Went out tonight for dinner at a steak place (not an expensive place but one that usually has had decent steaks). Usually, I have a filet but sometimes I get a ribeye. When I get one, I carve out the fat.

Tonight, the steak had a bizarre texture, smooshy would be the word that comes to mind. None of the normal fat. I didn't have to carve anything out. The steak was really tender but spongy. It didn't have the ordinary ribeye texture.

Seriously, I hoping it wasn't horse meat. Is there some weird process now for tenderizing beef?

Sounds like you had a cut from this:

(The cheek meat is highly prized btw)

Which restaurant?

For future reference, including pictures and the name of the establishment go a long way towards helping us comprehend and, possibly, diagnose the problem.
