    This is one of our favorite restaurants and has been for years! You can’t beat the cocktails, they are excellent. The filet mignon is fabulous because of the rub and sear on the outside and it’s extremely tender and juicy on the inside. It was total perfection!! Eric was our server and he made an excellent recommendation for wine as I was struggling a bit on what would go perfectly with our steaks. Their wine list is amazing!! You can’t leave without a piece of the peanut butter pie for dessert and a Godfather to accompany it. The evening was absolutely one to remember!!

    The experience was priceless. It had great ambience and we throughly enjoy ourselves. We were able to try two desserts that were excellent. The chocolate pecan pie is worth trying. Give Five Chophouse a try; you won’t be disappointed.

    The service was great, our server was courteous and he did a great job of checking in on us without being intrusive. Our food was delicious and arrived in a timely manner. One of the seats in our booth was really worn and should be replaced soon. We highly recommend and will definitely be back.
