C5’s Take
Our picks include: Sullivan’s Steakhouse, Del Frisco’s, Carpe Diem, Passion8, Upstream, Aria, 5Church, Fleming’s, BLT Steak, Blue, Global and Bonterra. Also, how much do you hate it when you realize the restaurant kind of cheaped out on the prix fixe menu? Nobody likes the skirt steak over the filet.
