Customer Review Summary

Diners consistently praise the food at The Arrogant Butcher, with the Kumiai Oysters and their jalapeño mignonette frequently singled out as a standout starter. The sticky caramel cake earns repeated mentions as a must-try dessert, and the truffle potatoes and crispy Brussels sprouts come up as favorite sides. Service is described as knowledgeable and attentive across both the dining room and the bar, where reviewers highlight strong margaritas and an excellent beer selection. The open kitchen and chef's counter overlooking the action add to the lively atmosphere, and several guests note the convenience of validated parking at Cityscape. A recurring complaint among larger parties is that groups above a certain size are restricted to a limited submenu, which some found frustrating and unexpected. A few reviewers also mention occasional disappointments with specific dishes, such as a dry steak or basic crispy shrimp, and one noted that a popular fish item was unavailable on a Saturday evening.

    Nicer upscale steakhouse. Server was attentive and great. Food was delicious and made exactly the way we asked. Over environment was quieter, and seemed like it was clean.

    Our server, Stephanie, I hope I remembered correctly, was so helpful! I have diverticulosis and she made sure what I ordered did not have seeds. The food was spectacular and reasonably priced. Lovely bottle of wine! Truffle potatoes were our favorite! I had pork tenderloin with wrapped bacon, salad with cherries and those awesome potatoes 😋 My husband had sea bass🙌. Dessert was the sticky caramel cake, yummy!!! We totally enjoyed everything! Oh, we parked in cityscape parking, and the hostess validated our parking, so no cost for that. Great lovely location! Fun for a couple or group! Highly recommend!

    Excellent food & fun atmosphere. The vibe & music when we walked in was surprising & super fun. My twin & I were in town celebrating our birthday with our mom. Alex was our waiter & he was very helpful with drink & dinner suggestions. Mom had an Espresso Martini & we tried the Watermelon Margaritas…drinks were very good. Entrees were Atlantic Salmon & the Crispy Chicken…the salmon melted in your mouth & the chicken was so moist you didn’t even need a knife to cut it. We shared the Royale Banana Split for dessert…they put an edible Happy Birthday sign & candles in our dessert which was really nice. The dessert was amazing…our favorite part was the carmalized bananas…it was definitely a perfect end to a memorable dinner.
