Chi Spacca

What people say, in short
Chi Spacca stands out for a sharing-style steak rather than a conventional individual order. Commenters describe the bistecca fiorentina as a large dry-aged, bone-in porterhouse; two say it is challenging for two diners, while others suggest sharing with a larger group. The caveats are the expense and the cut: a commenter disputes recommendations of it for ribeye specifically. Support for its steak is strong, but that should not be mistaken for evidence of every cut or a current menu guarantee.
