Tried this place out this past weekend. Having been to places like Peter Luger's, Smith & Wollensky's and Morton's (obviously not in in the Triangle) we wanted to try this highly touted ""Steakhouse"". The service and ambience was top notch, and the appetizers were excellent (Pan seared scallops & crab cake). The wine list was extensive. Our steaks however were a bit disappointing. We had ordereda Filet Mignon, and a bone-in KC Strip (Mid-rare). The Filet lacked flavor, unless it was dunked in a spoonful of sauce, and the strip was chewy and not at all what one would expect from such a place. the desserts (molten choc cake and white choc bread pudding) were also ok - nothing worth waking the neighbors up. If STEAKS is what you want, there are other places much better than Bin 54. Wayyy too overpriced for the quality of meat served.
Pros: Ambience, Service, Winelist
Cons: Steak Quality, Overpriced
