"Gabrielle Quiñónez Denton and Greg Denton’s James Beard Award-winning Argentinian American steakhouse is now a staple of Northeast Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard. In this cozy, brick-walled dining room, appetizers like smoked beef tongue carpaccio with crispy sweetbreads lead into 42-ounce bone-in rib-eyes and grass-fed filet mignon off the grill, accompanied by spinach and ricotta dumplings or maple-glazed heirloom carrots. Start with a bourbon-and-beet-syrup Ox Blood cocktail; finish with chocolate olive oil cake and Amarena cherries. Note: Ox is closed following a fire at the restaurant; it will reopen on April 3 at the earliest." - Krista Garcia, Thom Hilton
