Food service and ambiance are always more than perfect. The only place for me to get a Boodymary. Tito "bartenders name" makes the best. The occasion was a birthday celebration and they made it special with champagne flowing constantly. Thank you to everyone. read more

This is an established restaurant on Whittier Blvd in Pico Rivera just off the 605 fwy. It's better to access the parking lot off Gregg Rd instead of the "main" entrance on Whittier which is easy to miss. Food is reasonably priced and tastes good. Obviously steaks but chicken and seafood are also ok the menu. We did the Sunday brunch for $49 which included bottomless mimosa, champagne, or fruit juices; a starter salad or parfait and a breakfast entree of your choice. I chose the sirloin steak and eggs. Very good value! Our server was excellent! She kept our drinks full and explained everything on the menu! She also went out of her way to meet all the requests from our large group (including our bill splitting request). Ambience is best described as dark. Not spooky or gothic; just no windows and lighting that requires you to use your phones as flashlights. For good food at a reasonable price with great service - highly recommended ; just bring a light with you. read more

I've become a regular here for multiple reasons: 1) The ambiance can't be beat! Great music, ambient lighting, classic steakhouse vibes that are hard to find these days. 2) The servers! Tiffany always gives quick, friendly, excellent service at the bar and knows how to make a great cocktail. Her knowledge is extensive and varied, and I've never heard her say she doesn't know how to make a drink, no matter what has been presented to her. Even when they're slammed, Tiffany has never been short or rude or grumpy towards me or any other customer that I've seen. 3) The food: classic, huge portions. I always have enough leftovers for a second meal later in the day or the following day. I love this establishment and hope it remains open for many more years! read more

I always have an excellent experience at Steak n Stein. The food is outstanding, perfectly cooked, and full of flavor. What really made the evening memorable was the exceptional service. Our server/bartender Tiffany is attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about both the menu and drink selections. She ensured our glasses were never empty. Her professionalism and positive attitude created a welcoming atmosphere from start to finish. It's clear they take pride in providing great customer service. Between the delicious food, expertly crafted drinks, and outstanding hospitality, I will definitely be returning. Highly recommend! read more

Steak n Stein never disappoints. The service is consistently phenomenal. Candace always goes above and beyond to make every visit special. She has great suggestions, incredibly friendly, and is always happy to answer any questions. She makes the experience better. The food is amazing. The salads are always fresh, and dressings are delicious. My personality favorite is mixing a little French dressing with their blue cheese. Their baked potatoes are an absolute must! They're huge and perfectly cooked, especially loaded up with butter, cheese, sour cream and chives. Don't skip the onion rings! They are always cooked to perfection and another favorite of mine. You truly can't go wrong here. A huge Thank you to Candace and Matt, for always taking good care of us. There is plenty of parking in the back. The restaurant itself is beautiful. We'll definitely come back! read more

First impressions- lots of ambience, but definitely a place that locals know and frequent. Darker dining and bar areas, with lighting that adds to the experience. Service is with waitstaff all with ties and suits, friendly and knowledgeable about their menu options. The food is very old school-flavorful and plentiful. If you are watching diet, portions or other restrictions, give it up. Fantastic way to enjoy a meal read more

Clearman's Steak 'N Stein - Chandelier from above our table- nice! - Steakhouses Near Me - Pico Rivera, California

Got together with some friends and and started off in the bar. The bar area is a bit tight and narrow, but there are plenty of seats. Made our way to the dining room near the old fire pit in the center of the floor. Most of us ordered the prefix filet meal. One defector ordered the salmon. The filet was a generous 10oz cut and this comes with their cheese bread, onion rings, baked potato, salad, and dessert (choice of key lime pie or the chocolate mousse cake). I ordered my rare and it came out perfect between rare and medium rare. The salad was delicious and u get three choices of dressing (blue cheese, thousand island and Russian). The baked potato was huge, took half home along with half my steak. The key lime pie pie was ok, (I prefer watergrill's key lime pie) I did try the chocolate mousse cake and should have chosen that one. The onion rings were lightly battered and tasty. Service moved a bit slow, as the place was pretty busy for a Wednesday night. One minor disappointment that we had was bringing in three bottles of wine and told the corkage fee was $15.95 per bottle. We received the bill and our server charged us $19.95 a bottle. She said she made a mistake. Hmmm. Other than that, everything was good. read more

