For a slightly more earthy dining experience, may I suggest Joey's Meat Cutters Bar and Grill on Orleans in the Eastern Market.
While their main bill-of-fare centers on the standard burgers and beer, they also have a T-bone that will make you ashamed to be a carnivore. It is large in the way the Hindenberg was large, and it is a tender as mother's love.
i have heard you can call a day ahead and custom order a particular cut of meat if T-bones aren't to your liking. Haven't done that myself. Their meat is fresh. Very fresh. Those moos you hear in the morning are on your plate at noon.
