How do you ask for your steak to be cooked when you go to a restaurant?

I can probably guess everybody here does not know the correct criteria for "well done" "medium-rare" etc...

However, I do and I like any meat that I am going to eat, well done.

Medium to Medium Well at a Restaurant. If my wife or dad cook them, Medium-Rare because they know exactly how I like them.

I guess I should specify how you ask for it at a restaurant.

Medium and perferabley charcoal grilled.

I love filet mignon and prime rib medium rare if I am in a reputable restaurant, if I am in some hole in the wall place, I usually ask for medium.

Medium-rare. :D

Well done.

medium rare, in case they under do it. otherwise, a steak that's red in the middle doesn't bother me. yet, steak tartare is way under for me.

I like mine on the grill and medium rare.

Rare, I like the texture, and too much cooking can ruin a perfect steak IMO.

Rare, or as my uncle once put it, "bleeding". More tender, flavorful, and juicy that way, and more of the flavoring is kept. Grilled preferred over broiled.

Medium to well-done, unless it's a proper steak place, where you practically have to get them to burn it to make sure you don't get salmonella (and so that any tampons stand out).

usually rare, or medium rare if I dont trust the restaurant (I dont wanna worry aboutt eating raw steak :P)

Medium rare for me.

Medium-Rare is how I like my steaks.

medium rare - medium.

usually ill get medium-rare. to those who get well done how can you possibly like that? you lose all the flavor and its toguh and just not very good. :(

mediu well. yum

Medium well

Medium or medium well.

Medium-rare FTW!!!!!

I used to like Well, but now I'm more of a fan of medium. I like a bit of the pinkness to remind me I'm eating meat.

Medium rare

Medium rare, still bleeding but not too much. I feel like anything over medium is just a waste of a steak. I think you might as well have a burger at that point.

Medium

Well Done.:)

Well done

I like medium

Medium :) Never tried a rare steak, I want to but whenever I see blood on my food I wanna spew :|

I've never had steak, let alone at a restaurant :otofu-lion91

If you're going to try one medium rare, I recommend a prime rib, the color may throw you off because prime rib is a little pinker than other cuts even when cooked, but the flavor and tenderness will be undeniably good, I'd also recommend a filet mignon.

I don't eat steak.

But I like my burgers medium-well. My mom hates that though.
