They say, "The USDA grade of beef depends on really just one factor: marbling." And, they say that their steaks have "exceptional" marbling. So, if that is the case, why don't their steaks have a USDA Prime grade?
Regarding the Kansas City Steaks, they are pricey. They charge $120 per pound for USDA Prime filet mignon, as compared to $35 per pound at Publix. I have never been disappointed with the Publix steaks. You can definitely tell the difference in tenderness between USDA Prime vs USDA Choice.

If you base your steaks on price then you are correct......both Omaha and KC Steaks are overpriced. We base our steaks on taste and continue to buy from Omaha a couple times a year. We also buy from Publix for the convienence. But back to the OP...... if you are looking for some atmosphere we suggest Chop House or Lopez. Outside our go to is Berns in Tampa but it's a process and challenge to get into the place.
