TLDR: Will's Chophouse is phenomenal! Run, don't walk! Make a reservation immediately! Your tastebuds will thank you! One night, we were driving around trying to figure out where to go for dinner and we happened upon Will's Chophouse. It had been on my Yelp List of places to try for a while, but it was getting pretty late and we weren't sure they'd be open. I gave them a call to ask what time they closed and they told me. At the time of the call, we were about 40-ish minutes prior to closing, so I said- oh oh, we'll try again another time, but the gentleman on the phone asked how far away we were. Luckily, we were just across the street in the parking lot trying to figure out what we'd have for dinner and he said to come on over. I asked if he was sure and he said- yes, no problem- so we drove over and parked. I thought that was really cool of him, so we darted over and went in quickly. First off, I have to save that I absolutely love the aesthetic of Will's Chophouse, inside and out. I love the front door. I love the host stand area. I love the seating. The vibe of this place is working on me 100%. I just wish I had dressed up a bit to fit in better with the aesthetic. The hostess asked if we had a reservation and of course we didn't. I told her about the call and she cheerfully welcomed and seated us. Shortly thereafter, the waitress came to greet us and take our drink order. As this had been our first visit, it took a few minutes to figure out what we wanted to order, and of course, we had questions. The waitress guided us to some excellent options and we placed our order. We started with the Herbed Wagyu Meatballs served with San Marzano Sauce and Parmesan on a small bed of micro greens. They were DELICIOUS! I could've made a meal out of these. They also provided some complimentary bread and butter. It was a nice addition to the meatballs. For my entree, I had the Farm-to-table Wagyu Chop Steak with a loaded baked potato. As a topper on the steak, I added the Hunter Sauce. It's basically a creamy mushroom gravy, similar to the Jäger Sauce you'd have on top of Schnitzel at a German restaurant, but it was much richer and more flavorful than most I've ever had. I asked for my Chop Steak to be cooked well-done, not to be charred or anything, I just wanted there to be no pink. It was cooked to perfection and fork-tender, even though it wasn't well-done. It was cooked enough to work for me. The Chop Steak, accompanied by the Hunter Sauce, were a delightful treat. I am so looking forward to ordering this again on our next visit, assuming I don't give the filet a try. I also wanted to try the Sweet Potato Casserole, so I added a side of that as well. Their A La Carte sides are enormous, so I couldn't finish it, but I was able to get a few bites before it was all said and done. Will's is now one of my favorite places to eat in Springfield. I'm genuinely looking forward to our next visit. The food is exquisite. The staff are so friendly and attentive. The waitress was so kind to my son, who had so much to say. He's a bit of a chatterbox, but it didn't phase her one bit. If you haven't been to Will's Chophouse, YOU ARE MISSING OUT! Make the reservation. Spend the money. It will be well worth it. Highly recommend! read more

Service was great. The atmosphere was fair. The exterior really needs cleaning up and updating. The food was presented well and not bad. We felt for the money it could have been a little better. The owner was very friendly and seemed to care about his guests. read more

Sweet server. Screamingly good wagyu beef. Fantastic rack of lamb. And tons of fun with Quinton Scott's performance. Thank you for a ton of fun on a Saturday night. read more

After waiting 60 minutes for my wife's chicken, we were told they were out of chicken then we were told they were not. Then we were told they were plating it 20 minutes later we got a chicken that was raw on the inside with a piece of cheese melted on top of it absolute terrible experience read more

If I could give this restaurant negative stars, I would. I called on 12/8 and personally made a reservation with Will himself for 12/12 at 7:00 PM for a party of eight to celebrate my graduation. When we arrived and checked in, the host could not find our reservation. I explained that I had spoken directly with Will days earlier, to which she replied, "Well, that's why." Will then approached us and said he would "make it work," asking us to wait at the bar while a table was prepared. We were told it would be about 20 minutes. It ultimately took an hour and fifteen minutes before we were seated. Another party with a 7:00 PM reservation experienced the exact same issue and waited over an hour as well. Once seated, we were relieved to have an excellent server--Ari, who was truly the only positive part of the entire evening. Unfortunately, the rest of the experience continued to go downhill. Appetizers took over an hour to arrive. Multiple drinks listed on the menu were unavailable, including very basic options such as Coors Light, Riesling, and Chianti. About 45 minutes after ordering our meals, we were informed that the kitchen had run out of potatoes, despite six of the eight of us having ordered them. We changed our sides and waited even longer. When our food finally arrived, several steaks were either severely undercooked or overcooked. My filet, ordered medium, arrived rare and was sent back. The replacement came out charred on the outside. My father-in-law also sent his steak back because it was raw. Shockingly, my original steak was then brought back out and served to my father-in-law. This is not only disgusting, but appears to be a serious food-safety violation. By the time we were able to partially finish the meal, over three hours had passed, and several of us could not eat our food at all. The owner eventually came over, apologized, and we asked if this was an experience worth paying for. He ultimately comped our meal. While we appreciated that gesture, it does not excuse the disorganization, poor food quality, lack of basic inventory, or the extremely concerning handling of food. I would never recommend Wills Chophouse to anyone, especially for an important occasion. read more

The food was very good! But please take down that tattered American flag. So disrespectful of our country. Makes me sad every day I drive by it. read more
