There are things that are used as a metaphor for reliability: the rock of Gibraltar, tomorrow’s sunrise, a steak at Flemings. The basis of this place’s fame and success are the selection of top quality aged prime beef and the expertise of the grillmaster. Prefer it petite and tender? Their filet mignon will cut like butter, and if you like a bit of extra zing you can get it with a porcini mushroom rub. Going for full flavor? Order the bone-in ribeye or a New York strip with cracked peppercorns and their house steak sauce. They have all the appropriate sides and trimmings, plus a famously good wine selection that complements all things meaty. You pay a little more for the best, but you get what you pay for.
