Really like Gayot's Top 10 French Bistros in NYC - but how can you really list the top 10 Steakhouses in America? There are probably 10 very good ones in NYC alone (I really liked Bobby Van's was it - huge bone in ribeye that could stand up to anything and StripSteak in Greenwich Village is always highly rated http://www.yelp.com/search?find_desc...anhattan%2C+NY )
and a number in Chicago - where some think the fabled Gibson's is down the list, not to mention Dallas, Portland, Seattle, Montana, Idaho (The Pioneer in Sun Valley for example http://travel.nytimes.com/2010/12/12...l/12hours.html serves a great steak - charcoal grilled right in front of your eyes). Washington State - and on and on.
Hey - there are 3 good steakhouses here in San Diego alone, and a couple more in Palm Springs/greater Coachella Valley - as well as Phoenix, and even several small towns in Oregon (where they raise Kobe Beef - see http://www.wagyu.org/oregon.htm) and so forth.
Heck - we raised our own beef where I grew up in Southern Oregon (Klamath Falls) and the Angus and Hereford were second to none - as we have the best Alfalfa you can find! It was so good (due to the volcanic based soil/former lake bed) - that the Japanese were buying up land/ranches in the area back in the 90's - so they could ship this premium "grass" back to Japan for their Kobe Beef.

Guess the Kobe Beef/Wagyu Beef Assoc in Oregon didn't print - but there are a number of ranches raising these cattle - with help from research at Oregon State University. Here is one for example: http://www.suttoncreekcattlecompany.com/

And Oregon Kobe Beef was served at a White House/State dinner for the President of Mexico.

Yawn. Any steakhouse list that overlooks the Land of Magic Dinner Club in Logan Montana (don't blink) is seriously lame.

I've been to 6 of the 10 so here is MHO
Alexander's #1? - not in my book
Bern's and Gibson's could share the #1 spot
Peter Luger and Prime could share #2 spot
Bone's in #3 spot
can't comment on the rest, but Alexander's would probably not make my list or if it did it would be #10 spot.
JMHO.

You are having the wrong list, 2011. The good one which just got published is for 2012 at http://www.gayot.com/best-restaurant...uses/main.html.
Could you, please, correct. Thank you Sophie Gayot GAYOT.com

Mais Non! Good for you Sophie for being so diligent.
Again, loved your NYC Bistro list - and we wound up at a tres reasonable, traditional Bistro - Tout Va Bien, where they have a nice house wine - but also poured a very good Sangria (complimentary), but next time I do want to try at least a couple on your list.
And maybe get to Jubilee for their Sunday brunch and complimentary (unlimited?) Bloody Marys or Mimosas.
Merci Beaucoup.
