What's the difference between a sirloin and rib-eye steak?

Help me make my meal choice for a night out next week ... thanks

Ribeye's tastier and juicier. Sirloin has the edge very very slightly on tenderness.
Either way, enjoy! Christmas night out?

They're cut from different parts of the cow. Rib-eye (surprisingly) is from the ribs area, and I believe sirloin is from the lower back area.

Pogue has it spot on with varying tastes.

I love steak, enjoy

Isn't the sirloin just above the tenderloin and is just by the back of the cow... the rib eye is from the middle isn't it more fattty but for me its more tasty...
