Ponderosa Steakhouse Review

Amazing staff! Awesome food! Great drink selections!

Crab portabella and loaded mashed potatoes were great. Onion loaf appetizer wasn't really a loaf but very tasty.

Very friendly, clean but overpriced for what you receive and small portions.

Fantastic food with an excellent beer, wine and spirits list

Brunch was on point. Loved the bartender and had an excellent meal!

Food was great but they either need more waitresses or more cooks. We waited 45 minutes on our food

I told the chef this was the best steak I have had in more then 10 years and I wasn't lying. I did not get any adder on my steak (blue cheese, etc), but man..perfectly seasoned. Very tender. I will be dreaming about that steak for years to come. Kokomo knows steak.

Great food and environment! My wife and I love to eat here!

I just rate this place as average in terms of food flavor. Seamed the steak was just bathed in Worchester sauce before and during cooking. Mashed potatoes were extremely good and a must have if you dine here. Price was way high for what I was expecting. Atmosphere was neat in that this is an old train depot and the wood is old and it creeks a lot. They have some obscure craft beers on hand for the beer connoisseur!

I had the New York Strip last night...perfectly cooked and delicious! This was EASILY the best meal that I've had in Kokomo.

Most people in Kokomo assume if the napkins aren't paper than it must be 'fine dining'. The prices are on point for the caliber of food they serve. If you want roadside diner prices, it's best to go to a roadside diner. Remember the saying..."You get what you pay for." I think some folks that have the complaint of this place being too expensive have been swayed by their personal biases against "fancy" restaurants. Marble is NOT fancy but it IS fair!

Service, food, drinks, atmosphere : all 5 stars!

Everything was excellent. Food presentation is great.

My wife and I went for date night. Service was good. Food was AMAZING! Can't wait to go back.

I had the worst food poisoning after leaving and both steaks were cooked wrong . So instead of a new steak he threw the one he brought back on grill or whaterwh they used and it came out almost well

A joke

Way over priced, small portions and the food isn't that great. Won't go here again.

Very good food, portions are a little small for the price. Service was excellent.

Really good food. I had the lamb shops and my partner had the grouper. Both dishes were perfectly cooked with beautiful flavors. The place did not get the five stars due to the casual nature of service you hope to avoid with a 70 per head ticket. Other tables were being sprayed down next to us while eating as if we were at Chilis. So far the best in Kokomo fine dining I think.

Wow!! It was amazing. I really enjoyed all the food and atmosphere. We had the 10oz filet, mac and cheese, porterhouse, onion straws, and truffle fries. The alcohol drinks were not up to par,but everything else was delicious. It is pricey and expensive.

Excellent Kokomo needs to support this fine establishment. Would highly recommend going for that special occasion!

Gotta love the Sunday brunch here and the wide variety of beer definitely one of my all time favorite places to be friendly staff and a nice down home place!! Worth a try for any food lover!

Been there 2x for brunch. Different dishes on the menu each time and was not disappointed

Service was very bad. Food was terrible. Prices were way to high. Don't go.

Steaks, at the steakhouse, were overcooked and other steaks were out of stock. We had poor service and when I went to show what needed adjusted on our bills one of the managers SNATCHED them out of my hands. This "fine dining" place was anything but... I would not recommend this place to anyone! Go spend your money somewhere else that appreciates your business.

The steaks are delicious, the delmonico steak it's best by far. Love the crab Mac-N-cheese. Remember the restaurant has FRESH products so if they have run out of items or have taken like the snapper off the menu, they have a good reason too. Service is ok.

Exceptionally good food. The crab bisque is creamy and has cayenne pepper in it so it is spicy. The French fries were cooked to perfection and seasoned well. They were out of the truffle sauce for the fries and substituted it with hollandaise sauce and it was delicious. The crab cakes are a generous size and are served with sliced red pepper, onion and cucumber. The service was impeccable. Its a little pricy but we'll worth the cost.

