I miss JT Walkers. The Chophouse now inhabits the same space but it's definitely not the same. I ordered their specialty menu Manhattan and it was served warm with a single refrigerator I've cube tray ice cube floating in it and had a nasty medicinal taste. (Too much bitters?) The cheese and olive plate was very nice but their pork tenderloin sandwich was over cooked and did not pair well with a sweet mustard sauce. It was not a good take on a Midwestern pork tenderloin sandwich and it was inedible. Lastly, they placed us at a tiny center table that was of insufficient size for the dishes and cutlery and we kept getting bumped by servers bustling back and forth. All in all - not pleasant. I'm not in any hurry to return. read more

Great quality food and relaxing enjoyable experience. If looking for an upscale small town restaurant vibe, this is the place.

Went here for a dinner with my mom and everything was so yummy! The chefs do such a good job and the customer serves is so nice. Loved the vibe of the place (it was chilly in there though so bring a jacket), and the fireplace was so beautiful! Me and my mom had such a good time and definitely would recommend the spinach and artichoke dip, the chef's recipes are to DIE for, will def be coming back . read more

I had what they called a Philly Cheesestake sandwich. Had some sautéed peppers, onion and mushroom, and two very paper thin slices of mystery meat that was very hard to chew. Not your Normal Philly cheese as you expect it to be. Not impressed or happy with choice. read more

Just took a shot at town we've never been to, and we're glad we did! The place is on the small side, I think the bar may have held ten. It was decorated nicely and the table coverings were a nice touch. We were lucky enough to stop by during Oktoberfest and enjoyed some delicious schnitzel, cabbage and German potato. The haddock was delicious as well but the best part of the meal for me was the grilled asparagus, absolutely amazing! The service was excellent especially because the server was also the bartender and manager. With all her hats she did an amazing job. If you're passing on the interstate, pass by the fast food and treat yourself to some fine dining, you won't regret it. read more

Fine dining has arrived in Mahomet. Let's hope they are here to stay. Wonderful staff. Classy place. We've had several meals there and all have been terrific. Super chef. Thank you! read more

We've been there twice, and the service is very good, but the food is awful. It's processed food. Not fresh. The so-called, 'center-cut porkchop'; is a patty. And the patty was actually tough and fatty. Even the burgers do not appear freshly made and possibly came from a box. Hard to screw up a hamburger but they did. The steaks are inedible. There are Prime, AAA, AA and A grades of steak. These are less than A grade. The food is what you would expect from a bad Nursing Home. So disappointing. Will not be back! read more

Went with a group of 8. Food is over priced.. ordered shrimp got 8 pieces, no bread, no side for $22. some of the food came out warm or cold. One piece of chicken was burnt and cold when we told the waitress the food was taken back and reheated and still burnt. Manager approached our table and said loudly "Is there something wrong here". Due to his approach my husband said back loudly "yes there is!". The manager yelled "dont yell at me" again not let my husband explain the problem. As my husband spoke louder to try to get the opportunity to talk, the manager thru the other guests bills at them and said "I'll comp yours" and "DONT COME BACK!". Lived in this town since 1985 and patronize all our businesses but we will take his advice and not EVER go back. read more

Wow! The food was wonderful and the service was great! The chophouse chicken was tender and tasty and the smoked tofu and cajun vegetables was outstanding - bursting with flavor. The onion rings were also great - crispy and the horseradish cream sauce was the perfect match. For dessert, the moon-high carrot cake was wonderful. read more

We went for the soft open. Steak was great and our server Jackie was on point. We will be back. Fun atmosphere in downtown Mahomet.

Sorry can't recommend the cheeseburger,very dry and mediocre American cheese Also crab cake sandwich is very bland not much flavor, was really hoping for more from the new place read more

The last time I dined here was a different name. It was not good. So I was hopeful after hearing how great the new name was that a new favorite place would be in my future. Nope... The service was average. We were upstairs which downstairs was so loud I was glad to be upstairs. I wanted a table not a high table but was not offered. There were empty tables and no one used them the entire time we were there. My friend ordered a drink and it came as a double which he did not order nor wanted. He ordered French onion soup which was more cheese/croutons than soup. I had the Caesar salad which was tasteless except for the salty croutons. No dressing or cheese. I ordered the salmon which I thought was seasoned with soy/honey...my mistake...hot but very bland. Wanted a baked sweet potato but they were out? It was a 5:30 reservation! So I had a baked potato that was over baked and tasteless. My friend had the pork chops and requested horseradish to add flavor. So the bill comes and prices were not as listed in menu. The meal was bland and boring. It was a sad way to end the year. read more

We had a great meal st Chophouse on main in Mahomet, IL. It is nestled in the historic downtown, and there is plenty of free parking. They have a nice wine selection. The staff was polite and attentive. We had the pulled pork Mac and cheese and it was wonderful. We enjoyed the pickle fries, and a tasty bacon burger with all the fixings. We will definitely be back! read more

We walked in late on a Sunday night with our two kids. All of us famished. We were immediately seated and brought very refreshing ice cold water. The restaurant was clean and the servers and hostess were well dressed. Although their kitchen was closing in 15 minutes, they promptly took our order with no fuss. The food was a 9 out of 10. We ordered French onion, soup, crab cakes, shrimp dinner, pork chop, and scallops. Some of the food needed a little more salt, but that's easily fixed at the table. I don't get the hate on this place from some of the other reviews. Yes, the food is a little expensive. However, good luck getting seafood within a 50 mile radius unless you're at Red lobster. As far as I'm concerned, the service was excellent, especially because we came in right before they were going to close. Our food was excellent. Overall, a strong recommend, best kept secret in Mahomet? read more

