Always a fantastic experience at Deans in Charlotte. I love bringing new people in to experience Deans and last night presented that opportunity once again. I brought 2 new people that had never dined with Deans and they both said, “hands down the best steak they had ever eaten”! Which was the bone in filet Deans style
