Steakhouse

Steakhouse or chophouse is a restaurant that specializes in beef steaks and other individual portions of meat, known as chops. These restaurants are often known for offering a more upscale dining experience with a wide variety of steak options, including filet mignon, rib eye, and T-bone, among others.

History

The concept of the steakhouse dates back to the 19th century, with the opening of traditional chophouses in the United Kingdom. These establishments served individual portions of meat, known as chops, to their patrons. The tradition was carried over to the United States, where steakhouses began to gain popularity in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

Types of Steakhouses

There are several types of steakhouses, each offering a unique dining experience and menu options.

Traditional

Traditional steakhouses, also known as classic American steakhouses, typically offer a range of beef steaks, lamb, chicken, fish, and shellfish. The meat is usually cooked on a grill, broiled, or roasted.

Brazilian

Brazilian steakhouses, also known as churrascarias, offer a unique dining experience where waiters bring skewers of meat to the table, which is then carved directly onto the diners' plates.

Argentine

Argentine steakhouses, also known as parrillas, are known for their open-fire grills where beef is cooked over wood or charcoal.
