Everything we ordered was good quality, a good value, and satisfying. The filet was perfectly cooked, seasoned, tender & delicious. We enjoyed the savory steaming hot & meaty beef & barley soup. Our Caesar salad was dressed in a creamy homemade garlicky dressing, SO good! Service was prompt & so friendly, the place was packed for a reason. This is a community gem! read more

I'm blown away. We expected a minimal amount of people enjoying dinner tonight which started at 3:00 PM. Arrived here at 3:45 PM & had a 30 minute wait before being seated. The best part of tonight's meal was our waitress Cassie. By far one of the best & most sociable waitresses we have ever had the pleasure of being served by. Kudos to Cassie. As usual our meals we're sensational. read more

Visiting from NY- we were told to visit here (for the baked beans) LOL but ended up having an incredible meal start to finish. Our waiter was great and made good recommendations. The teriyaki tenderloins were great. Soft, melt in your mouth and super flavorful. The blueberry crisp was so sweet and the perfect ending to a great meal. Highly recommend! read more

What a cool family spot for some good food. We went with no reservation for a party of 8 and got seated right away. Our server was very attentive and had great menu knowledge. huge menu selection with lots to choose from. She even made some great menu suggestions. I had the salmon, it was very tasty and cooked perfectly. The maple mustard was a good pairing, a little on the sweet side but i liked it! It also came with 2 sides so very filling. The raspberry lemonade was also very good, sweet and refreshing. All in all, a great experience. Would definitely recommend & return again read more

I was so impressed with this place! The only thing that is touch is they don't take reservations so you have to go put your name in but they have lots of spots to sit while you wait for your table. We went around 7pm on a Saturday in the winter and we only had to wait around 25mins. We got seated and our server was great! She was quick and friendly. We got an app and it came out really fast. I thought the prices were great for the amazing food. I got the filet mignon and it was cooked perfectly. All the food was so great! I'll be back even if I have to wait a while to get in! read more

After reading numerous reviews, I had really high expectation for this place. We arrived about an hour after open and we're seated immediately. First, we ordered the mussels. They weren't bad but nothing great. For our meals, my husband and I both ordered the ribeye. The steaks were cooked perfectly and had a nice char but there wasn't much seasoning/ flavor. Both steaks came with 2 sides and cost approximately $41 (market value). Overall, the meal was average. Nothing great but wasn't bad read more

Had a lovely visit with friends on Saturday Evening here, the wait was about 1 hour for our party of 5 to be seated, no reservations taken. They had picnic benches with some life-sized games covered in shade for parties waiting to be seated. They also have a bar inside that you can purchase drinks from while you are waiting. Our server Ben was very attentive and friendly. A bunch of us ordered the 7oz Petite Filet Mignon which came with two sides. I got a side salad and rice pilaf. My steak which I ordered to be medium rare was cooked more on the medium side but the meat was still very tender and flavorful. The building is historic and quite big, with several floors for seating, we were seated at the top floor which you can catch a glimpse of the water from there. Given the age of the building, the different floor levels appear to be primarily accessible by the stairs with the restrooms on the bottom floor. read more

We came here for a work function and the service, the menu and the decor were all pretty top notch. The wife and I both loved what we had to eat as it is sometimes tough going into a steakhouse as a vegan/vegetarian but the waiter and the staff accommodated very well and made our day even though we had about 15 people in the party so as a server, that can be difficult. The only drawback is the lines to wait to get in. I know we were a larger party but there were a TON of people waiting in the waiting area but also had the ability to hit the bar and have a cocktail while waiting which makes it less lengthy. We will definitely be back to this establishment next time just the two of us to get the "date" experience. read more

Best food and bang for your buck in the Ogunquit Wells area! Always busy and always a wait - BUT always worth it! Last night filet tips and baked scallops , house potato and fresh veggie. $32.00. Had a nice table upstairs in the corner - quiet and a great server! read more

