A cut above the rest, Johnny’s Italian Steakhouse (4751 Owen Ayres Court, Eau Claire) takes its third consecutive crown for Best Steak — all their premium steaks are hand-selected and aged 28 days. The chefs at Houligans Steak & Seafood Pub (415 S. Barstow St., Eau Claire) hand cut beef that is aged at least 21 days and purchased from USDA Choice beef programs. Finally, Texas Roadhouse (5019 Keystone Crossing, Eau Claire) rounds out the pack with its legendary, aged, hand-cut steaks seared and grilled to perfection. — Jen Ekblad
