The Shula's Story
Established in 1989, Shula's Steak House started with one goal in mind - to carry on the legacy of Coach Don Shula, one of the greatest coaches in NFL history. 30 years later, we've taken that goal and run with it. We're proud to offer the highest quality steaks, fresh-caught seafood, and tantalizing sides.

Inspired by Coach
Winners are a different breed. Winners work hard, winners value the small details, and winners never cut corners.
When Coach Don Shula opened the first Shula's Steak House in 1989, he took his winning formula to a whole new level. He wanted to provide the highest quality steaks in a warm, inviting setting. There's an ethos to excellence - it doesn't matter if you're coaching an undefeated football team, or grilling up a porterhouse - we make sure we live by it.

    Food done to order from one order of well done to one order of rare steak. Sides were large portions, enough to share among four at the table. service was good, and the noise level was quiet to moderate, but there were only a few tables active. Prices were quite high.

    While our server was very nice, it was clear that kitchen and bar was very backed up. Timing seemed very delayed and short handed. Disappointing for a higher end dinner
    Shula's Steak House - GainesvilleResponded on 9 March 2025
    We are truly sorry it felt your food delivery was delayed. You alerted your server about an allergy before service and our staff dedicated time to ensure there was no cross-contamination throughout your dining experience. Our manager checked in at the end of service to ensure you had a great dining experience with us and everyone at the table said they enjoyed everything. We appreciate your feedback Tara; we will be sure to share this with the team!

    We recently dined at Shula’s Steakhouse and had a great experience when it came to both the food and service. The steaks were cooked perfectly, and our server was attentive and knowledgeable, making the meal enjoyable. However, one major disappointment was that the online menu had not been updated in years. This was a key factor in our decision to dine here, and we were shocked to find that the actual prices were significantly higher—wine was nearly three times the cost listed online, and food prices were 30-40% more. When we brought this up, the manager was understanding and mentioned that they have been asking corporate to update the menu for years, but nothing has been done. While we appreciated the quality of the meal and the hospitality, the outdated pricing felt misleading. I’d recommend dining here for the food, but be prepared for prices well beyond what’s advertised online. Hopefully, corporate makes the necessary updates soon.

    We are happy to hear you had an enjoyable evening with us! We will share this with our team. We have also updated our online menu! Thank you for your feedback Chad!
