| - A few friends and I decided to have dinner at Chop before attending a comedy show at the nearby Laugh Shop. I had never been before, but I'd seen it during my outings to Chinook and the menu looked pretty interesting. When we arrived, our table was already available since we had made a reservation, and our server was very friendly and helpful. We ordered drinks, which were pretty good (I had the Bellini) and then our food. I was pleased that everything came out SUPER fast. The crab cakes we had to share were really yummy, as was the french onion soup I had chose for my starter. I decided to go with the steak for my meal, since it's a steakhouse, but was really disappointed. Perhaps it was the cut or the way it was prepared, but it was tough to cut through and tasted fatty. My boyfriend also commented that his tasted like liver (I don't know what that means haha). We also shared the dessert trio, which was pretty tasty. It was a decent meal, and the service was great, but it is WAY too expensive for what you get. Our bill came out to around $140, and I felt that we could have had the same (if not better) meal somewhere else for a lot cheaper. It was a fun experience because of the company we were with, but I would not return to Chop. It's nothing special and seriously overpriced. However, I will comment that the restaurant itself is beautiful and the bathrooms are really nice!
