The new addition has made a strong impression thus far, with a four-star rating out of four reviews on Yelp.

Tony R., who was the first Yelper to review the new spot on Jan. 7, wrote, "This place knows their meat and how to make their steaks melt in your mouth. I just had their regular bone-in ribeye and it was delicious. Their sides are good portions for two and very good."

Yelper Steve P. added, “We've come to love this place. We've been twice and loved it both times. It's not cheap, but they have an interesting menu. Wine is reasonably priced and the sommelier is very helpful. Steaks have been cooked perfectly.”

Intrigued? Stop in to try it for yourself. Knife Steakhouse Plano is open from 11 a.m.–10 p.m. Monday-Thursday, 11 a.m.–11 p.m. Friday and Saturday, and 11 a.m.–9:30 p.m. on Sunday.

The new spot is off to an uneven start with six reviews on Yelp, but it's still early days.

Yelper Natalie N., who reviewed it on Jan. 19, said, "They have a great menu. I can see a lot of people complaining about the long wait, but I didn't think it was terrible after ordering a sandwich and chai tea. Both were good and I will use this spot to take a break in between my shopping. "

Clara G. wrote, "My coffee was delicious and worth the wait. If it hadn't been for the unfriendly encounter I had, I would probably be back today for another one."

Grab a cup of Joe from 9 a.m.–9 p.m. Monday-Saturday and 11 a.m.–6 p.m. on Sunday.
