    We have been going to The Steak Loft since the early 2000s. It's a good meal in a convenient location if you are at Olde Mystick Village. More updates to the decor is needed it is very dated but the food is decent and service has always been good.

    Good food and service, but the Steak Loft needs a serious refresh - worn paint, dirty rugs, dirty windows. Disappointing that it’s been let go.

    We enjoyed a nice slow and quiet dinner at Steak Loft with our 7-month-old. The atmosphere was dark and cozy, fitting the old-school steakhouse feel of the restaurant, and the food didn't disappoint. Although the noise level was moderate, we were placed in a quiet section of the restaurant where our baby was able to fall asleep while we enjoyed our dinner, and we even got to share dessert!

    Our waitress Lauren greeted us like a friend we'd known for years, and that warmth set the tone for the entire meal. The 11oz top sirloin was lean and cooked medium rare to perfection, exactly as ordered. We finished with the flourless chocolate torte, a rich and satisfying way to end the night. Everything about the food and service was outstanding. Highly recommend.

    I haven’t been to this restaurant in over 33 years. We were initially seated in a room off of the main dinning area. Unfortunately, a musty smell was very dominant. The hostess happily accommodated my request to be seated in the main dinning area using the same waiter. The service by Doug was outstanding. The dinners were excellent (steak teriyaki & steak & stuffed shrimp combo) & cooked to perfection. The bread pudding was awful which I brought to the waiter’s attention but the flourless cake was rich & delicious. When I received the bill, the waiter had removed the bread pudding from the bill which I appreciated. The atmosphere was cozy. If you’re in the mood for a good steak, I would highly suggest this restaurant. The location is nice & convenient to getting off & back on to Route 95.
