STEAKBAR at FRAMEbar: A Classic Steakhouse by Chef Michael Barrera
A stylish take on the iconic steakhouse, STEAKbar at FRAMEbar blends prime cuts with dashing fun, marrying the rapture of eating in a bar with the playfulness of swanky drinking in a top-tier restaurant.
By day, Frame’s passionate culinary director Chef Michael Barrera impressively helms our world of rotating chefs while cultivating a personal fanbase who line up for his own monthly experiences.
But for 20 special days in December, he’s all STEAKbar, with one focus: delivering perfectly cooked, well-marbled prime cuts of beef (filet mignon, 28-day dry-aged New York strip, ribeye) with plenty of extra sauce — chimichurri, horseradish, roasted garlic-herb butter, and bordelaise — bringing the most opulence FRAMEbar has seen to date.
Add in classic starters, sides, and desserts to share for the table: pommes purée with truffle butter, steak tartare, house-made chips and dip (caviar optional!), wedge salads, coconut banana cream “pie” … and we’ve got our new cult favorite 5x a week vibey spot to call home.
Rethinking everything you ever knew about the stuffy steakhouse experience, including a custom-designed beef tallow STEAKbar at FRAMEbar candle that is served as part of your dinner, melting and dripping over house bread, under Michael’s genius eye.
And while turning FRAMEbar into a wine bar was never the intention, Plan on a full wine list featuring reserve wines by the glass poured via Coravin. Plus: sultry, unpretentious yet refined variations on classic cocktails (think: house martinis) by Frame’s Mixtress Jaz’min Weaver and all the intriguing details enfolded in our amber glow.
No pre-purchased tickets needed here. STEAKbar is an a-la-carte menu experience. Just walk in or make a reservation.
Think FRAMEbar for after-work tartare and cocktails, or pop in for a full-blown convivial dinner of small plates and wine with a group of friends.
