    We arrived about 30 mins before our reservation so we lucked out and got the last 2 seats at the bar. Had a very delicious Disaronno Sour and were sat at our table before our drinks were done. Had a very personable waiter, Tim who gave excellent service. You cannot go to a steakhouse and order the chicken. I ordered the New York Strip and my husband got a Tomahawk. Both steaks were cooked to order with broccoli and smashed Yukon Gold potatoes. I also ordered a delicious lobster claw topped cooked in brown butter and drenched over my steak. OMG; if you love steak and haven’t been too this little steakhouse you need to.

    Over the top - excellent - we all had Prime Rib - and everything was wonderful. We chose the side of mushrooms and a loaded baked potato. Carrot cake for dessert. The staff is excellent - attentive and all very nice people. The meal was so good, we have to return again.

    Have been to the BackRoom many times. This was a very disappointing experience. I won’t recommend or go back.

    Was surprisingly pleased with the steak itself. Cooked perfectly, one of the best I’ve ever had. We’ll be back again as this was our first time

    The food was all so tasty and the portion sizes were huge! Don't let the price scare you, you'll have enough for 2-3 meals for each entree.

    Always a pleasure at the Backroom steakhouse. Been eating here since it was a single store boutique steakhouse. All the food was amazing and requested a more private area as I was catching up with an old friend. Everything was geared towards the occasion from the corner booth, non rushed service and always great steaks, better than you will find at the bigger chain steakhouses. Mike the owner always stops by every table to check that everything is up to the high standards that he has always put into his place.

FAQs

Yes, The Back Room Steakhouse is a popular choice for date night thanks to its cozy, supper-club vibe, attentive service, and consistently well-prepared steaks and cocktails. Guests frequently celebrate anniversaries and birthdays here, and the owner often greets tables. Note: it can get lively (live music and a central bar area), so ask for a corner booth or early seating if you want a quieter, more intimate table.

Plan for an early weeknight or an early weekend seating if you want a quieter table. Guests report that Friday and Saturday evenings get lively and louder, while earlier seatings and some weekdays feel calmer. Sundays are popular for the prime rib special, so expect crowds then as well, reservations are recommended.

Warm, neighborhood steakhouse meets lively supper club, inviting and unpretentious. Guests praise attentive service, friendly owner interactions, live performers on some nights, and craft cocktails. Expect a friendly, busy atmosphere rather than hushed fine-dining silence; it can be loud when packed, so request a quiet corner if you want a more intimate meal.

Smart casual, the owner lists the dress code as smart casual, which fits the restaurant’s elevated yet relaxed steakhouse feel. Guests typically dress nicely for special occasions but report a comfortable, neighborhood atmosphere.

Yes, call the restaurant ahead. Guests report that staff and the chef are accommodating with seating requests, birthday notes, dietary needs (chef adjusted for olive oil/butter and severe shellfish allergy), and celebration touches. Because space is limited, calling ahead is the best way to secure a preferred table or discuss allergies and special arrangements.

Yes, families do dine here and guests often celebrate birthdays and family dinners. The menu focuses on steaks and seafood rather than a kids’ menu, and portions can be generous, so sharing works well. If you're visiting with young children, consider an early seating and call ahead about menu flexibility.

Busiest: Friday and Saturday evenings and Sunday prime rib service are commonly busy and lively. Quietest: earlier weekday or early-dinner seatings tend to be calmer. If you prefer a quieter meal, request an early reservation or a corner booth away from the bar.

Midweek or an early-weeknight seating is ideal for a quieter experience, while Sunday is best if you want the popular prime rib special. Weekend nights are lively and perfect for celebrations but expect noise and a fuller dining room, book ahead if you choose Friday or Saturday.

Not specified in the provided hours, call ahead to confirm holiday openings. Guests report special events like New Year’s Eve service in reviews, but official holiday hours are not listed in the restaurant information.
