    Foots mentioned in another thread about name-dropping. These restaurant threads feel eerily similar...

    Okay.

    I go to Hall’s or 225 and I get a glass of single malt or two, a bottle of Zinfandel or two, and the biggest ribeye on the menu. Explain to me how that isn’t awesome.

    Yes, all of that, and the seafood tower deal, and some other appetizers.

    It was good, it wasn’t $1000+ good though.

    Agreed.

    It is rare I get a steak that's seasoned correctly, (meaning not covered in some concoction that takes over the flavor of the meat) and cooked to my preferred temp. Hell the last $60 steak I had out I ordered the ribeye and got the strip and it was an ugly strip at that and I refuse to spend that kind of money and have to suffer through eating it.

    I just want my steaks seasoned with kosher salt and fresh cracked pepper, cooked to temp, and not have butter or other bullshit seasoning or sauce put on it.

    My papa always said if your beef needs more than salt and pepper your beef is shitty.

    I'm not a big fan of going to steak restaurants in general. If I pay someone else to cook for me, I want something I don't know how to cook or something that is more complicated to cook than I am willing to attempt. I do the easy stuff myself. Damn near any idiot can cook a great steak if they buy a good cut and pay attention when grilling it. On top of that, it doesn't make a big mess in the kitchen that I have to clean up. Steak night to me is when I want to eat a good, easy meal and relax at home.

    The best meal(s) I've had in Charleston have consistently come from 82 Queen, and specifically their Roast Duck with Shrimp & Grits. Most of the other places seemed to be more like tourist traps.

    There used to be a great crab place right across the bridge in Mt. Pleasant down at the docks, but don't recall the name or if it's still there. That was 20+ years back.
