No one is asking about the prices: but both of those --especially Peter Lugar are on expensive side. Cabana Las Lilas in BA has the reputation that it is for tourist.
Bern's is a special experience and every steak lover should try it. Also wine lovers--their wine list is amazing !

Been to Peter Lugar, and Cabana Las Lilas in Buenos Aires, both were very very good.
The best is Bern's in Tampa.. they cut to order, so you can ask for thickness, and even 'area'.. i.e. Rib eye with the cap attached, 2 inch thick..
grilled to perfection and their wine list is legendary.

I was really disappointed by Cabana las Lilas, although I wasn't that impressed by Argentinian steaks in general. The cuts were a bit tough for me.

If one is in southern Tuscany, I Due Cippi da Michele in Saturnia. The owner tales great pride in his bistecca florentina. Certified organic Chianina beef that he proudly displays at the entrance, cuts and cooks himself.
Not cheap at EUR 75 / Kg (Oct 2012) but lots of locals go there to eat it (and order kilos of the stuff).

My favorite is to dine in the bar at the Chicago Chop House.
The steak sandwich at Capital Grill is sublime. Ribeye, onions and havarti. crispy bread to soak up the juices.

I had a surprisingly enjoyable 14 oz filet at Charley's in Celebration FL (next to Disney) this week. Not in the class of Berns by any stretch, but reasonable quality for the price.
My co-workers each had the 22 oz bone-in strip, and both also thoroughly enjoyed them.
I'm not a big fan of places with only steaks the size of your head, and one lowly filet option. I much prefer to have some steaks in the 12-16 ounce range.

Sparks and Lugers. I think its the wood they cook their steaks on.
