Stutzman Brothers Steakhouse - Nappanee, Indiana

Bring the buffet back!!! Whoever made this switch ruined this place in so many ways!!!! I'm pretty sure my hash browns came from McDonald's and they just squished them up. The toast was more like croutons. The steak was dry and reheated. The eggs were overcooked. Outrageous price for the quality you offer.

The kitchen looked like a school cafeteria and the food definitely reflected that.

The manager was rude and didn't even offer an apology or decline any of my observations. Pretty sure he threw my comment card in the trash!

The training server was amazing, but her trainer was on the same scale as the manager. Because of that server and knowing she would keep the tip for the work the trainer was doing, I only left a 7% tip! I have been in the service industry for 25 years and typically do not complain.

We still paid $72+ for food that we did not even eat.

We very much enjoyed our dinner. The food was delicious and Brant was very attentive and provided great service. The grounds were beautiful and who knew we would see peacocks! Will definitely go back on our next visit to Northern Indiana.

My family and I went there last night before seeing a show at the Round Barn Theatre. I had a wagyu beef burger and it was incredible. My family had a variety of dishes and all of them were really great. And the desserts were awesome! The chocolate mousse wasn’t overly sweet like it can be - just nice and chocolaty.

Went last night with some friends. My husband got the coffee rub steak. He said there was no flavor. It also came with garlic mashed potatoes;again no flavor. Didn't have any garlic in it. All the food everyone had was bland. I don't how you can call this place a steak house;when you only have about 7 steaks to choose from. Will not be back.

The food was amazing. Our table ended up with 3 different steaks. All 3 of those steaks had such good flavor. And our waitress, she was so sweet and fun. I wish I could remember her name so I could actually mention her name on here. My whole family came with mom & dad, so we had a big group. And she did great.

The food was great and it is wonderful to finally have a place in Nappanee to a variety of steaks that are the best in town. It is definitely on its way to becoming my favorite restaurant in town. The kitchen was a little slow, although the waitress did an excellent job. The only improvement I think they could make was allowing a choice of sides instead of them being selected specifically to the entree. Look forward to many visits in the future.

This place is amazing! Food, service, and drinks were so good! It’s a big city steak house in a small town. I highly recommend! It’s so nice to have a nice steak house so close to home! Hope it’s here forever!

Quaint bar area with a nice beer, wine, and cocktail menu. I highly recommend the Pa & Ma Punch and their Moscato wine! The bartender was energetic, very nice, and fun to chat with.

The brisket potato skin appetizer was a delicious surprise that I highly recommend trying.

However, as our party of four moved to dinner service, things rapidly declined. Three different cuts of steak were ordered; 2 Filets, 1 Coffee Rubbed Ribeye, and 1 Porterhouse. A few minutes before our steaks were served, we were told the chef was not happy with the butcher's cut on the filets and that we would be receiving a 25% discount on them.

The filets (and the Porterhouse) were all served with a brown gravy on the meat (and not on the mashed potatoes right next to the meat). While they were a generous cut, I had numerous fatty pieces that I couldn't chew and had to discard them... and cutting through the remaining part of the medium cooked filet felt like I was cutting and eating an extra well-done sirloin. The other filet and Porterhouse were also disappointing. The ribeye was deemed okay, but far from really good.

We tried to end the very expensive meal on a sweet note with their Cheesecake Tacos and Creme Brule. The Creme Brule received a very good rating and the (3) "very mini" Cheesecake Tacos were a cute treat, but I'm glad I wasn't sharing them with anyone, due to their tiny size.

I really wanted to like Stutzman's Steakhouse as I work in Nappanee and the town needs a place like this. But, we shelled out a lot of money for a very disappointing meal.

I truly hope the Stutzman's work through their issues and that future customers have a better experience.
