World Famous St. Elmo Shrimp Cocktail

St. Elmo Steak House has been a downtown landmark since opening in 1902. I usually have no problem finishing what is put in front of me but the Bone-In Cowboy Ribeye did me in. I also need to mention the appetizer they are famous for, it is a 15.95 shrimp cocktail with their own house-made horseradish cocktail sauce. Word of warning, it is out of this world hot. Of course, like an idiot, my first bite I had the shrimp loaded up and it took all of 4 sec for the fires of hell to suck the oxygen right out of me. Thru the tears I could not stop eating it, its addictive. I am certain reservations are needed, the bar and restaurant were packed to the corners all night. Very warm and comfortable, old school steak house.
