TASTE OF THE TREASURE COAST
67
evening cozied up to the bar, sipping a strawberry bourbon
smash — fresh strawberries, lemon juice, mint, premium
bourbon topped with a ginger beer. Or the popular signature
drink, “The Braford,” an old-fashioned classic with craft
smoked chili bitters.
Judging by the online accolades, customers are delighted
to discover a superior-quality steakhouse outside of the
standard-bearers like New York, Chicago and Texas. Rave
reviews touting the quality and consistency are surely a tip of
the toque every chef wants to receive.
“All the reviews have been amazing, and we are happy
with the response from the community,” says Gutierrez.
“People are driving from Martin and Palm Beach counties to
eat steak. It’s definitely worth the drive.” He says the venue
is really one restaurant with two dining concepts to satisfy
every craving, and a gourmet market is now in the works
where customers can purchase the restaurant’s signature
meats, rubs, sauces and wines.
With this latest venture, Gutierrez has succeeded in raising
the tempo of the downtown food scene and has elevated Fort
Pierce to that of a go-to destination. “The Pierce Harbor district
has the theater, bars, restaurants, the waterfront, marinas
and all the professional offices east of U.S.1,” Gutierrez notes.
“We have a vision for the whole downtown.”
