Best

We went to Gallagher's on a recommendation from a friend. I loved the NY Steakhouse decor. We had an excellent, friendly waiter who was very accommodating. The steaks were cooked ...

Worst

The meat was cooked wrong for half the group and the waiter was well done. Tougher than a bow legged steer. My steak was cooked ok but my attitude sucked after our group dealt wit...

The Worst Service Ever 12/6/2008

Went to Gallaghers to celebrate our last night in New York on 6/12/08. One particular member of staff who seemed to be our head waiter, when asked a question about ordering was extemely rude and kept repeating ""Menu"", ""Menu"" each time a question was asked. He didn't want to help, he just wanted his menu back. He was extremely rude and stared at us throughout our meal. When we finsihed eating he overtly stared at us again while we worked out our bill and made no effort to conceal his rudeness. For such a revered establishment we were disgusted by him and would never go back there again. By the way, it was in the small section of the restaurant behind the meat -aging room. You know who you are and hopefully your boss will too. A dining experience ruined by an arrogant jumpted up waiter. Pros: ambience good Cons: waiting staff terrible more

Great Steaks 3/21/2008

I agree with the majority of the reviews here. Gallagher's is a great NYC steakhouse. Fine cuts of beef, cooked perfectly to order, delicious side dishes and a helpful staff. Very good wine selection and a convenient midtown location make Gallagher's a great choice. Pros: Steaks, Service more

Excellent Meal 2/13/2008

My friends & I went to Gallagher's on recommendations from friends. We found the waitstaff to be attentive and knowledgable. The wine list was good but let's face it, the reason you go there is for the steaks and they did not disappoint. Excellent cuts of meat cooked to perfection, served with very tatsty side dishes. Highly recommended. Pros: Steaks, Sides, Service more

Very good, dependable steakhouse 1/31/2008

I've been to Gallagher's many times over the years and the steaks & prime rib are consistently good. The sides are also delicious. There's a reason they've been around for a very long time and that is because the quality & taste of their food is very high. Been there many times and will continue to go for years to come. Pros: Quality & Taste of food more

Nice stake, I liked it. 9/26/2007

My experience at Gallagher's was really good. Friendly atmosphere. Really nice staff, me and my fiance talked to the waiters and they even gave us tips on broadway shows. The lunch menu was really good, specially with the CAB steak option. more

Horrible wait staff 7/24/2007

First of all, I have never experienced a more rude wait staff in all my life. I've traveled all over the United States and the world, and not even a low-rent McDonalds could undercut this place on lack of service. Pros: Good Food Cons: Rude staff and overpriced menu more

More Then Great Steaks! 7/13/2007

I attended a reception showcasing the private Trophy Room?s new menus and it was more amazing then I could have imagined. Most of these types of events pass a few appetizers around and that?s if you?re lucky to get near the server. But this event had a seafood station, carving station, platters of international foods, passed appetizers including steak, and fabulous wine and drinks! The ambiance of the room is warm and inviting with walls covered in photos, dark wood and a full bar. The servers have been there for years and know what they are doing and still are able to smile while doing it. If anyone needs to book a private event, you should definitely hold it at Gallagher?s. Pros: Great Private Space, Ambience, Food, Service more

Best Food, Best Staff, Best Experience! 6/25/2007

I've been familiar with Gallagher's for years now, but have only experienced the Las Vegas location so far. Friendly staff (in Vegas!?), great food and wonderful ambiance! Due to my work needs, I have also been in contact with the NYC Gallagher's and can say that every time I've called over there, I am always spoken to in a courteous and professional. If the service and food are as great and the friendly staff over the phone, then I know that this restaurant is the best steak house from coast to coast! Pros: Great Service, Great Food more

Always Dependable 5/15/2007

I've been to Gallagher's many times over the years and ALWAYS enjoy myself. The steaks are great and always cooked to perfection, the side dishes are top notch and the waitstaff is very attentive. They also have a very nice wine list. Gallagher's continues to be a favorite year after year. Pros: Steaks, Side Dishes, Wine, Ambiance more

Great Steak, Very Good Service 4/4/2007

Went to Gallagher's on a recommendation from friends who have eaten at many of the NYC steakhouses but always put Gallagher's near the top of the list. Now I know why. The restaurant had a great NYC feel to it and the service was attentive without being bothersome. Our cuts of meat were the best and were cooked perfectly. The side dishes were also very tasty. No room for dessert, although they looked quite tasty, maybe next time. Highly recommended. more

Wonderful atmosphere 11/20/2006

My daughter and myself arrived on a wet Monday evening about nine o'clock having been on the top deck of the night-time sightseeing bus. We had no booking and chose the restaurant because it was next to our hotel and we wanted a steak before we returned to Scotland-even although we have wonderful meat! We loved the place. We were seated at a good table near the bar right away and our waiter although fairly dour (sullen!) to begin with soon showed a certain warmth when we ordered. The Ceasar salad was fresh and tasty. Our steaks with fries and onion rings were to die for......the wee glass of red was'nt bad either! If it wasn't rather far from Glasgow we'd certainly be back. more

Horrible service, great steak 11/13/2006

When I first arrived a few minutes early for my reservation, the waiters and host completed ignored me for almost 5 minutes while I tried to get someone's attention. When the host finally bothered to greet us, he rudely told us that we were a little early so we would need to wait a few minutes. The restaurant was practically empty so I don't know what they were so busy doing that they couldn't at least seat us or give us a menu to look at. Once we finally sat down, the service was average. The waiter took our order fine and wasn't rude, but he was by no means especially friendly. The food, on the other hand, was great. The steak and apple pie were great. Overall though, I probably wouldn't go back to this place because I could find food just as good at another restaurant with much better service. Pros: great food Cons: horrible service more

past it's prime 8/15/2006

This is one of those places that seems to be resting on a reputation it had 40 years ago. When you walk in you see pictures of has-been celebrities from 50 years ago, and a case of molting meat (the aged steak.) If you've ever been to Florida and have been sent to ""that seafood restaurant on the water"" that all the tourists go to but the locals avoid, you'll know the feeling of walking into this place. It feels old, neglected, almost forgotten in time. Pros: location Cons: price, ambiance, food more

Save (a lot of) your money 5/4/2006

I've been to most of the steakhouses in NYC and this was far below them. The waiter was unattentive and grouchy, each of the three steaks in our order were tough and not tasty. Furthermore, the two sirloins ordered medium were served very rare. The side dishes were bland as were the desserts. Be wise and spend your money at one of the other steakhouses. more

Stay Away! 4/1/2006

Looked like a nice restaurant and based on the prices expected good service and good food. Sadly though have to say after a week of eating out in NY this place was by far the worst service we received and by far the most expensive place we ate at ($260 for 3 of us). The waiter delivered our food and then walked away never once asking us how our food was or if we needed anything else. Then had the water boy in his food stained apron take our dessert order who also was the person who delivered our dessert. The only redeeming factor of the night was the dessert which was very good but certainly not worth the cost of an overall horible experience. When I compained to the Manager on the way out he had nothing to say, he just walked away. Pros: dessert Cons: horible service, average food, high prices more

Owner Message

  • Gallagher's opened its doors in 1927, a speakeasy with a secret password and a clientele list that read like a Who's Who of Broadway. 75 years later, Gallagher's has set the standard for the real New York City steakhouse. USDA prime beef, dry aged in their own meat locker and grilled to perfection over hickory logs. For a real NYC steak house experience - there's nothing quite like Gallagher's.
