    Not as good as a few weeks back. Food is still solid, although it's odd that coffee is made by the bar. And they were clearly short-staffed. May pause on going back for a little while.

    Our family in Harrisonburg has raved about the Local Chop & Grill House for years and we finally got to learn why. What a lovely place for a special Christmas meal and what incredible food. Everyone had ribeyes and all were almost fork tender and perfectly cooked to our requested medium rare. The trio of roasted mushrooms were a tasty addition to my steak. The chevre mac 'n cheese was luscious, as were the duck fries. Several diners relished seasonal cocktails and we all loved the salted caramel creme brulee. We were tucked in a cozy alcove and our meal was not hurried. Our server was very good though a local missed the personal touches offered by previous staff. This is a wonderful restaurant for a special meal and I will happily return.

    Great food. Very very very delicious! Real food that feeds the soul. Service is great as well. Attention to detail and good ability to to serve courses in order and when table is ready. Small recommendations would be to fry foods in lard/tallow as opposed to seed oils. And as I age--I find the bar top tables and chairs to be uncomfortable; but there are lower chairs available--you may want to request them if bar top seating is uncomfortable. I never like paying fine dining prices and then being seated at a bar height table-but for this restaurant-- the food is so good I go with the seating flow! Highly recommend!
