Dining room at Nick & Stef's Steakhouse, Los Angeles, CALong before he moved his flagship Patina to the Walt Disney Concert Hall, superchef-restaurateur Joachim Splichal demonstrated a strong commitment to Downtown L.A., represented by this sleek steakhouse named after his twin boys, as well as other venues. While preserving all of the time-honored elements of the traditional steakhouse, Splichal's unique touches are everywhere, from the glass-walled aging chambers to his penchant for potatoes. For starters, we particularly like the spicy grilled barbecued shrimp cocktail with coleslaw, Kona kampachi sashimi, and an impressive Caesar salad prepared tableside. The dry-aged steaks, like the 12-ounce New York strip and ten-ounce filet, are all beautifully cooked and seasoned; while they require no embellishment, consider one of the sauces---everything from a classic béarnaise to a tantalizing chimichurri. Among sides, the sweet potato fries with ginger aïoli are hard to pass up, ditto for macaroni and cheese and roasted beets with horseradish cream. And in the tradition of a great steakhouse, the Maine lobster here is first-rate. Nick & Stef's offers a wine list deep in full-bodied reds, and for dessert, try the tart---and tall---lemon meringue pie. With current steakhouse prices well into the $40s or beyond, Nick & Stef’s stands out as quite a good value. The inviting contemporary design of the restaurant is warmed by white pine with mahogany accents and white linen.
