Ditto Morton's, Capital Grille, Smith & Wollensky - some are good, some not so much.

Personally, the nearest steak house I like is Bern's. As far as Shula's Miami Lakes location, it used to be very good - I held all my employee recognition events there for years. However, it has gone downhill in the last five years or so.
