The Butchers Steakhouse

Went here on 12/17/2025, definitely on odd twist to the food. It’s was good tho. Got steaks , the chicken poppers, cigars, FF which were soggy and Veggies. We even have the soufflé cake and churros for dessert … Had a great time with the fellas. Marble walls, very boujee. BYOB.. 20% added onto the check and also $10 Saratoga water was added even tho we didn’t drink it . But as soon as I saw that it was added and we had to pay for it , I cracked that thang open.

If you keep kosher and live in Deal NJ, you've basically got two options for meat sit-down restaurants, and this one is worth checking out. They do steak really well, and for the mains we were able to split two large 20-24 oz cowboy and Delmonico steaks across four people. Both were bone-in, and we had to send the Delmonico back as it was a bit too red for us (we asked for medium). However, they were both very good cuts, tons of marbling and cooked with a nice sear.!

With any sit down kosher restaurant in the area, 20% gratuity is included, regardless of service quality. This place is also BYOB, so you can at least drink while you wait (they do not have a liquor license). The service was about average speed on a busy Thursday night when the entire outdoor area was full. Felt like guests were waiting for a long time for their food, but the servers were really nice - it's just that there were probably not enough of them.

There's no defined drink menu, and there should be, at least for non alcoholic drinks. There's also not a single protein item for a vegetarian or pescetarian. Tuna steak? Nope. Salmon? Nope. Veggie burger? Nope. Also, while the salads were excellent, the apps were just about average and too expensive for what they are. Where are the good Steakhouse sides we crave? Brussels sprouts? They need work in this area.

Total came out to about $200 a couple, without liquor, which I feel was a lot, considering the ambiance was literally a New Jersey Transit railroad track. All in all, it was a good experience, just be prepared to temper your expectations a bit.

Update: James is the best server they have he's awesome! Came here twice in a month, it's a solid spot in Deal.

Food was amazing. Meat was all very tender. However, the service was certainly lackluster. It was incredibly slow and there were at least 2-3 employees needed just to serve a small table. No one read us the Specials despite reading them off for other tables, nor did they inform us that the bottled water on the table was charged rather than complementary. A table next to us experienced poor service and raw chicken. Also, they pay no attention to special requests when you make a reservation. They almost served my partner dessert that potentially had nuts despite us mentioning it while booking the reservation and after being seated. Food was great and I recommend it. Service was poor so just expect that. Overall 3/5.

Awesome place and amazing service. My server Hugo is amazing.i love this place. I will surely come back.

I went there for my anniversary and we were not disappointed at all. The ribs were incredible and i would definitely get them again, the truffle fries were perfectly made, the pulled beef tacos and chicken marsala were really good too. The lemon nana drink was very refreshing.

Service was really good, always attentive and seeing if we needed anything else but not annoying. Food was brought out really fast.
