Bais Menachem Chabad, 444 W 40th St, Miami Beach, FL 33140.

Walk along the left of the building straight to the building in the back. $5 for weekday I believe. Beautiful Mikva.

Try Street Kitchen.

If you don't want that Harbour Grill, Kosh, Fuego are all upscale steakhouses.

Streets is considered more upscale than all those mentioned? I felt it more like rustic and not wine a dine fancy

Habrour grill is the fanciest of the bunch but has the worst food.

Do you want the best steak, or the best steakhouse?

OK, so define the best. Food, ambience, wait staff, etc.

[elazarmn]

Ah so what is @Avs175 asking? Food wise or style. My experience at fuego was awesome. They had a special that night of dino ribs. Actually liked them better than backyard. Great place overall

Disagree strongly. Harbour grill does not have an upscale ambiance with the horrible orange paint.

Kosh is way nicer ambiance. Probably the nicest in SoFlo.

Also Meat Bar has a good steak and decent ambiance.

No, @Lurker he doesn't want to celebrate his special occasion in YOUR BACKYARD.

Yep we need some more to work with because all of these places have some “mailos an chisronos”

If smelly canals count, I can get him a view of the water, super quiet, got some lights from Succos I can string up... Maybe even some wildlife, if that's his thing.

Thanks everyone for all the help! I happen to be really into ambiance, that's really important, but I also want the best steak too! Seems like you cant have it all, and there is no clear answer to one place that has both. Thanks for all the answers, I'll have to decide which one to go to. Much apprecaited!

Basically that.
Although there is a local crowd that takes over Meat Bar every so often and turns it into a club.
Ever try eating a steak with rap blasting your ear drums? Not fun.
