Best

Good: Out of the myriad number of steakhouses that I've been to in NYC and elsewhere, I found BLT Steak to have the BEST steak, and that's not even counting the Kobe steak that th...

Worst

Shots fired, and missed! With the mixed reviews, we decided to try this place out and hope for the best. What we got was a rude server and food that was not worth anywhere near wh...

exceeded my expectations 2/10/2006

When I enter a restaurant with such high ratings I often find my self disapointed, not the case here. Everything was as good if not better than I expected. The amuse that was sent out was fantastic, not to mention the famed popovers. My boyfriend and I shared the porterhouse and enjoyed every bite until we couldnt possibly continue. The parmesan gnocchi was my favorite. We will both be back soon. Pros: service, wine list more

Overrated 8/23/2005

This place is not worth the price at all. The kobe beef in the sandwich was not tender, but somewhat tough and the herb marinated skirt steak (that was highly recommened by our waiter) was okay at best. On top of that we ordered medium well and got medium rare. There are better steakhouses to go to. Pros: Cool Decor Cons: Overpriced, Steaks are ok. more

ok but not one of the top steak houses 6/24/2005

BLT Steak was a decent steak house but there are many others that are much better. The ambience is great and better than most steakhouses. They also served other dishes other than steak which was nice for others. However, I ordered as I always do the filet and although it was good, the size was relatively small and the sides were just average. However, their prices are not average. Overall, it was a decent meal but overpriced. There are 5-6 other steak restaurants in new york with better food at the same price. Pros: ambiance, service Cons: amount of food, overpriced more

User review by spinoooch 6/20/2005

I was very disappointed, the steaks, lamb, and short ribs were all over done. The creamed spinach along with the Hen of Woods were so salty it was uneatable. I must admit our server was nice It might have been an off night, but I will never go back. Besides spending big money, the food was just not good I can think of a dozen or so other steak houses that I would rather spend my money. more

I'M IN THE MOO FOR STEAK 6/19/2005

THE STEAK HERE IS GOOD, I STILL PREFER MORTON'S OVERALL. THE SERVICE IS A LITTLE OVERBEARING AT TIMES. CONSIDERING HOW THEY FUSS OVER YOU, THEY STILL MANAGED TO GET THE LEFTOVERS MIXED-UP WHICH ANNOYED ME AS I TOOK HOME MY FRIEND'S WELL DONE FILET AND SHE GOT MY RARE ONE. GREAT WINE LIST - THAT IS THE ONLY CATEGORY WHERE THEY HAVE OTHER NY STEAK PLACES BEAT. DEFINITELY WORTH A SECOND TRY THOUGH! Pros: GREAT WINES Cons: PRICEY more

Great Steak 6/1/2005

BLT is a gem. The filet was absolutely perfect and the popovers were delicious. The $40 dollar bottle of merlot was excellent. It is so rare these days to get a steak exactly the way it should be. The atmosphere was also great and the service was prompt and courteous. I will definitely recommend this place to my friends. Pros: Good steak, great service, reasonable prices more

What a scene! 5/6/2005

When my family and I went to BLT Steak we could barely make it down to the hostess because the bar was packed. Everyone sizes you up as you try and make your reservation. We were promptly seated and waited eagerly for our popovers. My friend and I shared the Porterhouse Steak for 2 and it really is for 3 people. We barely put a dent in it. My other friend had the American Kobe special for $65 and said it was good, but not worth the $65. The dessert was standard - nothing special. The place is great for taking friends from out of town to experience a little the NYC culinary life. No need to return in the near future. Pros: atmosphere, steak, popovers Cons: noisy, value more

disaster... 5/4/2005

On Christmas Eve night, My Filet came in "well-done" while ordered " medium rare" The waiter did not even come back to ask "how's everything"... I ended up eating the well-done filet it was very dry - tasteless or flavorless. (nobody wants to have your people to wait unnecessary at holiday dinner). Since we had appetiziers, we could not finish the entrees and asked the waiter to wrap the leftover. The saver did not come back with the food but just with the bill. I called up the restaurant next week, and explained the situation to the manager, who was offering " do something nice for your next visit"... I suggestted the manager to get back to me with "what exactly they can do to make this up" after her talking to the management, but no return calls yet. Worst exprience. more

Amazing each time I've walked in 3/29/2005

The service, food, and wine list as well as the knowledge possessed by the staff has been amazing each and every time I've dined at BLT Steak or just popped in for drinks. As for those who would say it's too expensive - it's NYC. Midtown. Good food and a discerning crowd cost money. The portions and quality are well worth it. In my opinion, the bar is not very well laid out, its narrow design makes it hard to meet a group for drinks. In addition, Their Sommelier team is one of the top in the City. Pros: Wine Knowledge, Attentive Staff, Worth the $$$ Cons: Loud, Midtown Crowd more

Fort Knox Prices for Bistro Value 1/25/2005

The famous popovers tasted like they were from the previous day and had been reheated in a microwave...in a word, tasteless and gummy. The filet of sole was $45.00 a la carte and the sauce accompanying it tasted like the salt lake city flats. The side dishes we sampled: mushrooms, parmesan gnocchi and creamed spinach were no better or worse than those I've had for half the price. The food was lukewarm. The waiter not to be found for the most part. My advice -- don't waste your money here. Pros: nice room Cons: , lukewarm food, nothing special more

More like BLT Chopped Steak 1/13/2005

BLT Steak may be a great restaurant. The problem is it is so popular; it does not have to be more than a good restaurant. Huge adoring crowds of patrons are good for the bottom line, but seldom good for the quality of food or service. The portions are huge; the service is good, the quality of the ingredients is good. The problem is until the kitchen and service staff have to work for customers they are on cruise control and BLT will continue to just please not wow people that know great food. more