Clearman's Steak 'N Stein - Filet and baked potato. - Steakhouses Near Me - Pico Rivera, California

My friends and I came here for lunch. We ordered from their Dine LA menu. I had the corn soup as starter. For the main entree, I had petit filet mignon with baked potato. For dessert, I had the key lime pie tart. Cheese breads come with the meal. It was delicious. They are very generous with the bread. They would refill the bread basket as often as you'd like. The baked potato is huge. It is served with butter, sour cream, chives and cheese sauce on the side. You can add as much as you like to suit your taste. The petit filet mignon is small, only 5-oz, but it was very tasty. I asked for medium and it was cooked just right. The key lime pie tart and the chocolate mousse cake were both good. I had a taste of both. Service was excellent. Staff were friendly and efficient. The interior of the restaurant is dimly lit. It is rather dark inside. It gives an old fashion 50's vibe. It would be a good place for a romantic evening. Overall, I enjoyed dining here. Everything I had was delicious. read more

The place is nice and dark but enough light to see. The service is usually great but there were some mistakes, like the waitress dropping the potato. The steaks are usually great but there was inconsistency with all of them this night, and when your bill is about $500 for 2 adults and 4 kids you expect better. Highlight was the purple cabbage and the calamari. The biggest letdown was the server didn't stay true to the service, she didn't make the baked potato, she just said butter first sour cream and chives and that's not what I wanted for my kids their first visit. Anyhow might give it another shot but the kids didn't like it so maybe just the wife and I. The old fashions drink I had came out good the first time and horrible the next. read more

I love this place. I've been coming for many many decades. The service is always great although tonight we had a reservation for 4 o'clock and they wanted us to wait and wait to be seated. I finally said something and they seated us. I shouldn't have to ask again and again to get seated. Really the only other complaint is that it's just too dark. I couldn't see if my steak was cooked properly and I couldn't see how much salt was coming out of the salt shaker for the baked potato. I guess it's a personal preference. I just like to be able to see my food. otherwise there aren't many places like this around anymore. read more

Stopped by on Sunday for brunch with my fiancé. We noticed that the menus changed, no dessert and a little more expensive. Gave it a 2 star review because the food was good. Dropped the stars because: No dessert, higher prices and I paid for the brunch which includes mimosas. My glass was empty. Only came by to fill it twice. They used walk around with a bottle and fill you up. Not anymore!! Will come back but not as often anymore. read more

Last minute decision and we were not disappointed. Our server Destiny was amazing. Friendly, attentive, personable, and our food was delicious. We dine out alot and service has been very disappointing lately at other restaurants. We really appreciate Destiny and her kindness. Will be back soon:) read more

Never felt so full in my life! Definitely in my top favorite comfort meals. They had this delicious homemade blue cheese dressing (I hate blue cheese) The cheese bread is to die for. I can eat a whole plate of the flaky crab cakes. The baked potato is huge. The steak was a little overcooked but still delicious and don't get me started on the lobster. So flavorful! Ambiance is very romantic and perfect for date night. The service was amazing and attentive. Tysm! I will come back again. read more

I grew up in Pico and this was my first experience at Clearmans. I really enjoyed it and will definitely be back. I went with my family for my birthday and ordered the steak and lobster. The cheesy bread they bring out is very good. The salad could have a little more like cherry tomatoes or cucumbers it was basically just lettuce and croutons. I like that they bring different salad dressings to the table. The steak and lobster were cooked perfectly and the onion rings were light. The place looks old school. It's like you stepped back into the 60s. The waiter was on point and very friendly. read more

