   Choplin Steakhouse delivered an extraordinary dining experience that we won’t soon forget. From the moment we arrived, the ambiance was warm and welcoming, setting the tone for a memorable evening. We started our meal with the scrumptious crab cake bake, which was bursting with flavor and perfectly cooked. It was the ideal way to begin the meal and showcased the restaurant’s commitment to quality and taste. For our main course, we ordered the filet mignon and salmon, both cooked and seasoned to perfection. Each bite was a culinary delight. The sides were equally impressive—especially the Brussels sprouts and goat cheese, which were hands down the best I’ve ever tasted. Our server, Watson, elevated the experience even further. His attentiveness, kindness, and knowledge of the menu made us feel like VIPs. His wine and dessert recommendations were spot on, rounding out the meal with a decadent finish. Choplin Steakhouse is truly a gem. The exceptional food, impeccable service, and inviting atmosphere make it a place I will eagerly return to and recommend to anyone looking for a top-tier dining experience.

   Love the remodel but lights are too too bright. We told you but you didn’t adjust. Also trying to get in and out with a solid sheet of ice was dangerous and not customer friendly.

   The owner and hostess were very pleasant and fun! They accommodated all their guests and the select menu offered many options at a fixed price. We had a wonderful New Years Eve evening thanks so much!

   Great food. Don’t go if holiday and you are a party of 1. You’ll sit at “the bar” which is not a bar…but the check-out counter.

   Hi Laurie, we understand your sentiments. Our GM did try her very best to accommodate you considering we had ZERO tables left for a New Year's Holiday which is our busiest night of the year. Though she explained it would be at the bar since you had a reservation only for 1, I hope you can consider her efforts as every table was for a reservation for 4-18 per table. We hope you'll come back another time when we have more availability to seat you at a table by yourself. Our warmest wishes for a happy and blessed 2025!

   We went for New Year’s Eve and had the pre-fixed menu. The service was good but the food was fair, at best. I expected better for the price being charged. I’ve been to Choplin’s in the past and never had a negative experience.

   Hi Brandi! Firstly, thank you for coming in to celebrate New Year's Eve with our family at Choplin's. We do our very best to make it special as it is a big holiday. That said, with our price point of $85 for a 4 course meal during the biggest holiday of the year, while the industry standard is above $100/ person for New Years Eve, it's unfortunate that you felt you did not get what you expected. We try to accommodate the best we can to those who are fortunate enough to get a reservation during New Year's Eve as we usually have over 100 people on the waitlist. Hopefully, if you give us another chance, you'll enjoy your visit next time around during the busiest season of the year in the hospitality industry and that we can meet your expectations. Warm wishes and all the best! Cheers!

   We’ve dined many times at Choplin’s and recently noticed a lot of nice changes. We dined with our family of 10 for Christmas Eve and the place was buzzing but the staff handled things very well. There was one table next to ours that complained about food taking awhile, but what do you expect during a packed restaurant on Christmas Eve?? We were just happy Choplin’s was open so we didn’t have to cook dinner at home! I’m sharing this because people need to have better expectations. It’s not a fast food restaurant folks. Choplin’s will always be our spot to celebrate with family because even with the tremendous growth they’ve had, the food has remained perfection, the staff are warm and friendly and the service and experience continues to be top notch! Bravo to the owners for keeping this lovely gem one of the best around and more importantly, for all you do in the community! God bless you for years to come! See you again soon for our next family celebration!

   Thank you for so much for your kind words as well as feedback regarding our staff. We wholeheartedly appreciate you valuing the fact that we are open on Christmas Eve, That alone means so much to us and our staff who sacrifice time away from their families. Thank you so much and yes, we too look forward to your next celebration with us! Warmest wishes and happy new year!

    Our family went for Christmas Eve which had a limited menu. Great options and overall food was good but service was extremely slow. We were there for 3 hours. While we had a group of 14, it was not crowded and we had to track our server down several times. It was a holiday so I’m sure staff was limited. Overall we had a good dinner. However for $85 per person, I don’t believe we would do it again.

    Thank you Heather for your sentiments. We do our very best as one of the only restaurants in Charlotte and the surrounding area who extend operations and service during Christmas Eve. It's unfortunate that you felt you did not receive the experience you hoped for. We welcome you to try us again in the future and hope you'll find the efforts of our staff and family who work on holidays, to be a better experience as we serve you. Our warmest wishes for a blessed and wonderful new year.
