If anyone knows what America wants in a steakhouse, it's Paul Fleming. Before launching his own dining concept, he developed and operated a little chain called Ruth's Chris. Now, he and co-founder Bill Allen are introducing the country to a different kind of steakhouse -- one that's expansive, contemporary and warm instead of dark, masculine and clubby. A hundred wines are available by the glass, almost another hundred by the bottle. It adds a whole new dimension to the dining experience. Food-wise, Fleming's can hold its own with any of the old boys' clubs. Tasty appetizers and fresh, inventive salads make way for thick cuts of prime beef, served a tad rarer than at most places, on a piping-hot plate. Everything's a la carte, but a single side dish can easily serve two.

Restaurants, whether in Austin or Boston, feature the same golden-toned lighting, roomy leather booths and burnished wood paneling. The wine-by-the-glass list is easy to read and understand, and the ambience is comfortable and lively -- just as the founders intended it to be.

  • ALWAYS EXCELLENT!!!!

    Review rating : 5out of 5   ENJOYitL - 07/01/2008

    The food and service, all the way to the parking valet are excellent! Quite a variety of side dishes and each is plenty enough for two. We dine out a lot and the service here is the best, the bartenders, waiters/waitresses all make you feel very comfortable, not rushed like many places and will explain whatever you want on the menu. A must for great steaks!

    Pretentious crowd in Orange County. The steaks are good but Gibson's in Chicago are much better.

    I completely disagree with posters who do not like Fleming's. This was the best steak I have ever eaten, and believe me, growing up in the midwest, I KNOW what a good steak should taste like! Fleming's is nothing short of fabulous!! The side dishes, especially their potatoes, are wonderful! Service was top rate. This restaurant should be rated 10 stars...double the 5 given! :-)

    Great steaks!!!! Mine was so tender, I was able to cut it with a butter knife. The service was good. The atmosphere was just right for the type of dining experience I was looking for. I just had lunch over at P.F. Chang's; Paul's other restaurant. The food there didn't quite compare to Flemming's Steakhouse...
