Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Best steak you ever ate in a restaurant

The best steakhouse within a hundred plus miles is just at the bottom of my hill a half hour away in a Winters California.
The Buckhorn.
Rustic atmosphere, good ownership, great chefs and menu.
Nobody else compares in the area.

Sakoluvr: One steak that stands out in my mind and taste buds was from the "SW Steakhouse" on the Lake of Dreams in Las Vegas, Nevada!
The steak was the 40 ounce "Porterhouse" (for two!) and was "dry aged" and cooked to perfection!
I have eaten at two of the top ten rated restaurants in the world (one in Honolulu, Hawaii and the other, 35+ years ago, in san fransicko, kalifornicationkopia - and the steaks there were great but did NOT hold a candle to that fantastic Porterhouse from SW Steakhouse in Las Vegas.
LOTS of wonderful, never frozen, fresh and tasty steaks here in Montana but the preparation, ampleness and incredible taste of that Porterhouse tops those as well.
When in Las Vegas give it a try (bring money - I looked it up and its $195.00 ala Carte now!).
Ummm..... I'm getting hungry just thinking about that steak.

A dude once asked an old rancher if he ever ate his own beef?
He replied “sure, when ever I eat at the neighbors”

A place in Sebring called the Gator Shack, They roll a cart out and you pick which one you want and they cook it for you. The first time I was there they rolled out the cart and everyone at our table chose the one they wanted, there were 8 at our table and there were 12 steaks on the cart every one had chose except me. what's up with that one on they end that big Honkin one I said, he replied oh I didn't have enough time to cut in two, I said I will take it he said sir that piece has to be atleast 48 OZ I said I know I want it. They owner came to our table and said sir that cut is 50.5 OZ are you sure you want it, I then said will it be ready at the same time as they others? He said yes and offered to cook it himself, Well it was awesome with all they other stuff Baked Potato ect two 32OZ stines of IPA and Keylime pie to finish it off, it was the best meal I have ever had. All the wait staff was watching me and actually cheered when I finished, they owner came out and shook my hand and said thankyou I said why are you thanking me for he said I don't know but thankyou.LOL

How’s your LDL?

Eating out, I'll order prime rib, hard to fix at home.

No matter what it was after that it was worth it, my cholesterol is fine the good the bad and they ugly which really pisses of my wife. I said aren't you happy for me that I have good numbers "yes but it still pisses me off that you can eat what you want"LOL

34 ounce ribeye at Buck Owen's Crystal Palace in Bakersfield, Ca.

Eland steak, at a restaurant in Kimberly, South Africa.

I can't belive that people still belive animal saturated fat has anything to do with your serum lipid numbers. This has been dispatched years ago for 85-90% of the population.

You may be in the small percentage where it means something, but I'd put large dollar amounts against it.

Sal, that looks like a great place to chew on a steak.

Best steak was a small place in one of the Dallas airport terminals called Mr. B's.......................genuine mesquite open grill with fabulous meat & Louis VIII for an after dinner brandy.

I was travelling to Monterrey MX on a regular basis & would overnight at the airport & fly into Monterrey next morning. Place is no longer there anymore.

Smith & Wolensky in Chicago is also a contender but the mesquite grill adds enough to get the nod.

For prime rib, there is a place in St. Louis called Kris's & the meat is fabulous & big...............lived there for 3 years & went there often. They are still there.

But I also have to mention Lawry's in Chicago (now closed) which had really great prime rib as well with more atmosphere than Kris's.

I have to hope Cattleman’s is at least second?

Definitely a local iconic steak house. If you have to visit Northern California. You might as well suffer through a better than average cut of beef, with the added benefit of a great atmosphere!

Hard to believe, but possibly the best steak I've ever had was on a cruise we went on with a group of my high school reunion planners . Went to Alaska on the cruise and a couple of the dinners were at the high end restaurants on the ship that aren't covered under the regular cruise fair. Our cruise planner gave us complimentary tickets and we went as a group. I got lobster and a T-bone steak along with lobster bisque because most restaurants serve a pretty small meal with a steak. The steak was huge - it almost covered the entire plate and it was cooked perfectly medium rare. It was so tender you could cut it with the fork and the lobster was perfect also. The service was incredible along with it.

Second best steak I've ever had was a Filet Mignon stuffed with clams, crab, and scallops at a place called Salty's in Portland. Possibly the best seafood and steak restaurant in Oregon IMO, but I'll admit I'm too cheap to eat there often... it's not unusual to run into celebrities there as many of them have homes in the Portland area. Ran into Sam Elliot there having dinner with his wife and friends have run into Tom Selleck there. Funny thing is, for the most part folks see these celebrities in this area and often give them their space and don't bother them... but the steak was darned good.

Never buy seafood in a restaurant.






Waaaay too easy to get it yourself.
