8. Shaw's Steak House & Tavern

Horrible!!!! Though we have been to Shaw's before and enjoyed it, I will never go there again!!! Valentine's Day we had reservations at 7:00 p.m. When we arrived just before 7:00 there was a bottleneck in the entry. People with reservations for 5:30 were still waiting - they were not honoring reservations at all. The hostess said reservations were just so the staff knew how many people to expect - no guarantee of seating. The manager wouldn't come out - but when he finally did he basically scolded us for whining. Don't go to Shaw's with a large group or if you think you can get a reservation because you can't!

best ribeye i have ever eaten.this is a great place.

Originally from Chicago, where you can only get great steaks, my family tried Shaw's at the recommendation of the employees at our hotel. It was definitely a very filling meal, but they seemed very overwhelmed by our large family (10) gathering. We were told we would be served no problem, but our 10 minute table took almost 40 minutes to set up. The staff kept reassuring us it would only be a few more minutes each time someone inquired. We were assigned one waitress at the beginning, who mysteriously disappeared for the rest of the night, with two different ones replacing her. Somehow, our the orders from the two pushed together tables got separated and we had one table served 15 minutes after the other. It was very slow in the rest of the restaurant, but we still had subpar service. Overall, the food was pretty good, and there certainly was a lot of it! But do not attempt a large party here...very unprepared.
