Guide to Steak During Lake County Flavor Festival 2026
By: Stephanie Wylie 02/09/2026
The stakes are unmistakably high in the land of lakes. Feed your belly with unmiSTEAKable cuts during the Lake County Flavor Festival through the end of February.
Longtime actor Robert Duvall, known for such flicks as the "Godfather" series, "Apocalypse Now" and "The Apostle," says it correctly: “I take a vitamin every day; it’s called steak.”
No matter what your fancy is — T-bone, rib-eye, filet mignon, sirloin or some other mouthwatering cut — Lake County eateries will fulfill your beefy needs.
Let’s FLANK to a Lake County Flavor Festival eatery this week and beyond, rest our TENDERLOINS in one of these fine steakhouses and eat like we’re CLUB members. Remember to FLAT IRON your khakis and SKIRTS before entering. (Are any of these steak puns working for you?).
