   This place is great! Unfortunately, I was served shrimp (which I’m allergic to) when we ordered calamari. Had a couple of bites before realizing. But all was well after taking some Benadryl, and the food and service was fantastic!

   In comparison to other steakhouses in NYC, we were disappointed. Steak was cooked properly to medium rare but was not adequately salted. We had the sirloin, rib eye, kobe burger. and lamb chops. The lamb chops were slightly overcooked. The burger was the best of these choices and truly was the star of the show, which should not have been the case. The apps were really good. We had oyster rockefeller, truffle carpaccio, sashimi, and crab cakes. No issues here and it met our expectations. Since we had a mediocre steak we only got one dessert, chocolate cake. This was also underwhelming. As everyone knows, when going to a NYC steakhouse expectations should be high. Unfortunately, they let us down.

   Great Experience. Family Christmas dinner. Excellent selection of Apps, Mains, Sides and Deserts. Apps, Steaks and Chicken were prepared perfectly. Nice Wine and Beer selection. Deserts excellent. Nice traditional setting. Pricing($$$$) similar to other major steak houses in the city.

   Not sure what took us 156 years to get to NYCs oldest steakhouse, (!) but this was one of top 2 steaks we have ever eaten. Absolutely Delicious - Oysters, pork chop, crab, steak…. Service impeccable. Great ambiance.. took us back in time. Was a special 18th birthday spot for my son.

   This was my wife and i’s first visit to this steakhouse. We arrived earlier than our reservation and thankfully they had available seating and were able to accommodate us right away. The service was great, and my wife said her Salmon tasted great as well. I ordered the 10 ounce Filet mignon and it was tender and had a great taste to it. We enjoyed the attentive service of our waiters and while unexpected, we appreciated the hostess going above and beyond to a accommodate our early arrival.

   Great steak, though the waiter or the kitchen mixed up the level of doneness. The person who ordered a medium steak received her’s rare, the one who ordered rare received medium rare, and a third received medium and had ordered medium rare. We exchanged bites but ultimately opted not to exchange plates as we all ordered different cuts. We contemplated sending them back, though we were starving so we just ate. Meat was high quality, though under seasoned. Service was the main criticism. Classic creamed spinach, great baked calms, solid garlic mash. The lobster Mac and cheese was tasty, though extremely low on lobster compared to other steakhouses. Key lime pie was severed too cold and lacking tartness

    Great steak. Indifferent service, starting with the welcome at check-in and continuing through dinner. We got food we didn’t order. The appetizers took ages to arrive. I had sparkling water accidentally sprayed on my back. Sadly, a disappointment all around. At this price point, we don’t recommend it. There are much better steakhouse experiences in NYC.
