Walter Mihm's Steakhouse

Recently visited with a group of friends.  We had a wonderful time in the layed back yet attentive atmosphere of the staff.  The bartender was friendly and welcomning as soon as we walked in the door.  We chatted and had a drink while the table was being set for our party.  The waitress was knowledgable and made recommendations based on our likes/dislikes.  We are all very pleased with our meals- from the steak, chicken, sides to the sandwiches (not to mention the endless Sangria)!  We enjoyed our meal so much that we spent an additional hour at the bar watching the game and chatting with the bar tender.  I would definitly recommend it here for all ages, party sizes, and occassions! YUM!

Recently changed name and owners to Neil Michael's Steak House.  

Most of the menu is unchanged except for the prices, which have gone up quite a bit.  Gone is the shrimp cocktail in favor of an ala carte raw bar.  I had several shrimp @ 4.75 ea and though they were well worth it, that's kinda steep for this economy.  I also had the ribeye steak which came with a few more vegetables than in the past.  The steak was good but not great, considering the price.

Most restaurants are struggling to stay afloat by offering daily specials and price fixed (Prix Fixe) deals.  Somehow these folks think they can make it, going in the opposite direction.  The food is good and the service is always polite, if a bit informal for the money.  

I still like the place quite a bit but their future is uncertain with this increase in price.  I know I won't be able to eat there as much as I would like to but maybe I'm not their target demographic?  In the past, it was always a matter of choosing this place or one of the mid priced chains (Outback or Bonefish).  

However, I think they jus priced themselves out of the market.  If I'm going to pay for a $35 dollar (ala carte) entree then I'll go to Ruth Chris or Peter Luger's instead.

My boyfriend and I love Walter Mihm's ,the food is fantastic and the servers are wonderful. We are very picky about our steak and this is one of the few places that it comes out cooked perfectly!
