Die besten Steak-Restaurants in Monrovia

Our first Thanksgiving at The Derby and it is official, it is going to be our new Thanksgiving tradition. We lost our mother last year on 12/31/23 and we spent the last 22 years going to pick her up, 80miles away, and going out to eat. She hated cooking but loved good food and dinning out. This was our first Thanksgiving in 22 years that we stayed close to home and without our mom. First words out of our mouths, when we tasted the food was, “mom would have loved The Derby”, we, three grabbed our delicious cocktails and toasted to our mom’s honor. From the ease of making reservations to the prompt seating when we arrived, we enjoyed every minute. The meal was both traditional and they also offered the usual prime rib and steaks. We opted for the Turkey Thanksgiving meal. It was a generous plate of succulent turkey and the best stuffing I’ve ever tasted. Included sweet potatoes , perfectly al dente green beans, a tangy home made cranberry sauce , mashed potatoes and decadent gravy. It was all so divine. We ordered a side of Marsala mushrooms (I almost sipped the juices from the bowl because it was THAT good). The pumpkin pie Made with love and you could taste every spice. The nightcap was The Derby’s version of a spiked eggnog… oh my… I could have had three of these as my dessert…amazing. Our favorite part of our evening by far was Marta our server. She was cheerful, attentive, personable, and made us feel like we were her only table…and it was obvious she had many..yikes, the place was busy, but she made our dining experience memorable as did the rest of the staff, clearing plates, filling waters, etc. We’ve been to Ruth’s Chris, Maestros , and others for Thangsving over the 22 years we went out wit mom. Not one came close to TheDerby. Mom, would definitely be proud we found The Derby for Thanksgiving.

Enjoyed our Thanksgiving meal at FOGO! While the food is always great, we were concerned that it might be too crazy, but the staff was extra attentive & the gauchos came so fast we couldn’t keep up. As frequent diners at FOGO, we were all very impressed. Thanks for a wonderful Thanksgiving experience ❤️

The food was very good, especially the steaks But the pacing was off and my wife’s crabcake did not arrive for a good 5 minutes after the other 4 of us were served. And there was a long lag before we were even asked about dessert. Entered at 5:30, out at 8. Too long for a fine dining experience.

This experience lived up to expectations, which were high. For our golden wedding anniversary we wanted to have a special night. Alexander’s delivered exquisite food, service, and ambiance. The Chef’s Tasting proved the perfect order—no need for decision making, so we could focus on each other. And the dishes were phenomenal, each one better than the last. For an important occasion, Alexander’s can’t be beat.

Cool atmosphere and unique menu items. Very attentive
