    Visited Quality Meats for a family Christmas Eve dinner. Food was impressive and exceptional in taste. Felt that the dining experience exceeded the dollar value of the meal. We were very well attended to and the service added additional satisfaction to our visit. Will certainly dine again at Quality Meats.

    I don’t recall his name but our server was outstanding! Pleasant, fun, and helpful. The family talked about what a great vibe he brought to dinner! We go as a family every time we go to NYC (our third trip) and food is always delicious, with PLENTY to go around. Also appreciated the water pitcher on the table. As a large family (table of 9), it’s so much easier to keep the water glasses full ourselves. Thanks again!!

    Aretsky’s Patroon is now our favorite New York restaurant. Period. From the moment we entered we were warmly greeted snd shown to our table. A few minutes later Gene Aretsky came up to our table to thank us for our patronage and to make sure we found everything to our liking. He was followed by our waiter, Stefan, an exemplar of elegance and efficiency. We ordered our meal — we split a Caesar salad, my wife ordered the halibut and I ordered one of their signature steaks. Then, as we were enjoying our salad, the owner, Ken Aretsky, approached our table and made us feel like old friends. It was a memorable evening to say the least. The food was excellent, both beautifully presented and prepared to perfection. Aretsky’s Patroon should be at the top of the list for anyone looking for a restaurant that lives up to the best New York that the city has to offer.