We had a great meal here. The only thing that could have made it better was if it wasnt pouring and we could have tailgated in the parking lot while we waited!they are a well oiled machine here with lots of areas to sit while you wait to be seated. We got there at 5:10 and waited 30 mins for a table. We had a drink and met some new people. The food was really good and very inexpensive. The steak with the surf and turf is fillet tips. They were very good. Tonights vegetable was butternut squash. It was really good as was the baked beans. A fun experience which reminded me of the old Hilltop steakhouse in boston. read more

I'd skip the seafood. Can't beat their steaks. Been coming here for many years and I talked myself into seafood pie. Seafood tasted frozen and shrimp were those fingernail size shrimp. Heard folks complaining that steaks on the menu have gone to "market price". Bar service was slow - again, first time it was slow. Hoping this isn't the big change it felt like. read more

Update. The manager, Spenser, responded to my post this morning. luckily, his post shows more about who he is than my words, or the many poor reviews about him below, ever would. Spenser has mistaken me for the patron with who he had an altercation last evening. I was merely an eye witness to how he treated the man last night. I feel bad I didn't say something last night, so wanted to post something today on what I had witnessed. I was then going to just move on, but Spenser's aggressive, libelous response, full of lies and horrifically nasty and way too personal comments about a patron and his family, makes me angry. No one should be treated to such vitriol when they simply wanted to return a poor meal. And having been an eyewitness to how the whole thing unfolded, it's insane the lies Spenser felt a need to reply w. I don't understand!!! Most lucky of all, though, I actually videod the entire altercation, from just after the manager, Spenser, went to the customer's table to discuss the poor meal then making the man leave his table to discuss the meal privately! I imagined Spenser did that so he could mistreat the customer without witnesses (so he thought), but Spenser went way too far. The video does capture the patron at the end of the video swearing at Spenser, and that was the only truth of Spenser's response. The video captures everything Spenser said and did to the man before that point! All of which Spenser lied about w great and severe storytelling, I imagine to buffer his defense of his abhorrent and scarily aggressive behavior. I plan send the video to Spenser's family, who seem to run the restaurant w him, maybe then they'll realize and own what an unbalanced liability he is. And also to the police, because the way Spenser talked about and watched the patrons young children was threatening. Bullies should not be allowed to get away w their behaviors. I'm just lucky I have the evidence to refute Spenser's lies and dramatic nonsense. You run a lowsy, dirty restaunt, Spenser. Get a grip on your fake "power" and stop mistreating so many customers!!!! And at least when you do, own up to your disgraceful behavior and don't invent lies to make it "better". Someone is always watching, and tonight, your gross treatment of others was exposed. Happy 4th indeed! ----------- Was told the wait was 40 minutes. it was 1.5 hours. As we wrapped up the over 3 hour affair my family witnessed the manager being ruder than I have ever seen anyone be to a customer. Refused to let him return an item they didn't like. Told him he had been watching their table. mentioned he saw their daughter get up and walk away for a while and so even his daughter didn't want to sit w them. He was abusive to this poor man. I have called the owner it was so bad. I would never ever go back as no one should be treated so indecently. And the food was cheap and poor. read more

After a 5 year break we went back to see if the Steak House got better...and lo and behold it was nuch better than before. Our server Natasha got to work right away taking our our and within 10 minutes our soups arrived...(Before it took alot longer) We ordered steak which they are famous for and once again the main entree came out in record time. We were very happy at how service and food quality had gotten better. I think alot of it was we went early...real early we got there for 4 o'clock...before the big super rush. So if you want a timely wait time (we did not have one) and a nice timely served meal go early and enjoy yourself. Thank you Natasha...you made it memorable... read more

The food is good, the "No Share" policy is stupid. I'm carnivore and my wife eats the sides. She is petite so ordering for her is a waste of time and money. Also, the waitress is very slow and took way too long to ask me if I wanted another drink. So she can bag my leftovers and my wife will enjoy later. Instead of ordering another $12 beer... I'll have water... thanks What was a nice end of vacation relaxing at a nice place was turned sour The Good... my Rib Eye was tasty I'm leaving this while I sit in their bar. read more

