Went with a large group for a holiday dinner....compliments of my boss and his wife! We had 8 guests! From the minute we walked in, it was wonderful! We were promptly seated and greeted immediately by the waiter. He was very knowledgeable on the menu and offered suggestions! We all had some fun cocktails to start and everyone was happy with their choices! All started with a cesar salad....and it was one of the best I've ever had! My boss ordered several different types of steaks for the table and that was great! All were flavorful and amazing! We ordered every side dish available on the menu to share! Couldn't chose my favorite! It was a wonderful meal and will definitely go back! read more

The food was not as expected. Scallops were undercooked and meat orders were not cooked to order. This was a private dining room experience with around 20 people. The vegan option was a large mound of fingerling sweet potatoes. Definitely not a very good choice for large parties. Service was slow with only one waiter for whole evening. Be read more

Our server was excellent....HOWEVER, our lunch was not! My husband's pasta special with the Bolognese had very greasy meat sauce and hardly any noodles. I had the Tennessee chicken sandwich. The chicken was paper thin, overcooked and tough, and over seasoned. I chewed on half of it and left the other half. My son in law had added chicken to his salad and had to send it back because it was dry and overcooked. The server was kind enough to send us home with delicious complimentary cookies. Sadly we will not be back. read more

Food fantastic , ambience fantastic , service great but sometimes you have a special server that just makes your experience phenomenal . Thank you Jessica you made our Mother's Day so so special . Your attentiveness and attention to detail was bar none ! read more

801 Chophouse - Steakhouses Near Me - Tysons, Virginia

David you were great! New concept in Tysons did not disappoint in service. Hosts were friendly and they were flexible with booth options. David was on point with his menu knowledge and his hospitality demeanor was great. Ordered oysters, a filet, mac and cheese, and creamed spinach. Got a bit buzzed during dinner so I wasn't able to eat everything but the portions for the price were on point. Looking forward to coming back soon! Thank you for a great experience! read more

This is a high end steak house located in an office building in Tyson's Corner VA. The space was formerly occupied by a McCormick & Schmick's that was gutted and rebuilt at considerable expense to create a beautifully trimmed-out and decorated large bar area and partitioned off dining room. Parking is valet or underground parking garage with the restaurant comping the cost. As a high end steak house please bring your American Excess Card because Chop is a bit expensive. The steaks are all the highest prime grades that are available in the country (per their claims) and are priced accordingly, but not outrageous when compared to other comparable venues in DC, NY, Vegas and so forth. Everything is a la carte so your bill can add up quickly especially with sides (I did not ask if 1/2 sides could be ordered) and preparations (sauces). Cocktails and Wine by the glass are competitive, but bottles are pricey. You can view their menue and prices online. Like Morton's did (still do?), Chop has a cart they can bring by your table to show you various cuts and levels (wet vs dry aged) of prime beef they offer. Be sure to ask the price of the individual items before ordering from the cart as you could have a heart attack when you get the bill. On the cart they showed me the dry aged (not sure the weight) strip was $250 and the 4 ounce Wagu was $280. read more

Excellent spot for a business lunch or dinner in Tysons. Top quality steaks, oysters, and the beef tartare was one of the best I've had in the area. Cocktails were exceptional and so was the service. Will definitely be back for their happy hour in the bar area and it'll be top of mind for business meals in the future. Highly recommended! read more

Been here 2x and each time was a total delight. 1st, it is a high-end steakhouse. Get a loan! That said, the steaks are 100% outstanding. The dry-aged makes for a robust, beefy delight. The 1600° oven charred the steak to perfection. The menu is amazing. My friends and I each ordered different steaks and tried each. Really couldn't decide which was our favorite as they all were perfect. The filet Oscar was fantastic with the crabmeat and asparagus added complexity to the filet. Lobster bisque was very good as well. Could have been a little warmer but yo each their own. Still very tasty. read more

Excellent steaks, ambiance and overall layout, and service. Not crowded, food came up quick, wait and host staff were pleasant but not interrupting too often or otherwise being intrusive. Expensive, but worth what it costs. We'll be back soon. Much better than other local steak houses. read more

Excellent service, delicious food, and surprisingly reasonable prices for the meal we got. Grant was a great waiter and the meat presentation was a fun touch. For sure going back! read more

