Great steakhouse. We started in the bar with a few cocktails. Bar service was great. Our bartender answered a few questions and even gave us some dinner recommendations. We ordered crab cakes, Cesar salad, and steak tartare for our appetizer. The crab cakes were more crab than cake. It was very crabby and delicious. The tartare was also very good. Although there was more potato than steak pieces, it was still very tasty. The Cesar salad was very good as well. Whole leaf baby Romain lightly tossed and with whole pickled anchovies. Yum. For our entrees, we ordered the porterhouse for 2, pea risotto, filet mignon, Brussels sprouts, and pomme purée. Everything was cooked to perfection. Our meat temperature was perfect. Porterhouse was served on a sizzling plate and was also pre sliced for us to share. The filet mignon was also pre sliced. We ordered the baked Alaska for dessert. The banana in that really shined and was very tasty. Typical classic steakhouse in an intimate setting. Highly recommend. read more

Our first visit to this New York "institution" did not disappoint. No Michelin stars here, but it hardly seems necessary. Service was excellent, attentive without being intrusive, and the food was every bit its equal. We started with cocktails, prawns, and salads, all well-executed and nicely paced. For mains, our table had two different steaks and a porterhouse for two, with Brussels sprouts and potatoes on the side. These were some of the best steaks we have ever had, each cooked exactly to the requested temperature, and the portions were huge, with plenty to take home. Dessert featured their signature baked Alaska and a rich chocolate option, both beautifully done and a fitting end to the meal. With a $175 bottle of Rioja, the total for four came to about $1,200, which felt reasonable for the quality, portions, and overall experience. Altogether, it was a great and memorable meal at Delmonico's, and a place worth returning to for a special night out. read more

Wow, I was expecting so much more from Delmonico's, but between the service and an extremely uncomfortable interaction with the staff, it did not live up to the hype. Not only had I been looking forward to dining at Delmonico's, but it's also recognized as America's first fine dining restaurant. However, the service we received this past weekend was so far from the top tier service I expect from a steakhouse. Firstly, the waiter seemed to be inexperienced and quite rude. He came to our table and said something and realized we hadn't heard him he repeated himself louder and sounded irritated. He took our drink orders and we basically didn't see him again till dessert and I had to wave someone down to take our food order. After finishing our meal one of the bus boys / servers approached us and asked if we wanted a picture which we thought was nice of him but then he continued to linger around our table after taking said picture. He then proceeded to ask my friend if he could kiss her on the head which when she didn't respond he proceeded to do so.... I'm not sure who's in charge of training and hiring the employees here, but this place is clearly lacking in professionalism. I would recommend literally any other steakhouse in the city. Carne mare has incredible service and an amazing selection of meat and seafood. read more

I went to delmonicos for restaurant week, and they had a really great deal. For $60 each we got an app, main, and dessert. There is an upcharge for certain specialty items but overall it's much more affordable than coming outside of restaurant week. The place is a historic institution with great service and a lot of seating. For drinks, we got the lychee martini and a purple gin drink. I don't remember the name and can't find it on the website but the purple one was my favorite. For apps, we tried the Caesar salad and the thick cut bacon. The bacon is a must have, delmonicos does it so well. The Caesar salad has small roe mixed through it so if you don't like seafood maybe skip that one! For mains, the restaurant week menu had their filet mignon and then the ribeye was available for $33 extra. The ribeye is their specialty so we tried it, but personally I liked the filet more! It had a great sauce on it. Both steaks were perfectly done. For dessert we had chocolate cake and cheesecake. Both were great but I especially liked the cheesecake. Overall, everything was so well done. Great place for a special occasion read more

