  • Based on the high recommendations from my foodie friends, I was expecting the best steak of my life at BLT. As it turns out, I thought my steak was OK, the rest of the meal was pretty good, and the service was adequate. Maybe my expectations were too high. I also have to admit that I may not have the proper palate for this place: I like my steaks lean and tender, not necessarily "full of flavor". BLT emphasizes wagyu "Kobe" style beef, which is intended to have a *very* high fat content for added flavor, and BLT's steaks are certainly flavorful. My wagyu skirt steak was OK, but in retrospect I probably would have asked them to cook it longer (maybe medium or medium plus) instead of medium rare if I had realized the fat content in the steak was so high. I would also say that the steak was over-seasoned for my taste. A steak with this much natural "flavor" doesn't need more salt. The sides were good, some very good. The complementary pate and popovers were outstanding. Spinach salad was fine, nothing special. Same with the potatoes and asparagus. Peanut butter mousse with banana ice cream was excellent. Service was fine, nothing more or less. They weren't quick, but it's not the sort of place where you need to be rushed. I greatly enjoyed the views of Camelback Mountain from the patio, so I wasn't in a hurry. It did seem like we had several different people waiting on us, maybe there was some confusion by the staff. So overall, BLT was fine. Certainly not bad. But I was expecting something that was a notch above the other steak houses in Scottsdale, and I can't say that BLT met that expectation. Admittedly, I shouldn't have ordered the Wagyu beef; it's not my thing, and that's not their fault. If I go back (and I probably will because my foodie friends love it), I'll get one of the other steaks.