First time at this location - I normally go to the San Gabriel location. I was pleasantly surprised to see such an ample waiting area and a very pretty, lit-up water fountain in the middle of the restaurant. Their parking lot is pretty big - it was a busy Friday night and had no trouble finding parking. We ordered the bone-in ribeye steak - it was super juicy and perfectly seasoned! If you've been to the San Gabriel location this location is different in that there's no shelled peanuts (they serve them pre-shelled) and you have to ask for them - they don't automatically give them to you. Also, they only serve one portion of salad on a plate - unlike the SG location where they serve the salad family style in a huge salad bowl. Our server was Matt, and he was extremely attentive and polite. I can't say the same thing about the young lady host at the front- she wasn't very helpful or friendly of accommodating - for that I had to knock down one star. I feel like steakhouses are one of those places where you expect to get at least polite, if not excellent service. The service from the hostess was sub-par. read more

Seriously! Not playing the Dodger game due to corporate "orders" to keep World Cup on on all TV's!!! After going through sheer heck to get here via UBER due to street closures! According to bartender "it's the promotion!" Coming here over 45 years, never again! And you can be sure I will share this experience on my social media! read more

$12 for a Bud Light is wild but when you got Shirley behind the bar serving up a nice cold one with the Dodgers on it makes it worth it. The hospitality and conversation she brings really brings the experience together. The dim lighting and good food make for a relaxing evening. Shirley has that personality that could draw you in even if you had dinner in the dining area you want to stop by the bar to grab a quick drink and conversation. Shirley is the type to not only take care of you at the bar when you drink is getting a low but she goes above and beyond to make sure her customers get home safely. Keeping this restaurant in the rotation is easy when you can look forward to great service and food. I'll be back :) read more

Always a win! Classic Lemondrop Martini and a steak . . . You can not go wrong, ever! Been coming since I was a kid.

Went for date night and our server was amazing but the young hostess at the front kept staring at my boyfriend throughout our date and made us both VERY uncomfortable. Extremely unprofessional. She would ignore me and didn't speak to me even though the reservation was under my name. When our server asked her for help with providing another table with water, she gave him a nasty look and ignored him and our server had to handle everything himself which was disappointing. The food is very good so it's worth a try. 7/10. My lobster and scallops were overcooked and dry but everything else was good. read more

I have been coming to Clearman's for the last few years. My husband started bringing me here for our wedding anniversary, and it never disappoints. Service is always amazing, I can tell staff has been properly trained and know how to treat their guests. The cuts offered have always been cooked to the doneness requested. I also enjoy the tableside service when the food comes out. I enjoy their salad and cabbage, its sooo good. Dressings are all made in house and the pickled cabbage is perfectly sweet and tangy, love it. I have tried different items, filets, ground steaks, prime rib, coconut shrimp, steak salad, sirloin, prime rib, etc. We like Clearman's so we frequent it throughout the year. Pro-tip make your reservation on their website. When you visit make sure to take a sweater or light jacket as it can get super cold at times. You can also request to be seated by the fireplace for optimal warmth. Its dim inside to add to the romance factor or just for a special dinner. During the holidays they do put up decorations. Friday nights they have live music in their new bar area. Love it here. Attire can be casual or you can dress up. BEST LOCAL STEAKHOUSE read more

Clearman's Steak 'N Stein - Check your bread.. Moldy bread - Steakhouses Near Me - Pico Rivera, California

Not a good vibe here. I respect the older waiters for them having to still be working buuut. the service was butt. He seemed unhappy while we were nice and when i didn't need a refill on my drink he seemed annoyed lol & the only one working almost. Only nice smiling one was a younger girl that brought the food out. idk if our server was dry humor joking but didn't say jk or seem playful like some people. Food was disappointing for the price range they put it as. Had better salad & service at fast food places. they brought one persons salad instead of everyone else's at the same time, we waited for about 20 mins for the other ones. Other ones had nothing on it just cut chicken. Not worth the visit if anyone is wondering. Beautiful interior, ugly service & food read more

I came in for my birthday. I didn't have a chance to snap photos of the food because the venue is SUPER dark. It was a very romantic vibe. I ordered the steak and scallops. Steaks and scallops were finished table side which was a super nice touch. Service was excellent. There were so many sides and the steak was cooked to perfection. Cocktails were also excellent. I ordered one of each of their old fashioned cocktails. The favorite was definitely the luxardo old fashioned. Loved the place. Will be back. read more

