Best Steak House

You walk in, gab a salad from the cooler and a tray. Put in your dressing of choice then order your steak or food. By the time you’re finished with your salad and had a few sips of your drink your steak is brought out to you with a baked tater with butter and a slice of buttered Texas toast. It’s my first time here and I don’t know why it’s taken me so long to stop in, maybe the décor which is 1970’s diner or that it’s in a little strip mall. The steak came out within just a few minutes cooked to order, tasty, easy to cut and quite flavorful. I’m not a huge steak eater but this was delish! It’s a no frills kinda place for certain and I’ll be back!

Ok this is not a place for a date or to impress someone… But it is awesome for what it is.
Needed a bite while helping a friend out fixing basement, did not want burger or fast food, so he recommended this place.
Good quality, homemade no frills food.
Had the gyro and chips and it was great, and cost less that a mc Donald’s meal, which we all know is total rubbish.
I will go again and take a date or perhaps the wife as that’s more sensible — good food nice owners totally chilled and low key.

Sometimes looks can be deceiving which is the case of the very aesthetically displeasing but tastefully pleasing Best Steak House in south Minneapolis. Located 2 blocks off of 35w, the steaks are very reasonable with decent flavor served with a nice simple iceberg salad and buttery Texas toast. Its a very simple place for a quick steak without the frills and price of a Manny’s but good as Outback.

With rock-​bottom prices and a website that doesn’t show their street address, I was skeptical that Best Steak House could deliver a decent lunch. No disappointment.
This isn’t your hip, just got a job in downtown and want to impress Kelly Kopowski type of steakhouse. It’s just a good place to go with your buddies for lunch or for a good meal before a game. The 8oz sirloin was thin, but cooked nicely. Sides were great and the portion size didn’t lower my afternoon productivity at work.
I’ll be back at Best Steak House again soon with everyone I’m not trying to impress at work.

My family and I went there to try out something different besides fast food chains.
We could not have been more disappointed. I can say that it may have been an off day for them being that other reviews are pretty complimentary. We shared with them that we had never been there before. We were all smiles and the kids were excited and ready to have some steak (big treat). It was clear that we were annoying them by not ordering immediately. If I’m wrong I’m wrong but smiling is good for you people. So we order and are not given any directions as to what to do. There is a process there… tray, silverware, salad, cup etc. We didn’t know anything. We pay and stand there looking like fools until the woman says «can i help you?» and passive aggressively tells us we can go sit down.
Salad is so wet and bottom of bowl has a pool of water. ick
our 10 year old doesn’t want to eat anything but the bread which was a first for this boy
steak was not resembling steak. I know it was steak but it was just awful. chewy and I can’t believe we just spent $ 27 dollars on this kind of food.
even two pops were out of syrup
french fries were dry and kids didn’t eat them. Have you ever heard of a kid not eating their fries?
For a few moments we joked how we may be on candid camere. we chose to laugh it off and move on… We looked up reviews while sitting there so I decided to give it a go when I got home.
Baked potato was ok
Bread was the best item. problem is I can make a potato and prepare bread at home. we went out for STEAK
The bummer really is that when I explained nicely at the end that it was a let down there was no reaction whatsoever. just a dim look at us. dismissive. No question as to what was bad or what we could do to remedy. **
sorry for the long review but boy oh boy. this is a mom who rarely takes the kids out to eat unless its a special occasion. we went to cub and ended up grilling real steaks.

I agree with Tim K. — this place is no-​frills. I’ll be honest that I initially pre-​judged Best Steak House by its name and non-​descript appearance. But, it’s just a few blocks away from my house which makes it very convenient when I don’t want to cook dinner (or spend $$ at Wise Acre Eatery). Best Steak House reminds me of the café I worked at in high school in my small southern Minnesota town. Burgers, steaks, chicken, fries, onion rings, etc. The atmosphere is quiet, blue-​collar, and friendly. Nothin’ fancy, but a good neighborhood spot to grab a cheeseburger and fries or an affordable steak dinner.

The Texas Toast here is the best, steak is good too although for how reasonable the prices are here it’s great. Every week there is a different daily ‘Manager Special’ that includes steak, baked potato, Texas Toast, and a salad for under $ 10.00. The meat here is just as good as many of the more expensive options that are around, and unlike places that are a little closer to the center of the city parking here isn’t a hassle.
As far as I can tell this place is operated by a couple Greek guys. They have an accent and there are photos of Greece everywhere on the walls, very friendly service. The layout reminds me alot of a 1960’s or 1970’s era cafeteria, not super stylish but by no means an unpleasant or run down atmosphere. Besides, if they did too much updating the prices would probably be alot higher, and for the most part it is those prices that bring me here.

I agree with Elaine, this is a no-​frills place for a good steak on a budget. I’ve found the atmosphere to be charming, no pretenses to be found and what you see is what you get. The place is filled (but not packed) with a variety of every day «meat and potatoes» hard working people (read: lack of hipsters), and like most of Minnesota pretty friendly! If you’re having a day where you want some tasty food without spending a longer time getting ready than eating, Best Steak House may be your «best» bet!
