Come on people! While this place may not be the BEST steak in town, for the price, it's phenomenal! For my friend's birthday dinner we had planned on going to Rosemary's (last minute, on a Wednesday, not a good idea). Since Rosemary's was booked we ended up at the Cortez Room. I came here a few years ago and really enjoyed it, so I was pumped.
The place appears to have undergone some updates in the decor. The overall effect is still that of an 80 year old's summer house, but hey, you are at the Gold Coast!
There are two negatives: It's in the Gold Coast and the lack of ambiance. However, there are many positives: 6 people + drinks + wine + prime rib + filets = $197 (what a deal).
I had filet mignon. The meat was a little tough but had a very nice flavor. The salad was fresh and the garlic mashed potatoes were very good. I tried my BF's GIANT 20 oz prime rib ($20) and thought it was really good. Very juicy and cooked perfectly. I highly recommend this place if you are looking for a great dinner at a great price with absolutely no atmosphere. :)
