Black Cow Chophouse 420 West Main Street, Charlottesville, VA 22903

"This meat place is exactly what you are hoping for, meat person, trying to convert a vegetarian to your evil savage ways. :-) Excellent cuts, cooked to juicy, succulent, mouth watering perfection. Choose from 8 oz to a whopping 32 oz (if you dare). I recommend the filet mignon because I believe in quality over quantity.... yummmeh. Just look at the pictures...The sides are also terrific. Sprouts delicious. Would have liked to taste more lobster in the pricey lobster mac and cheese. Were made to wait 15 mins past our reservation... but will return!"

"Its like the kind of meal you want on the last day of your life! We had the smoked oysters, house salad, boneless ribeye, lobster mac and cheese, brussel sprouts, smashed red potatoes and the crème brulée. My husband loved his neat pour of EH Taylor, and the mint espresso martini was the best I've had! Julie took spectacular care of us at the bar-- we WILL be back!!"

"The food was so, soooo good. Best I've had in a while. Service was prompt, friendly, and attentive. It's a bit higher-priced than some other places in the area, but it's well worth it for the quality of ingredients, preparation, and overall experience. I can't wait to go back and try different cuts!"

"We stopped in from out of town. Overall a great meal. This definitely doesn’t have the vibe of a traditional steakhouse. Take that for what it is and make your own call but the food was incredible. If you don’t order the lobster Mac and cheese, you’ve missed the mark. All the steaks were perfectly done. Great cocktails and wine. We will be back for sure"

"Oh, hell yes! We were so excited to try this new spot in Charlottesville. It did not disappoint. We started with salads, then Steak Tender, Saffron Risotto and Norwegian Salmon. We had the Lobster Mac & Cheese (the best!), mushroom Ragout, and string fries. The wine list is amazing and the cocktails are top notch. Don’t miss this hot spot!"
