The Hawaiian steak is what my brother always recommends. I still haven't tried it myself.

The Hawaiian steak is good.

That being said...I would not consider it a steak house. It's more of just a upper scale resturaunt.

Good food though.

I think I remember the shaved prime rib sandwich being great.

Something casual is fine.

You have to get the spinach and artichoke dip.

The ribs, burgers, and steaks are very good. So are the seafood specials.

With an app, entree, and drink, you'll probably spend ~50. Its a pretty cheap restaurant for the food... I go there often after work

An upscale restaurant that serves burgers? You kiddies have never been to a true upscale restaurant.

First, no one said it was an upscale restaurant.

Second, you want me to list out upscale restaurants that serve burgers? Ever have a burger of ground prime rib, braised short ribs, truffles, and foie gras? Or how about a kobe or wagyu burger? You think non-upscale restaurants would serve these burgers?

$50/person is probably the max you can spend if you get the most expensive item on the menu + your own appetizer + a couple of drinks. I usually spend $30-35 for ribs + splitting an appetizer with others + tax/tip.
