The Peddler Steakhouse - Boone

Our group of eleven had a fantastic dinner at The Peddler. Having reservations definitely enhanced our experience. The salads were delightful, and my filet was cooked to perfection, accompanied by an absolutely amazing sweet potato. I finished my meal with crème brûlée, which was a wonderful sweet treat to end the evening. The service was impeccable, parking was convenient, and the restrooms were clean and well-stocked.

We received fantastic service from an attentive and very friendly waitress named McKenzie. Our dining experience was excellent from start to finish. A few things have changed with the new system: French onion soup is no longer included with the salad bar, and some items have been removed (I believe caviar was one of them). Nonetheless, the steaks are fresh, cut tableside, and the staff is consistently attentive throughout the meal. We’ve loved this restaurant for decades and continue to enjoy our visits every time we’re in town. **TL;DR** **Pros:** Generous portions, wide variety of salad bar options, and high-quality steaks cooked to your preference. **Cons:** Parking can get tight, but it's usually manageable. **Bottom Line:** One of our favorite restaurants in Boone, perfect for date nights or family dinners. We’ll definitely keep coming back!

Everyone in our party chose the 10oz ribeye, and it was quite a treat to have the steaks cut right at our table. I also ordered two scallops and mushrooms as my sides. The food arrived quickly—just as we finished our salads, the entrees made their appearance. The portion of mushrooms was generous and perfect for sharing. However, I was disappointed with the size of the scallops. At $3.50 each, they were the smallest scallops I have ever encountered. While they had a decent flavor, I would likely skip them on my next visit. As for the steak, it was good but not exceptional, in my opinion. It was cooked well, but there were some tough bits that were hard to chew, and it could have used a bit more flavor. Overall, it was a pleasant experience, and the service was outstanding. If you're looking for a nice and efficient dinner, this is definitely a great spot!

Husband and I were visiting from Las Vegas NV. We decided to try the Peddlers Steakhouse because of other people's nice reviews. They serve all you can eat salads and give you a list of things you can have on it. The salads are okay. The ranch dressing is watered downed so it has a different taste to it. Then if you're ordering Ribeye steak the Peddler comes to your table and cuts the size of steak you ordered right in front of you. The steaks they serve are okay. They're not seasoned well. No flavor. Our waitress was very nice and listened very well. The only thing that was rude was the tall Man in dressed up clothes comes around and ask how everything is then this man reached right over my plate and took some trash that was sitting on the left side of the table. Totally weird. Like wait until I'm finished eating. Have some manners. If this man is part of management learn some management etiquettes.

Amazing service! I wish I took photos before we devoured our food. Our drinks never got lower than 3/4 full. My three year old was upset that they didn't offer chocolate milk so much so that my husband had to take her outside to calm her down. The manager went to the gas station and got her chocolate milk! That is above and beyond and better than anywhere else I've been! The entire staff worked cohesively as a team to ensure all our needs were met. This restaurant is perfect for a date night, but also very family friendly. Highly recommended!
