"A methodical new steakhouse where prime cuts are butter-poached low and slow before a finishing sear on the grill—a process that can take about 40 minutes—yielding tender, deeply flavored steaks like rib-eye and filet mignon. While you wait there are rich starters (a trio of duck fat fries serves as a decadent bread substitute), and mains can be indulgent—one meal paired a rib-eye with crab and white asparagus. Desserts lean playful and textural: a root beer float arrives layered with sassafras ice cream cubes, fizzy root beer sorbet, Champagne gelée squares, and crunchy pearls, all finished tableside with root beer and accompanied by warm chocolate-walnut cookies." - Janna Karel
