A great steakhouse meal rewards a little know-how. Here's how to order with confidence the next time the occasion calls for it.
Choosing the cut
- Ribeye: maximum flavor, generous marbling
- Filet: tenderest, mildest — sauce-friendly
- NY strip: the balanced middle ground
- Porterhouse: strip and filet in one, built for sharing
Temperature truths
Medium-rare remains the kitchen's sweet spot for most cuts; lean filets suffer most from overcooking. If you prefer well-done, a fattier cut survives it better.
Smart spending
Sides are shareable — two or three feed a table. House dry-aged programs are worth the premium; "market price" items deserve a quick ask before ordering.
