Gotham meets SF with this outpost of celeb chef Michael Mina's steak-and-whiskey-themed powerhouse. Looking to turn the tables on your cardiologist? Decadent is the only way to describe the steaks, and that's not because of the portion size or price (though both are hefty), it's how the beef is cooked. Employing an elaborate process of his own devise, Mina's steaks are slowly poached in butter for an hour in thermal circulators that are precise to within a tenth of a degree, then seared for a minute on each side on a wood-fired grill. The result is super-tender, perfectly cooked steaks worth their weight in...butter. For those feeling less carnivorous, there's seafood options, including a sumptuous lobster pot pie.
