You forgot St. Elmo’s Steakhouse in downtown Indianapolis. It’s been there for 120 years. Definitely worth the trip for a delicious steak and their signature shrimp cocktail!!
The Cattlemen Steak house has been a staple of real Texas beef for years. Not fancy or trendy but rock solid food. We always go there when visitors come into town.
I treated my wife and her parents to dinner at Ruth's Chris and the meal was great. I wouldn't say it's top of the line but it is a dependable spot to entertain. Their Lyonnaise potatoes are to die for! I hope one day to live where there is a Ruth's Chris. Currently I live on the Kitsap Peninsula (WA state) and there is nowhere one can go for a good steak.
never forget the first day i did some work for mr laxer gave me tour of kitchen so clean you could eat off the floor live fish actually swimming in tanks the most impressive kitchen ive ever seen and i have worked in a lot of commercial kitchens the worst i ever saw was the spanish park in tampa no longer in bussiness or the columbia is a filthy tourist trap
I went to Jeff Ruby's a couple years ago. Spent $350 on me and my date. It's not cheap but it was great. They use a pretty complicated method of making their steaks and steak seasonings. Their Mac & cheese also uses a ton of ingredients. It's next level lol.
You could have had 50 friends over for meatloaf and mashed potatoes. Hundred dollar steak served with Mac and cheese? Did they serve martinis in sippy cups?
@@diegomontoya796 we actually ate a lot more than that plus had a couple drinks. That also includes tip. My steak had wagyu beef on top of it. She had Lobster and steak with the Lobster Mac N cheese(when Jeff Ruby's used to sell that). We also had an appetizer. If you watch videos on Jeff Ruby's, you'll see that they put a lot of work into their food. Our last dinner was $380 at another restaurant. That one was on par to a one Michelin star restaurant. I'm a Foodie and like trying good food as a hobby.. That's just how I am. 💁♂️
@@billh230 not even.. 50 people at Dennys is at least $500 if it's $10 per plate, and I think that's one of their cheaper plates we're talking.. They must be thinking more along the lines of taco bell or a fiest made from the cheapest ingredients at their local discount grocery store.
Philadelphia also has a Del Frisco’s Double Eagle Steakhouse. I can just go there instead of hopping on Amtrak to NYC. As low as $2 bus fare to Philadelphia 1 way for me.
I’ve eaten many steaks at many restaurants all over the country. The only one on this list I’ve been to is Del Frisco’s and it was fantastic. However, the best steak I’ve ever had in my life (and I’ve eaten there many times) is Murray’s in Minneapolis.
There is Berns and then there is every other steakhouse in the world. Don’t go there, it wrecks every steakhouse dining experience you will ever have. Every wine enthusiast should also put this place on their bucket list.
I remember asking a NYC local about where to get a steak in Manhattan for a decent price. it was expensive enough that two people had to split the steak; honestly, I expected better. It's name (vague memory) began with a D and was in some triangle shaped building IIRC.
You can’t throw a rock in NYC without hitting a “good” steakhouse but it’s hard to find a great one. My go to is midtown Wolfgangs. Very consistent, good location and a friendlier Luger clone. In order to get to great you have to go dry aged which is expensive no matter where you go. If you aren’t going dry aged, skip the steak option in NYC - terrible value.
I’m shocked Cattleman’s made the list and you cannot mention Cattleman’s without mentioning Mad Mary’s in Pierre as well. Both are excellent. Morries in Sioux Falls should have been considered as well. But Cattleman’s has amazing history and the views are awesome as well.
