Steak 48 has everything you’d expect from an upscale Broad Street chophouse: chandeliers and walls of wine, abundant menu items listed at “market price", and silver foxes in glass-walled private dining nooks telling their girlfriends that they once did Madonna’s taxes. But the Center City steakhouse also has thoughtful touches, like staff members who are happy to take a picture of your big group dinner, and remember your old fashioned order from the last time you dined. We like gold fixtures and custom-stamped ice cubes as much as the next person, but none of these details matter if they can’t cook a steak. Turns out, they cook them perfectly, and the same goes for the crispy shrimp, pan-seared scallops, corn crème brûlée, and parmesan asparagus. The food is all high quality and well executed, though none of it will blow your mind (the shrimp cocktail at $12 a piece did rattle us a bit). Avoid the raw items, which are just okay, and expensive even amongst the steakhouse set. Stick to the cocktails, steaks, and any side you set your sights on, and you’ll have a dinner that feels worth it—even when the bill ends with a number that resembles a pin code.