YES!! you should make a reservation if for no other reason than because there is important, fine dining restaurant history right here, inside (& outside) Delmonico's, located on Beaver Street in downtown Manhattan, Steps from famous Wall Street. Steps from the famous huge bull sculpture on Wall Street. I mentioned the historical outside because I read in an article somewhere that when the restaurant first opened, people would rub the pillars that are outside by the entrance for good luck. Started in 1837, Delmonico's has a storied history and you are able to see some of it on display inside the restaurant. Photos and memorabilia from the early, early days. And for that reason alone, you should dine here. Mark Twain celebrated his 70th birthday here and you can see artwork on the wall depicting that. Delmonico's created several very famous, beloved dishes ...For example, the dessert called baked Alaska. And other dishes you may be familiar with. Please, See their website. By the way, 1837 is the same year that Tiffany & Co started. What a time!! Can you imagine!? I enjoyed WINTER RESTAURANT WEEK 2026!! I had lunch on my first visit to Delmonico's. I ordered the Maine Crab Cake (+$10) Mmm, I enjoyed this dish, see my photos. It is an artful dish. A Maine crab cake enrobed in yummy, crispy, shredded potatoes. Mmm!! What's not to like!?!?!!! LOL My entree was Filet Mignon. Loved the accompanying whipped potatoes. (See photo) . I'd rate this filet mignon itself 4 stars, only because it was not as soft as I'm used to when I order filet mignon. I was looking forward to that yummy, almost melt-in-your-mouth-softness, but, alas it was not there. I was surprised (and disappointed). It was good, not spectacular. It was deliciously seasoned. My 3rd course, THE FAMOUS DELMONICO'S BAKED ALASKA (+$10). A MUST!!! See my video!! On a very cold winter's day, I appreciated the warm welcome when I entered the restaurant and that was thanks to the two women at the Hostess station. When I left, no one said anything. Nothing at all. (Almost comical, but not). And there was plenty of restaurant, staff and management by the door. A missed opportunity, to be sure. Ideally, you want your patron to leave on an up note level and the goodbye is part two of the welcome. Toward the end of my late lunch, I saw the next shift of servers (upcoming dinner time) arranging beautiful place settings on tables and sometimes adding a chair or two to a large round table. I was very impressed with the care that I saw from each of those servers setting those tables and arranging things on the table. It was obvious the staff I was watching cared deeply about having things just right, perfect. Seeing this reminded me of the fine dining establishments I've had the pleasure of visiting. Kudos to that evening staff caring about setting those tables just right. That was great to see. I loved where I was seated in a beautiful blue cozy booth type table. Apparently there was going to be a shift change... so my first server was very attentive and I appreciated that very much; he was professional and kind. I missed him when I experienced the second server; although he walked by my table several times he was initially not attentive. In any business, There is usually room for improvement. I would respectfully suggest that Delmonico's reminds servers when they're walking by a table to keep their eyes open all around, not just in one direction because at least twice the second server walked by my table, looking away from my table with his back toward my table, never turned his head to see if I needed anything and of course I did so it was frustrating to have him walk by twice. I was not going to call out, simply because that would have ruined my restaurant experience. Delmonico's is beautiful inside and I wanted to keep that ambience and that's why I did not say excuse me hello ... I just figured eventually my server would walk by and look at my table and eventually he did, and I took that opportunity to have a respectful chat with this server so that he was aware that twice he had walked by my table and not even looked in my direction. He was respectful and he heard what I had to say and the next time he walked by what do you think happened? He looked at my table, smiled, I smiled, too, and that's when I ordered my pot of tea which I enjoyed. From then on, things were fine. See my photos. As part of Delmonico's history, you will see photos on the walls. I enjoyed this. If Delmonico's gave a tour of the restaurant I'd sign up for that. But I can tell you there is a bar area that's lovely , and the nearby, single person restroom was lovely and clean. I believe There are some private dining rooms, too. Make a reservation! You can take the 4 or 5 train to the Wall Street stop, then walk toward the famous Wall Street Bull sculpture, and turn onto BEAVER STREET, and you are steps from Delmonico's. read more

