    The Red Lion Pub on S. Shepherd has a Thursday steak night. It's a filet. Might be over $15 (I think it's $18), but it's mighty tasty!

    I haven't been yet but I've heard PJ's is the best steak night in the city.

    Monday night steak nights at Angelo's in downtown. That way I can stagger home. Or back to work. $13 I think. Maybe $12.

    Nothing beats steak night. Another reason steak is Texas' signature food.

    I've tried Griffs, Cedar Creek, Under the Volcano, PJs and Woodrow's midtown. PJs was the best by absolute miles. Totally succulent and huge.
