The Nixon Steakhouse - Whittier

Excellent service knowledgeable, bilingual and professional staff. quality, juicy, delicate steaks, tasty sides, experienced waiters and bartenders. delicious yellowfin tuna appetizer, delicious ny strip steak and tasteful broccolini. scallops served with wonderful truffle sauce, amazing tomahawk steak and kartoffels to perfection. we're coming back.

What a pleasant experience. The proteins served here are excellent. Definitely of high quality. The first bites of my tomahawk steak, and garlic, put a smile on my face. Really enjoyed the food, and the service. The atmosphere was nice and private too. NOTE: A lot of the reviews folks have left claim prices are affordable. Please know prices are on the high side compared to the average dining. Just because those individuals, and myself, can afford the meals, doesn't mean its cheap and affordable for everyone.

Nice upscale restaurant and steakhouse in uptown Whittier. Due to covid, they have a limited menu. But, it works. They have an out door al'fresca seating area which is set up really nice. They also offer limited indoor seating. The food and service was pretty good. They servers where fast, polite and attentive. The food was really good. We ordered their Nixon 40oz tomahawk steak. But unfortunately they where out. We went of a Friday night around 830pm which is thier last seating. We settled for thier 36oz bone in porterhouse steak. As sides we tried some broccolini, mac and cheese, bacon Brussels sprouts and a wedge salad. The steak was good. It was cooked as we ordered (medium) and it had good flavor. Very tender, lean with thin fatty suprises on some bites. I think the sides really won us over. The Brussels sprouts was amazing. It was caramelized with a sweet bacon touch. I would probably go back just for that. The mac an cheese was nice and creamy. The broccolini was really good as well. It had a breading that I cant describe, but was so delicious. This is a really nice place. I would recommend it for a date night or as a good steak night with friends. Hopefully, once everything gets back to normal they will see increased traffic as it would be a shame to see them go.

Absolutely delicious food! The steak was cooked to a perfect medium rare, the sides were to die for, the drinks were great (the Old Fashion was great considering I didn't pick out the whiskey used) and the service was amazing. Yes, it's expensive, but not more than any decent steakhouse. I'm taking off a star only because the interior/decor looked dated. Not worn out, but just not as nice as I would expect for a place where 3 people can easily spend $500.

I want to love this place, I love the area and uptown needs a place like this but I just don’t get it. I have gone twice, both times the bill is over 400 dollars but it does not taste like a 400 dollar meal. Quality of the meat has been questionable and both times the steaks are not cooked as ordered. The sides are extremely oily, drinks are ok. I want to get behind this place so bad but I just can’t.