We checked this place out for dinner recently and really enjoyed it. The building is really cool, with a lot of history. Definitely worth reading up on, especially all of the dishes that allegedly started at Delmonico's. We had a cozy little two-top table in a smaller dining past the main bar. Our server was friendly but overall, our service was pretty slow. We both enjoyed our glasses of wine and the yellowtail crudo appetizer. The complimentary sourdough and corn bread had good flavor, especially with the butter with Hawaiian salt. My wife ordered the 10oz filet and I ordered the 12oz Delmonico eye. Both were cooked perfectly. The Delmonico potatoes were excellent. It took a little while to get the check, so while we waited for it, my wife went to the coat check to get our coats. As I was getting up to leave, the server brought us a scoop of ice cream with a chocolate that read "Happy Anniversary." That was a nice touch even though we were already leaving. We would definitely check this place out again to try more menu items. read more

Came here for my birthday celebration with friends on a Sunday. We were seated promptly and since it's restaurant week, we all got the restaurant week menu with the signature Delmonico's steak and various appetizers and desserts. We also got lychee martinis and a bottle of red wine. The martinis are quite strong but the flavor is nice with hints of rose and lychee. I got the crab cake as an app while my friends got the crudo, bacons, and burrata and all hit. The presentation and the flavor of the crab cake is amazing, with a massive portion. The Delmonico steaks lived up to its name. The steak is tender and juicy, and the side mashed potato and spinach added a nice balance. The only thing was it's too massive at 18 oz and we could not finish. It's my first time getting the baked Alaska. It's a fun dessert with banana, peach, and apricot elements. It's also huge. My friend got the chocolate mousse and the cheesecake those were delicious too. The only thing that could be improved is that the service seemed rushed, both our waitress and the staff serving the dishes. Not sure if it's bc they were trying to turn tables quickly. Overall it's a solid steakhouse with great food. read more

A new York institution and not to be missed. I most recently visited for restaurant week but have been before. Inside the ambience is exactly what you'd expect from a New Yorker restaurant - it's bustling with wall streeters, date nights and all sorts of people were watching. The crab cake and bacon are the stars of the appetizer menu and for mains you have to get the steak! The baked Alaska was invented in Delmonicos as a tribute to the state of Alaska and it's a good desert to share with a strong banana ice cream flavor. The service was great and attentive. read more

I went to Delmonicos for the first time about a week ago and had such a lovely time and meal with my best friend who was in town celebrating her birthday and our major career win. They went above and beyond to make it all special :). We got to take advantage of restaurant week with 1 app, 1 main, and 1 dessert for about $60 which was such a steal. My friend got the winter soup an I got the burrata and both were delicious, though the burrata was quite light and not super filling as compared to the winter soup, which I wish I got. For mains, we both got the filet minion and it was one of the best steaks I'd ever had. Amazing meal, though the portion of everything felt a hair small -- I suppose that was due to the deal? For dessert, I got the cheesecake which was good, but nothing too wild. Just a simple, fluffy vibe with a very hard crust. My friend got the baked Alaska (which was invented at Delmonico's in the 1800s!) and was a stellar dessert with banana flavor and richness. Super interesting! The staff were so friendly and attentive, and the ambiance was stunning. Definitely a place for celebrations and fancy energy. I'll be back! read more

Had dinner with my family after a Broadway show. The last time I was here was about 10 years ago. I used to work on Liberty for many years and it was nice to stop by for dinner. We were a party of 7. The appetizers were good. The bacon and the crab cake. We also did the wedge salad and it was good. The porter house was good, but not how I remembered. My sister in law's steak was not cooked right. The sides- cream spinach, brussels sprouts, and hash were good. The staff were friendly and the decor still has that flare, but the food was just ok. read more

