Yes, it is true if you want the steak to cook evenly... You are going to want to let them come to room temp (this should take about 30 - 45 minutes) out in the open air... Go ahead and season them right before you toss them on the grill... My suggestion is just a little salt and some cracked black pepper...
Here are a few important things to keep in mind before you pan fry steak. You'll get much better result cooking steak that you've allowed to reach room temperature. Take the steak out about 30 minutes to an hour before cooking it. Otherwise, the steak will toughen when the cold comes into contact with the heat.
