I was up for a work visit in the area, and my coworker and I decided to have lunch there. Very good food. Presentation was excellent. I was really impressed with the decoration and style of the place, definitely top-notch. We met the owner and he was such a delightful person to meet and talk to.

I ordered the Classic Steak Tartare, Braised Short Ribs and the Berkshire Double Cut Pork Chop. Absolutely delicious. It was just a bit pricey, but the food was absolutely fabulous.

Enjoyed our off night Valentine’s Day dinner at CJ Steakhouse. It was our first time there, although we have been to this location when it was Hot Rod’s BBQ. The food was great, service was friendly and great, and the atmosphere is really, really nice. They have a large wrap around bar so you can get drinks or eat at the bar. They have a large open dinning around as well as a private room to accommodate large groups or for parties. I have heard that CJ Steakhouse is overpriced, and while some of the steaks are quite pricey, there are plenty of options on the menu that are very reasonably priced. The menu also has a fairly large selection so you should be able to find something you like, regardless of your tastes! I briefly spoke with the General Manager who said they have recently opened up for lunches.

We stopped in for Friday cocktails and stayed for dinner. Amazing clams and the Brussel spouts were delicious. We will be back. A refreshing upscale restaurant for wharton

We really enjoyed having dinner at CJ’s. This was our first time visiting and the service and food were amazing. The host Brian welcomed and checked on us throughout the evening. We opted to sit at the bar instead of a table which Marty our bartender provided us with great service. After our food was served (absolutely amazing btw) the chef Dave came out and we expressed how much we enjoyed the meal. I definitely recommend this place to anyone in the area. Excellent food, service, ambiance a NYC restaurant feel but a located close to home.

Such a great meal! Steaks were seasoned and cooked perfectly. Probably one of the best sweet potatoes I’ve ordered anywhere. Must be the thahini butter. Great drinks, great service, and love the ambiance!!

A bit of a mixed bag. I really wanted to love this place, but there are better local options for the money. The steaks were cooked perfectly, both were med rare as ordered. The accompanied sause were meh at best, I had a horseradish sauce for filet, that had no trace of flavor in it. We also ordered a wing app. They were delicious, but again the accompanied sauce had zero flavor and you receive 3 wings for 17 bucks or so. The $18 burger we ordered for my son was ok. The staff was excellent and attentive. I would look elsewhere for a $240 meal ( no liquor)

Six of us went here for the first time for a birthday. The food tasted excellent. However, the service was terribly slow. We even had to wait for menus after being seated. Once we finished our main course (we did not order appetizers) we waited a while to have the table cleared. Only after stacking our plates at the edge of the table and flagging down someone to get our water refilled did they take the plates. We then were stuck waiting to see a dessert menu, which never appeared. When we realized that we had been there for almost 2 and a half hours we finally managed to flag down our server, who apologized and informed us they had some staff call out sick. The staff did seem busy, but they also seemed to lack some efficiency. Having waited so long we asked for the check, and were provided a selection of small desserts on the house, along with an apology. We also ended up waiting to pay, and the server we initially handed the check to seemed to have trouble splitting it between cards.

Second time at CJ Steakhouse and couldn’t be more pleased. We’re big fans of Rails and Stone Water and this restaurant is on par with the quality of food but possibly even better service than the other two.

I am not the one to write reviews. Ever. But if I could give a zero stars I would. But our server Julie was perfect, very attentive, the only reason this place deserves any stars. Our drinks took over 20 minutes to come out in a not very busy atmosphere. The appetizer took over 30 minutes, which was steak tartar. And not very good. Food was all over the place, we almost got served many different tables food. No one knew where food was supposed to go. When our entrees finally came out they were both raw and under seasoned. The vegetables were watery and cold. When we offered our respectful review of the food, the manager/owner was very disrespectful and judgemental of us. Many other tables around us agreed with the quality of food and wait times. They were reasonable enough to comp our meal but we were treated like our opinions were in the wrong, when clearly other tables felt the same way. Server was lovely, everything else needs some serious work. Definitely wont be back unless there’s new management or owners.
