| - I find it difficult to rank establishments that have an ok overall menu, but truly excel in a few items. Those items, in Modern Steak's case, include the Kona Burger and Hotdog and the Mac n' Cheese. However, I could take or leave the rest of the menu. Also, for a place that is exposed to mall passerbys (yes, I know it's at the schwanky Scottsdale Fashion Square mall), I find the attitude too pretentious. The service staff are nice, but they need to relax a bit. And in general I find the decor overdone. Stick to a few interesting elements, please. Most people care about the food, though, so here is the bottom line: if you are in the mood for some comfort food (the pre-meal bread is also excellent) head to Modern Steak for the classics. For lunch only, though. Dinner is ridiculously expensive for what you get.