Appetizers- crab cakes was moist but lacking in favor past the crust but the bruschetta was full of flavor. Dinners- my wife's salmon salad looked great, she said she would order it again. Our 2 daughters ordered the shrimp po boy & the signature burger. Both loved their order choices. I ordered the chophouse burger which was quite good. My mother-in-law said she would order her entree again. Our waitress was really nice but had to come back to our table after we ordered to ask if we wanted as a side or type of cheese on our food. We know with a little more experience she will not have to make repeated trips. All in all, we had a good time for our first time here. read more

Excellent food, service was great, very clean restaurant. Don't leave without trying the sweet potato fries! Traveling through, never been here and would recommend this stop. read more

Recently visited with my family. Caleb took great care of us!! Food was promptly delivered and the drinks were made efficiently and accurately. Will be visiting again soon!! read more

Attractive but loud atmosphere, Service from Laura was outstanding. The food (Ribeye was tough, gristle and flavorless. Terribly overprice for sub par meat. The condescending attitude of management was unacceptable. read more

I am giving Chophouse a solid 4.. we were a party of 5 plus a baby on Mother's Day.. mid afternoon.. no problem seating us. Their beer selection is very limited so we settled on mixed drinks and they were a good pour. The wine drinker at the table was given a tasting to choose one. The appetizers came out quickly.. so 1. Had a hamburger and said "very good" 2. Had a steak and said marginal.. good fries 3. Had a steak sandwich.. not worth $23 4. Had a salmon salad.. very good 5. Had a mixed plate with shrimp.. ok The service was good, but we were her only table. The place is just too pricey. We eat out "nice" all the time. A wedge salad is $15.00 my husband's favorite.. he always has one.. not here.. he has never paid over $10.. in our own home town a local restaurant has one for $4.50 and it is shareable..and the restaurant is equal. If in the neighborhood just know if you eat at Chop the bill will sting. read more

This is one of my favorite places to eat!! I love the food and the service! I especially love their French onion soup, salads, and shrimp! It's a great place for lunch with a friend and lunch or dinner with the family!! My grandchildren really like the food here!! read more

Updating my review from March, now that I've been here a few more times. I'm in Mahomet much more now than I used to be, so I've had lunch here a few times, and dinner recently. To be honest, it's probably the best place in Mahomet to take clients to lunch, save for the prices. That part hasn't changed. The food, while better, is still pretty spendy. I believe there has been a change in management since my last review, and I can tell a difference. Lunch service is OK, not great, but the menu selections are fine. I was at Chophouse for dinner a couple of weeks ago as part of a large group. I ordered the scallops, and crossed my fingers, given that they can be hard to cook correctly. I was very pleasantly surprised. They were done perfectly, and the portion size was just right. The service was pretty good that night, given the size of our group. My only complaint was that there was a 20% gratuity added to the check, which wasn't mentioned by the server. It was indicated up near the food, and wasn't very apparent on the ticket. A few of us had added our own tips before someone mentioned that it was already included in the bill, causing us to scratch it out and revise the total. Lesson learned. Overall, much better than last time. Still too pricey, but I'll be back occasionally. read more

We visited Chophouse last Friday at 6:30pm. We ordered drinks at about 6:30pm which arrived about 5 minutes later. At that time, we ordered appetizers and dinner. About 7:45pm we had to tell the waitress we were leaving because we haven't received even the appetizers let alone our dinner. Our waitress said a manager would come over to talk to us. He never arrived and at this point, the one year old we brought with us needed to sleep. We found a manager on our way out who told us the kitchen was having "technical issues." This should be have been communicated rather than having customers sit wondering what's happening. read more

Cute atmosphere and tasty food! Salmon was excellent. Also enjoyed appetizers. Great place to meet with friends or for a family dinner as well. Would come back here again!! read more

Wish we'd discovered this place sooner! We visited for a graduation dinner and had a fantastic experience. Our drinks were all delicious, I loved my grapefruit martini and cosmo, and my dad said his old fashioned was one of the best he's ever had. We ordered the garlic cheese curds and fried pickles as appetizers and loved both. Our family ordered a variety of entrees and everyone was happy--my filet was delicious and the caramelized onion and cheddar mashed potatoes with gravy were amazing. The sweet potato fries were also SO GOOD. We ordered a crème brûlée to share for dessert and it was served with delicious fresh fruit on top. The service was good, and we really appreciated that our server pointed out the included gratuity on the check for our large party. Overall great experience and would definitely return! read more

First time here with new owners and it did not disappoint. Great service and great food. Had the chophouse grilled pork tenderloin and it was very good . A side of fresh cut sweet potato fries were perfect. Everything was delivered hot and fresh. So happy to have this place in Mahomet. read more

The food and service didn't match up to the price. We got the fried pickles and were disappointed that they all tasted like fish. Our other food was okay but not worth the price we paid. read more

Received a piece of completely raw salmon on my salad to the point where I couldn't eat it. While trying to get someone's attention, the wait staff (including the managers.) were avoiding looking in the direction of our table, while proceeding to help just about everyone else around us. Of course we were reimbursed, but still absolutely unacceptable that they serve food like this. Will not be returning & would not recommend. read more