So this was actually our 3rd choice after the first 2 were fully booked and impossible to get a reservation so we "settled" for delmonico'a as they had a "reasonable" reservation time available. We arrived timely and were directed downstairs to a table in the middle of the brightly lit room...I politely asked for a table in a quieter area as I wanted to enjoy a quiet meal with my children who were visiting for the holidays. Thankfully they moved us to a back room with warm lighting and quieter atmosphere. The thing I have to say about the food is that everything was amazing! Special note for the fish entree that our son's fiancée ordered was apparently one of the best fish dishes hubby ever had. This steak house will no longer be a third choice restaurant for us! read more

All these years and I can't believe I've forgotten to review Delmonico's! I've been here quite a few times, including back when I lived a few blocks away on Hanover Sq, and I don't think I've ever had a single bad meal here. Let me just say two things: the yellowtail crudo is both the best crudo and the best yellowtail dish I've ever had. And if you've never had their famous baked Alaska before, be sure to try it once in your life before it's too late! read more

What an incredible and beautiful spot. This forerunner for ALL fine dining in America is a must while making one reservations within the isle of manhattan. The wedge salad was so well presented and the kind staff that accompanied it. So many kind people and everyone knew the menu inside and out. I recommend THE Delamonico's Burger (Medium Rare) while paired with a solid Syrah. I recommend ending the meal with one of this restaurants inventions. A Baked Alaska. Which was formerly known as a Hawaiian Alaskan due to the heated flambé exterior and frozen interior celebrating both climates of both at the time newly acquired states to the Union at the time. Delmonico's is also responsible for creating Chicken A La Keen, Lobster Newburg and Eggs Benedict. Also, a smart hack is to get the right-when-they-open 12noon Lunch Reservation, this way you an be in this beautiful dining room before its gets buys and honor all the art and decor throughout. We opted to by the cookbook signed by Max Tucci. Our magnificent hostess named Paradise was impeccable with her communication and Sonal our server was wonderful. Also the GM has one of the best tied ties in New York! Viva La Full Windsor Knot! Next time I would love to see the wine cellar if they will let me. Such history and one of the reasons dining in our amazing country is phenomenal. Enjoy! and Bon Appetite! read more

If you're looking to feel fancy and spend an evening downtown, having an impressive dinner at Delmonico's was a great spot to enjoy. Walking in you immediately feel the elegant ambience with high ceilings, large groups of tables and very attentive weight staff. I was a bit disappointed when as of party of two we were seated all the way in the back room. I wouldn't say it's as nice as the front room, but still felt dark, cozy and intimate. We ended up ordering A LOT of food and the staff was kind enough to inform us that since it wouldn't all fit at our table at the same time, they would split it up into different courses for us. THE FOOD: We started with a seafood platter that had a lovely dramatic presentation. The seafood was fresh but I think I learned that cold unseasoned seafood isn't really my thing. I would save my money on this and get a more curated seafood dish on their menu. Continuing on the appetizer as we had the crab cake, yellowtail tartare, and bacon. I was very excited about the famous bacon but honestly, I would pass on that next time it wasn't as impressive. One of my favorite bites of the night was the yellowtail tartare. And I think that is owed to The new head of chef who is incorporating all these lovely Asian flavors into the traditional steakhouse. The crabcake was also not your traditional crabcake. It was packed with crab on the inside with a crunchy potato string on the outside. It was really lovely. For entrées, we shared the lobster Newburgh and lamb chops. Lamb chops were unbelievable also a top bite of the night. I think my expectations for the lobster were very high, but it was not necessarily my favorite and the crispy rice that comes with it was pretty terrible in my opinion. For our steak, we shared the Wagyu cote de beuof, it was a fine steak, presented extravagantly, the spinach side dish was delicious. Finally, I urge you not to skip out on dessert --- the baked Alaska and the cheesecake are to die for. I couldn't pick a favorite. All the flavors were on point. I enjoyed a fancy night out here, but I probably wouldn't come back anytime soon unless I had someone to impress that really wanted to go to a steakhouse read more

