Sat us in the bar without asking us, bartender was trying to serve tables in the bar unsuccessfully. Food took a long time and then came out with incorrect order. Waited another 20 minutes for them to correct the order. Food came out second time without baked potato, then brought baked potato with wrong toppings. Then took another 20 minutes to bring a baked potato that was not cooked properly. Bar tender was distracted by bar patrons. We've eaten here many times and this experience was terrible. We will probably try again but definitely not sit in the bar. They did adjust the bill to apologize.

Review of Aspen’s Steak and Chop House

Atmosphere
Went out for a nice date night. The ambiance was nice, but the noise level was surprisingly high, even though the restaurant wasn’t at full capacity.

Dinner
We ordered two $50 ribeyes, and both were a major disappointment. The steaks were done to our liking but the texture was overly tough—I’ve had much better steaks from Costco. The seasoning was a bit heavy, but likely necessary to compensate for the lack of quality and flavor in the meat.

The mashed potatoes were over-whipped and lacked any real potato flavor. Almost tasted like instant potatoes with garlic added.

The highlight of the meal was the broccolini, which was perfectly cooked and well-seasoned with onions on top.

Service
Our waiter was nice, and a little sarcastic which we liked.

Overall
For nearly $200 for a party of 2, this was a poor dining experience. There are plenty of other restaurants offering far better meals at a much better value. I know I’ll never go back and won’t recommend it to anyone. Two thumbs down.

The only reason I am not giving a 5 star was because the crab cakes weren’t cooked all the way but everything else was very good. Best prime rib in town

I am not a complainer nor do I post many comments anywhere, however, our recent Mothers Day meal at Aspens, a place that we have enjoyed on a regular basis for well over 20 years, was such a disgrace I can not help myself. We had a 7:15 reservation for 4 and due to the holiday we waited probably about a half hour for our table. We then waited another at least 15 minutes for someone to bring water and then another 15 minutes or so for a regular server to take our order. None of this overly pleasing but somewhat understandable. We placed our total order at one time from drinks to appetizers to entree. In ordering appetizer of calamari we were told they were out because they were so busy all day, so we asked what else they were out of and were told also shrimp cocktail and for that matter any shrimp containing meal, and meatloaf entree, and hand cut fries. Then we proceeded to ordering what they did have. When we got our drink order, after about another 15-20 minute wait, my son was told they were out of the wine he ordered, so he ordered a Coors which they don't have and he ended up with a coke. Then while we were awaiting our appetizers I asked someone who I assumed was the manager, who was bussing a table nearby if we could get their usual bread basket, and he told us they were out of bread because they were so busy today. After a few minutes he came back over and said they had some Brioche bread in the back that we could have and I said thanks that would be fine. Shortly after that we got one of the 2 appetizers we ordered and were told the other was coming. Somewhere just before or after that the server came back and told my son and I that the petit filet mignons that we had ordered were also not available any more. Just a note, for years they had always had two sizes of filet mignon 8 oz and 10 oz, recently they dropped the 10oz and replaced it with a 12oz bone in filet for about twice the price of what the regular 10oz filet used to be. At this point I was about to lose my mind internally (although my wife was starting to really get upset a little bit outwardly, at least to our table not the staff), anyway we begrudgingly ordered the Porterhouse to share as a replacement. While now waiting for our entrees I asked at least two more times about our still missing second appetizer and was told it was coming. Eventually it did come... along with our entrees. Now we get to order dessert and coffee. The coffee comes and we asked for milk or cream and were told they were all out of anything in that category even at the bar. At this point I am definitely losing my mind, but again, keep it inside. It should be noted for people who don't know where this restaurant is, that there is a Kroger right in the shopping center behind the restaurant. So now dessert comes and my sister-in-law who ordered their choc mousse cake receives a piece of carrot cake and we were told they were out of the choc mousse cake so they just brought the carrot cake. So ends our Mothers Day meal which lasted approx 3 hours. (Note that among many other holidays we have been there for many, many and never had anything like this happen)
In fairness they didn't charge us for any desserts and they discounted all the entrees, which was nice, but none of this was about the money. We weren't even told by the manager or the server that they had discounted the bill as an apology, I just noticed it when paying it. While this is certainly not an overall opinion of this restaurant it still wipes out a lot of good will. I can not even express my disappointment in a place that we frequented so often and I do not even know if I can get my wife to return.

We had an incredible experience here two weeks ago and it's come up in casual conversation several times... that's memorable! We at at the bar at first and decided to eat there, and our service was top notch, always nearby but never overbearing, with great wine and cocktail recommendations too. We started with the tuna tartare which immediately became our new favorite in the area. The salad and steaks that followed were excellent, and crème brûlée finished the evening elegantly. We can't wait to come back!

We love Aspens! Really good steakhouse if you are looking for a splurge. The food is always consistent and we love the duo medallions, baked potato, corn and wedge salad. Delish food & wine. Nice atmosphere. Pricey, but more of a special occasion place.
