Best Date Night Steakhouse in Hamilton Heights
Master Critic Review
Winnie Said
7.9
Winnie Said is a cozy, lively beer and cocktail bar where steak frites and grits topped with braised short rib or steak anchor a short but focused comfort menu. It works well for casual dates built around drinks first and a shared steak plate rather than a formal white-tablecloth experience.

Steak Frites with shoestring fries, chimichurri and béchamel, Pick 'Em Grits with steak, French Onion Soup
