Flemings Prime Steakhouse and Wine Bar: Best Steak over $30
When a chain operation in an office building is the overwhelming favorite steak option in an area with many competitors it means they’re doing something extraordinarily well.
Flemings Steakhouse is rightly known for its steaks.
No locals wander into Flemings because they’re just strolling by, so something is luring them there. In this case it is steaks expertly grilled on a 1,000 degree fire, then allowed to rest until that caramelized exterior is moist and flavorful. The cooks in the kitchen and the servers at the front of the house all know their meat and we benefit from their skills and knowledge. — RF
