This Gordon Biersch? It's a damn brewpub.

a brewpub that also has great meat and potatoes. it's not a bar, it's more upscale and yes it brews its beers onsite.

the hanger steak is good. never been to the SF one, but SJ downtown is where i've had the hanger steak. very good. (i now live in DC) for filet mignon in San Jose you gotta go Hungry Hunter.

If you guys haven't tried one yet a relatively new cut is available here in Texas called a Flat Iron Cut, I think it is one of the top 3 cuts, and probably right before filet for me.

Flat Iron is actually just a portion of the chuck steak cut out, and then sold for 2+x the price.

Okay. You can be thoroughly disregarded.

me = meat wrapper.

London Broil is not a primal cut, but rather a recipe. Some call for flank steak, while others call for top round. Some regions (and even stores within a reigon), though, consider london broil to be cubed flank steak, rolled, cut, and skewered.

My favorite: porterhouse.

Filet lacks the flavor of rib eye or a strip steak.

But with some good sauces filet is pretty tough to beat.

I've only been once, but the the food at the local Gordon Biersch was amazing the time I went. The ambience wasn't anything like a brewery; I felt like I was at an upscale restaurant (and so did my check).

new york strip. best combination of taste and tenderness.

Brisket is the tastiest. damn, I love me some good brisket.

As for sauce, bernaise rules.

Have you ever had a hanger steak? Dry aged prime beef?

[/ QUOTE ]

yes i have. my favorite is at Gordon Biersch (try it if you are around DC), but it's not close to the best filet mignon i've ever had.

[/ QUOTE ]

If your favorite steak of any variety is at Gordon Biersch, you should probably just sit back, read, and learn.
