 Move over Morton’s and Ruth’s Chris. This steakhouse chain has captured a devoted following for the upscale steakhouse experience. The overall concept generates a comfortable, clubby environment: mahogany, leather, mounted stuffed game---including an eagle of awesome wing spread; original art centered on portraits of local notables; a lively lounge; well-appointed private rooms; and an ambitious wine program. But each site is also customized by the talents and resources of the executive chef and his team. In Pittsburgh, both the kitchen and the staff are at the top of their game, making for topnotch food and a pleasurable ambience. First-rate products, well executed, distinguish the menu: Wagyu beef carpaccio; premium beef, dry-aged on-site; shellfish enticingly assembled as a cold appetizer platter; and such definitive sides as truffle fries and lobster “mac and cheese.” Desserts range from homemade ice creams and sorbets to devilish flourless chocolate espresso cake.
