Opera House Steak & Seafood

The experience was awful. The restaurant was closed, and OpenTable let me book a table and ruin my date. This restaurant is permanently closed. I expect OpenTable to give me my hundred points anyway very disappointed!!!

HOSPITALITY PLUS!!! EXCELLENT FOOD!!! We enjoyed our Ribeyes, baked potatoe & veg medely. Our salads were crisp! We enjoyed the Beat salad & the Wedge. We shared the Chocolate cake; this was to die for! Hanna our waitress, was the BEST! She kept checking on us for refills & needs. SO SAD that the restaurant is now closed ...

Rachel was our waitress and explained the specials and offered drinks and appetizers. Her recommendation of the cream of chicken artichoke soup was spot on. I ordered the NY strip and my wife the ribeye. Both came with a vegetable medley and baked potato. The steaks were flavorful and the sides were delicious. Rachel even brought the chef out to introduce himself. Rachel then explained to us that the restaurant is closing. I have eaten here numerous times and have never been disappointed. For the price, the quality of the food is well above the chain steakhouses. It's sad to see another family owned restaurant close.

Recently moved to Plainfield. Its been on my list of places to try for 4 months. Took my fiance there for a well deserved end of year meal. Ambiance was great, staff friendly as can be. Just made me feel like Family. Wine selection on point. Appetizers on point. Steaks cooked to perfection! Just a fyi - order extra garlic oil with the bread, its so effing good! We will be back for sure

We went on NYE so the menu was fixed, no one told me this when making a reservation. 4 course meal for $50 so the price was not bad but the meal was TINY! only a few options to choose from and being pregnant I had slim pickings due to a lot of the food not being cooked well (prime rib and cocktail shrimp) Only really had one option to choose from. My ravioli was ice cold after waiting 1 hour for food! My husband asked for ranch for his salad because the only option was balsamic and the server said they don't have ranch today.... I'm sorry if were paying $50 for a super small plate of food, you cant accommodate ranch for a salad that was lettuce and onions only! Should've came with croutons and cheese but the server told us that it as a typo on the menu, but the table next to us had croutons and cheese! THE SERVICE WAS TERRIBLE! I know it was NYE, but if you're taking reservations only you should be prepared with enough servers especially if the menu is slim items such as desserts couldv'e been prepared beforehand! We had a babysitter and took WAY longer than expected! Our dessert took 45 mins to come out, A piece of chocolate cake and what was supposed to be cheesecake, was pudding falling over on the plate. WHAT A WASTE! NEVER again, do not go here! save your time and money there are so many other great places in DT Plainfield!

Service poor - we waited extremely long for drinks, bread, water - waiters kept bumping our table set in a corner booth they had to pass to serve the bar area. Apps were good but both of our entrees were cold and the meat chewy & tough. We didn't even stay for dessert which we paid for. We noticed other people getting up and leaving. Not what we expected for upscale dining!

Our server was phenomenal considering they were overbooked and under staffed. The food was lower quality than normal, which was disappointing for the holiday. However the martinis were fantastic and our server was very attentive considering.

Service would be ok if food service wasn't so slow. Took 3 hours to have a simple dinner. Restaurant wasn't even crowded. Mixed drinks weren't good. Food also was just blah. Won't return and can't recommend restaurant. Server was very friendly and nice but service was horribly slow.

Anniversary dinner, and couldn't be more pleased! Steak and lobster cooked to perfection!

Our server Rachael was excellent, friendly, and attentive. The food was very good. Two of us had steaks which were cooked perfectly but a bit too much salt on both the steak and veggies. The pork chop was very good and the beef stroganoff was a healthy portion which could have benefited from a bit more steak. The prime rib potato skins are worth trying!

Our first time there, my husband and I went to celebrate our 5 year Anniversary. We asked for a wine, they were out of stock but offered us an upgrade wine for no extra charge. They brought us a crème brûlée dessert to help us celebrate! Would love to go back and try something else!

Rachel was a fabulous host. She explained the specials and even suggested a different wine when the one I chose was not available. I would highly recommend the Opera House for a date night. Quality steaks and the grouper special was phenomenal.

The seating was strange for a music show. The tables were so close together. No sense of privacy, intrusive to us who were on a date night. Our service was severely lacking. The server seemed unknowledgeable about the menu and not urgent about her job duties. So naturally our drinks took 20 min to get to the table and that's after having to ask where they were. Drinks were strong and good. The food was just ok for the extravagant price. Large portions but my scallops were overcooked and tasted a little old. My risotto was too thick and really salty and oily. The creamed spinach, which was forgotten by the staff, came late, and was stiff/set up/reheated with no flavor. I thought they would comp it since I was almost done with my meal but nope. My husband seemed to enjoy his dish - the pork chop. I had a taste of his entire dish and it was good, better than mine. Bread was brought WITH the meal. I was so hungry I would've appreciated it more if the bread was delivered before the meal. If it was my call, I personally would not choose to go here again.

Everything was great other than the cut of Prime Rib. Servuce was very attentive, and Sinatra, playing in the background, set a good mood and

We were looking forward to this based on other reviews and it looked like great atmosphere. Certainly comes across as a high quality steak place but ribeye was overly fat and chewy - even at medium rare. Lobster was chewy and cold. For what was charged, I expected more. Bread was burnt and black. Upside: service was great. We can say we tried it, I wouldn't go back. For the price I'd go to Sullivans, Gibsons, Turf Room or Shaws
