Click's Steakhouse

Really really good steaks. Burgers are very good too. The salad bar has a nice selection and they always have a soup option. Pies are tempting because they're so pretty but they're mostly meringue. Affordable.

Get here early if you can.  Expect a 30-45 minute wait, especially on weekends.

Great steaks, and not really that expensive for a quality steakhouse.  Make mine a ribeye, medium rare!   Steaks come with a decent salad bar and some really good rolls.  I've also had the burgers here for lunch, they're great for when you don't want to shell out $18 for a steak.  Plenty of other options, seafood, chicken, but I generally can't stray from the steaks.

Try and save room for pie if you can!

This place is heaven for steak lovers. Being one myself, and living with a vegetarian, I enter this sanctuary of meat with giddy anticipation.

The country stylized front, rusted tin metal roof, and buffalo pelt decor make me wonder if they keep their cows out behind the restaurant waiting their turn. Combine the family feel of the wait staff and the smells wafting from the kitchen and the result is a nostalgia for home.  The main difference between Click's and home is evident in the size and quality of the steaks.

I almost always order the ribeye as it has the perfect balance of marbled buttery fat and tender pink steak, while still leaving room for a trip to the salad bar.  For a heftier appetite, or on my birthday, indulging in the glorious porterhouse is a breathtaking experience.  The steaks are aged with patience, seasoned expertly, and cooked slowly in order to capture the full flavor.

As the flavors build into an ethereal state, I imagine the cows lining up out back and see clearly that they await, not their demise, but their perfection.  Only the best are chosen, and they can sense that their heroic sacrifice will become an epic tale for each diner.  Immersed in the essence of savory beef, I feel interchangeably connected to the pride this glorious animal felt in his final moments.
