    Seattle's Food lovers trust this place for an uncommon offering like velvet steak or a glorious chuck eye! Try the Reuben mille feuille, layered with brisket, beef belly, cabbage & rye crackers! Read more

    The restaurant butchers whole cows, dry-ages its own steaks, and offers two dozen cuts written on chalkboards. When the few nightly orders of New York strips and rib-eyes are gone, they’re gone. Read more

    Great wine great service great dinner. Tip is listen to server's advice to branch out of comfort zone.

    Can get really expensive, but they have cuts of meat for all walks of life (budget). Get there early, they have a set number of cuts, and they cross them off the board throughout the day.

    We had the chef's 5 course tasting menu with beverage pairing. A couple of the dishes were too salty, but the beef liver mousse and tallow cake were amazing!

    An incredible range of aged steaks. Order from the live updated fresh board.

    If you're a burger or steak fan, this is one of the more impressive dining experiences that Lizzie's had in a while!

    Service is good, room is crowded and not especially comfortable. Steaks are more pretentious then flavorful. Lots of wa wa about grain versus grass fed. Decent but not worth $200.00 a person.

    Explore cuts of beef you cannot find in most other steakhouses. Ask your server for guidance.
