undercooked still. I wasn't going to send the steak back a third time. So I ate the parts closest to the ends and sides. The steak was too chewy and underseasoned. I don't know what was going on. Maybe a regular chef was out and an inexperienced person had to step up. In any event, if you're famous for your steaks, you can't have those kinds of misses. Also, the plating of this experience could use a fresh look. Everything was put on the same plate and it was really crowded. 3 Stars

That said, my first impression of this place was "dirty." We sat at the bar, and there were approximately a dozen stools with 3 customers seated. The bar top was full of crumbs. Looking behind the bar was disgusting with what appears to be oil/dirt build up on the refrigeration units. The bartender handed us menus that were sticky, and pages were sticky together. Desperate for something to eat where everything around us was closed, I walked back to the restrooms, which were surprisingly cleaner than the bar. There was also a young man cleaning tables and floors in the restaurant. I thought for a moment it would be ok. We went ahead and ordered a couple of items. Beer was cold and didn't appear to be floaters. The lemon in my wife's drink looked ok too. Then from our angle at bar, we could see into the kitchen where the floor was littered with food, paper, etc. This made us uneasy. Food came out, my burger appeared to be a pre frozen patty, and overcooked. The rest was ehh. But seeing and experiencing the filth prejudiced anything we would do from then on. Finally, our server while attentive and quick to get our order in and delivered, should be doing a better job keeping her immediate area clean. We will not return.

With a history of being in business for more than 60 years and maintaining the same level of consistency and quality, this establishment truly deserves our business. Whitney was my waitress, and she took excellent care of me. Everything on the menu seemed so enticing that I had to request her assistance. The ambiance of the restaurant can be described as a cozy vibe, as it's dimly lit and gives off a warm, inviting aura. The music played in the background adds to the overall atmosphere, further enhancing the dining experience. Don't let me forget the friendly and cheerful people who frequently attend here. They add to the jovial atmosphere of the place. Now, let's talk about the food. The flavors of the dishes served here are simply delightful. The quality of ingredients used is evident in every bite, and the dishes are prepared with great care and attention to detail. From savory to sweet, the menu offers a diverse range of options that cater to all palates. The dishes are presented beautifully, making for an aesthetically pleasing experience as well. Overall, this restaurant (combined with Whitney's customer service), is the place for those looking for a memorable dining experience.
