Great steakhouse
Tuesday, October 11, 2005
It's men, men, men in suits of all sorts, enjoying masculine meat platters amidst touches of patriarchal Americana. It feels like the kind of place Sinclair Lewis characters would have gone to celebrate a deal, loudly ordering New York cut sirloin, Porterhouse steaks and T-bones. Everything is oversized, including the lobster, which weighs in from 3-13 pounds. Victor Chavez is the chef, who also touts his Maryland crab cakes, grilled chicken breast, and Cajun-spiced filet mignon. If you think you need an appetizer before all this, there's shrimp cocktail, lump crabmeat cocktail, and lobster cocktail. Here you'll find a steakhouse that focuses on an American cuisine an emphasis on steaks.