Located in Pico Rivera is an iconic steakhouse. It has a casual, yet, upscale atmosphere. The menu has not changed over the years, you know what to expect. Good service and quality ingredients. The restaurant has a main dining room and two smaller and intimate dining rooms. You'll feel right at home with the cozy and old-fashioned furnishings and leather booths and fireplace to the right of the entrance. The portions are very generous from the humongous baked potatoes, onion rings, fried chicken, steak and lobster tail. Grilled burgers and coconut shrimp are my favorite. The signature cheesebread, purple cabbage and green salad with blue cheese dressing is to die for. You might try to save room for dessert, but I rarely do! Come celebrate special occasions or a convenient place to meet friends just 5 minutes from the freeway. You will not be disappointed! read more

My friends and I came for the 35 dollar DineLA menu and we were impressed by the quality and quantity of food and service for the price. The atmosphere was dim with a romantic ambiance. A perfect place for a date. For the first course we got the salad and cheese bread and for the entree we got the petite filet with a huge baked potato and for dessert we got the key lime pie which we had to take to go since we were so stuffed. We came on a Wednesday afternoon. The service was a bit slow but that was because there were only 1-2 servers for the whole restaurant. Aside from that our server was super attentive and accommodating even though she was swamped with other tables. Everything was served table side. The salad was super fresh and I loved the blue cheese dressing as well as the house made ranch. The filet mignon was perfectly cooked and tender. The baked potato was huge and went well with all the sour cream, cheese, and chives. We were so full that we had to take dessert home. I had the key lime pie at home and it was super light and creamy with the perfect amount of sweetness. I would 100% come back again! read more

We had a Dine LA dinner here. I had two guests. Our first time here. The place is dark inside. Some would say romantic. A nice and unique interior motif of a pub like feel. The food was underwhelming to me. My Prime Rib looked good, but was tough; in my Opinion. The quality in question. The server seems to be working the whole room and the service was at times slower than I would like. She was friendly. They have a large private parking lot. Rating: 2 1/2 to 3 Stars read more

I was a bit concerned when my friend suggested this place as it looked a bit older on the outside, however walking closer to the door, I could smell something delicious. It was really dark but the holiday lights brightened it up nicely. This place has been around for a long time and I soon realized why. This was an old school steakhouse with reddish/brown interior with comfortable seating. The staff are formal in their presentation of food. I appreciated not having to think too much about sides to order as the signature cuts - rib eye includes a house salad, cabbage, baked potato and cheese bread. It was suggested to mix some cabbage with the salad which was excellent. The cheese bread was addicting. I was worried that I would be too full for the rib eye! The waiter set up the cart pouring vodka onto the steak to light it on fire to finish it off! Such a great presentation. I was impressed! I couldn't believe how perfect my steak was prepared - a perfect medium rare! It was delicious! Melted in my mouth so tender. I haven't had this good of a rib eye in a long time at a restaurant. I couldn't finish my meal as I was stuffed! The waiter already offered to place the food into containers. My steak was still amazing as leftovers the following day! Service and food were top notch. Looking forward to coming back! read more

The food at this restaurant is amazingly delicious. Everything I've ordered throughout the many years visiting have been the best. All entrees have been seasoned to perfection !. The shrimp on a skewer the steaks are made perfect and so fresh. the taste is special. The salads they serve have the best blue cheese ever . They are also famous for their pickled red cabbage salads. Lots of people I see stop by and order salad and cabbage to go. Its their special cabbage. their cheese bread is superb !! The baked potatoes are also a specialty of their's with great fillings to order. I love their cheese butter!! The fish, Grilled Halibut and Mahi-Mahi are fresh and tasteful. I often stop by and eat by myself at the bar during the week. Bartenders have always treated me special and comfortable eating alone, when cravings for their food overcomes me. lol The place itself is a little dark. however gives you a comforting feeling of old fashioned great restaurants. I also visit their sister restaurants in Pico Rivera (steak n stein) and the Galley in Monrovia? I will post pics soon ! Its a good to place for celebratory occasions or Just because. read more