An old-school fave, that's even fun on a Monday! We came here during restaurant week and I accidentally showed up an hour early so I got the most delicious martini at the bar while I waited for my partner. The decor and ambiance were spectacular, and the staff was lovely. I highly recommend coming during Restaurant Week - it's a fantastic deal, and you get to try more things for way less. We got the crab cake, bacon (TOO delicious), ribeye, filet (Eye), hash browns, chocolate symphony, and the famous baked alaska. Everything was scrumptious and I'd definitely order everything again. More of a special occasion place, but if you want somewhere where you won't be disappointed, go to Delmonico's! read more

Living within walking distance of this great American institution feels like winning the neighborhood lottery. I love everything about Delmonico's. I often drop into the bar for what might be one of the greatest gin martinis on the planet--perfectly chilled, perfectly made, every time. For special occasions, the main dining room is my go-to: fresh, briny raw oysters and a spectacular steak that never disappoints. The service is always warm, polished, and genuinely attentive without ever feeling stuffy. Classic, elegant, and consistently excellent--Delmonico's is a true New York treasure. read more

One of the oldest steakhouses (wasn't continuously open, but still noteworthy). but in south Manhattan, it's a great spot for a special occasion and a great steak. The ambience is nice with spacious booths, chandeliers, and large art deco style paintings. Bathrooms are small though. Bread was soft inside with crunchy crust, pairing well with black salted butter. We got the filet mignon and ribeye, both cooked to perfection and juicy and tender. The fries were great and perfectly dipped into the aioli sauce. The roasted squash tasted good, but it was pretty oily. The best part - the showstopper was the Baked Alaska, claimed to have been invented here. I really don't see this on any menu, so I had to try it. Anything flambeed tableside wows me. The combination of the hot meringue and the chilled banana inside with apricot jam was a crazy and wonderful mix of flavors and textures. It is definitely worth trying. The service was impeccable, and all the food was amazing. This place is a must if you can get all the way down the island to celebrate and have a great meal. read more

Delmonico's delivered an elegant, intimate atmosphere: warm, quiet and luxuriously appointed, ideal for a special-night dinner. I went for the Valentine's prix-fixe; while I generally view prix-fixe menus as a useful way to introduce diners to a restaurant, this one felt a bit routine. Highlights: the yellowtail starter was excellent -- fresh, beautifully presented and a clear strength. The bacon dish was tasty but ordinary. The porterhouse for two held its own among my favorite steakhouses, Pomme purée tasted like instant mashed potatoes, mushrooms are pass for with balsamic flavor that really did not belong in a main course side dish. Lowlights: service felt slightly disorganized and less attentive than I expect from a classic steakhouse. The Baked Alaska on the menu arrived unflamed, which undermined the theatre of the dish; both it and the cheesecake had the texture and finish of pre-made desserts rather than house-made conclusions to the meal. Overall: lovely room and some genuinely strong dishes, but uneven execution -- especially in service and desserts -- keeps Delmonico's from feeling essential on this visit. read more

Dining at Delmonico's was less a dinner than an encounter with living culinary history. The signature wet-aged Delmonico Steak was exquisitely tender, with a pure richness of flavor, while the potato-wrapped Maine Crab Cake achieved near perfection in both texture and taste.

Worth the Wait -- Amazing Food, Great Service & Classic Vibes I've been wanting to try Delmonico's for so long but always put it off--either no reservations or that hefty price tag! Finally made it happen, and I'm so glad I did because it absolutely lived up to the hype. The food was insanely good and the staff were lovely, attentive, and super helpful in guiding our orders. The restaurant itself is big and beautiful--definitely has that classic New York charm. It can get a little loud, but that's mostly because it's always full (for good reason!). We ordered the Crab Eggs Benedict (incredible--definitely a brunch must) and the Delmonico steak, which was insanely juicy and flavorful, though a little fatty for my taste. Highly recommend sharing the steak and going for some appetizers and dessert too. Yes, it's on the pricier side--but if you split a few dishes, it's totally manageable and 100% worth it. Would absolutely go back! read more

