As an unsuspecting traveler visiting Memphis for a week on business, I decided I would celebrate the passing of mid-week and dine at a ""quality"" steakhouse. I narrowed my search down to two: Butcher Shop or Majestic Grille. I gambled.. and I lost. I expressed to the waiter that I was having trouble deciding between the rib-eye and the New York strip. He recommended rib-eye. Right on buddy.. If you like your steak 60-70% fat then this is the place for you. After I finished the meal he saw my plate and the war zone created by my attempts to find a legitimate piece of meat and had the audacity to comment that ""maybe I should choose the New York strip next time."" Next time? Yea.. probably not. If you are in Memphis and looking for a good steak please dine anywhere except the Butcher Shop.
Pros: Close walk to my hotel
Cons: The Steak
