5 Best Steakhouses near Knightdale

“First time here and it won't be our last. Initially the wait time was said to be 45 minutes, but it was really 5. It took a long time for our salads to come out so we were still eating them when our entrees came. I couldn't finish my wedge salad because of the timing. My drink was fine, nothing special. Will likely return for a steak dinner with the family.“

“4/25/24 Update: Visited Longhorn again for an early dinner with a friend. My wife and I ordered Flo's steak. My wife's dinner was great. My steak was ordered medium. Regrettably it arrived done. My sweet potato was lukewarm and slightly undercooked. My salad was good. Since in the past Longhorn meals have been great, I lowered my rating by only one star, hoping this one was a fluke.3/6/23: Visited Longhorn on dinner date with my wife. As always Flo's steak with baked sweet potato was very good. The bonus this visit was our waitress Leigh. She was attentive to our needs while not interrupting my wife and my conversation. Leigh carried a good conversation. Very nice Leigh. Thanks.< 3/6/23: Stopped by for late lunch at 2:30. Good service (Erin), good food (steak).“

“This is the best Outback, our takeout was perfect and the girls at curbside were so nice and I received excellent customer service. The owner of this Outback is amazing - she goes above and beyond to ensure the customers are happy and has such a positive attitude...very down to earth and genuinely cares about the food quality and hospitality. She cane out to curbside as busy as she was to hear my great feedback and was very appreciative. Excellent all the way around! Highly recommended“

“I went to Clayton Steakhouse on Friday with my husband, our infant, and my parents; we had a GREAT experience! The restaurant setting is casual but cozy, very warm and welcoming. I called at 4:30 to make a reservation for 5:00 and they were able to accommodate us without hesitation. It did, however, get busy a bit later! I can see why! We were seated instantly and Lisa, our wonderful waitress greeted us. We ordered wine as they have quite a few great options, and she provided us with water. She then told us about the features and how the menu works. We started with Shrimp Diablo, a featured appetizer. This dish was amazing! A flavorful and buttery order of pan seared shrimp, with the perfect amount of spice! This was served with toast, perfect for dipping! The appetizer list wasn't extensive by any means, but I think the feature appetizer and salad bar made up for it! On to the entrées! My dad and I ordered a steak, and my husband and mom the tilapia. All of the entrées came with Texas toast, a side, and unlimited salad bar. The salad bar was SO good; it was fresh and the homemade ranch dressing was 10/10! I tried some of the tilapia and it was delicious, fresh and flavorful, perfectly cooked! The side of green beans that my husband ordered = also delicious! Saving the best review for last: my steak. I ordered the 8 oz filet and for me this was a risk. I have bad luck with steaks at restaurants. Order it medium, get it medium rare or well done. Order it medium rare, get it close to rare. FINALLY! I order a steak (medium rare) and it was cooked PERFECTLY. So tender, flavorful, and delicious. It was so nice to not have to send a steak back. The menu even states exactly the temperature and what that will look like. I ordered a baked potato with mine, and it was great; served with butter and sour cream. I was holding my daughter, so I asked my mom to get me some shredded cheese off the salad bar for my potato. Out of nowhere, one of the magical waitresses just popped up and said "I can grab it for you!" Lastly, we tried a few desserts, and they were, surprise, delicious! The chocolate cake was moist and amazing. I got the coconut pecan pie to go, and I will try that tonight! I would highly recommend the Clayton steakhouse! The atmosphere is no frills yet cozy, and the service and food was five stars! I can't wait to go back, and we will soon!“

The drinks are made fresh daily too, the kool aid is my favorite & The two men that run the place are the greatest, they have the best services & will make sure you are taken care of!!

If you in a mood for a good Philly or chicken Philly I say this place is the go to. Anyone says anything opposite of this review is lying. Lol Everything was so good I forgot to take a picture!“
