Way too much money for disappointing food and after I told another about my experience it sounds like the owners are not good people. They do not care about you or your experience, just your money.

During an outing to Green Lake last fall we stopped in here around 4pm on a Saturday afternoon, planning to take advantage of the happy hour. When the hostess checked us in, she told us that only outdoor seating was able to participate in happy hour. OK, we went outside. The server outside took 30 minutes to get to us, then didn't know why the menu outside was different than inside, and sent us back inside. He said to ask at the bar about it. We asked the bar and were given the happy hour menu.
From there, we only had about 15 minutes left before happy hour was over and still hadn't been able to order. We were seated back where we were originally inside, and finally a server took out orders. We each got a drink and an appetizer. The menu didn't list prices, just a certain dollar off for drinks and half price apps, so we looked at the full menu to compare and still didn't get clarity.
When he came back with the first of the drinks, they were wrong. I ordered a pinot noir and was given white wine, and then they had accidentally poured a red blend, so I got that one and not what I ordered. The only drink that came correctly was the martini.
Now the appetizers, this poor waiter had zero idea what was on the menu and I asked if the truffle frites were truffle fries. His answer was "yes, truffle frites", even when asked if they were french fries or potato fries three times. Fortunately, that's what they were.
After 2 hours and missing dinner elsewhere, we went to pay and the bill had prices that didn't match either of the menus, and an extra wine. It took three rounds with the waiter, a calculator, the hostess, and finally the bartender to get close to a solution and eventually we left the correct amount of cash and walked out. It was horrible service, but the food was excellent.

We've eaten at Chops many times, and again last night. In the past the food was always excellent. Last night, however, it was not good. Three people in our party ordered the fillet. Two of the fillets were so tough, cutting with the steak knife was very difficult and left an unappetizing piece of steak. One of the steaks was tender and delicious. The salmon was very good. The service was fine, not good or bad. We sat near the windows looking out at parked cars and the dilapidated house next door. We left thinking we'd be good never going back.

Green Lake is special to me. I have a fondness for this area that extends well into my past, and if I am fortunate enough, well into my future. Like any small town or city in the Midwest, it has had its ups and downs as far as a thriving downtown business district. I've seen the rise and fall and eventual rise again of summertime activities bustling with loads of people all enjoying themselves. I am ecstatic that the area appears to be on another upswing. However, I cannot begin to express my heartache at the closing of the legendary Lil Corporal. I was stunned when I first found out it was closed and during every subsequent trip to Green Lake I still stop by and peer into the windows where I can see apparitions of memories past enjoying a hearty breakfast. But this isn’t a farewell to a friend, it is a happy hello to a new companion! I am decidedly certain that chops will continue to establish itself in much the same way as Lil Corporal (and a shout out to Adim’s Rib) where people will fondly revisit as the decades of their lives go by and they find themselves one day bringing their grandchildren to this wonderful steakhouse. Great cuts of meat, clever side dishes, and a variety of wines pepper this concise and flavorful menu at prices that will make you smile once the bill arrives.

Delicious! We heard about Chops from the home town channel and it does not disappoint. The calamari and salad were great and the signature lamb chops were cooked perfectly. The coffee gelato was the perfect finishing touch. The food presentation also high quality. Small town casual fine dining done right. We will be back and would highly recommend stopping by to give Chops a try.

Booked the wine room for my parent’s 40th anniversary with their friends! They all have not stopped talking about how amazing the food, drinks, and service were! Many comments on how they loved the square table so they all could talk to each other. They capped off their dinner with ice cream drinks! Safe to say the entire group will be back. Thank you Chops for making this night so special!
