The worst steak I have ever been served was in an Aberdeen Angus in London, on my first trip to the UK over 20 years ago. Yuck.

Le Cellier in the Canada Pavilion at Epcot served me something disgusting once too, I had to send it back and couldn't eat anything else I was so put off :eek:

That reminds me. I was taken to Disneyland for my birthday a few years ago by the girl I was dating and her family (who were all way into Disney). We went to Blue Bayou for dinner and the steak was nearly inedible and it cost something like $35 too :rolleyes:

Black Angus' was pretty awful for me.

Ya know..

Can't say that Black Angus wasn't too bad in MCO.. I quite liked the value paid..

but it was during lunch, and it was their early bird special.. I mean for $12 bucks what do you expect..

Then we all went to Disney World.. :)

Wow that sounds excellent, bluuuuuuuuueeee and still mooooooing :D

Worst 'steak's and worst 'food' golden corral! I will turn the other way if a group of people want to go there, who cares if it is $10. I don't want to pay $10 to get sick.

+1. On my only experience, I received an absolutely awful cut of meat...try and tasteless (I forget what the cut was but it doesn't matter...I'm not going back)

During our Christmas Break Vacation, we went to Corral twice.. was sick of spending close to $150 to $200 per meal at Walt Disney World..

After about 4 character meals.. and about 8:00 pm.. just wanted quick eats.. so went to Golden Corral..

How do they stay in business? So much food, for so little price? Is it just MCO, or is Corral the same across the US.

That place gets my vote. We tried one 10 years ago for a joke. It was utterly and completely horrible. And yet they are everywhere in London, filled with fools and tourists who know no better. Desperately sad.

I'd agree that really good steak in the US isn't too my taste. I like the chewer grass fed beef to that raised on corn. But nothing, nothing will beat Santo beef from Vanuatu.

Any Taiwanese steak restaurant :td:

Dude..

Severe after morning upset stomach, eating the beef ribs from Montana's..

ouch.. hurting all morning.. slept until noon

I'm curious if you've tried the Besh Steakhouse inside Harrah's New Orleans? I haven't been there myself, but I've heard good things from friends.

In a city of great food, John Besh may now be considered the top chef/restaurateur, and of his half dozen restaurants, this is the one he put his name on. I'd be shocked if it really was one of the world's worst.

Any steakhouse that can't serve up a decent steak is criminal in my eyes, I mean, that's what you're marketing yourself as - steak specialists - so you should be doing a good job!

The worst thing is when the steak is overcooked, and this happens so much I'm now quite reluctant to purchase steak anywhere but at the poshest of posh restaurants.

Why do so many restaurants think that if you ask for medium rare, it's acceptable to serve you something that's charred to a crisp, right through?! I've had to ask for my money back more than once (I won't ask them to redo the food - who knows what they might do to it....)

Aberdeen Steak House, simply disgusting. I'm guessing Buffalo Grill is the same. I see them a lot in France.

As for the posters who mentioned they won't go to a steakhouse because they can do it better at home, that is kind of a surprise to me. We can do most things better but it is hard or nearly impossible for us to find the best cuts where we live, plus we just don't have the equipment to do it properly. We can do wonders on our Weber grill, but simply can't duplicate what we can get commercially, steak-wise.

I'm going to have to disagree with you there. I live in Durham, North Carolina which is not a known steak area, or a haute cuisine area. Yet I can go to my local Whole Foods, get an excellent grass fed strip or ribeye, marinate it just the way I want, then cook it on the Weber. Not only that, but I can sit outside in the fading light with my Father and sip beers of our choice which don't cost us $9 a bottle. We don't have to dress up and we can take our time. I think that meat will taste as good or better than most other ones I can find.

I hear you - I love grilling outside also and it is a great opportunity for me to relax and get away from the commotion inside. I just haven't been able to duplicate the taste and texture of those great steaks I've had elsewhere, yet anyway. When it comes to hamburgers though I prefer mine to any I've ever had in a restaurant.
