  • BLT Steak is one of three new "modern steakhouses" that have taken over the dining rooms of Scottsdale resorts. While I lament the loss of local gourmet restaurants in exchange for somewhat corporate "celebrity chef" ones, I was very pleased by the other two, J&G at the Phoenician and Bourbon Steak at the Fairmont (although my experience there was limited to dessert). We decided to give BLT Steak a try, while they're running their $50 blackboard menu 3-course special (it's actually 3.5 courses--app, entree, side, and dessert). Things started nicely with a chicken liver amuse, on toasted baguette. Then they bring out their famous popovers--which are spectacular-- and you're almost ready to call it a night! We shared the crabcake app from the regular menu, the white asparagus app, dover sole entree, and broccolini side from the blackboard menu, and the potatoes au gratin side from the regular menu. Nothing was tremendously impressive. Don't get me wrong--everything was very good--but nothing made us say, "WOW!" And at prices like these, I need a few "WOW!" moments. They were out of the peach melba cake for dessert so they brought us the other two off the blackboard menu, which was very nice. Unfortunately, neither one impressed. In fact, I found the apricot phyllo tart with mint creme to be a terrible mix of flavors. Service was wonderful, and the dining room is contemporary and casually stylish...definitely your Gen X / Gen Y steakhouse. But the prices are just too high for food that's merely "very good." It might not be fair to judge a steakhouse without trying the steaks, but Seftel seemed to suggest that they aren't the star here, compared to other Valley steakhouses. If that's true, it's even more reason to head to J&G, Bourbon Steak, or Mastro's instead of BLT Steak. We left saying, "Better than BLT Burger, in Las Vegas." But see my review of BLT Burger and you'll see that's not saying too much.
