Steaks were overcooked. No beverage refills. Limited days and hours that they are open.

Toughest steak I’ve ever had. The lobster was rubbery and the cheese cause for the baked potato was some weird substance that didn’t seem edible. Definitely not the cellar it once was.

Was hoping for a good place to get a steak. It took an hour and a half from the time we ordered to get our food. It was fairly busy but the waitress never checked to see if we wanted refills or anything that whole time. There was plenty working too. Neither of the steaks we ordered or the lobster had any good flavor to them. I had asked what cut came with the steak and lobster and she couldn’t tell me and just said the size instead. I ordered my porterhouse medium and it came out well done. It was practically as then as carne asada. I’ll usually give placed another shot because we all have bad days but this place won’t get another shot from us.

I took my son and daughter to this place and it did not disappoint! The food was so delicious my steak was cooked perfect. The staff was friendly and they made sure we had everything we need. The waitress even put credits in the jukebox for my kids to play whatever they wanted. Us along with our waitress were having a mini concert while waiting for out food just singing away. We will definitely be back here.

Relaxed atmosphere but nice enough to do a birthday meal with the familyFamily friends own the place and it's always nice to support local businesses. Steak is great chicken is pretty decent too. My family is a big fan of the okra.

I used to come in all the time with my family when I was younger, and it WAS amazing. It's changed hands a few times and each time it's gotten worse. The quality of the food has gone down and the atmosphere doesn't feel nearly as welcoming. The customer service is ok, there are just usually long wait times.

Finally got a good steak house. My steak was perfect and the drinks were awesome. I would recommend going to try for yourself. Keep up the good work.

We have been dining at The Cellar for 40+ yrs and were very sad to see it decline after the original owner passed. We were very excited to see that it had changed ownership again and hoped it would be more like it used to be. Our meal was good. Hubby and mom had ribeye, $29, ?, but was very good. I had chicken fried steak, $18, was also good. Service was not the greatest and there was only people at 4 tables when we walked in. Also the salads are literally just lettuce and dressing. No tomatoes, no carrots, no croutons, nothing. Clam chowder is flavorless. Our meal was $94. Our daughter had a kids Mac n Cheese meal for $7 and drinks. All in all, we will probably not go back.
