Description
If you want to get close to the source of your steak, take a stroll past Gallaghers glass-enclosed street-side meat locker. Inside, the mustily masculine restaurant attracts a largely male clientele with its huge wooden bar and photos of (largely female) celebrities on the walls. The uncomplicated menu holds few surprises, though patrons are pleased to discover that the aged beef is flamed over hickory logs. The sirloin was better marbled and more flavorful than the touted porterhouse; the creamed spinach was watery and bland. But quibbles are for wimps. Stare down a few sides of beef in that locker, and keep eating.
Hours
Daily noon–midnight.
October 2007- I was at a free event in the Trophy Room. The event was a lot of fun. I didn't eat much since there was such a big crowd, but what I had was good. The one negative, there was an employee who said he was from Canada that kept trying to ask different girls out on a date. I found that to be very unprofessional and it made me feel very uncomfortable.