If you want to go out for cocktails this is NOT the place, you are not welcome there. We went in for a drink. I heard the hostess tell the people in front of me that was an hour long wait for the restaurant. But that didn't matter because we just wanted to sit at the bar, which was half empty, and was told I couldn't have just a drink I had to order a whole meal. So they asked me to leave because I didn't want to eat. Wtf? read more

Despite it taking time to be acknowledged at our table we had a fantastic time! Food was delicious as always. It is Simplistic which is what I appreciate. You don't have to do anything crazy with steak, keep it simple and let the cut of meat shine! Due to it being spring it was busy but not the usual crazy busy with allowed us to appreciate the dinner more. I loved that we were sat upstairs it is just so much nicer in my opinion. It is always nice to see some of the same faces, it truly speaks volumes for the restaurant to have repeat staff season after season! read more

This place is top notch in my book. After a very minimal wait, we were cheerfully seated. We both ordered Surf & Turf - steak and lobster tail and steak and scampi shrimp. My friend and I both agreed it was one of the best meals we have had in a long time. Everything from the salad to the delicious apple sauce was perfect. Steak was properly cooked and the seafood at its best. My favorite place in Wells. read more

Had dinner and two drinks at the bar. For the first time shared a meal for medical reasons and was informed there was a six dollar plate charge. Really with one modest meal and two drinks and gratuity we spent over seventy dollars. Only one meal We felt ripped off. After many years of eating at the Steakhouse House in Wells ME. Never again read more

I was very disappointed with my recent visit to The Steakhouse in Wells. The fact that they do not take reservations creates ridiculously long lines, which is a major turnoff. Many of their guests are older and are forced to stand outside for extended periods just to get in. Once seated, the service was no better. Our server, Ben, was unfamiliar with basic ingredients in several dishes and had to leave the table to ask someone else each time we had a question. That lack of knowledge is unacceptable in a restaurant of this type. On top of that, we had to wait more than once just to get refills, to-go boxes, and a bag, things that should be simple and prompt. Overall, the poor organization, lack of staff training, and long, inconvenient wait times left us very underwhelmed. Definitely not worth the hype. read more

We stop here every year and the food and service NEVER disappoint! This year, the food came out so hot and perfectly cooked and completely delicious! I don't know how they do it! Our waiter was a joy and we love the ambiance. This is a do not miss restaurant. There is generally a wait but it is SO worth it! read more

This past summer was our second visit to The Steakhouse. Crazy wait times, but solid food. I started with the French onion soup, which was flavorful and filling. I had the ribeye with the "house potato" and mixed veggies. I wasn't really a fan of the house potato. I can't really explain it. Sort of like a twice baked potato, but pretty bland. Veggies were nice and steaks were cooked to our liking. Wait time for food was also pretty long, but the place was packed and I give the servers alot of credit as there is a whole second floor of seating that they need to carry the food up to. They must be exhausted at the end of their shifts. We will continue to visit when we are in the area. read more

Have been coming here since the day it opened. Never had a bad meal or experience. Just a little disappointed it's not opened today 5/24/26?

If I could give 10 stars I would literally give 10 stars. There will be a line, especially if you're trying to go right on time to avoid the crowd, you're going to run into a crowd. However, once you get in it goes pretty quickly and they sit you down very quickly once you wait. While you are outside, there are games like connect four and cornhole for your kids. Our service was absolutely outstanding and I made sure to tell her that. She knew it was our first time and she was very friendly. She gave us all her recommendations and she was super nice to my kids. She knew every answer to every question. The place is absolutely gorgeous and makes you feel like You are at a barn wedding which I love. It's nice lighting and the whole place is just gorgeous and runs like a really well oil machine. Going to the food. I think I ate so much food. I got the fried mushrooms and they were delicious. Perfectly crisp and good inside. I also had virgin mudslides which was my favorite. I love their mocktail options. More places should have that. My son got chicken fingers and fries which were delicious. I got the teriyaki steak. It was a little overdone. That was the only complaint I had because it was a little char on the outside however it was still very delicious. My mom had the country steak and she thought it was delicious with the gravy. I got the baked potato which was very good too. My mom loved her french onion soup and said it was perfect. We couldnt get dessert because our belly was full I would definitely be back over and over again! read more