Went with family for wife's birthday. Nice ambiance, however couple things that frustrated me.
1. Slow service, waiter wore street clothes seemed nonchalant.
2. Wife ordered scallops. $23 for 3 whole scallops! C'mon, WTH?
Suggestion: Review your menu, ensure you're giving patrons value for their $$$. You're in Kokomo IN!
Spent $187 for 4 with 1 drink!
Disappointing.

Great food, great beer, and friendly staff. Whether you're alone and want to have a meal and a drink with a friendly bartender, or sit at a table with some friends, this is one of the few places in this town that I would highly recommend.

Love the Satay and the 5-0 shrimp. Highly recommend.

Perfectly cooked Berkshire pork chop. Best high end food in Kokomo at reasonable prices.

Good food and service. The best lamb chops I've ever eaten. I definitely recommend everyone to try it out but its not for us. I'm a simple seasoning person their flavors are more complex than I'm used to. Glad we went and as I said I recommend. Servers are friendly and attentive as well.

Great staff and the stakes are awesome highly recommend eating their awesome awesome food very well seasoned and the staff is just terrific

Did not like the food at all and it is outrageously priced

We made reservations for 16 celebrating our parents 50th anniversary. The hostess had reserved an area in the front and we loved it! Every steak was perfectly seasoned and grilled! Our waitress was very accommodating. Great job, Marble!!

Was told on the phone it was a 15 minute wait and then when I got there I was told they were booked out on reservations. They made room for us anyway which was nice. Food was good drinks were good also

The food and service is awesome, but it's an updated old building with original windows; so it's really cold on the south end. Plug in heaters on the floor or insulated window inserts (or both) would be nice. We'll be back in the summer.

Great food. Great atmosphere. Check out their brunch.

Best restaurant in town. Food was perfect, server was very nice and professional. If you want to sit inside on a weekend make a reservation.

5 Stars all the way, the food and service is Amazing. great wedge salads and you have to try the Beef Satay (Med) it is melt in your mouth. great selection of beers and a full bar. I read some of the other reviews people wrote and don't believe them..those people don't know what good foo is, they complained about the price....after all this is a Steakhouse. My wife and I eat there at least every 2 weeks. Highly recomend this place

Everytime this place exceeds expectations.. great service, great food!

Wonderful food! Nothing like it in Kokomo. Safe yourself the trip to Indy for a great dinner!

Great Steak, amazing service, and beautiful ambiance. Highly recommend Marble!

Had heard nothing but good things about Marble The Steakhouse so we decided to visit for our Valentines Day date. A couple of personal observations; first; the staff was dressed in street clothes with nothing significantly obvious that denoted them from any other customer in the restaurant. Second, it is obvious that steps have been taken to convey a high end experience. Amazing interior and furnishings, very nice cutlery and dishes and yet, water is served in Bud and Bud light glasses that look like leftovers from another restaurant. They look out of place and slightly take away from the upscale feeling. We started with the Parmesan fries and then each had boneless rib-eye. The fries were very good and the rib-eyes were perfectly cooked and seasoned. Every weekend we go to dinner and every weekend for years and years I have ordered a Bloody Mary. The Bloody Mary I had here was all but flavorless and was the very first one I have ever had that did not come with some type of garnish of olives, pickles or more. I got two lemon slices. Really? Two lemon slices? This needs fixed. Though the quality of all the food was very very good, for the portions you get the menu could use a small downward adjustment. And although the service was 5 star worthy, after adding it all up, the total overall experience fell a little short of expectations.

The food was not bad. Service sucked and the prices were out of control.

I had the special although the flavor was very good the chicken itself was over cooked and very dry the corn side was very lack luster as well.

Superb dining experience! Excellent food, quiet atmosphere, quaint decor.

#1 heartiest crab cakes. Better than Amalfi Coast, S Florida or So Cal. I am very impressed!
I was also surprised it comes with a side. Choose the brussel sprouts. They prepare ideally: crisp, and buttery with a bit of bacon.
Libby the bar server made everything possible.
Then you for this pleasant surprise, Kokomo!

Food was delicious, service left something to be desired.

