FYI the best steakhouses on US-from a guy who travels constantly-is Cincinnati. No joke. Jack Rubys and Precinct. Get yourself there. So totally impressed.

You did such an amazing job with this video. So informative and professional. I'll have to check out Capital Grille sometime for sure.

Great video. I have never been fond of Ruth’s Chris. I like Longhorn on a regular basis. I have liked Morton’s best many years ago while also going to Palm, Smith and Wollenski, Del Franco, and Sparks. But when I tried Capital Grille, I was bowled over. DEFINITELY THE BEST PREMIUM STEAKHOUSE.

Since the pandemic I’ve notice the quality of the restaurant experience significantly decline at the same time prices have increased. I’ve tried Capital Grill in Houston and can confirm it is an impressive experience. Still my favorite steak experience was in Patagonia. The beef there is amazing and the prices can’t be beat! Filet was a good choice for judging apples to apples. You get significant differences I. Prime beef on NY strip and Ribeyes.

Hi Brad great video. Thank you.

Fleming’s and Ruth’s are two of our favorite steak joints.

Ruth Chris wins out on chain restaurants. Also, try Del Frisco in North Dallas, amazing steak and sides. But, the best tasting steak I've ever had was the Big Texan steakhouse in Amarillo TX. The porterhouse steak is the cut most often evaluated for taste. I've been to New York had a Luger porterhouse, it was very damn good but not as good as the Big Texan. IMO.

Im a truck driver and I've been to every state and tried steaks at a plethora of locations. The quality of meat is different based on location and what cattle ranch it comes from. My top three states are New York, Wyoming and Nebraska. Honorable mention, " Utah". My favorite commercial steak with the best consistency across the board was Long Horn. A lot of people think the best steaks should come out of Texas but in my opinion their cattle aren't as healthy as the others and the meat actually has a low beefy flavor. . My opinion.

When you're ever in Florida, 3 steak houses I highly suggest. On the lowest end, money wise, but still absolutely fantastic, is Mannys Chop House in Haines City, FL. You can't go wrong. 2nd Charley's in Tampa on Cypress blvd. This is a great restaurant. Suggest business casual dress. They are spendy, but in my opinion, steps above Ruth's Chris. Definitely make a reservation, and I highly recommend it. Now, the third place is fine dining and coat and tie required. But OMG, they never disappoint. It's Berns Steakhouse in Tampa on Howard Ave. You will not leave disappointed, but you will pay for the experience, and that is what this restaurant is: an experience. They have a wine cellar that has some bottles you would need to mortgage your house for. It is world renowned. They also have a dessert room upstairs that is just as amazing. Enjoy and Bon Appetite

Ribeye only steak to eat

We like cattleman steakhouse in Oklahoma City we drive over two hours just to go eat there. Great food great service.

Capital Grille gets all the marks. Fantastic. Del Frisco’s Double Eagle should be in this video.

For a value midrange steakhouse I like Longhorn, for high end steak I love Capital Grille, I’ve never been to Ruth’s , Morton’s, Fleming’s but I plan on going. Now Longhorn, Ruth’s, and Capital Grille are owned by Darden.

He's a huge Ruth's Chris mark and what's not to love? They make a fantastic steak.

Thanks fir sharing your dining experiences. Throughout your video, you focused on the filet mignon being cooked and lathered in butter and balsamic vinegar. However, throughout all those steaks, I did not hear you mention/critique the beefy taste flavor. To me, the beefy flavor is a major variable worth critiquing.

Nicely done!

I just ate at Texas Roadhouse. I ordered a 11 Oz. sirloin. Asked for medium rare. The steak came out and it was way overcooked. No juice what so ever and tough as nails. Brought it home and fed it to my dog. I won't be back.

It hardly seems fair to compare a plain filet at one restaurant and a filet with a rich sauce and crabmeat at another.

