Prime 16 oz. Bone-in Filet at Joe’s Seafood, Prime Steak & Stone Crab

Bone-in filetDuring the development of the Joe’s Seafood steak program more than 25 years ago, the chef team wanted to create something that was really unique and special to showcase along with the famous Stone Crab. Steakhouses had already been offering bone-in ribeye, but very few offered bone-in filet. Filets tend to be lean, and by keeping the bone next to the filet not only add flavor but a unique beautiful cut. Joe’s signature cut, the Prime 16 oz. Bone-in Filet, is brushed with melted butter and seasoned with salt and pepper. A special addition to all of the Joe’s Seafood steaks is their special steak seasoning, sprinkled to taste. This dish is available at Joe’s Seafood in Chicago, Las Vegas and D.C. Make a reservation at the Joe’s Seafood location nearest you
