Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
- Mastro's - They hold Awards Show parties here because it's located in ooh la la Beverly Hills. It's dark and steakhouse-y, but bring a sweater; for some reason, it feels like a meat locker inside. 246 N Canon Drive Beverly Hills, CA 90210 (310) 888-8782 www.mastrossteakhouse.com
- The Palm - Fun, with caricatures all over the walls, so you don't feel like you have to be wearing a silk smoking jacket and holding a cigar. 9001 Santa Monica Boulevard Los Angeles, CA 90069 (310) 550-8811 www.thepalm.com
- BOA Steakhouse - The one at The Grafton Hotel is swanky, and you might want to bring your sunglasses for all the bright bling inside. The Santa Monica location is much less stressful (on your wardrobe, that is), catering to laid back westsiders and tourists. 8462 West Sunset Boulevard, West Hollywood, CA, (323) 650-8383, www.boasteak.com
- Nick & Stef's - It's downtown, which is a sort of pain if you don't live downtown, and not very inviting, since downtown LA after dark isn't quite happenin' (yet). However, they put their beef out on display, which is very very sexy. 330 South Hope Street Los Angeles, CA (213) 680-0330 http://www.patinagroup.com/nickStef/
- Sizzler - Just kidding. Wanted to make sure you were paying attention.
- Ruth's Chris Steakhouse - When there are more than say, five of a certain restaurant, you can't help but feel like you're eating at Outback Steakhouse. However, Ruth keeps it real. For goodness' sake, the steaks come out in pools of sizzling butter! 224 S Beverly Drive Beverly Hills, CA 90212 (310) 859-8744 www.ruthschris.com
- Morton's Steakhouse - Ooh la la. It's like an observatory with all the star sighting you can do there. Luckily, the steaks are good, too. 435 S. La Cienega Boulevard Los Angeles CA 90048 (310) 246-1501 www.mortons.com
- Pacific Dining Car - There's one downtown, which is better than the Santa Monica location according to S. Irene Virbila (LA Times critic), but Santa Monica is closer to the westsiders. It may not be the best of the eight, but if you're craving steak at 4 am, Pacific Dining Car is open. 2700 Wilshire Boulevard, Santa Monica, CA 90403 www.pacificdiningcar.com
Of course, if you're not in LA, you can always check out the best steakhouses near you, here!

I have not been to that Morton's but have been to the one across from South Coast Plaza in Costa Mesa and it was really delicious. I have been there two or three times.

A few weeks ago I had the Bourbon Steak topped with crispy onions. They could bottle and sell the bourbon sauce. It's that good. And the steak was of good quality ... not the gristle (sp?) they served in the 1990s. The dish included a handful of seasoned shrimp (a little too spicy for my liking), grilled vegetables and a baked potato for like $13.
Sure, there's no white tablecloth, but that's the trade off. Bring your own, if it's that important.
Pitch your pride, Sarah. Put on some dark sunglasses and give Sizzler another try.
P.S.
The Sizzling Trio is another good bet. It has steak with red onions, shrimp on rice and a chicken breast with roasted corn. There's so much food, I haven't finished one yet, which makes the next day's lunch a breeze to fix.
