The New York Grill, Ontario CA
If I can, make it there, I'll make it, Any-where!, it's up to you, New - York, Onnnnnnntario!!! Upon arriving at The New York Grill, in Ontario, CA, this blogger was immediately disappointed to find that none of the employees had even a trace of a New York accent. So, that's suspicious. But, it was the first Steak Mafia meeting of 2011, and, all the employees were wearing ties, so, there was excitement in the air.

Delicious! One of the best porterhouses I've had. Cooked perfect, looked great. Pricey. Good service. Atmosphere a little upscale for me but a good time nonetheless.

A little pretentious, lighting should be lower. Great quality steak, but a little lacking in flavor, very tender. Oysters Rockefeller were delicious.

Good Steak! I like the steakhouse atmosphere better [e.g. Pinnacle Peak] but can't complain. The steak was that good. Didn't like the sides but we aren't a Sides Club!

Nice place but didn't pay a lot of attention to us! Wine selection lacked variety, (no Sangiovese).

The Steak Mafia Dinner #12

Clearman's Steak 'n' Stein - Pico Rivera
So, Clearman's Steak & Stein is owned by the same people who own North Woods Inn, but they have a different name and different location. However, the menu and decor are very similar, (yes, there is a naked lady painting on the wall) but this place has more of an old-mob-hangout vibe. Very good, Capice?

Cheese bread - 3 stars! Cabbage salads - red and green delicious. Naked lady portrait - comforting. Largest baked potato EVER!!, but didn't care for the onion-ranch sour cream. Let us tour the kitchen and see the steaks on the grill.
