A JUICY STEAK SHOULD BE DRIPPING WITH FLAVOR, BUT SHOULD IT ALSO BE DRIPPING IN STEAK SAUCE? OMAHA FLAVOR Is Steak Sauce a Crime?
LOCALLY OWNED STEAKHOUSES Visitors enjoy the delicious thrill of finding the best steak in Omaha. Locals engage in friendly debates on the topic. But something everyone can agree upon is that the hunt is delicious – here are a few of the classics:
• 801 Chophouse at the Paxton • Anthony’s Steakhouse • Brother Sebastian’s • Cascio’s Steak House • The Drover • Farmer Brown’s Steakhouse • Gorat’s • The Grey Plume • J’s on Jackson • Jerico’s Restaurant • Johnny’s Cafe • Omaha Prime • Tavern 180
Depends on whom you ask. In Omaha, our steakhouses are more concerned with the cut of the meat, the mesmerizing marbling pattern and the intricate preparation process that all culminates in the perfect bite every time. With an industry dating back to the 1880s, steak is in Omaha’s DNA and calls to all carnivores to make the pilgrimage for a legendary cut of beef.
It’s tempting to believe steak is inherently delicious, but there’s more to a cut of meat than just the quality. Preparation is key and this city takes it seriously. Flame-broiled, woodfire-grilled, or whiskey-doused—all delicious and all techniques Omaha has used to perfect the steak. The Drover is a landmark chophouse and home to whiskey marinated Certified Angus Beef steak. Monarch Prime & Bar is a modern steakhouse featuring a first-of-its kind, in-house, dry-age process that infuses steaks with a rich flavor—it will change the way carnivores view beef. Omaha Prime is one of the few restaurants in the country to serve only the best USDA Prime steaks and chops selected based on marbling, quality and flavor. An Omaha steakhouse since 1922, Johnny’s Café serves savory hand-cut, agedon-premises beef in a classic Western atmosphere. It’s only appropriate that Warren Buffett is a steak lover. At Gorat’s, an Omaha institution for more than 70 years, look to a neighboring table and you may see the Omaha billionaire dining out at one of his favorite spots.
