I visit this place a lot since I work in the area. I got to say the service is always great and they keep the place neat consistently. Prices are affordable and they serve generous portions.

Very well kept and convenient place. They serve generous meals and for economical rates. We enjoyed the food very much and the waiters were super personal and chatty. Will definitely recommend this spot.

I always stop by buying some food in here. I liked the swift service and well made food. Never disappointing.

Yummiest martinis around! Please bring back the barrel aged sangria, though, if you can.

Murray Pastko

Great meat, a little pricey and sometimes inconsistent in cooking temperatures.

My husband and dropped into Beelow's outdoor seating area during happy hour on Labor day. It was a gorgeous Monday afternoon and their were many individuals enjoying the beautiful day off by having cocktails and snacks on the outdoor area. The indoor seating area is gorgeous, but was empty for the most part since it wasn't quite dinner time. The staff seemed a bit uninterested in serving that day. We had a few different individuals help us out. Know one bothered to tell us that it was happy hour or that there were happy hour prices. There was supposedly a happy hour menu that we didn't get to see. We ordered two Bloody Mary's and the truffle fries. Both were good and we did get happy hour prices when we checked out. I would probably drop in again for happy hour, but I'm not sure I would brave dinner. Beelow's has a fairly pricey dinner menu, and from previous reviews I'm not sure the food or the service can live up to the prices.

We were pretty disappointed. Four of us were seated originally at a table of 5, and then told we had to move to accommodate another party. The place was completely empty, and the table we moved from was not seated during the entire time we were there. The service was terribly slow, even though there was no one in the place at the time. The lobster appetizer was good, as was the filet and lamb, but the chop salad, sides, and strip steak were not very good. When we received the bill after a 20-minute wait, there was an automatic gratuity of 20%. I don't think we will return.

The restaurant took over the spot from rosebud and made a big impression on us. We went after work on a Thursday and there was a nice size crowd. Cocktail options were plentiful. I went with a nice whiskey. The artichoke chicken was flavorful and moist - super good. Greek Salad was delicious. We shared a decadent dessert sampler... perfect choice. Get it! Our server, Giovani, was the best too. We will be back.

We like a lot hanging out. Yesterday we went to this fine place which friends told us about. We had a delightful experience there with very good cooking and a professional stuff and a talented chef. We put this restaurant in our phone list and we shall definitely visit again very soon. Highly recommended.

Our only experience here was at the bar one evening. We ordered a couple burgers and beers for a casual Saturday night. The bartenders were clearly relaxed probably because their rush was over. Unfortunately for us, this meant not-so-great service. Lots of socializing with friends at the bar, foamy beers that we had to wipe down ourselves, seeking out waiters to bring forgotten sauces, and waiting to get people's attention. My husbands parents recommended the place, and I would expect good service at a restaurant like this--maybe it just wasn't our night. The burgers were pretty good :)

This was our first visit to Beelow's and I was immediately blown away by the elegant decor and space. My husband ordered the beef stroganoff & he said it was largely noodles and mushrooms with a small portion of beef. I had the petite prime rib and there was large portions of fat on each side, so only the middle area was edible (as shown). Since we were celebrating two birthdays, I did not want to make a hullabaloo, but, overly fatty. Our server was great...thanks for the birthday desserts and Yelp check-in freebie. Will try the rib eye steak next time. And, I want to mention that the potatoes were huge!

Fine all around steakhouse with a lively bar up front and plenty of seating in the main dining area. The menu is what you would expect, not a knock just a comment. The entrees are inclusive and the prices are very fair. The service is attentive and friendly and you can park on the street or underground at Renaissance Place.

I have only been here for bloodies and truffle fries. Apparently there is a happy hour menu but I never saw it. We sat outside because the weather was gorgeous and the seating outside is lovely. The service seemed confused the day I was there. A quick review of the menu reveals some serious prices so come prepared to bank roll this adventure.

Nice atmosphere but we might as well have served ourselves/poured our own drinks. 3 tables beside us didn't get cleaned the entire hour and a half we were there. Staff was either lazy or too busy to tend to us. Apparently this is a trend here. But if you're looking for a nice place outside to have a drink, this is not a bad option!
