| - Looked online to find something new to try and came up with Verona Chophouse. The front desk does take reservations so I figured since it was a Friday night I would go ahead and make one. Upon arriving the restaurant was not busy at all, so reservations were not necessary but it's a good option to have just in case. We were seated immediately. The hostess tried to give us a table with chairs and I asked if we could have one of those big white comfy-looking booths instead so she obliged. Within 3 minutes someone arrived with water and hot bread and butter. As we were looking at the menu and perusing the wine list, the waiter appeared and helped us with our drink order. They did not have the wine I selected off the wine list, so I opted for the house Cabernet...which was really good!
The bread and butter were a perfect start. The bread was delicious and the butter was whipped and soft, not that butter in the gold packets that is cold. Once I had that, I knew that the rest of the dinner was going to be great. I ordered the garlic roasted chicken, which comes on whipped garlic potatoes with an au jus gravy and cippolini onions. YUM...It was sooooo tasty. I loved every minute of it. Great flavor and perfect sized portions. The dinner also came with a choice of soup or salad. For the soup they had Manhattan style clam chowder. It was good but I think I still prefer the New England style. The salad had big chunks of bacon with blue cheese crumbles. Comes with a vinaigrette but I opted for ranch instead. I was very satisfied with the quality of food. Part of me worried that the food may still be "casino style"....but it really was nothing like that. I actually thought it was better than some of the steak houses around Chandler that aren't in casinos. Pricing was a bit above average...but $42 for everything still wasn't that bad, and that included the wine.
Service was great...it did seem to take longer than normal to get our entree, but the wine and the bread, soup and salad kept us busy and allowed for conversation between plates. I had read all the reviews here before I even went to this restaurant, but I'm glad I didn't listen to the bad reviews and not go. I will definitely go back again. This is a great place to celebrate for an adult dinner, a romantic date, an anniversary, or just to go out with friends or family. Our waiter was Thomas and he did a great job. Thanks Verona Chophouse!