Meat qualities factors 1. meat cut ( ribeye, fliet end cut ) 2. beef marbling score / gradeprime a5 etc 3. doneness ( rare medium ) 4. rendered jelly fat ( slow cooked) 5. crust 6. seasoning 7. herbs / compound butter 8. aging / aging method wet/dry 9. additional tenderizing ( mechanical or chemical ) 10. bone in 11. enhancements ( sauces ) 12. cows origin 13. cows feed 14. cows bread wagyu black angus Not all touchable here but could be something you could link or refer to Then you can get into cooking methods like reverse seared pan seared broiled

Morton's is my standard for how I want my cooked steaks to taste!!

My best ribeye ever was at Landry's in Orlando.

Prime and Provisions in Downtown Chicago. Had a steak in there a few years back and was awesome!!

I’ve been to ALL of these places. Rankings are fairly similar to my thoughts, except I would put Capital Grille fourth and add in Del Frisco’s in my Top Spot!

ENJOYED YOUR FANTASTIC VIDEO,NICE WAY OF FAIR ASSESMENTS . FROM ALAMO,TX ..I HAVE SUBSCRIBED.

The only thing I need to dress a steak is salt, pepper and butter!

I fully agree with being a Ruth’s fan. 1 and 2 are a coin flip to me. My late father-in-law loved the Capitol Grille’s rack of lamb. Nice work!

1200 Chophouse on St Pete Beach has the best Filet by far....they also have a 72oz tomahawk steak but it's basically something to order for the experience

Great video

THE SIZZLER!!!!

The last time that I went to Outback, they brought me a sirloin for the filet. I loved Outback up til then. Had they given me a filet like they showed here, I would have been ecstatic. Also, I realized that he's going to chains not real top end restaurants across the country.

in my area, Outback and Capital Grill, have the same steak supplier .

Them finer joints he stopped telling the price,but printed them😂 for the money I just had a bone in rib-eye in Maine at roadhouse fantastic .😊

If you dont want to pay $55-$60 for a USDA prime Fillet or Ribeye, try Longhorn. I have been to EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THESE, best bang for your buck is Longhorn......HANDS DOWN. I dont give a crap about pretentious surroundings. Capital Grille is nice, but they have the exact same steaks as Longhorn, and LH is a lot less money. Same Darden ownership. And prepared just as well. Ruth's Chris steaks are crap. I would swear they are choice and not prime. I have had at least ten steaks at RC and never been impressed. Actually I ended up pissed when I saw the bill. Morton's was $165 for me and my wife and the steak was "meh". And to just give a slap to all of the others....none of them had mac and cheese or asparagus like Longhorn. both the best I have ever eaten. And just a side note, the best Ribeye That I have ever had in my life was from Charlie's in Orlando.

Just ate at Ruth's Chris tonight (NY strip steak) , and am 250 bucks poorer. The New York strip steak at Longhorn is a bit better, and a fraction of the price (27 bucks including a fantastic salad and a phenomenal loaded baked potato).

I feel for the value you can’t beat Texas Roadhouse it’s cheap and the steaks are very decent

Based on your premise (popular steakhouses) a very nice review. Still, that hot sizzly plate that Ruth's Chris always brings is always worth extra points in my book. Outside of your criteria but well within your travels, did you sneak over to Peter Lugar while in NY? It's still on my short list, as is Bern's in Tampa. I've been to Gibson's and Gene & Gorgetti's in Chi-Town several times. All good, albeit inconsistent, but there is something special about that hot sizzly plate. Impressive that such a large chain like Ruth's Chris can hang with the Independents.

Ill take texas roadhouse. Prefer their sides and bread over Outback and Longhorn, and everytime ive ordered anything from TR, it was seasoned tastefully and the price was good. I like to enjoy my steak in a non dressy, laid back atmosphere. You're paying as much for the name as you are the food at a place like Ruth's Chris. I certainly didn't taste 3 times the quality to match the 3 times more expensive price the last time we ate there compared to my little $23-$25 filet at texas roadhouse...lol.

