Check out this
restaurant at the W, which is participating in Dine Out
for Life
I
was so excited to check out Steak 954 at the W, not only
because it was in the chic new W Fort Lauderdale, but
because it was one of Stephen Starr’s restaurants. Starr
is especially well-known in Philadelphia, New York and
Atlantic City where he has some of the most fabulous
restaurants you’ve ever seen. Buddakan, Morimoto, The
Continental, Pod, El Vez – almost everything Starr
touches turns to gold, so I was especially eager to see
how Steak 954 would measure up.
I
went during for a Monday lunch and was excited to see
that the place was populated with leisurely ladies
lunching and scattered with various couples. Mark and I
were seating by the window so we could gaze out at the
outside seating area and beyond that, the beach.
We were impressed with the sleek design of Steak 954.
The chocolate colored hard wood floors, the lime green
seats, the gigantic jellyfish tank all give the
restaurant a sophisticated air.
We started off with a bottle of Fiji
Water, iced tea and Diet Coke . I was impressed that the
iced tea came with the option of simple syrup in
addition to a variety of well-known sweeteners. We
then chose the crabcake appetizer which was a
large fresh crab cake served over a tartar sauce, along
some greens. The crab cake was non-greasy and pure lump
crabmeat.
For
my meal, I had a turkey club, which featured applewood
bacon, avocado and bibb lettuce with the turkey on whole
grain bread. I almost went with the Steak 954 Burger,
but I cannot resist anything with avocado and bacon in
it. The sandwich was the perfect lunch and the
combinations of flavors classic and well done, but the
portion is quite large, so you will definitely take home
leftovers. Our waiter noted that it is rare that someone
finishes that sandwich and I believe it. The sandwich
came with a side salad with an addictive dressing.
Mark ordered the 6-ounce filet with
truffle fries. He requested his filet cooked medium rare
and it arrived extremely tender and juicy. The side of
truffle fries were perfectly salty and some of the best
fries I’ve ever had.
We
decided to share a dessert because we couldn’t resist
the idea of crème brulee with blueberries. The decadent
dessert came with a side of tiny homemade warm donut
holes rolled in powdered sugar. It was definitely a
delicious treat and worth every calorie. Mark
ended his meal with a Double Espresso, which he was very
pleased with.