I wouldn't consider myself a provincialist who believes that Tampa is the center of the Universe; however, I was slightly dismayed by the introductory statement for Bern's steakhouse: "in the truly unexpected location of Tampa, Florida". Why is it "truly unexpected?" We have some better than "decent" universities, culture, and sophistication. It's not all strip (malls and clubs). Some of us know what a Patek Philippe is even if all we own is a Rolex or Omega. Tampa may not have the glitz and glamor of Miami Beach, NYC, or LA, but it can be a pleasurable place to live. My main complaint as a multi-generational native is the decline in our once thriving family-owned restaurant culture. We have been swarmed by, and capitulated to, a plethora of mediocre chain restaurants; however, I believe there is still hope for us. Truly unexpected, bah!
At this point, with beef prices and fuel prices the way they are, some of these places might not be around long, because the average American can't afford it.
@@csr326 Yeah, they make steaks They are not doing anything cutting-edge, and they certainly are not matching the processes used at high-end steak houses.. Prime has never been in their premises. They cook on a flat top at about 500, as opposed to a broiler/salamander like places such as Ruth Chris use (at 1800 degrees).
I'm sure these are all wonderful, but I want to give a shout-out to Cattlemen's Steakhouse in the Stockyard District, Okc, Oklahoma. Priced right and has been ranked in the top ten of all steakhouses for years. Just not this one.
Hi, nice reviews but you are not including any Argentine restaurants. They specialized in steak and there are severals restaurants in USA. Their country export the best quality meats of the world. Thanks.
STK is WAY overpriced for what it is. The steaks are decent but double the normal price, as are the drinks. If you want wagyu beef, it’s $100 per OUNCE. It was no better than any other high-end steakhouse but twice the price. The service was about on a par with other steakhouses. Would I call this one of the best in the country? No.
The meat served at the "regular persons" moderately priced Cattlemen Club is, for the most part the same meat served in the other overly priced overly pretentious steakhouses on this list.
These are High dollar steak Houses only the Rich > Im more the Salt Grass , Texas Roadhouse but Id rather you find the Hidden gems like small Cities Old school steak houses no Modern ones but affordable .
Bern's Steakhouse is grossly over rated. Not the best steak I've ever had, but far from the worst. I like their dress code, their servers were awesome, their menu selections are terrific, however my porterhouse was never "great". Been 3x, and disappointed with each visit - 3 strikes, I won't go back. Fully agree with comments about Cattleman's Club - a top rated meal. Same to be said for Del Frisco's in NY - just wow.
Ugh, sorry, but the food you show from these places looks disgusting. I suppose if I was after a pretentious meal rather than good food, I might think otherwise, but I'm pretty secure in with my station in life and I know what I like.
Which steakhouse is your favorite?
Perry's Steakhouse and Grille. Houston (HQ), Dallas/FtWorth, Austin, San Antonio, Denver, Chicago, Miami, Birmingham, Raleigh and Nashville.
Lugars
One word “ Berns”
@@stephenmitchum5864 do you mean “BERNS” in Tampa? 😂
@@geraldbrienza4474 yes voice text hates me.
Now that it is getting warmer outside, time to get the barbecue grills fired up!
I live in Ohio, and I just brought mine out today. Supposed to be in the 70's the next few days.
For about $16 you can cook the best steak ribeye 🥩 you’ll ever had right in your back yard. While your pockets stay in tact.
Good food never fail in bringing people together.🤤
You forgot St. Elmo’s Steakhouse in downtown Indianapolis. It’s been there for 120 years. Definitely worth the trip for a delicious steak and their signature shrimp cocktail!!
I heard of it back in the '80s when I was stationed in Norfolk Virginia... NEVER got a chance to visit 😢

