My GF made a simple request for dinner, "I want a great prime rib dinner where we won't be served a low quality skirt steak painted up like a Prime Rib" After doing some research I picked Anthony's thinking She can get her Prime Rib and I can get a good steak.
Well I was wrong, I didn't get a "good" steak I got an unbelievably awesome steak. Until last night I honestly believed my father and I made the worlds best two steaks Anthony's is now on my list as number one. it was lightly seasoned, perfectly marinated and ooh so incredibly melt in your mouth tender/juicy. I almost wish I had ordered a 2nd one to take home with us.
The GF loved her Prime Rib and devoured almost every last bit of it, not something she normally does. We shared a salad and a side order of the mashed potatoes. The summer herb vinaigrette for the salad was amazing! We were dipping almost everything we had on the table in it and may have just guzzled it down had they left a bottle of it on the table.
The potatoes were a little bland but were a creamy smooth delight if you put them on your plate and used them to soak up some of the steak juice. Another disappointing part of the evening was with our Raw Oyster appetizer. We ordered the half dozen and were served 6 Oysters that if combined may have actually made up two or three adult sized Oysters for the price we paid for them we should have been given oysters the size of my fist but they were the only disappointment of the night.
Sorry but thats not true, I was disappointed with the beer selection, no draft beers and nothing you couldn't find down at the local store. Also, You go to a steak house to eat a great steak and have a great dining experience with friends and family but they were teasing me with the MLB playoffs being on a TV in the next section and the TVs were too far away for me to catch the score over the GFs shoulder.
Our server was great, perfect timing, knew the menu and could answer questions about what was in the dishes and would pair well with the other items on the menu. I wish I had thought to ask him to give me the playoff score updates as I was sitting there. Well maybe next time and trust me there will be a next time!