For the astronomical prices, the food was absolutely mediocre. Fois gras was not cooked right. Steaks were not cooked to order. Calamari was weird. Shrimp cocktail could have come straight from Costco. Bearnaise sauce was awful. On the other hand, service was AMAZING! Our server Grant??? (the one with the astoundingly beautiful singing voice as he sang happy birthday to my brother) was the best I've ever had. Bravo! That young man needs a raise. So tactful, so perceptive, so attentive, so absolutely professional. The restaurant itself is beautiful. However, I can't fairly comment on the ambience because we were a large group in a private room with children!!! I would definitely like to visit the restaurant with a smaller group. read more

I don't usually write reviews--good or bad--but after two disappointing experiences at this chophouse, I feel compelled to share my thoughts. For context, I'm pregnant and need to avoid cured meats due to listeria concerns. The first time I visited, I specifically informed the server that I could not have the cured pork on my salad for health reasons. Unfortunately, in the dim lighting, I mistakenly ate some of the salad, only to realize halfway through that the pork I had asked to be removed was still there. When I brought it to their attention, they offered to bring me a new salad, but at that point, I was too upset. I was surprised that they still charged me for it--at a restaurant of this caliber, I would have expected not only for the item to be removed from my bill but also some acknowledgment of the mistake. Despite this experience, I decided to give the restaurant another chance. On my second visit, I ordered a burger and once again made it clear that I could not have bacon due to my dietary restriction. Yet, my burger arrived with bacon on it. This time, I checked before taking a bite--lesson learned! They quickly replaced it, but it seemed like they had simply removed the bacon rather than making a fresh burger, as I could still taste it. If you have any dietary restrictions, I would be cautious about dining here. Mistakes happen, but when they happen repeatedly--especially after clearly communicating health concerns--it shows a lack of care. I really wanted to like this place, but after two frustrating experiences, I don't think I'll be back. read more

3.5 stars overall. I know this is a newer restaurant, but they have been open for over a month and are definitely still having some issues with service and the food as well. The inside is huge and it is very beautiful! I tried the oysters, which were fine, but apparently have made some people sick. I also tried the filet mignon which was cooked well but was really missing a lot of salt or seasoning. However, the meat was super tender. I also tried the macaroni and cheese side and the sautéed spinach. The spinach was very garlicky and was just OK. I would say it was super average. Was really disappointed with the mac & cheese because it was so bland and although it was a huge serving and creamy, this dish had absolutely no spices and was just really missing a bunch of salt! It was hyped up a lot by our server so I definitely had higher expectations. Also, there were huge gaps in the service, including between the appetizer and main course and then waiting for the entrées to be bagged up. I won't be back. read more

What a wonderful experience. This location atmosphere, service and food is wonderful. I've visited their Leawood restaurant. This McLean one is no exception. Highly recommend. read more

Prime Rib 801 bone in 16 oz Dry Rib Eye 8 oz Porter Dry Grilled Cauli Creamed spinach Fried asparagus Mashed Potatoes Fried Calamari Bone Marrow Beer: Dunkel Dark Lager Top notch service, great atmosphere, all the meats and sides were just fabulous. Restaurant was on tonight. Beer was great too. Date visited: 12/7/2024 5:45 Would I go again? 110% Tysons needs more places like 801 because we lack top notch places to feed. It's getting better though as the area revitalizes. Great job 801. Great job Grant ( our super great attendant). Photos never do great food justice. Just try it! read more

Perhaps good intentions, but really needs work. Wonderful warm interior setting is belied by just acceptable food; small portions; ridiculously high pricing for what you get; and surprisingly slow service even when not busy. read more

A classic steakhouse done with the highest caliber service, food, and ambience! Great service by our waiter, Pinto, and phenomenal food!

