Nice try, Trip Advisor. I'm still not gonna waste a dime on a steakhouse when I can easily cook the same meat in my very own kitchen.

---

Another broken egg is fantastic
Yard house is pretty good too and you can't beat their draft beer selection
---

Lol nah they are a growing chain by Darden.
Same company that owns olive garden and that used to own red lobster
---

Forgot about mellow mushroom. Their pizza is pretty bomb
---

They have quite a few of those here in Vegas. If anyone feels like going to a Brazilian rodizio place like Fogo or Texas de Brazil, get that shit out of your system soon because you won't want to do that to yourself a second time lol
---

Quality restaurants off that list (in no order):

Seasons 52
BRIO
Ruth Chris'
Mellow Mushroom
Melting Pot
Maggiano's
Jason's Deli

You cant age it at home

Munch

seasons 52 is a good place
---

Mellow Mushroom rules
---

I looooove Another Broken Egg. Great portions and the food and service is excellent.
---

morton's is the only steakhouse i have any reason to visit
---

Texas Roadhouse isn't bad I guess, but it's always crowded and deafeningly loud. Not really the kind of atmosphere I want, and the only reason I've been there is because extended family insisted on going for [insert event].
---

No real surprises in the list but idk why I'd spend so much money on those bland, pseudo-upscale places when I could get better food at a local place

Texas Roadhouse has the best bread rolls
---

Their bread rolls are good but goddamn the noise sets my anxiety off lol
---

Portillos number one.

cheesecake factory has the best bread bread

Love Mellow Mushroom. My family goes there at least once whenever we go to the beach (every 2 years baby ^_^)
---

I've only even ever heard of like three of these
---

In N Out is fine.

Blaze is okay.

Mellow Mushroom wasn't good the time I got it, but it was a group function so maybe getting regular food there is different.

Fogo de Chao in the Harbor during restaurant week was the only way it was cheap enough for me to consider. Good food, but not something I justify doing often.
---

I've heard of 3 of the large ones, and absolutely none of the others

Can't disagree.

Same, I would rather eat somewhere relaxed and not so crowded it reminds me of trying to squeeze by people in a concert venue when I walk into the door tbh.
---

Pretty solid list, I've had all 10 of the large ones and I can agree they should all be towards the top of the list.
---

in n out on the list

5 guys not

awwwwwwwwwwwwwwyea

I spent Summer 2016 there.

And I'm going back to live in a month. Well, not to Baltimore proper.
---

Portillos is god tier. Should have Lou Malnatis on the list too. Texas Roadhouse isnt bad at all either.

All the other restaurants listed are overrated and/or $20+ a plate for good food at an unfair price.

Literally who the fuck would actually go to Ruths Chris when if you want to get steak at a restaurant you have a handful of other good options at a much fairer price, like Texas Roadhouse.
---

Texas Roadhouse is very good.
---

Was hoping to see Culver's

Same here. Was like... wtf are these places?
---

Maggiano's makes every other "Italian" restaurant look like a goddamn corner pizzeria so confirming this.

Capital Grille is solid but I've had better porterhouse steaks elsewhere.

Nah, I'm looking around the Laurel, Annapolis-Junction, etc. area.
