Uncle Jack's used to be much better. The service was slow. Not the take your time while you eat slow, but we asked 3 times for an appetizer we never got, had to ask for drinks twice. When we finished we opted to not even get desert because no one would even acknowledge us for over 30 minutes after we finished eating. The food was just okay, but used to be much better. I would check out other steakhouses first. They had 2 servers, 3 food runners, and a manager attending 9 tables so I don't believe it was a staffing issue. I don't know if it was just a really bad night for them, or if it turned into a tourist trap.

Great atmosphere and fantastic food all around! Make a reservation or take your chances at the bar and high tops.

Uncle Jack's Steakhouse almost got 5 Stars. This restaurant has a great location only a few blocks from New York Penn Station and Madison Square Garden, not very far from other attractions such as Broadway or Empire State building. I've always wanted to check this place out as it is only a few hundred feet away from the B and H Superstore on the 9th Avenue. I finally got a chance to try it before heading off to the Billy Joel concert at MSG. Like another reviewer, I got there right before the dinner rush with my wife and niece. We were able to snag a table without any issues. However, I did notice that 45 minutes later around 6:30 PM people having difficulty getting a table without a wait.
Before I get to areas that were negative and there were only a few (major ones if you have a disability), let's accentuate the positive. The staff were super gracious and attentive.The food, was excellent. We had the Wagyu Kobe Meatballs as the App. and they were melt in your mouth delicious.
The entrees did not disappoint. My wife had the salmon (I know, salmon in a steak place?) and my niece and I had the boneless aged NY strip. All were cooked to perfection and one would expect nothing less from a landmark steakhouse. We shared the sides, loaded mash potatoes, Sauteed asparagus and a creamy corn dish. Seasoning and temperature all on point.
Some Observations
– This restaurant is wheelchair accessible from the street to the main seating area and bar are accessible for wheelchairs or scooters. Tables were large and could easily handle multiple wheelchairs. The staff appeared to be familiar with wheelchair seating as they mentioned providing the right kind of table. We were seated but soon found out that there was a slight leak in the roof when my wife noticed water droplets on my shirt and napkin. We moved the table over and they were very apologetic, however when I looked up at the ceiling it appears that this has been a long-standing issue as the paint peeled around the park that was leaking and you could tell there was water damage that had been there for a while. This is surprising for such a high-end restaurant.
—The restrooms to this restaurant are upstairs and they are in accessible to wheelchairs or people with mobility issues or devices. If using a restroom is super important to you you may want to skip this restaurant.
— Like most restaurant in this area especially since the development of the Hi-Line and Billionaires Row things are pricey. This is not a budget restaurant, as an example 5 small appetizer meatballs cost $25. The most expensive protein item on the menu is the Kobe beef steak, 16 ounces for $300 (sides not included). There are options such as the ones that we chose network $35, however, if you are coming to this place or any other place in New York City and our meeting someone who may not be able to afford these prices, please be cognizant of your privilege.

11/28/21- Great aged steaks, great service and a great time! We arrived for an early dinner with no reservations and we’re seated immediately. They had just opened for dinner so the restaurant was empty. Our servers were very attentive and helped us to have a great time.

This place is just as amazing as I remember it being 5 plus years ago! My boyfriend took me here for my birthday; after spending the past year in a half listening to me rave on about this place and specifically this peanut butter bacon dish they have ???? & let me tell you it definitely didn’t disappoint????????! Everything was beyond exceptional; from the service, to the food. We will be visiting again for sure. & if you’re are in the area I definitely recommend stopping in and meeting some friendly faces. &&& the bacon!! Don’t forget to try the bacon!

First time to visit for a business lunch as I moved nearby. It was nice traditional steakhouse like many that have been in NYC for decades. Good food and menu covered all the basics of what a traditional steakhouse should cover on the menu. Good food and service and was present experience

I stopped in for a quick bite when I arrived in NY and I loved it! Aside from the food being immaculate, my waiter/bartender was very friendly and made sure I had a good experience. I tried their lamb lollipops and their lobster Mac and cheese, it was so good. I also had a few glasses of Prosecco, which were smooth. I have already notified my husband that we will visit this restaurant again when we return to NY this year. I cannot wait!
