On a clear day or moonlit night, Grill 79 possesses the one-two punch of breathtaking view and superb food. Even when the weather isn’t cooperating (as it is wont to do here), the premium cuts of steak and seafood are worth a visit.
More flavorful and higher-yielding than traditional filets and strips, secondary cuts such as the rib cap and skirt and flank steaks shine on the expanded menu. No longer relegated to overcooked fajitas and gimmicky sizzling plates, skirt steak is having a moment in the sun. An ideal combination of assertive texture with distinctive minerality, it’s made for those who do not want to forget they are eating the flesh of a beast.
On the conventional side of things, the Ranger Valley Wagyu porterhouse is a thing of beauty. The 650-gram steak easily feeds two or three, and both the filet and loin sides of the chop yield meltingly tender, juicy, yet unabashedly beefy bites.
