"Tucked into MGM National Harbor with a living-room–styled dining room meant to echo the brothers’ childhood home in Frederick, Md., the steakhouse still delivers beautiful wood-grilled cuts of meat while pushing playful, cheffed-up nostalgia across the rest of the menu. Recent menu updates include Voltaggio O’s (hand-rolled anellini in a spicy arrabbiata emulsified with brown butter), a Pop‑Tart reimagined as a flaky, homemade blue‑crab–filled treat, pull‑apart doughnuts dusted with everything‑bagel seasoning served with a smoked trout nighttime schmear, and a new-school beef-and-broccoli riff of slow‑braised oxtail and broccoli rabe ragu over rye gnocchetti finished with wood‑roasted bone marrow — alongside the expected steaks. Longtenured staff, a loyal regional clientele, and a cocktail program that reasserts classics like the gimlet, Manhattan, and Hurricane underscore the restaurant’s aim to evolve aggressively while recommitting to attentive service." - Tierney Plumb
