   Wife and I visited 555 for a special occasion after years of seeing an online consensus that this is THE place for steak in the LB area. We took an early seating, 4PM. The Open Table process was flawless, and we were given a choice of a couple of tables (rare, that).Parking is awful, so we gave in to the valet experience ($8 plus whatever you tip...not exorbitant). The place is great looking, with a bit of a classic vibe to it. Our server, Daniel, was professional and did a top-notch job of describing what they had on offer. I chose the grass-fed ribeye. Daniel took care to explain that this was a leaner, gamier cut than the typical; fine by me. Wife chose the Chilean sea bass. She chose the El Diablo cocktail, I opted for the Newcastle ale. She wanted to try the sautéed mushrooms to split. Wife was delighted with the bass and loved her cocktail. I was underwhelmed by the ribeye; while a lean steak sacrifices buttery richness, I expected more robust flavor from the grass feed. The steak, while expertly cooked to medium rare, was a little over crusted for me; the cappella style option was tasty, though. I was also sorry that 555 does not have a more extensive beer list. This is rather odd given that they have a decent handful of local breweries at hand and could build a unique offering (Newcastle and 805 were their solid, stolid best offerings). Their wine list is similarly uninspired. I'm glad we got around to eating here. But the simple fact is that, for ¼ grand outlay, I would not go back unless Wife really craves a redo on that sea bass.

   Lots of business dinners, but energetic bar also. Liked ahi tuna app a lot, bone in rib steak, and butternut squash side. Impeccable service. Large list of fairly priced wines and alcohol.

   Always great time at 555, excellent service and food is outstanding! Only complaint is the valet service coming and leaving is horrible, poor guys were running ragged. Had to wait to valet, traffic backed up around the corner onto Ocean blvd.. And when leaving after dinner, huge groups of diners milling about trying to retrieve their car. Very unorganized

   This is a traditional stake house with a major exception—everything is fairly priced. This Steaks, seafood and wines are all reasonably priced compared with similar places nationwide. My wife and I shared a crab cake appetizer, which was very good and then went for steaks—a fillet for her and strip for me. Both were perfectly done. We had ordered mushrooms, but we did not like the heavy balsamic flavor and our server was more than happy to take them off. We also had a very nice bottle of wine. A really nice evening!
