Epicure

Occupying the anchor spot vacated by oZ Chophouse, Venegas Prime Filet brings a steakhouse menu back to Maple Lawn. The layout of the space— large main dining room and adjoining circular barroom— remains the same, but the decor has been given an overhaul. Now decked out in earthy shades of orange and gold, the interiors are glamorous and swank, with a Mediterranean influence. The list of cuts is classic steakhouse fare— filet, Porterhouse, New York strip, rib-eye, hanger, Delmonico— and the twist is a list of sauces (au poivre, béarnaise, hollandaise, cabernet) and butters (gorgonzola, herb and garlic, rosemary-sea salt), as well as habanero salsa and horseradish cream, to complement your steak. Interesting sides include Brussels sprouts with bacon, mushroom risotto and pickled beet slaw, as well as standbys like broccoli au gratin and mac’n’cheese. Open nightly for dinner. 8191 Maple Lawn Blvd., 301-490-2290
