I organized a dinner to send one of my buddies off to India for a 2 year work stint. It was a last minute deal and we planned on 8-10 guys showing up. He wanted to do steak. We...

Cool atmosphere, great food 10/21/2006

Had a reservation for 7 pm on a Saturday night, we were running late, got there at 730. We figured that we would have to wait forever for a table and the host seated us promptly. Great service, the swordfish was amazing, get the creamed corn with pancetta, delicious! I loved the red walls and dark lighting. Only drawback, our table was right near the bar, as it started to get busier, patrons were standing over us, felt like they were watching us eat. But over all, a great meal, would definitely go back. more

Highly overpriced... 8/1/2006

In a place with such a reputation and such prices, you would expect a MUCH better steak quality. The strip was just ""above average"" and rather medium-rare cooked instead of rare (in such an expensive steak house, when you order ""rare"", you expect rare, nothing else). If the prices were half of what they are, the experience would be very satisfactory, because the place looks and feels great. But with the existing price/quality level, I don't think so... Pros: Atmosphere, service Cons: very low quality/price ratio more

Best Steak in NY and Beyond 7/20/2006

Went last night with a group of 8 and had a great experience. Started with oysters on the half shell, clams casino (very good but small), and salad. The bone-in ribeye was unbelievable and very large. By far the best ribeye I've ever had. Others got the strip, the porterhouse for two, and the filet (all were overly pleased). Besides the quality of the steak seasoned to perfection, the sides make this place the best steakhouse in NYC and beyond. We ordered creamed spinach (fantastic), garlic french fries (good), an unbelievable Goose Fat Potato and even better Creamed Corn with Pancetta. These two sides are a MUST order...you won't be dissapointed. Carbonera sauce was provided on the side. I couldn't fit dessert in my stomach but they all looked fantastic. more

Don't believe anyone who doesn't call this the best steak experience in NYC 7/17/2006

Ok people. Read the reviews. What do we have, about 99.9% rave reviews for the Strip House? Yes, they sometimes over book and you may have to wait, but this is hardly uncommon in smaller, high-end restaurants. (Would you prefer to be rushed out of your table when it is YOUR turn to dine?) The person who called the Strip House's steak ""mediocre"" is probably the owner of a sub-par steakhouse, or is perhaps sleeping with one. This is an unacceptable comment. There is no reasonable person with even the most complicated of palates who would call the Strip House steak ""mediocre."" And I don't know about any of you, but I was a frat boy, and I never went to a fraternity that looked like the Strip House. I hate to bash the basher, but this is clearly a conniving reviewer seeking to rip the Strip House for some other personal reason, and not on the quality of the food or the atmosphere of the room. Go to the Strip House and find out for yourself. Then come back here and pile on more good reviews. The Strip House has earned a very unique niche in the NY restaurant business and fully deserves it. Pros: Best strip hands down, warm and cozy atmosphere Cons: You may be eating in for the next few weeks after getting the bill more

frat house feeling, mediocore steak 6/20/2006

After waiting over a half hour for a 7 pm res. on a Tues. night they finally tried to seat us in the bar area. Dark and crowed. We protested and they finally sat us in the dining room!! We had boring salads to start. And then waited another 40 minutes for our porterhouse. Waiter was apologetic and nice. This was clearly a manegement issue. Steak was pretty standard at best. Overly peppery. Sides are better. To compensate they brought us a ""complimentary"" piece of cheesecake. However, management is so disheaveled they actually charged us for it. Sure, you've heard atmosphere is dark and glam. Believe me, it's seen better days. Go some where else for steak. Stop by Striphouse for a drink and to possibly pick up a frat boy. more

Incredible 6/19/2006

The restaurant is great! I went w/ my father for fathers day and everything was perfect. We both had the rib-eye and it was without a doubt that best steak I have had in NY and I have been to nearly all of the top restaurants. We also ordered the mashed potatoes, mushrooms and green beans and they were all great as well. Pros: Food, music, service Cons: Prices more

WOW! 5/28/2006

We've been here a number of times and have always been thoroughly impressed. The martinis are awesome, the porterhouse for 2 is a must, and the truffle creamed spinach cannot be missed. One draw back is the exorbitantly expensive wine list; options are limited if you're looking to spend $40-$50 on a bottle of wine. But don't let that dissuade you; Strip House is our favorite restaurant in NYC and it's worth the scratch. And as an added plus the service is phenomenal. Pros: porterhouse, creaed spinach, service Cons: wine captain , long waits more

Great NY Strip 2/23/2006

Had a great business dinner here a few weeks ago and plan to return for my birthday. The ambiance is great and the food is phenomenal. I had the bibb salad, a NY Strip cooked to perfection and we tried almost all the sides. All were great!! The only issue we had was the wait. We waited an addditonal half hour after our reservation which in a business setting was an annoyance. For a more social occassion I wouldn't have cared as they have a nice lounge to have a pre-dinner cocktail in. Pros: food, ambiance Cons: wait, crowded more

