Located on the cusp of Pioneer Square, this popular steakhouse is just a walk across the street from Qwest Field--so expect a sports-fan crowd. The masculine decor of crown molding, dark walls, and historic photos of Seattle are the perfect complement to the heavy menu of steaks, chops, burgers, and seafood. The belt will need to be loosened after a meal here.
