Rare, medium and well done are all a matter of opinion. When I order steak I always say "warm red center" or "cold red center." That way if they get it wrong I don't feel bad calling them on it.

At home, I slip the skillet on the gas, and wait until it just about burns a chunk of bread. Then, I toss the salted chunk of beef on board. Wait a few minutes, and turn it around. Wait a few minutes, and it's plate ready. It's not rocket science, folks. So how come so many eateries can't get it right? EH?

actually there are specific times and temperatures for all of those in a restaurant. and while things do happen, if you're not a douchebag, feel free to politely refuse any food you find unacceptible. at a good place, they want you to be happy and come back.
