Centered around the classic pairing of [steak and mushrooms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/three-cheese-steak-dip), both of the new dishes aim to give guests a limited-time-only steakhouse experience. The first of the new dishes is the Steakhouse Pizza, which starts with an [olive oil and garlic base](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/signature-garlic-combo-pizza), topped with all-natural grilled ribeye steak, roasted shiitake, button mushrooms, portobello mushrooms, creamy mozzarella cheese, caramelized onions, spicy pickled peppers, and a garnish of chives and a garlic aioli drizzle. On the other hand, the new Steakhouse Calzone features a similar combo of grilled ribeye steak, roasted shiitake, button, and portobello mushrooms, caramelized onions, spicy pickled peppers, provolone cheese, seasoned ricotta, all wrapped up in a pizza crust, baked, and served with a side of garlic aioli..