I dined here for Mother's Day weekend and whole experience wasn't good at all! When you go to a place such as this, you expect a five star experience. My brother and I waited for our food for over an hour and a half. I had to go looking for the server because he never came back to the table to inform us that the kitchen was backed up so instead of steak, I was offered salmon because it wouldn't take that long by the time my food came my brother was already done eating and we had been there for almost 3 hours. This place was a huge disappointment! read more

Went for lunch and was sat in a booth in the bar area. Service was uneven and it took a long time for anyone to come to our table. Aside from the long waits, it seemed like something was always missing. We didn't realize there was bread until we saw other tables getting bread and butter. We ordered a lobster bisque but was not given a spoon. There wasn't much lobster meat and no one came by so we had to flag someone down for a spoon. We ordered raw oysters but it came with no oyster forks. Again no one came by so we just made do. We ordered crab cakes and the filet mignon. The crab cakes were average, but the filet was cooked perfectly and was delicious. This was the saving grace and the only thing that has me considering going back and just sticking with the steaks. The server was nice, but just was never around or busy with other tables. I suspect that the bar tender was pulling double duty as we saw him working the bar as well. It wasn't crowded, so seems like a staffing issue. read more

Truly 5 stars! Very nice ambiance and decor. The servers were friendly and provided great service. The food was delicious and the wine list fantastic--a true steakhouse wine list with an array of somethings for everyone. The sommelier Jhon was very knowledgeable and eager to understand our tastes and to suggest nice pairings. I highly recommend 801 Chophouse. The women's restroom was a welcome delight in addition to being clean, there were also necessities such as organic cotton tampons in different sizes, and panty liners, hairspray, spray deodorant, mouthwash, toothpicks and moisturizer! The men's room so I hear, has mouthwash and toothpicks, I don't recall if there was more. read more

801 Chophouse is the best steakhouse I've ever been to. Service is impeccable (classy, attention to detail and knowledgeable) Highly recommend. The best beef in the DMV area. The steak was cooked to perfection and truly melt in your mouth. Scallops were also perfectly cooked. Oysters Rockefeller were to die for. Incredible sides! The souffle for dessert was exquisite. Extensive wine menu. read more

I know this restaurant just opened recently, so maybe the problems that we had are because they are still ironing things out, but the service was really bad. They seated us in the noisy bar area instead of the nice dining room, even though we are a couple who was celebrating a special occasion. I ordered a champagne cocktail and what arrived was a mix of sparkling wine and lemonade (very bizarre). Our soup came without a spoon. We waited a very long time for our steaks to come out after our starters--over an hour, then because we had to wait so long the waiter told us that he brought us a spinach side (that we had not ordered) for free, but then when we got the bill, they had charged us for it. We had ordered a soufflé at the beginning of the night after our server recommended it, but after our steaks the server brought us the dessert menu, and he did not remember that we ordered the soufflé. When we reminded him that he had already taken our dessert order, he told us he remembered that and would check with the kitchen. 15 minutes later we were still waiting so we decided it was so late given how long everything had taken that there was no way we were going to wait for them to make a soufflé, and that we wanted to just get out of there, so we asked for the check. The food was good, but not any better than Capital Grille or Morton's. So even though the location is really convenient for us, we won't go back--the poor service was far too frustrating. read more

We tried out 801 Chophouse today for lunch expecting a great experience. Unfortunately, it was not what we expected. The ambiance was nice but after we were sat in a booth, we waited for almost 10 min before a busser (not a waiter) came to get our drink order. once our drinks came (dropped off by the hostess), we waited another 15-20 min before the waiter finally came over to the table. He asked how our drinks were but we were ready to order. He never introduced himself or told us his name. He took our order and never came back when drink glass was empty. finally when the food came I asked for a glass of wine, which came promptly. Overall the food was good but the service was by no means up to standards. We will be coming back. On the off chance we do, we will requestbut a different server. read more

Recently on my birthday , my husband and I went to have dinner at 801 Chophouse Tysons Corner which is one of the expensive steakhouses , opened just 3 weeks. We made reservation ahead of time. The receptionist greeted us and took us to a booth in the bar area that was kind of noisy and dark. She did not take us to the dinning room where it was much brighter and more comfortable, the dinning room wasn't full, why she didn't take us to the dinning room , we didn't know , may be not enough waiter or us ? We ordered Caesar salad to be shared , my husband ordered red wine , I didn't order wine since I don't drink wine or soda. For dinner , my husband ordered scallops , and I'd ordered the 16oz prime rib medium that was pretty good, we'd ordered the butter with bone marrow sauce , and we also ordered green beans with bacon which was good. At the end of our dinner, I'd ordered coffee and my husband wanted cappuccino but they didn't have as they didn't have the machine yet. My coffee came out just luke warm, seems like it's been sitting there for a long time, the waiter didn't border to make another pot. I didn't complain figured that not too many people would order coffee and it's getting late. The waiter did not charge us coffee, and the bill came to be around $ 300 tips included . Don't think we'll ever go back if they don't change their attitude and their service. read more

