Murray's Restaurant & Cocktail   

Succeeding for more than 50 years in the restaurant business usually means two things: Your food is great, and you've found a way to inveigle the interest of the generations that followed your first years of popularity. Yes, the Silver and Golden Butter Knife Steaks are still a highlight at Murray's, and no, the restaurant hasn't budged from its original location, thankfully. If you're old enough to remember Charlie's Cafe and the Blue Horse, then you know that Murray's has also won its share of dining awards. Behind the big Murray's sign is dining elegance and quality, and the menu here is a primer on red meat. Although a couple of fish and chicken entrees are available, you can get those elsewhere. Treat yourself to an unhurried lunch, or a Friday afternoon tea and scones break. If you're new to the Cities or bankrolling a classy date, consider reservations at this landmark and imagine what a $45 porterhouse looks like.
