Couple things that I feel like I need to address.
Number one steak house is Capital Grill. Followed by Flemings then Ruth (as far as chain steak houses go)
Chef Ramseys BLT steakhouse in Charlotte was the best steak i got out though.
Steak medium rare to rare is the way to go if your eating fresh meat or ordering at a nice place.
The cheaper cut of meat and longer it's sat in a store or in a fridge needs to be cooked more. This is why growing up my pops would burn everything. No one was eating filets and ribeyes growing up. The steak we did get was damn near expired.
People need to understand the difference tho in order to judge what tastes good and how it's cooked.

Wtf
When I order my steak, I just tell them to walk the cow through a warm room. That's good enough for me
Man, I was SEVERELY disappointed with Capital Grille on the two occasions I went. I know locations differ, but the steak had zero flavor or seasonings. Best ever was Bob's Steak and Chop, original location in Dallas. Fork tender...
Best steak I ever had was at Capital Grill in Chicago this year, ordered the same thing at the Capital grill in Denver a few months later and was good but not life changing.
I've never eaten at RC or Houston's outside of Chicago tho, maybe they are more consistent.

Interesting man. Sorry to hear it. The couple I been to have been on point.
But I hear you. Our first time going to Mortons was in downtown Miami on vacay and loved it. Went up to the one in Baltimore at the time and it was terrrrrrrrible. So I get it

Nah I'm serious. Some high end places wont cook a steak past medium. If you don't know then it's on you
Gordon Ramsay for instance wont do it at some of his restaurants.

medium or medium rare. i'm buying the steak because i want to enjoy it as i'm eating it. if it's just for sustenance there are cheaper meats to buy.

I used to only order well done steak. If there was any color at all in it, I would ask them to cook it some more. Then one day I ordered well done and got some steak so burnt it made me sick to my stomach. After that I flipped completely in the other direction and started only ordering medium rare or rare.
One time I went with my father to Sparks steak house in Manhattan and ordered rare filet mignon. He took one look at it like "How could you eat that??" I like being in a group of West Indians and ordering rare when everyone else is complaining that their well done isn't cooked enough.
Now, I'll buy even cheap "Western Beef" steaks and grill them rare myself.
I tried that once in Belgium. It was good, but the idea of it is taking it too far for me.
BTW, for those who think rare meat is just some kind of "European" thing, my mother just recently came back from a tour of Ethiopia. She learned that there's actually a tradition there to eat raw marinated beef. (She didn't try it):
