| To blend in with the locals at this retro steakhouse, wear a sports coat, bring a family member or two and order the tender and tasty filet mignon. Charcoal House is a neighborhood steakhouse that makes you think you're back in the Eisenhower administration. It's frequented by a lot of families and seniors who come for comfort food from the iceberg era, which is exactly what the salads are, a polite gesture before the Big Event. The house is far stronger on beef than seafood. Steaks like the porterhouse are noteworthy but not as popular as said filet mignon. There’s not much of a wine list, but you’ll find a few satisfactory choices in what is primarily a beer and highball spot. There are good, somewhat more contemporary desserts like chocolate suicide cake, but this is really a place to finish a meal with something from the bar, like the Tumbleweed: Kahlúa and ice cream whizzed in a semi-antique blender. Service is old-fashioned and friendly, as one might hope. |
