Not talking about anything fancy or something special order, just regular steaks. When you want to cook a ribeye/filet/etc, where do you head? I've tried a lot of places, but curious of other opinions and experiences.

Where have you found has the best steaks when you are cooking?

Rouses and Roberts were my stores for basic steaks.

I think the price is higher at WF and I don't remember the quality being any better than Rouses or Dorignacs.

If I'm doing a really nice steak:

Cleaver & Co.
Rare Cuts
Gourmet Butcher Block

For a Tuesday night steak, I've found Fresh Market to be much better than Rouse's or Whole Foods.

I don't know about that. WF has some damn nice prime steaks if you want to pay up for them.

I find Rouses steak selection to be a little bit lacking.

Yea I'm not doubting y'all. Like I said, I had some drink. And it was late when I bought them and the selection wasn't that great.

Forgot to add that Restaurant Depot has prime grade beef if you want that sort of thing.
