One of the most popular cuts of beef for a wonderful dining experience is a filet mignon that is cooked to perfection. This particular choice is always tender and buttery tasting and most people like it cooked to a rare to medium rare temperature to bring out the best flavor. Many restaurants specialize in signature meals that feature this fine cut of meat because it is so often preferred when diners want to enjoy a special occasion dinner. Another well-liked entree is New York strip steak and this also is a very tender piece of meat that benefits from not being overcooked but rather cooked just long enough to bring out the wonderful taste of the beef.
Restaurants that specialize in these particularly popular cuts of beef will often tempt a diner with all the trimmings that will highlight the star of the meal, the beef itself. Most people will opt to start the meal with a nice salad and that might include one of the following: Caesar salad, spinach salad or perhaps a house featured special green salad that includes a restaurant specialty dressing that is recommended.

Side dishes very often include a baked potato with sour cream or in recent years a baked sweet potato (or yam) with lots of butter has become a popular choice. A twice-baked potato that has been baked, the flesh scooped out of the shell and mixed with sour cream and cheese and returned to the shell and baked again is always delicious. Part of the appeal of the twice-baked potato is enjoying something that would take a lot of time and energy to prepare at home without having to do the work. And, of course, there is always garlic mashed potatoes that will lend a down home full-flavored texture to the meal.
When it comes to the vegetable dishes there are so many to choose from and they seem to all pair nicely with beef. One of the most long established restaurants in Ohio is famous for offering stewed tomatoes with their most expensive prime cuts of meat. Buttered green beans, sauteed mushrooms in butter wine sauce and even tender carrots are being offered regularly for dinner and are becoming well-liked. Fried onions or onion straws are another unusual but tasty accompaniment to a main dish consisting of red meat. Asparagus or creamed spinach is two distinctively delicious vegetable dishes that are great with a prime cut of beef.
A full-bodied red is usually the type of wine chosen to accompany a nice piece of beef for dinner. Any good chophouse will feature many wines that are on the menu and will be happy to make a recommendation that will complement the fine flavor of the beef you have chosen. A Merlot is known as being a softer wine that is always a pleasure to drink and this makes it a top pick for diners who are enjoying a fine red meat dinner. Cabernet Sauvignon follows closely and this wine is perfect for red meat that is simply prepared. And finally, some people prefer a Shiraz that is a more hearty and spicy wine that is also good with red meat.
