Review of 801 Chophouse at the Paxton

1st, let me put a disclaimer on here... I'm a tried and true filet mignon lover and my friend that shared the dry aged Morgan Ranch Wagyu Tomahawk is a huge ribeye eater. The gentlemen who told us about the MR wagyu tomahawk made it sound like it was the best steak here so we decided to get wild and give it a try ($150 gamble). We did ask for the bone marrow butter as a prep and we requested med rare. The short answer is that I hated it, it was over salty and I didn't eat a whole piece of it because I disliked it so much. My friend said it was "ok." Everything else we were served was top notch. I'm sure if I would've ordered the filet then it would've been amazing. Expensive lesson learned. I attached my receipt so others can see what we paid for 3 people, 1 man and 2 smaller women. For anyone wondering, no, I did not speak to the staff about the steak as I frequent nice steakhouses and this is the only time I've ever had this issue so I just marked it as a loss but wrote this to hopefully help any others interested. If I lived here, I'd go back and get the filet
