I've always enjoyed Sam Seltzer's Steak House in Tampa, Florida. We love going there for the Prime Rib. About two years ago, we went to the location in Clearwater, Florida. The steak tasted old and like it had almost gone bad. We sent it back and they brought us more that tasted exactly the same. They told us we were the only ones that complained that evening.
Tonight, we went to the one in Tampa and got the same thing. It was awful but by the time we got it , we had already complained about two other things and thought we wouldn't be taken seriously so we just dunked it in the au jus and toughed it out. Now with torn up stomachs, we wish we had said something!! We are not normally complainers so this was definitely not just in our heads. We have also eaten there many, many times and had great experiences. Today (Saturday), we got there when they opened at 3:30. I wonder if that had anything to do with it. So anyway, has this ever happened to you???

You state that you are not normally complainers, but you had already complained about 2 things that day...I am sorry to inform you that you indeed ARE complainers. While I am sorry that you now have "torn up stomaches", if you truly thought there was something wrong with the meat, you should not have eaten it, and promptly asked for a refund. This can be done in a civil manner, without creating a "scene".
I hope that from now on you simply chose a different place to eat.
Good luck, hope you feel better.

I don't live in florida but Southwest Stakehouse is the same, and i can't say that this has ever happend to me. Wait about a month and go back, the taste could have just been a shipment of bad meat. If it dosent, take it up with the complaints department.

Sounds as though you should be shopping for another steak house

I live in the same area. I have never gone there, but my daughter has, and she has never complained about it.