I came here for Restaurant Week and it absolutely lived up to the name. The three course prix fixe was solid on its own but I gladly paid the upcharge for the signature ribeye and it was worth it. I started with their bacon which was outstanding. Thick cut, perfectly cooked, rich and indulgent without being greasy. The main event was the 18oz ribeye. When it came out, I honestly thought it was bone in because of the size, but it was not. Huge portion, beautifully cooked, and exactly what you expect from a classic steakhouse that knows what it is doing. Flavor was on point and the steak easily stole the show. Dessert was a classic cheesecake. Simple, creamy, and well executed, which felt like the right way to end such a hearty meal. On top of the food, the decor is stunning. Classic, and elegant without feeling stuffy. You really feel the history the moment you walk in.

The interior is lovely. The bar lounge area is beautiful and great for a more casual lunch. The bread and butter was delicious. The butter was extremely soft, smooth, and light; it had a hint of sweetness. The fries were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The thinner and smaller fries were only crispy and great. The prime rib sandwich was amazing. The bread looked more well done than I expected/would have wanted, but it did not taste it. The caramelized onions and jus were delicious. I would have liked a touch less onions and more cheese. The glass of wine I had was great, but there was a significant amount of debris in it; I know it's natural, but it's still visually offputting. The baked Alaska was ok; it was pretty hard and difficult to eat. Also, one side wasn't toasted. The staff were very friendly. read more

During this year's NYC Winter Restaurant Week, my friend and I dined in the classic and historic Delmonico's Steakhouse. This is my first time back since COVID and their reopening. We stayed in a low key popping bar downstairs the restaurant. Service was great despite circumstances getting there on time for our reservation. We started off with the sake and an espresso martini. For our appetizers, we had the Yellowtail crudo and the burrata. For our entrees, we both got the steaks and shared the mashed potatoes.

We came for restaurant week which was 3 course for $60 and +$29 for the ribeye. For starters, we got the bacon and crudo. The bacon was brushed with foie gras and was really tender. I was worried it might be too sweet, but luckily it wasn't. The yellowtail crudo was refreshing. The ribeye had a nice crust and was perfectly salted. The salmon was cooked nicely to medium rare. The sauce on the salmon was a bit too mild. For desserts, we got the cheesecake which was infused with some orange essence making it tastes like a creamsicle.The sorbet was straightforward and tasted like how I expected. The food came out really quick. It took 35 minutes to get all of the courses to the table. I didn't mind since I didn't want to lounge around. read more

My friend wanted to go to a more intimate and fancier spot for dinner. So when we saw this spot is doing a restaurant week deal we had to go check it out. The place is dimly lit and spacious spot. They have 2 dining rooms and a bar in the middle. It's definitely a great date spot. Their food is definitely on the pricier end and it is worth it! I was so happy with my 3 courses! Although, I would pass on the sides. Also, fyi they have 2 entrances, one leads to the main restaurant and one to the bar. If possible try to use the main entrance, it definitely looks nicer.

Great service, iconic place , food was good but not amazing , not the best fine dining experience

Delicious food with great service. They have some private dining rooms downstairs and the main dining room on ground level.

Delmonico is in a class by itself. From the moment you enter the establishment in a triangle point entrance, everyone is super professional. The ask you to check your coat in the corner closet so as not to clutter up the dining rooms. They have several rooms including a room for just the bar. We went all the way to the back room to Stewart our experience. Nero was our server and he was a pleasure to deal with. It is a group effort, since we also was approached by the sommelier to see what wine we were going to order.We were not in a mood to drink since we had an early start the next day. We each had a glass of the Ken Wright pilot noir. It is perfect for most steaks you will have. I ordered a Delmonico Eye steak which was incredibly delicious. The flavor was amazing. My colleague ordered the strip. I actually much preferred my Eye steak. It really impressed me with the flavor. I asked them to prepare it med rare to med and it was just right. I also ordered the cream spinach which also was done right. The main dining experience was awesome. The real deal came when we ordered the Baked Alaskan dessert! Those is a must have to finish your dining experience. We enjoyed our experience at Delmonico, I am happy I wanted to try other for the 1st time and enjoyed. The front women could be a little more friendlier. They had a borderline stuck up attitude that my colleague and I noticed. The coat check girl was super friendly and a pleasure to interact with. Definitely go to Delmonico!!! read more

