| - Seems like a deal but read on please.
Well I have eaten here a few times now and I have to say I don't really like it. First off its 47 bucks for a bone in rib eye now and even though it comes with sides they are lousy. In one word to describe the whole meal, bland. First off the steak is dry aged but only 21 days and they have really no aged flavor. Second they do not season the meat at all, I mean not a bit, it was completely bland and flavorless, you can add salt at the table but by then it's too late. My last steak I got was cooked ok, actually a little rare, but it had a strong burnt charcoal taste, a few others at the table said the same and some did not.
The few asparagus spears that comes with are very plain too and were very bland. You can't pick your veggie, it's just whatever they give you. Also the dinner salad is fine I guess but if you want caesar it's 5 bucks more. There are only 2 potatoes to choose from baked or mashed, boring. In the end this place isn't much cheaper and even more expensive than some, treat yourself and go somewhere else and share one or two real good sides with a group. As long as you don't go overboard It will only cost a few bucks more a person and it is worth it. A better steak I found that wasn't terribly pricey was the range at harrahs, way better.
As long as you don't compare this place to the expensive premium steakhouses like CUT or Carnevino this place isn't really a deal at all. 4 steaks at 44 (reasonable price for joe's, fleming's, range, envy, delfrisco...) and you all split 3 sides that you get to pick (more than enough) at 8 each would be 50 a person, only 3 dollars more a person than 47 rib eyes at circus circus. I can't think of a legit steakhouse that I had a worse meal at so I don't see how you could go wrong elsewhere if you are considering this place.
