I have never eaten at Ruth Chris, but from the people I know that I have I would not put it in the same sentence as Boi Na Braza. Completely different type of restaurant. I also would not say Morton’s is anything like it either.

We did not enjoy Boi N Braza at all. For the price I would prefer a well cooked steak. I felt like I got one good piece of meat the whole time we were there.

Sorry Lesley, but Morton’s does not belong on that list. Have you ever eaten there? We eat at the bar regularly and either share a larger main course or we each have a smaller main course like the petite filet. We also enjoy their oysters, lobster salad and crabmeat cocktail, all of which are beyond reproach. Morton’s steak au poivre is the best that I’ve ever had, period. Plus they have the best bar staff in the City, pour HUGE glasses of wine and can really make an artisanal cocktail too boot. Great view of Fountain Square as well.

A downtown friend of mine was totally pissed his wife filled up on salad and only ate one small piece of meat.
But he had me laughing talking about how he ate so much he had to crawl home, he had to eat her share to get his moneys worth.

I totally agree with you Julie, for the price of Boi Na Braza I could go to the Precinct which is a way better meal in my opinion. Also, I think its weird to pay that much for your food and have to get up and get it yourself. If I’m paying that kind of money I want to be waited on.

Huge portions of meat are not my cup of tea, I feel so stuffed and guilty after. The salad bar though was fantastic when we went which was a while ago. I assume it still is, Julie do you know what the price for just the salad bar is?

Nope, not for me. These places like Boi, Morton’s, Ruths Chris, they are all so expensive and serve mediocre food. Imagine the meal you would eat at a locally owned steak house for the same money. I pass by Boi a lot, but never once think of going in….all that meat just kind of turns my stomach. I’m sure it does well w/ businessmen.

Amor de Brazil was the same concept, but different owners. It got torn down a month or so ago and a Chick-Fil-A is being built in its place.

I think Boi is a good place for a b-day dinner or something like that with a group. It’s a place you go for the experience/atmosphere rather than the food. The food is good but not great (I’ve only been to the Mason location).

The only circumstance I can think of to take a date there is if you want to break up with a vegetarian.
