RED South Beach
When this high-styled, clubby/contemporary meatery from Cleveland opened 2 blocks away from Prime One Twelve in 2008, many laughed, assuming it would be gone soon. But it held its own in the glitzy shadow of its neighbor thanks to spectacularly seasoned steaks that don’t taste like those found anywhere else. Purists may sneer, but those looking for mad flavor revel in RED’s signature rubs. And sometimes they put them on sale: on Tuesdays, you can get a 36-ounce Tomahawk steak for $99, a bargain considering the normal price is usually twice that. An all-you-can-eat Sunday champagne brunch is a great way to spend a lazy, luxurious Sunday. By the way: RED is no longer two blocks from its rival, but in a bigger, posher, indoor/outdoor space not far from the original, so to the naysayers who said it wouldn’t last—well, sort of, but that’s only because it outgrew its old spot.
