Fleming's Prime Steakhouse   

Offering an alternative to the cattleman's club atmosphere at most steakhouses, Paul Fleming designed Fleming's Prime Steakhouse as a couples and family-friendly destination, much like his earlier triumphs, Z'Tejas Grill and P.F. Chang's. The lights are kept a little low, with custom-designed chandeliers giving off a soft glow throughout. Casual elegance is the name of the game, making Fleming's a fine choice for both business meetings and romantic evenings. If a family gathering or private party is on the horizon, private dining rooms can accommodate large groups, and staff members are ready and able to attend to your every need. The menu features USDA prime beef, hand-cut daily on site into steaks. A wide selection of sizes and cuts is offered, ranging from the 8-ounce petit filet mignon to the 40-ounce Porterhouse for two, with peppercorn and bearnaise sauce available on request. Other options include pork chops, marinated double breast of chicken and several seafood entrees such as charred salmon fillet with Cabernet butter sauce, grilled swordfish with mango salsa and lobster tails with drawn butter. Enticing desserts include the Chocolate Surprise and creme brulee. Wine is served by the glass, rather than just by the bottle, allowing customers to sample a few boutique labels without adding 50 bucks to the tab. More than 100 domestic and imported wines are available by the glass or by the bottle.
