Stop eating out if you can't take some small disappointment.

We had a $42.00 rib eye that was a disappointment. This was before beef prices soared.

Yep, chose the result that supports my position, but it *is* a result from the Google Machine.
Wow... One citing... Out of how many that say otherwise?

But keep bangin' that drum!

Never been to the Chop House. Not likely to go since we have many we know and like already. This is an interesting thread though.
The most expensive meal I ever purchased was a lobster dinner for the gal I was dating at the time. She liked the lobster so much, she married me and I'll never finish paying for that dinner. And the most expensive dinner I ever purchased was also the best purchase I ever made.

Sams club. $17 pound prime ribeye. Better than any restaurant

Well, two actually but who's counting? I said sometimes, you said never, the readers can decide which was more accurate.

If Delmonico's, the restaurant the Delmonico steak was named after, uses ribeye as their "Delmonico" steak then that's good enough for me.

I agree. Have had some good meals and great bar. But too many bad meals. Everyone raves about pork ribeye but it was inedible twice. Duck was great but steak were mediocre. For those prices I would rather go to Marks Prime in Ocala or Ruth's Chris or Capital Grill in Orlando. I'm done with Chop House. Outback is better.

Sounds like they are not the same thing at all...
