Steak is useful for exercising incisors, muffling trumpets, and reducing swelling from black eyes caused by trying to eat steak with one's eye. Put steak to its prototypical use with today's Groupon to Brookshire Restaurant, located inside The Royal Park Hotel in Rochester. Choose between the following options:

• For $44, you get a dinner for two (a $92 total value). The dinner includes the following:

  • One appetizer (up to an $18 value)
  • Two entrees (up to a $37 value each)

For $89, you get a dinner for four (a $198 total value). The dinner includes the following:

• One appetizer (up to an $18 value)
• Four entrees (up to a $37 value each)
One bottle of house wine (a $32 value)

This Groupon is not valid for the Steak Diane, one dozen oysters, one dozen shrimp, or the Seafood Tower, and cannot be used on Sweetest Day or Thanksgiving Day.

Executive chef Colin Brown updates classic American steak house fare with inventive flavors and recipes, creating an upscale menu of hearty appetizers, seafood, and steaks. Dining duos and quartets can quell immediate hunger pangs with crispy pork lollipops coated in a sweet and spicy thai glaze or Cajun jumbo lump crab hush puppies, an amalgamation of American regional cuisine fused by Old Bay aioli and pure, sweet freedom. The 6-ounce Maytag filet mignon dons a jacket of blue cheese and wild Michigan mushrooms, and pan-seared chicken unites with sundried tomatoes, goat cheese, and spinach. Ham-wrapped halibut with crispy leeks and tarragon sabayon combine land and sea flavors more elegantly than a block of cheese carved into the shape of a battleship.

Dining foursomes split a bottle of house wine that, like Mother Nature's outfits, is available in four varietals. Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays see live music permeate the eatery, located among The Royal Park Hotel's elegant, Old World–style boutique setting.
