American Steakhouse - Meriden

I love this place... my only complaint is that the salad bar is still closed. It's a little, but it's always been good. PLEASE reopened. My family goes to the buffet down the street instead of coming here where we would prefer.

Fast, friendly affordable service with very tasty cooked to order a la carte beef, chicken, seafood an dessert selections. (a baked potato, slice of texas-toast an snip of fresh parsley is included with your selected protein dish)

We went last week to our Meriden staple. It was horrible and disappointing. The only reason we stayed was that it was my son's birthday and he wanted to go. We've been going for my whole life, that will be the last. They still charge for the buffet, there is no buffet. You're allowed 1 pre-made salad- no choice of items- and 1 pre-scooped mac or potato salad. There are a couple soups, tortilla chips and sauce where the salad bar was, but someone will scoop what you can have. They now charge extra for the cheese that used to be in the salad bar. The only thing that was decent was the baked potato. If I could give it zero I would. Don't waste your time or money.

Great. Haven't had this in over 9 years. Only bad thing is no salad bar.

Overall is a good experience, the staff is friendly. Food taste great. But still no salad bar?! All other salad bars/ buffets had lifted restrictions, so please stop with the covid excuses. If your not bringing it back, just say so. In my case the small pre-made portion aren?t good, salads have cucumbers which I?m allergic to. The pasta I was served in a previous visit had too much sauce. What a shame. The prices are the same but we are getting less. If you are so concerned why not provide gloves and plastic utensils for the salad bar.
