Strip House steakhouses
On Open Table yesterday I was surprised to find we now have a Strip House in Naples (Fla). It's at the Naples Grand Hotel. I had heard the one in New York is great. And I know there's one in Las Vegas. Any comments before I go drop the big bucks to try it out? Should it really be worth the money compared to other good steakhouses?
(I do have 3 Open Table certificates for $50 each, so this seems like a good use for one or more of those).

I think that's the idea. I know the original in NYC has a "bordello" decor of red and semi-pornographic pictures on the walls.
But clever key work, BeachGirl. Can you make them twirl?

Interesting, f and b. I read through the New York reviews and several mentioned how for New York it seemed so spacious. But like all such things, the reviews were very mixed.
The general consensus seems to be that the best bet is the namesake "New York Strip".

Since it was my first trip to NY they seemed way to close for my taste but apparently that is standard procedure for NY.
The decor is as you say burlesque but not overly so.
The goose fat potatoes were excellent as well.
It was a really great meal and I try to go to a steak house on every trip I take.

Never been to the Strip House, but there's a wonderful tapas bar in Austin (Louie's 106) that I like to frequent.
Tapas bar is plain as day when written, over a crackly cell phone it sounds like something different.
Those of you who know Texas (PM) know how every town has many of the other variety.
