Default good porterhouse steak

Not being a meat eater, I have no idea where to take our son this Sunday for a good steak. It's his birthday and his tradition is to have a porterhouse for his dinner. Thanks

Longhorn Steakhouse and Outback are good, for chains. I have never had a steak at Lopez but would be quite willing to take the gamble.

Just checked Lopez menu and they don't offer a porterhouse but some other tasty options. http://legacyrestaurant.com/images/dinner-menu.pdf

If money is not critical, you might try Jeffrey Paul's Chop House in Leesburg. It's supposed to be the best in the area.

If money is no object I stay away from JPs. Marks Prime Steakhouse on the square in Ocala is in the class of the top steakhouse chains like Morton's or Ruth's Chris

We vote for Vic Embers---been there several times for special occasions. Take US 441 and it's on the right side before you get to the Leesburg Airport. They serve great steaks but don't know for sure about the one you want. You can get a reservation at Vic's so I would call and ask about a Porterhouse steak. Hope you have a great time on your Son's birthday!

Bern's Steakhouse cannot be beat by anyone. Very pricey, but extremely good!
