I came here for NYE. Steak44 is located by AJs off of camelback and 44th.
The atmosphere... They have valet available though we did not opt for this. Inside you'll see has low lighting and thoughtful decor. Everything from the light fixtures to the wall paper seemed well designed and put together. We sat in a booth which had a kind of frosted glass on the walls dividing us from the other tables to feel more private. There was fabric on one of the walls, and beautiful wall paper on another.
The service is similar to Mastro's. You have multiple waitstaff assisting and sides are served in a cast iron pan to share family style. Your entrees are sizzling hot when they arrive.
Ordered.....
Appetizers: shrimp (HUGE), oysters (YUM)
Sides: Mushrooms, creamed spinach, lobster mash potatoes. (All fantastic choices)
Main dishes: filet mignon and NY steak.
All of the food and drinks (Pellegrino, Prosecco, Chardonnay) were excellent.
Service....
Everything arrived quickly and as requested. Though the server wasn't sure if he could accommodate our steak request (but he did!). When I asked for more information about the types of oysters he seemed knowledgable.
All in all, the experience was fantastic. The food and atmosphere were amazing.
