Took the wife there a year and a half ago. Appetizers and drinks are excellent. Server was kind of a smug prick and my steak was bad. I shouldn't have to cut the filet (medium rare) hard enough to make my plate shift around.
We have since gone back to Fleming's and Mansur's. Haven't been back to Stroube's.

I have to echo the above. Service was so bad I refuse to return. Dropped off our steaks and left. We didn't have silverware. I ended up going into the kitchen and getting some. Staff just looked at me strange. Pretty messed up.

I was there a few weeks ago and had an excellent steak au poivre and the server was awesome.

I didn't particularly love the turtle soup, though. It was a bit too murky in flavor for my tastes. It wasn't terrible, though.

I haven't had the turtle soup since the chef changed, but several years ago, I enjoyed it. But it's been 3+ years since I've been in.

This is pretty spot on. Drinks/Apps are always on point but there's been something wrong with our entree both times I've been over the past year and a half or so.

I've always preferred to hammer the small plates whenever I've been there.

Walk down the street to Little Village. It's gotten much better in the last two years although I eat there at lunch more often than dinner. Decent enough wine list priced right.

We went this past Saturday.
Take the Little Village advice and enjoy.

Why do people give reviews of a place they haven't been too in several years. I think the question was "Who's Been Lately" Otherwise review is worthless.
