Reviews for Clayton Steakhouse in Clayton, NC

I enjoyed my food! My family used to go here years ago until we slowly stopped coming, but we came back tonight for dinner. It... was very good. My steak was cooked the way I asked (medium well) which is uncommon even at steak places (it's always underdoneor well done) and the salad bar was fully stocked! My sweet potato fries were great as well, not under done and even somewhatcrunchy. The same enjoyment can be said for the other members of my party. The wait staff was great as well, our waiter checkedon us frequently and refilled our drinks without us asking. A member of my party ordered coffee, and his first cup was cold, sohe asked another waitress if he could get a hot cup and she got it to him immediately. Unfortunately, as they were busy and wehad no reservation, we were seated right beside the drink station, bill processing and kitchen doors. The constant hustling andbustling around us made for a bit of an uncomfortable seating, but it was understandable (as genuinely every other table forfour was seated.) For a full house, the food was also out in a timely manner. On the pricier side (as it is a steakhouse) butdefinitely made for good food! Read more

We rarely ever get such bad value for the money, the cost of our meal warranted a much better experience. We are so... disappointed. Atmosphere is lacking and completely outdated. We were seated next to the drink station and near the salad bar.Not that any seating in the establishment appeared to have any ambience. I should have turned us around and gone across thestreet to the fair going on to get better fare. There is a lackluster, limited, almost bonanza style menu. Everything isoverpriced and under delivered. The only thing saving this from getting a one star is my NY Strip was grilled to perfection.Albeit way overpriced. Our drinks tasted disgusting and seemed to have no alcohol in them at all. Considering there areoutstanding dining options within walking distance. Just go anywhere else, or cook at home. To the owners: Please considerupdating your dining room and menu. If people are going to spend $50 a person eating out and having just one drink, you shouldoffer more or lower your prices significantly. We came in for a special occasion and left with a bad taste in our mouths. Read more

Went in a few days ago. food is good, steak was cooked to temp and tasted great. Service was mediocre though as our server... Michelle seemed annoyed that we were there. It was evident when they were ready to leave as she went to doing side work at8:05pm but their hours state they?re open until 8:30pm. Hopeful this experience was a one off as we really wanted to love it. Read more

Attentive staff and good food - generous portions for sure!

By far the finest pork chop plate I have ever had in my life. I've had hamburgers that were not that tender before. Menu is... limited and quite pricey. Definitely family oriented family friendly and service is five Star Plus. Read more

Amazing! I am picky about my steaks. I eat them medium and i don't want to need steak sauce to enjoy it and this place... delivered! Absolutely amazing ribeye and NY strip! Good options on their salad bar and their homemade ranch is so good! Willdefinitely be back! Read more

Five stars when it's Friday night after 6pm and you walk in and seating for 2 only takes 20 minutes, when every other steakhouse... around said 1 hr to 45 mins. And when we arrived it didn't even take 20 minutes we were seated immediately. The waitresses wereon point and busy serving the customers while being friendly they didn't waste time. I ordered the 8 Oz ribeye and my hubbyordered the special the "Cowboy" a bone in ribeye that try as he might he couldn't finish and had to bring it home. We bothasked for steak sauce A1 and Heinz 57, and neither one of us used them, the steak was that well seasoned. Sweet potato andsautéed green beans were cooked very well. And my hubby tried to order dessert but his choice of the raspberry cream cheese piewas sold out. We enjoyed our meal, the restaurant was more roomy than we thought, and we didn't have to wait forever for aFriday dinner out! Read more

Excellent food The salad bar was very fresh and some of the salad dressings like there ranch is made in house. I usually don?t... order steak bc the flavor I get at home is usually not there. There?s stakes are very tender and flavorful. Ask for Celine foryour server she is awesome. Don?t forget to ask for the strawberry pie. It?s like a milkshake in pie form my wife said Read more
