Best Steakhouses in Columbia

Outstanding experience! Our serving host, Brittany, was exceptional. She was attentive, responsive and timely throughout our dining experience. Thanks Brittany for your welcoming hospitality and excellent service.

It was Valentine’s Day so we knew it would be crowded and loud. So we were cool with that. However the food was not up to its usual standards. The lamb chops were under cooked and the sides were luke warm. We didn’t want to send it back but it was just too much going on and we didn’t want to wait too much longer. We love Maestro’s but will probably NEVER go on Valentine’s Day again.

I chose to try this restaurant because its concept reminded me of a restaurant I'd had lunch in over 40 years ago in Paris. The menu was simple and straightforward, just like the restaurant I'd remembered. I took a risk and booked it for Valentine's Day - waited so long I had to take a 6:15 pm sitting. Both my partner and I loved it! We were seated immediately, and even though the restaurant was packed, we didn't feel crowded or intruded upon. The service was fast and the server was cordial and attentive. Rustic bread with amazing butter: delicious Salad prepared the French way with dressing already judiciously added: delicious Steak/frites that were impeccably cooked and hot off the grill/fryer: DELICIOUS! We were surprised to find out we got a second helping of the steak/frites! This made so much sense because why get a huge serving when half of it will be cold by the time we eat it? Instead, both servings were hot and delicious. We opted for sauce on the side, which suited our preference for adding it according to our individual tastes. Although the desserts looked very enticing, we passed this time. But maybe next time I'll take something home! All in all, this was a wonderful experience. As my partner said, "10 out of 10." Thank you!

Great service in all parts of the experience, from accommodating a last-moment addition to the party, through explanation of menu items and seasonal specials, to expertly handling an unexpected spill. This places seems to every day earn its great reputation!

My wife and I had the pleasure of dining at The Ruxton on a random Monday night, and it turned into an unforgettable experience. We went with a mix of appetizers—grilled oysters, potato gnocchi in sage brown butter with goat cheese, Wagyu beef sliders, and king crab cocktail. It was a completely random selection, but every dish was outstanding. The gnocchi was rich and perfectly balanced, the Wagyu sliders were incredibly flavorful, and the king crab was fresh and sweet. All of it was complemented beautifully by a fantastic Sancerre. What truly elevated the evening, though, was our server, Sammy. Not only did Sammy provide exceptional service, but we also had a great conversation throughout the night. Engaging, knowledgeable, and genuinely friendly, Sammy made the experience even more memorable. It’s rare to have such a combination of incredible food and outstanding hospitality. I’ll definitely be returning—and when I do, I’ll be asking for Sammy!
