What diners are saying
Celebrated as an "old school" steakhouse with a casual bar section, diners appreciate the generous portions and classic New York vibe. Standout dishes include the porterhouse for two, "world-class" creamed spinach, and a killer burger, though some steaks occasionally miss the mark on seasoning or char. Guests enjoy the complimentary bread baskets and split pea soup, but note that prices are high and the seating can feel tight. While service is generally described as friendly and nice, experiences vary from attentive to slow, with mixed feedback on consistency.