Maybe so, but in WA you can buy a nice cattle, raise it, and have nice cuts for weeks!
Ruth's Chris is fine, but there are definitely better. Seattle has some very good steaks, i hear.
I've never been to any of these, but if there's a steak house on the planet better than Keens Steakhouse in NYC, I have to go there.
You’re not a real steak lover if y go to those places
Nothing beats a local and authentic steakhouse !
Cheers from San Diego California
What do you recommend?
Good food never fail in bringing people together.🤤
Gas lamp strip club!
johnhausser: hard to adequately express just how nonsensical that statement is, but have at it.
These are right up my alley.
Wow Mashed finally got something right. Bern's is the best steakhouse in the world.
never forget the first day i did some work for mr laxer gave me tour of kitchen so clean you could eat off the floor live fish actually swimming in tanks the most impressive kitchen ive ever seen and i have worked in a lot of commercial kitchens the worst i ever saw was the spanish park in tampa no longer in bussiness or the columbia is a filthy tourist trap
agreed!
truly a bucket list experience
Knife is awesome. It’s one of my favorite restaurants.
I loved lonestar back when they were around
It’s a Vibe 🏖 😎
Thanks, Mashed!!! I have never become so hungry in such a short time!

I've always said if the food is good, you don't mind spending the money. Sounds to me like you got $350.00 worth. 👍
You could have had 50 friends over for meatloaf and mashed potatoes.
Hundred dollar steak served with Mac and cheese? Did they serve martinis in sippy cups?

I've ate at Sperry's a few times. Always fun. My favorite is Mastro's. Some of the best meals I've ever had.
Noti gang

Idk about other states but we have Texas road house here in Mansfield Ohio & its amazing!!! 1st time I ate there I said Logan's who!!
love the Double Eagle! We eat at the Fort Worth and Dallas locations, all my New York friends say steak is better down here. So IDK
Alls good at all of em my opinion.

Bones in Atlanta.
Where’s Peter Luger in Brooklyn, NY?!
I've heard only rave reviews of it, but sadly, I have yet to visit.
Peter Luger has been coasting on the family name for 25 years now
Okay! It's past midnight and I have rumblys in my Tumbly!
These are some of America's best steaks, so big and they seem to have a lot of tradition and history.
Bar Ranch steak Co. In Plano TX hands down the best
Del frisco was hit so hard by COVID they pretty much lifted their dress code lol
The best steak spot near where I live is a chain but salt grass is pretty damn good!
Berns was solid and I’m from Vegas.
No Houston restaurants? shame
California grill on top of the Contemporary hotel had the best steak in Disney.
Del Frisco's is great! Wish they didn't close in Chicago.
Chicago used to go Christmas shopping with entire family every year and we always went to THE Rose Bud !!!! Sure miss those times!!!
There is Berns and then there is every other steakhouse in the world. Don’t go there, it wrecks every steakhouse dining experience you will ever have. Every wine enthusiast should also put this place on their bucket list.
agreed place has almost a other-worldly atmosphere between the food, vibe, and DESERT ROOM

Delmonico's. He should have taken you to Keens or Smith & Wolensky's.
@Gaetano Maximus we could barely navigate that part of Manhattan. I thought it was Delmonicos, thank you
@@Stache987 If you've ever seen a John Wick movie, the exterior of Delmonico's is what's used for The Continental.

Just tried their Seattle location. Wasn’t impressed.
LMAO Ruth's Chris is a joke

Nothing west of the Rockies.
Are these chain restaurants? If not, that would have been more helpful.
420$ tomahawk? BRUH
Why are half these places from nashville?...
I live in NY. Del Friscos is overpriced and underwhelming.
I’d go keens over them any day.
"Hands down"??? Nah. These are good, but you can't leave out Peter Lugers in NYC, or St Elmo's in Indy.

Yeah, I thought that was over the top too.
The meat served at the "regular persons" moderately priced Cattlemen Club is, for the most part the same meat served in the other overly priced overly pretentious steakhouses on this list.
None in the Pacific Northwest? OK, we will stick to Seafood. and the best steak in the northwest comes from our BBQ grills at home, of course.
These are High dollar steak Houses only the Rich > Im more the Salt Grass , Texas Roadhouse but Id rather you find the Hidden gems like small Cities Old school steak houses no Modern ones but affordable .
I makes my own steaks. As good or better for a lot less $$
Sure you do. I have heard that sentiment dozens of times over the years and the number of times it was true is exactly zero.
Keens isnt on here? STK is? not legit
This was the absolute worst list I have ever seen. RPM? Del Friscos??!!?! Did they sponsor this?

Yes, with baked potato.
