I had such a lovely time! It was a great way to seal my birth month! The service was friendly and helpful. I had the old Fashioned and thought it was decent. I opted for the Cabernet Savignon to accompany my dinner. The center cut filet mignon was excellent! The sides are served family style, we chose the roasted potatoes. They were creamy and very tasty. The creme Brulee and Port was a great dessert choice! I will have to come back!

Hap’s Original Steakhouse is a solid choice if you’re looking for an old-school steakhouse vibe. The atmosphere is classic and inviting, perfect for a nostalgic dining experience. While the steaks aren’t extraordinary, they’re definitely satisfying and well-prepared. It’s not the kind of place that will blow you away with innovation, but if you’re in town and craving a hearty, reliable meal, Hap’s delivers. A good spot to enjoy a no-fuss, traditional steakhouse dinner.

Hap's is really popular and for good reason. We went this past Saturday early evening and there was a line starting to form before 5pm when the restaurant opens. Luckily, we were fourth in line. We went and sat at the bar to drink and eat. The bar and bar lounge filled up very fast. The two bartenders Carlos and Eric were both really good! Besides the wine, the dinner that we had was really delicious. We started with French onion soup followed by Prime rib and a side of mashed potatoes, which was huge! All in all, we had a wonderful time and we'll be back.

Delicious food …wonderful customer service… Really love the bread and butter and the veggies they give you complementary definitely a old-school vibe but well worth it.. 9 out of 10 must try again

Did not like the flavor of the BBQ sauce, just my personal opinion. Ribeye was also tough. I have recently had the filet and it was perfect so maybe just a one off on this recent experience. Sides were very good as well as their veggies and dip.

This is an excellent establishment that consistently serves great food and provides excellent service. We ordered the prime rib and a few starters. Prime rib was tender and the jus was delicious. Looking forward to our next meal there.
