Dinner place for steak lovers and a vegetarian

I'm looking for a place to go out to dinner this Saturday that has a few good steak and at least a 1-2 good vegetarian options. I would like to keep the price range around $20/main entree, although it's fine if some of the steaks are closer to $25-30. I'm looking for somewhere in Cambridge or Boston, not really picky. There are four of us going, but my boyfriend and I are on a low carb diet (hence the steak request) and my friend's wife is a vegetarian so we're hoping to avoid a straight up steak house unless folks know they also have good vegetarian options.

    The best steak I had recently was the tournedos of beef at Catalyst (It's $29, so a little above your mark). They do wonderful work with pastas there, so I'm sure your vegetarians could find something they like.

      Ten Tables in JP or Harvard Square might fit the bill. There's usually an under-$30 steak on their menu, and they treat vegetarians very well.

        In addition to the recs for Oleana and TT, really any gastro-y place in Cambridge and Somerville is going to have a steak and veg entree. I think there might be a local ordinance requiring it...

        Garden at the Cellar
        Rendezvous
        T.W. Food
        Temple Bar
        West Side Lounge
        Chez Henri
        Central Kitchen

        just to name a few...

        I have had some great steak dishes at Oleana and I know they treat veggies well there too.

          Prezza is open again, might work for you.

            Steak and veal are both over $40 at Prezza.
