With grilling season coming up, we bet you're starting to think of all the big hunks of meat you're going to fire up. Or, maybe, the thought of grilling a steak is just too much work for you. Well, that's fine, because New York City is full of steakhouses that will fulfill your most carnivorous desires. Check out our list of the city's best steakhouses from our New York City Restaurants guide, and see if your favorite meat purveyor made the list.
Not having Smith & Wollensky on here is a travesty.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely - the Mother Ship of all steakhouses!!!!
DeleteNo S&W?? Someone missed the boat.
DeleteMark Joseph's is every bit as good as any of the Wolfgang's locations and better than Sparks as well.
ReplyDeleteNo Primehouse anywhere? But Mortons?
ReplyDeleteHow can you not include the original Smith & Wollensky on Third Avenue in Manhattan in this ranking? I am looking at their front door from my office window as I write this comment, and eat there often for lunch & dinner. The bone in rib eye is the best steak I have ever had anywhere in the US in my entire life. I wish that this ranking could be amended, as this is a severe oversight.
ReplyDeleteLooks like the picture you are using for WOlfgangs is actually Del Frisco's...
ReplyDeleteI'd "like to know" if "Mr. Mulcahy" could have "written" this "article" if the "quotation mark" key on his "keyboard" weren't "functioning properly".
ReplyDeleteSmith and Wolensky's is a has been that quality has suffered. I am surprised Gallaghers and Bobby Vans are not on the list!!
ReplyDeletecan't believe #1 is peter luger's: not only the worst steaks of the bunch, but the worst value too. duh
ReplyDeleteThese are the true leaders as Steakhouses from someone that knows not some writer that thinks they know;
ReplyDeletePeter Luger - They pick out their own meat....so every piece of meat is hand selected by the owners only..
Keens- Picks most of their own meat
Wolfgangs- Luger rejects that think they know the meat business
Smith & Wollensky NYC- Tough meat steward that knows some meat
Benjamins- same Luger rejects
Old Homestead- another meat maven that thinks he knows meat
-----------------
Mortons
Palm Steakhouse
Ruth's Chris
are all chain restaurants that purchase on a yearly basis have no idea what they get most of them get Holstein cattle not Steers that the rest get
Quality meats is the best. Period! Its owned by s and w and has the great meat but also the great atmosphere
ReplyDeleteWhy isn't Ben Benson's listed? That restaurant is for serious steak eaters and not for the "branding generation."
ReplyDeleteBen Benson's may be leaving us, but , it is still one of the best out there. Who is this guy Mulcahy?
ReplyDeleteMark Joseph's is every bit as good as any of the Wolfgang's locations and better than Sparks as well.
ReplyDeleteInteresting. I agree with some of these but not others. Certainly not Lugers. Check out Johnny Prime's reviews for really in depth reviews of most of the city's best joints. From what I understand it is a work in progress.
