Our group enjoyed a wonderful dining experience in one of New York's legendary steakhouses. Everything was prepared and timed perfectly throughout the evening and it was a pleasure to host our night out at this historic location. The service was top notch and the hand-crafted cocktails during the meal were delicious, cold and exceptional. A+ overall for our night out beginning with the Caesar salad, and spot on prepared bone in ribeye, Cajun and NY strip with amazing classic sides of onion rings, whipped potatoes and creamed spinach!! Two thumbs up and what every NY steakhouse should aspire to.