Had an excellent evening here recently - with just one unpleasant snag. Otherwise it measures up to its reputation as one of the premier fine dining establishments in the city. The service is top-tier - you're quickly seated, quickly served, and regularly checked on by friendly staff who're also able to make suggestions on wine pairings, meal options to suit your tastes, etc. The menu is refreshingly straightforward - for Dinner service they have about half a dozen options overall for each of their courses, a little something for everyone but not overwhelmingly complex at all. The food is, predictably, quite good - I had a very good steak as my main (the signature Delmonico ribeye), and also really enjoyed our dessert (pictured here). Top notch quality ingredients and chefs at work, no doubt. The price tag is just as predictably high - one doesn't dine at a place like this every night of the week unless they're an exceedingly "affluent" kinda person (i.e. rich as Croesus). To give you an idea - we ordered one appetizer, two mains (with one side), one dessert, and about 4-5 drinks (3 glasses of wine, one of champagne, and a nice port), and spent over $450 with tip. Not that this is an issue or anything - it just means that coming here is a treat for most. The only blemish on an otherwise pleasant dinner was that despite being explicitly told the opposite while making our reservation, they do not accept Amex gift cards or anything along those lines. That said, it's still a staple of NYC fine dining and has great staff on hand - and their food is quite good. May not have been the literal best steak I've ever had in New York, but it was certainly satisfying. Roughly on par with Gallagher's. Will be curious to try out Keens and other famous steakhouses to compare this to. read more

For my first time at Delmonico's, this was a memorable dining experience. From the incredible dining room ambiance, excellent table service and quality of the food no one should ever say that NYC Fine Dining is dead. Far from it here, it was a silver service table experience on a busy , busy Fathers Day dinner service, The host ( with the red dress) was calm admist a busy front of house and we were seated within 10 minutes of our reservation! My son and I shared the 22oz Rib Eye Bone in , one order of fries while my wife had the shrimp cocktail and order of Brussel sprouts! Everything was excellent even the bread and delicious soft spread butter ! The steak was perfectly cooked and was more than enough for us to have a satisfying meal! For dessert we ordered the chocolate mousse and ice cream which was a perfect way to end the night. For sure, I will be back and look forward to having an excellent experience! read more

We don't normally go to steakhouses, but when we got the opportunity to try one due to a chase promotion, we thought why not go with the oldest at DelMonico's. We made a reservation at 4:30pm on a Saturday and was seated right away. The restaurant was elegant with history. It was dimly lit and very spacious. The complimentary bread basket was great! The bread was warm when it arrived, and it stayed airy and fluffy the whole dinner despite how cold it was inside. Was tempted to bring it home in a to-go box. The tomato focaccia was my favorite. We ordered: Kumamoto Oysters ($28) -- The oysters were not the best I've had, but they were still good. The size ranged decently despite them being the same kind. Maine Crab Cake ($37) -- I'm always hesitant to order crab cakes because I never enjoy it, but the crab cakes were fantastic. This is how all crab cakes should be. It was 85% real crab meat, encased in perfectly fried potato strips, on top of tarragon dill tartar sauce. Signature Delmonico Ribeye ($86) -- The ribeye was perfectly cooked to a medium rare and had a nice crust, but I found it to be a little too salted. I enjoyed the caramelized onions on top and wish there were more. Despite sharing the 18oz steak amongst us two, we were stuffed. They do ask you dress smart casual, and you will feel quite out of place if you don't, as this is fine dining. Staff was very attentive and friendly. Service was fantastic. read more
