Why Our Pants Are Unbuttoned
-
3 buttons bursting open
The highest Pants praise: The food is so good that you will want to eat everything and stuff yourself to the point that the buttons on your pants are begging to be undone. You will be full and happy after this meal, heading home to stretchy- pantsed bliss.
-
2 buttons open
A solid place that you will enjoy enough to eat more than one is able to and still be comfortable in skinny jeans
-
button undone
The food is good enough, but you will be able to go dancing after and won’t be tempted to over-indulge on an aggressive level
-
keep em zipped!
Nothing good enough to tantalize the taste buds or tempt your tummy; not worth busting any buttons for this food

pants at a glance
- scene: Sexy red walls add a bordello type feel, with old fashioned masculine touches that keep it from being hokey; cozy and buzzy at the same time
- sip: A dirty martini at a steakhouse necessity; slightly over-priced wines available by glass and bottle
- savor: Steakhouse faves with decadent twists; garlic bread with gorgonzola fondue; truffle creamed spinach; 24 layer chocolate cake
- sit: This place is really good for just about any carnivore gathering- dates, large groups, or Guy's Night Out; seats at the bar go fast, but the environment is far from stuffy, so it could be both a special occasion place or just your go-to steak joint
- stilettos: Steak places are not usually high fashion (except Marble Lane) , so its more Ralph Lauren than Commes de Garcons; feel free to dress for your date... no hats on men are allowed in dining room

MEATing Place, romantical, sexy sexy, special occassion
The Strip House is charming in a way that is rare (ha ha) for a steakhouse- everything about it extremely well done (ha ha). The atmosphere is a not all boys clubby (Old Homestead), Old New York (The Palm) or trendy (STK, Marble Lane), but rather an intoxicating mix of bordello and masculinity. I can [...]
pants at a glance
- scene: Steakhouse-light; Not quite Barnyard on the Bowery, but there is rustic horsey theme; low lights and some manly touches
- sip: Old Fashioned; seasonal speciality cocktails and slightly over-priced wines by the glass
- savor: Chicken Liver Pot of Deliciousness; razor clam appetizer; pork chop; potato salad
- sit: This could be a good place to Bro-out, or take people on an expense account; groups of women could try to find lighter bites on the menu, but I think men would appreciate this place a little bit more
- stilettos: Gucci horse-bit pieces and Hermes leathers would fit right in the equine theme; bathroom is downstairs so make sure you can strut in your shoes

cozy, MEATing Place
Giddy-up! I don’t know why I was surprised by the pleasant experience that I had at Saxon and Parole, but it definitely exceeded my expectations and I am happy to spread the word. Besides the recent New York Times review, there was definitely less press/hype for Saxon and Parole than other recent restaurant openings, [...]
