About Gem Steakhouse & Saloon

Gem Steakhouse & Saloon offers a variety of dishes, with standouts including the chicken fried steak, fried pickles, and chili. The shrimp Alfredo and lemon cake are also available. While service is usually considered a highlight, recent reviews indicate that it can be inconsistent, with some customers experiencing delays in being greeted or attended to. The atmosphere is a bit dated, but the prices remain reasonable. The house salad and server's attentiveness received praise, although there have been complaints about overcooked vegetables and chewy mashed potatoes.

The restaurant is noted for its excellent food in a nice quiet environment with comfortable seating. Interestingly, it is located in the place of the original Gem from the 1800s, which may appeal to fans of the HBO Deadwood series. Some diners have mentioned the horseradish being exceptionally hot, even comparing it to the intensity found in the HBO series Chernobyl. Despite some service issues, many guests enjoy their meals and the experience overall.
