Outdoor seating available and it’s warm with enough heating. Lunch special is with good portion and reasonable price. Friendly service. Food is delicious too!

The staff was very friendly, kind, quick and service was on point. The complimentary truffled butter and bread was delicious! We ordered the tomahawk steak and truffled mushrooms with a French onion soup as a starter. The steak was cooked more rare than medium rare, but it did not taste amazing or unique in anyway. The truffled creamed mushroom was pretty bland and did not pair that well with the steak. Overall our experience was decent but the flavors of our selection was nothing too special unfortunately.
Thank you for reading and good luck!

Came here on Sunday dinner during restaurant week fixed $60 for a four course meal. We were seated on the second floor, dim lights perfect for a date night. Pretty empty while it was 6:30. More people started showing up after 7:30pm. I’m glad that they seated us on the second floor as the first floor is more casual and more people talking with seats closer to each other. The burrata and thick bacon as appetizers with some complimentary bread was a great start. we both ordered sirloin, one as medium and the other as medium rare. Even the medium was very soft and juicy, apparently the steaks are aged between 27-31 days. The side of steak fries were bomb! Dessert was the cherry on top, I recommend the cheese cake. Chocolate mousse cake was good but had the Hershey’s flavor instead of rich chocolate. Malbec was very smooth and fruity too.

Amazing food and ambience, with generous servings, with prices that match their quality. Service could have been a bit better.
I had a filet mignon (medium rare) which despite being called a lady's meat was something I really enjoyed. The star for me however was the lobster bisque which had a nice smooth richness with great flavor.
The carrot cake at end was okay and I would recommend the chocolate mousse cake or cheesecake over it. Their Malbec was also quite nice as well as the decaf cappuccino I had to finish the day.
I personally liked the Benjamin steakhouse (1 block in front) over the steakhouse prime.

Went for our anniversary and sat in the outdoor dining. It was soo lovely, romantic, and exquisite experience. We had the Porterhouse steak, oysters, scallops, Italian wine. Our servers and sommelier were amazing!! Steak was cooked to perfection, best oysters I have ever tasted. Beautiful experience for our special celebration!

Absolutely one of the best steakhouse in NYC! The steak was cooked perfectly and the ambiance is stellar. We came here for a celebration and they treated us like we were celebrities. I’ve been to here and their location in White Plains. They are both astounding and I will definitely come back.

Came here on Valentines day and of course it was so hectic. Got 2 of the Valentines specials, which was $99 for each, and the amount of food was abundant.
Nice atmosphere even though tables were set very close to one another, which made the customers a little uncomfortable moving around. Staffs were super nice yet the service was a little off. I saw some waiters got lost didn’t know what they were doing. But they really tried their best to accommodate us. Love the decorating rose on the table.
Juicy steaks, very fresh oysters and tasty cheesecake. Plenty of great options for wine. I love the experience!

Beautiful place ❤️.Comfortable atmosphere, and beautiful setting with two floors. Experienced staff, our waiter was very nice and catered to our every need.Came here during restaurant week, so we eat from that specific menu, but let me tell you how I thought the food was gonna be a small portion, boy was I fooled they gave us a decent amount of food. I preferred the grilled calamari with the New York sirloin and mashed potatoes. The food was amazing. For desert I ordered the carrot cake and it was very good aswell. Over all this was a nice experience, looking forward to coming again ☺️.

Delicious ????!!! Went out for Resturant week and it was really nice , the server made sure me and my friends were good & enjoying ourselves . We did get there around 9:20 and got seated even though our reservations were for 9:45 it wasn’t packed or busy on a Tuesday. Thank you for such a wonderful experience !

The steak is very good, but the service is bad. The substandard quality of the service prevents me from recommending this restaurant. When our party of 5 entered on a very calm Tuesday evening, the hostess and staff did not offer to check in our coats. After we were led to our tables and uncomfortably sat down with large winter coats on our seats, we had to ask if there was a coat check, and only then did the wait staff offer to take our jackets. We asked for a bottle of sparkling water, and tap water in one glass, and a cup of hot water. The tap water never arrived. Later in the service, after the main courses arrived, one person asked for a few paper napkins. They did not arrive for 10 minutes until we asked again. The restaurant was not even half full, so being busy could not be blamed for these gaps in service. Another person burned his fingers on a hot plate because they were not adequately warned that all plates were hot, not just the plates with food on them. One person asked about nonalcoholic mocktails (they had none), and whether the bar could make a virgin mohito. They were given Sprite with a mint leaf. The table was not wiped down after the appetizers and entrees were taken away. The creme brulee with a birthday candle was served on the table before dirty dishes from the main course were fully cleared. The staff was impatient as we asked questions about post dinner refreshments. We ordered three coffees, but only two arrived and we had to remind the staff about the third. When the check came, I tipped 10% (lowest I've ever given) to send a message that I was not happy with the service. When the waiter inquired about the tip (with audacity to insist for more), I changed it to 25% because I do not want multiple people's livelihoods, especially the kitchen staff which did an excellent job with the meal, to be hurt by the poor service of one waiter. I hope the restaurant staff understands that bad service puts them at risk of bad tips. We spent near 1000 dollars in 2 hours at this restaurant and only the food portion of the cost was worth it. I will not give additional business to this restaurant and I will discourage everyone I know from visiting. Hopefully this post discourages strangers from visiting as well.