Hostess should be fired 2/16/2006

This rude unaccomodating girl ruined our entire weekend!!!!! Made reservation over a month ago for a special occassion. Reservation was apparently entered into the incorrect day. We called to confirm the day before and the hostess said there was nothing she could do to correct the reservation as they were now full. Not to mention that it was only a reservation for 2 and that nite there ended up being 29 inches of snow. Im sure the restaurant was empty. Thats why she is only a hostess and doesnt have a more prestigious job. Plenty of other better restaraunts in the city where you can be treated better. Pros: Steak, Ambience Cons: Hostess, Long Wait more

Did not live up to the hype 2/14/2006

My boyfriend and I went there a few months ago. We had a reservation and still had to wait about 30 mins for our table. The decor was great, but the food was average. The wine list was limited. I was expecting much more from this restaurant. I had the strip steak and it was nothing special. I have been to several other steakhouses at this same level. I had heard about Strip House and could not wait to go there. Maybe I was there on an off night. I don't know. I don't plan on going there again. Pros: great decor Cons: limited wine list, food just average more

SOO sexy! SOO swanky! 2/5/2006

I love the atmosphere of this restaurant!!! Most steak houses are tough, gritty, hvy wooden seating, damily style restaurants. The Strip House is dimly lit with sexy black and white photos covering the red walls. Even the napkins have subtle pictures of sexy poses!! There are generally 4-5 waiters attending to each table, not all have the politest attitudes.... But the food makes up for that little detail. Definitely good for a date. Also good to lounge at the front bar for a few drinks. Pros: sexy atmosphere, good food, good location Cons: slight service 'tude more

My Favorite Steak in NYC 1/25/2006

The combination of great decor, a hopping scene, and excellent steak are what make Striphouse so good. I've been here a few times and every meal has been excellent. The steaks are cooked to perfection, charred on the outside and cooked to temperature on the inside. The swanky red decor has kind of a 70s porn feel to it, and it works. Even the apps are great (fantastic heirloom tomatoes). They also have an extensive (but slightly pricy) wine menu. The only minus I would say is the dessert. The chocolate cake is certainly huuuge, but basically tastes like a Hostess cupcake (maybe that's not so bad). Also, don't have high hopes for being seated on time. Pros: Food, Scene, Wine more

Bad experience 1/10/2006

I went to striphouse with my girlfriend for our anniversary and had a terrible meal. This is our 5th or 6th time to this restaurant and each and every time we have had incredible service and the food was truly ""out of this world"". However, something has definitely changed at what used to be one of our favorite restaurants in the city. The steak came out relatively cold, was a terrible cut and had little to no taste. I actually had to use the steak sauce just to get through the meal. In the past I would have said this meal was worth every penny you paid, however it seems the quality has gone down and is not worth the money you spend. So save your money and try out a different steakhouse. more

Great evening 10/30/2005

Hosted a Bachelor party at the strip house and I cant say enough great things. The food was outstanding as was the advice of our waiter and the wine steward. The prime rib was awesome as was the spinach and the fries. Ambiance was warm and friendly. Even though we werent a huge group the staff was attentive and friendly. If youre looking for a great steak with awesome service in a comfortable atmosphere, this is your place. If you want to be brow beaten by the surly staff at a classic steak joint, youd be happier elsewhere. Id recommend this place for any guys night our or even a fun date. Pros: Great Food, Great Service, Great Evening Cons: Worth the expense more

Pretty and Yummy! 8/7/2005

My boyfriend took me here for a romantic evening. It certainly was. The decor was fabulous, the food was amazing and the music they played set the mood. I recommend the Rib Eye. The cheesecake is so big you will need a shovel but it is well worth it. Enjoy! Pros: Great Food, Nice decor Cons: Strange service more

Great steak, great service 6/15/2005

Strip House is easily one of the top 3 steakhouses in NYC, it is the perfect place to go to impress a lady on a first date. Steaks were cooked exactly to our order and the side dishes were delicious (black truffles w/ spinach and crisp goose fat potatoes). Service was great, our waiter (Nigel) couldn't have been better. Finish off your meal with the chocolate cake. One downside was the near 45 minute wait despite reservations...and thats on a wednesday night. Spend your time sitting on one of their couches enjoying a cocktail from the bar. All in all i HIGHLY reccommend Strip House and although a bit pricey it was well worth it. Pros: Great Steaks, Service, Great for dates Cons: Long wait, A bit pricey more

The First Place I Go... 6/5/2005

...when I have money. I dream about the juicy steaks and especially the creamed spinach, garlic french fries, and stuffed heirloom tomatoes. When I have even more money, I order the lobster! I also like the fact that I have my own table. The one near the restrooms. So what, I like it. The place makes me feel like I've stepped into a private club. Most restaurants ignor single diners, but the waiters at Strip House are so kind and attentive when I dine alone. And I'm not even a blonde with big B----!! This is my absolute favorite steak house. Pros: Food, Staff, Ambiance Cons: Too crowded sometimes more
