good steak in Vancouver?

I'm looking for a good place for a Father's Day meal this year. My dad usually defaults to the one steak dish (or maybe lamb) on the menu when we eat out, so I figured for his meal maybe it'd be nice to find a good place that has more than 1 option. Any good steak places to recommend, or perhaps non-steakhouse restaurants that have really good steak on offer?

Thanks!

    Fuel's steak is pretty ridiculous. Lots of other stuff on the menu as well.

      I love Fuel but we've been several times before... plus I'm saving myself for Nose-to-Tail :)

      I think we're going to try the DB special... but I definitely want to hit some of the steakhouses in Vancouver sometime. I actually have never been to any.

        What does Chicago-style mean?

          That is where the steak is first charred on the outside then cooked to the desired doneness on the inside.

        Hy's for that old-school steakhouse vibe.

            replying to my own to share that DB bistro has an amazing-sounding Father's day prix fixe going on:

            "Mouth Watering Cote de Boeuf for 2, bone marrow crust & pomme croquettes. Prix-fixe w. salad & dessert ($45)."