I'm immensely disappointed in this. We went here because everyone raced about it and how good it is. We got there early to wait in line which is fine cause it filled up fast. We got seated and the waitress was super nice and made the experience a lot better . I started off with a cup of lobster soup. It had a lot of lobster in it but the broth was literally the butter you would dip it in with some cream. One person got the lobster pie and it just tasted bad. The wine sauce was not cooked enough and tasted like white wine. And was cold. The seafood pie was bland. I got a steak which was cooked well . I also ordered a margarita and it just tasted like juice . In the end the hype was not worth it. Seems like the place is just for old people and nostalgia read more

For our last dinner during our Ogunquit vacation, we went to The Steakhouse after hearing it was one of the top 10 steakhouses in New England and number 1 in Maine. We waited about an hour to be seated, but once we got to the table, the food came out quickly and our server took great care of us. I was really craving cheese for an appetizer, so I had the mozzarella sticks, and the marinara sauce was pretty basic, but I wouldn't expect that to be the speciality of a steakhouse. My husband enjoyed his French onion soup and the A5 Wagyu Ribeye special, and since I had already done a steak dinner earlier on the vacation, I opted for the unique chicken scampi. Everything was tasty, including our house salads and rolls. I would definitely be curious to come back and try a steak dinner myself, but I can see why it's such a busy place! Really cool vibe in an antique barn setting. read more

I don't understand the 3.5 stars overall score. I have dined here throughout the years and am always treated well. Service is outstanding. Value for the food is off the charts both meat and seafood. Are people actually ticked off you may have to wait a bit to be seated? Sit down, enjoy your company and have a drink. We come to the area every year and never miss coming here. Bravo Steakhouse! read more

On Saturday Sept 27 my wife stopped in for dinner. My steak was tough and barely able to chew it. When our server finally showed back at our table to see how we were doing 20 minutes after delivering our dinners. I told her about my dissatisfaction with the steak. I asked her to try to cut it she refused . She took it back to the manager, he said he could cut it and I had to pay for it, which I did and tipped the server. Long wait to be seated, slow service and a bad meal. This was my last time patronizing this establishment. read more

The Steakhouse is our favorite restaurant in Wells. Their speciality is steak of course, yet they also serve exceptional seafood, chicken and ribs, too. My husband had the steak tips with stuffed shrimp and I dined on the steak tips with a stuffed lobster tail. Our steaks were prepared as requested and the Gorgonzola butter that accompanied the steak was melt in your mouth good. The shrimp and lobster tail were perfectly prepared and complimented our steaks beautifully. There are several side offerings to choose from. My husband and I both ordered a tossed salad and the cottage cheese with a pear half. They are generous with their side portions and are made with high quality ingredients. Our entire meals were fantastic and our server Ben was polite, professional, and provided outstanding service. Always a pleasure to dine at the Steakhouse. read more

Waited 2 hours to be seated* but it was WORTH IT. *Large party on a holiday weekend, and we were told the wait would be 90min - 2hr so not a surprise. We've been several times and The Steakhouse always delivers. First come, first serve and no reservations so be ready to wait but they have 2 1/2 bars to keep you limber. French onion soup and caesar salad are solid starters. So much parmesan! Onion rings are unreasonably good. Excellent batter & fry, you'd think you were at a fried seafood place. Sirloin is good. Filet is always a safe bet. Boneless ribeye was meh but their "chef signature cut" rotating selection bone-in ribeye was phenomenal. Perfecf mid rare cook, nice crust. Best steak I've ever had that wasn't $75+ Always go surf and turf. Baked stuff shrimp was also unexpectedly good. BBQ beans side are loaded with meat and delicious. Apple sauce is straight up apple pie filling. Picking only 2 sides is IMPOSSIBLE. Even the duck, you can't go wrong (except maybe the spaghetti and meat sauce...) Best of all? Steak is marked as MKT price but it's always reasonably priced. Maybe not the fanciest or most sophisticated restaurant in the Wells/Ogunquit area but definitely one of the best. read more
