Hence the world class rating.
I do think it's overpriced though. Probably the most expensive kosher restaurant out there, especially the signature steak menu.

Very expensive but considring it's packed, seems like they found the right equilibrium.

I agree with the rating guidelines, but those 3 factors can't be taken into account in certain categories.  If I'm going for fast food, I'm not looking for service or ambience as much as I do in a regular sit down restaurant. Thus, the food would account for maybe 80% of the score IMO.


of course u can. But why not rate them amongst the top rated?  If you want the best burger sandwich u might not care the ambiance or the speed it takes to come out... And even more so....the price

  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.

Not at all. Food is very good. ambiance is not as nice as other places, but if rating just on taste alone I would give it a nice rating.

It reminded me more of Dougies than a classy place.  And the food I had there was good but nothing to write home about.
That being said I purposely didn't rank it until I try it again.

2011.
It was good, but the steaks and ribs were all drowned in very similar sweet sauces.  Which is fine but doesn't make it awesome.
The free dips were just OK and the fries and mashed potatoes were very bland.
And they didn't have the Gaza Strip steak that people had recommended.
Service was quite poor and ambiance is meh.
Can't imagine why anyone would enjoy that more than Rare?

Probably deserves a 6.75 or so.

The gaza is the best steak they have. Its funny you say that because the one time I went to Rare I had a bad experience. I ordered a filet steak with mashed potatoes and the plates came empty with the steak on a potato patty and that is it! Not to say the food is not good there, but I was not impressed at all. when one orders a steak he expects the plate to have something besides the steak on it (maybe a salad or even that drizzle that restaurants do), but nothing.
