Allen Brothers Steaks:

Westholme Wague

Profile: Luxurious and exquisite — the gold standard of marbling and tenderness

Texture: Ultra-tender and buttery, often described as “melting on the tongue"

Flavor: Exceptionally rich, sweet, and savory with a pronounced umami character from the fine marbling

Experience: Wagyu is pure indulgence — a sensory, almost silky experience that’s as much about texture as flavor

Ideal For: Tasting menus showcasing luxury and finesse

Bavette Steak



Profile: Rustic, flavorful, and full of character — the “butcher’s cut.”

Texture: Looser grain, tender yet pleasantly chewy

Flavor: Bold, meaty, and slightly sweet with deep umami notes; less fat than Ribeye but more beef intensity

Experience: Bavette is about personality and depth — a great choice for those who love robust, savory flavor over tenderness

Ideal For: Diners who appreciate flavor complexity and a little chew

Ribeye

Profile: The steakhouse classic — rich, buttery, and luxuriously marbled

Texture: Tender and juicy, with a soft, melt-in-your-mouth bite thanks marbling

Flavor: Deep, beefy, and indulgent — the quintessential “steak flavor:

Experience: Ribeye is all about comfort: every bite is rich, smooth, and satisfying

Ideal For: Guests who love traditional, luxurious steakhouse flavor