White truffle fries excellent, steak perfectly cooked. Good cuts of meat.

The porterhouse for two is the best date night meal in Kokomo. Honestly, I've never tasted a better steak and the J Edwards chocolate cake for dessert was to die for.

No takeout, even during the pandemic that they were "closed for" even though it's still going (and may be worse than before). Limited menu to Tin Man that doesnt even include a steak even though they are a steakhouse.

Delicious food in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere! The steaks flavorful and cooked to perfection. They also had a wide variety of beers and drinks to choose from. We will definitely be returning.

Very pleasant atmosphere and nice decor ! Good service and menu was also pleasant! Affordable for a nice experience!!

Great steaks and salad. An odd smell. Great service

Best steakhouse in town and the drinks a phenomenal.

Tried it twice with the same outcome. Absolutely terrible food at high end prices, would not recommend.

Our waitress was super sweet and friendly. The shrimp cocktail and portobello mushroom cap were delicious

Food is way overpriced and everything we had was terrible with the exception of the steaks. If you'd like to spend way to much money for a steak by all means go here. Otherwise just go to Texas Roadhouse.

This is a needed up scale dinning option in Kokomo. The restaurant is in a former train station, and has great ambiance. Our waitstaff helped us decide on a wine that we could share and it was at a very reasonable price. We both ordered the More

If you want great food and at a great price this is it. If you are looking for a $9.99 steak special you should prob look somewhere else.

I've had nearly everything on the menu and been there with lots of different people. Everyone always has nothing but great things to say about their experience.

What makes it even better is seeing the owner and the chef's serving tables and talking to the guests. Highly recommended!

We've never been disappointed with a meal from Marble. Always delicious and they have a great beer selection.

Went here with my girlfriend expecting delicious food and good service and got anything but. Steak was over cooked and mushroom dish was covered in grose sause that made me nauseous for hours. Overpriced and not worth it.

Service (Zoe) is awesome...food is awesome highly recommend.

This place was very nice. Service was on point everything was smooth no long waits however, I did come at a less busy time. The only thing I'd say more on the expensive side of thing for me and my wife 76$. If you want to take you lady to somewhere very nice and good atmosphere this is a good place to do say in all 4 out of 5 good job .

This place was over priced and the food was not worth the wait or the price. For starters, our waitress was absent most of the time and also didn t pay very close attention to what we were saying to her. I brought up having gluten and dairy allergies, well aware that in a steakhouse cross contamination is inevitable and she even explained that. She then proceeded to offer us bread and butter as an appetizer while we decided what to order. She helped us answer questions that we had about the menu. We ordered a steak, medium-rare and the portobello mushroom entree. The steak came out medium-well and the mushrooms were drenched in an aioli that had also been garnished with dill. I don t know what was in the aioli but the combination of flavors does not work well together and The taste was nauseating. We also ordered brussels sprouts unaware that it comes covered in cheese and bacon bits. The bacon bits are fine but having a dairy allergy and receiving something covered in cheese isn t good. We will not be coming back here.

The atmosphere is relaxing and neat. Service was courteous and professional. Side dishes were delicious. However the steak was so disappointing! I ordered medium, it came out well done. I have never sent a steak back but for $30, I was going to this time. I got a new steak and it was still well done with a ton of seasoning on it. Wasn't juicy and I could taste was salt. For a steakhouse, very dissatisfied.

I liked the food. The smores biscuit was especially good.

Lovely experience, delicious food, the wine was great and wonderful service

Amazing food. Never get tired of going here. Try their brunch on sundays

Been to Kokomo many times for work but first time at this restaurant. Great craft beer and bourbon selection. Amazing food and service. I highly recommend.

The food and service are wonderful at Marble. We ve had 3 meals at Marble now and it s always delicious. Drinks are very reasonable. Great beer selection. We re still waiting on the gastro pub menu though. Yes, it does cost more than the chain steakhouses but the food actually tastes fantastic! Make a reservation and give it a try!

Nice restaurant but more expensive than I bargained for. Need some menu options under $18.
