Steak House
A steakhouse, steak house, or chophouse is a restaurant that specializes in steaks and chops. Modern steakhouses may also carry other cuts of meat including poultry, roast prime rib, and veal, as well as fish and other seafood.

The oldest continuously operating steakhouse in the United States is the Old Homestead Steakhouse in New York City, established in 186 ...
