The Take
Order the ribeye or prime rib, medium rare, plain butter or salt at Carne Chophouse. Slop Score 29.
This historic Ybor City spot since around 2012 delivers straightforward chophouse steaks without modern sourcing claims or regenerative buzz. Tourist-area defaults risk seed oil in sides, and some listings already flag it closed.
The Verdict
Carne Chophouse signals old-school steakhouse nostalgia for meat-first locals but lands low due to sourcing gaps and uncertain hours. Based order is ribeye or prime rib, medium rare, plain butter or salt. Avoid fried apps, house dressings, or anything with vegetable oil fine print. Ask for extra butter or tallow on the side.
Skip it unless you confirm it's open and stick strictly to the steak. Slop Score 29.
