Schlesinger’s Steakhouse delivered an exceptional dining experience worthy of a 5 out of 5 star rating. Our server, Rae, made the evening memorable and offered recommendations on menu items and spirits; she was fantastic. Our food was seasoned and cooked to perfection with mouthwatering flavor in every bite. Thanks Schlesinger’s Chop House for making our evening truly magnificent.

I took my parents here for lunch on a Saturday. The atmosphere was truly fine dining, quiet, peaceful and beautiful. The service was great and professional. The food was delicious even down to their basic caesar salad. I can't afford to come here for a dinner but the lunch was perfect.

I love coming here with my boyfriend. They have the best steaks ever, and are courteous to check your steak with a flash light to make sure it’s cooked for your liking, lots of flavor. Nice upscale atmosphere. I highly recommend!

The food was very enjoyable. The area we were seated in allowed easy conversation for our party of five. Our waiter was pleasant and knowledgeable, with a good attitude and a ready smile. My only complaint was that it took over an hour to get our meals to the table.

Excellent steak, excellent take-out experience. Everything was well packed, and a generous selection of delicious bread was included!

Attended a birthday party with family and friends of the family. Our waiter, Preston, was absolutely superb. He was quite helpful with his recommendations. He was always there when needed but did not hover. He took excellent pictures for us. A couple of us had the broiled Haddock. One had the Seafood Trio. The other four had steaks of various cuts and doneness. Everything was perfectly cooked.

I went for their lunch buffet. It was great! The atmosphere was elegant, yet cozy. The brunch was self-serve, with omelets made-to-order (brought to the table by the server). Breakfast options, lunch options, dessert options. I added a tiny portion of almost every item, just to sample them. I just wish they had offered more turkey & other meat options, as I do not eat pork. The food arrangement was well done. This place itself and the staff (Hannah and Sam) made us feel special.
