Rare Society - Mill Creek

Steakhouse

Mill Creek

About the restaurant

Sink your teeth into Rare Society - a modern homage to the golden age of the American steakhouse. Chef and owner Brad Wise reimagines vintage upscale dining with a bold, contemporary edge: a wood-fired grill fueled by red oak, an in-house dry-aging program, sustainably sourced seafood, and a progressive cocktail menu that nods to the classics while pushing boundaries. The space hums with energy - smoke curling from the grill, the scent of fire and flavor wafting through the air. It’s easy to picture a Rat Pack-era dinner party in full swing: elegant, indulgent, just a little unruly. Rare Society doesn’t just pay tribute to steakhouse tradition - it revives it, reinvents it, and serves it with just a little bit of swagger.

We had an excellent experience at Rare Society. I can't remember having so many people servicing our table. We really enjoyed the Associate board and was customized to fit our tastes. Waitress was impressive to say the least. We had a wonderful time and will definitely return.

Benvenuto amici!
Welcome friends!

At Tula Bene, expect an experience that is approachable, fun and upbeat, yet focused. When you dine with us, you will experience seasonal dishes that are prepared to order with fresh produce, meats and seafood. Many of our ingredients like ricotta, yogurt, and sausage, even our limoncello, are made in-house.

Savor a juicy steak grilled over cherry wood, a mouth-watering lobster ravioli, or a 1/2 chicken, roasted to order in the woodstone oven. To compliment your meal, add an Italian wine such as a robust Sangiovese from our award-winning, European focused wine list of over 450 different wines, one of our 47 wines available by the glass, or a handcrafted cocktail like the Bella Rossa featuring our home-made limoncello. Top off your meal with a delicious dessert, like the Caramelized white chocolate budino paired with our custom espresso.