My husband and I went to 801 Chophouse on a Tuesday evening for our anniversary. It wasn't busy and they seemed to be pretty well staffed. My husband had added a note to the reservation that we were celebrating our anniversary, so the hostess sprinkled confetti on the table before we sat down. It was a nice touch, but it would have been better had the server recognized that we were celebrating and said something. The food was mostly good. My filet mignon was overcooked, which was disappointing. After dinner, the server asked if we would like the dessert menu. We of course said yes because we were celebrating our anniversary. He brought us the menu and warned us that if we ordered one of the soufflé desserts to take into account the 20 minutes for them to make it from scratch. He then left us with the menu to discuss. We decided we would order two of the other dessert options that wouldn't take so long to prepare, but then our waiter did not come back to take our order for another 20 minutes. What if we had wanted the soufflé?! By the time he finally came back to take our order, we were tired and needed to get home to relieve the babysitter. So we said we would pass on dessert, even though we had fully planned to get order some. The waiter seemed annoyed with us and grabbed the menu in a huff. We paid and left, feeling pretty disappointed in the whole experience, and especially that our waiter's negligence had prevented us from getting dessert. There was no excuse for the waiter not to be attentive, seeing as it was a quiet Tuesday evening. Unfortunately, we will not be going back to 801 Chophouse because of this experience, even though it is very close to our home and would have been a nice addition to our rotation of neighborhood restaurants. read more

Beautiful restaurant. I think since they are new, the wait staff is a little timid to make sure customers are happy and don't understand substitutions. I asked for the salmon without all of the accompanying items, and the waiter said he didn't think they could do that. It was impossible. I had to get it how it was listed on the menu. (My fault for ordering salmon at a steak place!) Also, we ordered cocktails in large pint beer glasses with lots of mixer. We were brought two small glasses and I had to ask three times for additional soda for my drink. Just little things that should have been understood at a high end steak place. We'll try it for lunch when they open in October. read more

worst service in tyson's. food is average but the steaks are top tier. they new management and a full staff makeover if they ever want to compete in the DC area read more

We know 801 Chophouse having dinned at the original in Des Moines and in Kansas City. The best in the Midwest now in the DVM. We were very excited to learn that they had just opened and made reservations for our Anniversary. The staff was amazing and they were so excited that we actually dinned at their original location in Des Moines Iowa. They treated us like royalty and the chef and general manager came to congratulate us and thanked us for celebrating our anniversary with them. The service and all of the food was the best we've had in the DVM and we have dined at all of the top steakhouses in town. All the beef was prime and every dish we had was out of this world!! Classic, high class Midwest chophouse!! read more

Visited in mid-December with another couple and we were all very impressed. The meal and service were great. I initially thought this place would give Capital Grille, which is just up the road a run for its money. My wife and I went back again on New Year's Eve and, unfortunately, we were a bit disappointed. We sat at the bar for dinner. To be fair, the ambiance is nice, and the appetizers, to include oysters and shrimp cocktail, were good. My wife ordered the scallops and risotto, and the risotto was incredibly salty. Over the top salty. I like my food salty and it was too much even for me. They redid the risotto and it was better tasting but came out in a small bowl which was odd. Not the greatest presentation. My steak was ok. We decided on coffee and chocolate soufflé for dessert. The coffee came out lukewarm. When I mentioned this to the bartender, she said there was a fresh pot brewing, which to me means they knew the coffee wasn't hot and fresh to begin with but decided to serve it anyway. Capital Grille is consistent. Never had an issue there, and my wife and I have been patrons for years. Don't think we'll be in any hurry to go back to 801. Also, a lesson could be learned from Great American Restaurants in the DMV, and that lesson is, when a patron has an issue of some sort, send a manager out to discuss the problem at hand. Doing so sends the message that the restaurant "really" cares about the customer experience. read more
