Fleming's Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar

Fleming's Prime Steakhouse & Wine Bar Restaurant Review:

About the restaurant: Founded by restaurateur Paul Fleming --- the original P.F. in P.F. Chang's --- and William Allen III, this steakhouse chain distinguishes itself with its top-quality meats and notable wine program.

Food & Drinks: Expect a wine list featuring numerous hard-to-find American boutique wines, as well as renowned national and international labels. The USDA Prime hand-cut beef includes rib-eyes, filets and New York strips, all seared by intensely high-heat cooking for the signature steakhouse outer crust. Sides run to rosemary and garlic cipollini onions, while a salad could mean a chilled wedge of iceberg lettuce with grape tomatoes, red onion, caramelized bacon and blue cheese dressing. Seafood, too, is well-thought-out, be it North Atlantic lobster tails or Alaskan king crab legs. Finish with a familiar dessert of chocolate lava cake or crème brûlée.
