St. Anselm doesn't call itself a steakhouse, and it doesn't much look like one either. A chalkboard as you enter assures all guests of the "natural," hormone-and-antibiotic-free" pedigree of its menu. The dining room is small, tables dwarfed by a long bar with metal stools, and green-slatted shutters closing out the onlookers on Metropolitan Avenue. What's coming out of the kitchen, however, will convince you that not only is St. Anselm a meat haven, it's one of the best ones in town. An ideal meal looks something like this: grilled halloumi with pea greens and string beans roasted shishito peppers and the butcher's steak with compound garlic butter. The best part? It's affordable. That steak we mentioned? Yeah, that's under 20 bucks.

- Steakhouses: "Come here when you want to impress someone special, but can't afford to break the bank. It's a first-come, first-served, neighborhood restaurant that takes no reservations."
- Best for Steakhouses Because: It's a laid back eatery that serves up a hipster-worthy, grass-fed piece of meat.
