Steak 48

When the boss said let's have a team dinner, you drop what you're doing and go.

Since I've only been to Steak 48 for a quick drink, I'd thought better grab the opportunity for some yummy food.

For appetizers: they have the yummy pork belly.  Very delicious, can't go wrong with this.  It has a hint of sweet and a hint of chili, very nicely bound together.

Crispy shrimp, it is a bit sweet and sour, which reminds me of the Chinese version of the crispy sweet and sour shrimp for closest description.

Crab Stack, and who doesn't like guac, guac, and more guac?!

I had the petit filet mignon.  That's 8 oz right there.

Crab and shrimp mac and cheese.  It has cheddar and parmesan, and you can definitely taste the crab meat in there.

This is my neighbor's dish, which I was admiring for a bit while wiping my drool.

Chilean Sea Bass, has a crispy on the outside and it is not tough at all on the inside.  Very light, just a lot of it.

Other sides: creamed spinach, sautéed spinach, mac and cheese....

Bacon Brussels Sprouts, and not pictured: truffle fries.

Afterwards enjoyed a decaf.

Crispy Banana Split, literally cinnamon fried bananas, and ice cream in the middle.  The ice cream seems like a soft serve in the middle, it doesn't have the 'fight' that normal ice cream has.  Though, it was getting darker, and can't see it very well.  But with the fried banana plus ice cream reminded me of Ice Cream tempura at some Japanese restaurants.  Except, more cinnamon-y.  Pretty good, definitely a shared dish.

Their service is top notch, from the moment you walk in the door, the staff at the bar, to the person leading you to your table.  Everyone thank you for being there.  That said, where they fell short, they are very quick to action, and that is always appreciated especially at this level of eatery.

As expected, best thing to do is make a reservation, and we opted to valet, but walking to parking garage is not far at all.  Either way would work.
