Preacher's Pick here! I can't believe that we have been back in the Lynchburg area for over almost three years and tonight, for the first time, we had steaks at Bulls Steakhouse on Graves MIll Road. To say I was impressed would be an understatement! And did you know there was an early ownership connection between the Crown Sterling and Bulls?
Ok, Let's start with the service. They asked for our drink order and brought them promptly just as we were being seated. Then the server made sure our drinks were refilled. And as we finished our meals, one of the owners came by to check on us. That's a great touch! Let's get to the steaks!
My wife and I had the 10 oz. Ribeye, which was closer to 12 ounces. I like mine medium rare and it was cooked perfectly! The steak was tender, juicy and had a great grilled taste. My wife likes hers medium well and many places mess that up by overcooking it, but hers was just right tonight. The price for the 10 oz. Ribeye was $33.00, which is less than any other good quality local steakhouse. Please note that their website shows a price of $31.00, so it needs to be updated, like just about everyone else's website these days!
One of our friends got the 8 oz. Filet Mignon and she said that hers was great. Our other friend got a 12 oz. Prime Rib. (He ordered 2 extra ounces as the menu shows a 10 oz. The base price is $33.00, and there is an additional charge of $1.50 an ounce for anything over 10 oz.
As you can see from the pic, his prime rib looked superb! Like all the other steaks, it was cooked to perfection. They also pay attention to a little detail that many steakhouses misss. Bulls had both raw prepared horseradish and horseradish sauce. I like to use both on my steak.
I'd also like to make a comment about the salad, baked potato, and rolls.
The side salad includes shredded lettuce, tomato, cukes, grated cheese, almonds, and croutons. The shredded lettuce really makes this salad! I ordered ranch dressing with mine and they don't skimp on the dressing either. they serve it on the side.
My potato was cooked perfectly. It was piping hot, flaky, and the butter just slid into the potato as it quickly melted. And of course, I must have my sour cream to go along with it.
Now let's get to the bread. You don't see bread like this anymore at restaurants. They serve a hot crusty roll, which is very soft inside, which goes nicely with the steak and salad. Now, don't get me wrong, I still love the homemade yeast rolls at New London Steakhouse, but these are a close second.
Let me highly recommend Bulls Steakhouse for your next "Steak out" meal. Tell them that "Preacher's Pick" sent ya'! Blessings! (See notes below beneath pics.)
