High Point Restaurant Guide

The bayou comes to North Carolina at Steak Street in High Port. Po' Boys, Voodoo Grilled Shrimp, and, of course, beef tantalize your taste buds with a Cajun flair. Steak Street is locally famous for its bourbon marinade and its nine cuts of prime/choice steak with custom fixings. Seafood and fish are also prominent on the menu, for patrons looking for lighter fare with options such as seafood jambalaya and shrimp and grits. Those with a sweet tooth can end their meal with a number of desserts, like bourbon bread pudding or a deep-fried tortilla filled with cheesecake and topped with caramel and chocolate sauces.

The dining area is located upstairs with a décor that makes patrons feel like they are dining al fresco. The outdoor theme intermixes and intertwines different geographical regions, for a comprehensive outdoor feel. Depending on where you are seated, you will feel like you are sitting outside in the French Quarter of New Orleans or along Old South Streets in Charleston, North Carolina. A subtle Mardi Gras flair floats throughout the restaurant, with a festive atmosphere.

Cooperstown Lounge, located within Steak Street, is filled to the brim with unique and authentic baseball memorabilia. Bar patrons can get in on the food action and satisfy their taste buds with a slider from the Burger Bar menu. Cooperstown Lounge is also a great stopping point for wine lovers. The extensive and award-winning wine list includes a rich offering of red, white, and sparkling wines by the glass, full bottle, and half bottle. If you can’t make up your mind, then a variety of wine flights are available.

New to Steak Street is the Bistro section of its Cooperstown lounge. This is a retractable area of the bar which is opened up on warm nights and can be closed quickly if inclement weather arrives. The Bistro has its own light fare menu, offered daily during happy hour time. The full Steak Street menu is also offered at all times in both the Bistro and Cooperstown lounge.

In addition to the Bistro, during summer months patrons can dine on the back patio. The patio is surrounded by lush vines, making for a quaint and quiet feel for diners. Special, soft lightning enhances the patio’s lush feel.

Steak Street offers live music on Friday and Saturday evenings. Soft and soulful music beats in the background as patrons dine. This "upscale casual" restaurant is appropriate for business lunches by day and romantic dinners by night. Give it a try and see if the Mardi Gras flair draws you in.