First off, I love my lunch days. My "weekend" is Tuesday and Wednesday, so a lunch out is always quite and enjoyable. Living in NYC, S&W is probably my favorite from your list, and The Palm right behind. I feel there's better here, but they're not chains like you did here. (Side note.. Peter Luger is terrible) I've been to every one but Fleming's. From the fast food spots, to the top end, they all have their place. I lived in England for a while, Google "Miller & Carter" Morton's ish, and good. Honestly, the best steakhouse is my own kitchen!

Long Horn is my go to Steak House. They coked my Bonein Ribeye the way I liked it without butter and charred to medium rare to rare. Texas Road House is as bad as Outback with cheap steak and loud families. I had been to Flemming in Newport Beach but had no memory. I also have been in Ruth Chris but the butter turned me off and never finished it. I had since ordered my steak without butter.

Second and Main Aurora Indiana is the very Best!!!

This should have been two videos… you cannot compare USDA Prime steakhouse and Choice grade. In fairness there is not really a true PRIME filet since it must be connected to the PRIME strip to be considered prime - Porterhouse. There is not enough fat ribbons in a filet to be graded prime. Also note, Fleming’s was started by Paul Fleming - who was the largest Ruths Chris franchisee… he sold them back to Ruths and then started Fleming’s based exactly on Ruths Chris… Anyway, I could go on. Good video but not a fair comparison.

The T&T in Aurora Wisconsin.

If you don't like Texas Roadhouse, then you just don't like America, and if you don't like America, then GED OUT!! 😄🤠

I thought this was serious until I saw outback and roadhouse on your list. Prime. Evaluate cereal next time.

Ol Steakhouse Co. in Corpus Christi, Tx is the Best Steakhouse!!!

Do you know butterfly

Are you kidding you're comparing the Capital Grill to the Texas Roadhouse isn't that like comparing a Ford Festiva to Shelby Cobra

Outback steaks are ruined with that horrible seasoning.

I’ll save you time flemings and Ruth Chris hands down..

I guess some eat a meal. And others eat a mill?

I noticed Mastro's steakhouse was missing...

Capital grille does NOT serve prime steak.. how can that be the best steak?

Porterhouse

Guess u never went to hunter stake house

We went to Ruth's Chris in Orlando. Nine of us and the bill was $1,000. My filet mignon had the "chain" still attached. I couldn't chew it, but was encouraged by my team not to send it back. I will not return. I was grateful the meal was on the corporate credit card.

Zero one is these are in the top 100 in America. Bazaar Meats by Jose Andres in Vegas is the best. The author actually mentioned Outback?

Del fresco?

Those higher end places aren't worth the money.

Great review video but I work in a steakhouse, have for a long time, and I’m not sure you know your cook temps. Your longhorn was medium and your smith was perfect medium rare. I’m kind of astounded you went to 9 steakstraunts and nobody explained to you cook temps.

I don't understand how you can call yourself a steak guy and order a filet. Not nearly as much flavor as some other cuts and, can I say, too soft? That's why they call it the woman's cut.

What you like is called medium, not medium rare.

Outback is trash

If your ranking steaks Filet mignon is not the steak to choose

Filet? Sorry, bad call.

Why would you order filet mignon at a top steakhouse???? Ribeye should be the only steak people order at these places.

Peter luger

Hi, nice reviews but you are not including any Argentine restaurants. They specialized in steak and there are severals restaurants in USA. Their country export the best quality meats of the world. Thanks.

Peter Lugers? Hello

You lost me at filet.

... What the babbling.....

How can you not put ketchup on any of those steaks. 🤷‍♂️

You didn't go anywhere good except Smith and W! Geez. Texas Roadhouse? Come on man!

Definitely not the Outback or Texas Roadhouse. Longhorn has great white cheddar stuffed mushrooms, Brussel sprots and sweet potatoes. Don't like bright pink in my steak 🥩. Not a Vampire

If you don't order the same steak the same way, how can you compare the different steak houses? This guy has no idea how to rate these steaks, I'm never going to watch this guy again......

Brad's chin and ear lobes predict an early demise from eating the wrong foods.

Your comparison is very flawed. If you compare Ruth’s Chris and Martin’s to Texas roadhouse that’s just stupid.
