    Kennedy's Steakhouse is a much needed addition to Eugene's restaurant scene. The ambiance and decor is beautiful, the food is excellent, and the service was absolutely outstanding. We chose to try Kennedy's for the first time for my grandmother's birthday, and they wrote her a sweet handwritten note on the table welcoming her, and seated her in the most convenient and comfortable location for her disability, even though the restaurant was nearly packed to the brim with customers. The wait staff gave wonderful recommendations, and all of the food was great and exactly as described. All 3 of us enjoyed our steaks, and somehow enjoyed our sides, drinks, appetizers, and desserts just as much (maybe even more!). I would strongly recommend the asparagus, which comes with a delicious chimichurri, and the butter cake for dessert was out of this world. Each dish is on the expensive side, but almost everything on the menu is a hearty, shareable portion. We will be back for many more special occasions!

    We had a very nice meal at Kennedy’s Steakhouse. The service struck the perfect note of attentive, but not intrusive. The table side martini service was a fun dramatic flair to the experience. I also really appreciated being able to sample the wines by the glass to help decide on what to order. The salads and sides were delicious and generous in size to allow sharing with the table. The steaks were cooked to perfection, tender, and delicious. The dining area is beautiful and comfortable. I was very impressed with the seafood selections on the menu as well, which added some local flavor to the classic steakhouse feel. Well done Kennedy’s! I hope you will be in Eugene for years to come.

    Upper scale place, food is expensive but that is usually the case with a good steakhouse. My steak was fantastic and everything we had was superb.

    Good food. But not the best price per performance type of food. They messed up how we wanted our individual steaks cooked. We were there for our 20th wedding anniversary and just didnt say anything as we just wanted to enjoy the evening. Husband wanted medium rare--it was overcooked. I wanted medium, but got medium rare. I guess we expected a great experience for the prices we were paying. We took home leftovers but our server just tossed some boxes at us as we watched another couple's food being boxed for them. Disappointed.

    First time and went for a birthday celebration! Great overall and highly recommend for a special occasion meal. We had the tar tar, oysters and fries to start- all good! Then a variety of steaks (rib eye was the table fave) and for sides we tried lobster mashed potatoes, brussel sprouts (a smidge undercooked), corn (delish!) and sautéd prawns. Dessert- crème brûlée, brownie, butter cake were all exceptional and well done. No espresso which was odd but coffee was good and dark. Wine list is extensive but not northwest focused which was disappointing given the number of local wineries and missing a good merlot option. Service was good and not rushed but we waited a bit for the final check and felt rushed to order even though they did time it well once we ordered. It was nice that the servers acknowledged how special the experience was and the service level was the best we’ve seen in Eugene. Hopefully that commitment combined with the price point is enough to make this a successful restaurant for years to come. The only negative is getting in- a reservation is a must, and they are not flexible outside of what is shown on line. Also don’t expect to have a drink pre dinner at the bar as that’s reserved too. The host stand is awkwardly placed and the restrooms were not up to par with the main dining area and need some work to leave their brewery past behind. Overall highly recommend!!
