This is an amazing deal! The bread was crispy on the bottom and soft in the middle. I wish the butter was more spreadable but it was cold and firm. The salad was perfect. I like how the dressing was very light but the salad still tasted great. I got my steak cooked medium and that was perfect. The fries were crispy and flavorful. I thought the sauce was ok but my boyfriend liked it read more

Stopped by Medium Rare in Midtown and really enjoyed the simplicity of the concept -- a focused menu that does a few things well instead of trying to do everything. The steak was cooked properly with a flavorful char, and the signature sauce paired nicely with the crispy fries. The second serving is a fun touch that makes the experience feel more generous than your typical restaurant. Service moved quickly, the atmosphere was lively. Overall, the steak is solid this experience is definitely worth checking out. read more

Dined at Medium Rare with friends from college and had a great evening. They had never dined here and they liked it very much, starting with the simple menu with only one question to answer: what temperature do you want your steak cooked. I convinced them to step down from medium well to medium and they appreciated that. Robert took our orders and we had time to catch up. This review is more about their feedback, given I have dined here perhaps a dozen times or more. They liked the rustic bread service with quality butter, so much that they asked for a refill. The thick crust with the soft and warm interior was most appreciated, along with their quality butter that melts slightly upon contact if they serve the bread hot. I find that bread goes well with cleaning the second plate of the steak sauce, which we tried to break down for its ingredients. They keep the sauce a secret. They appreciated the salad dressing, which was a bit more generous this time; though, the vinaigrette is sometimes a bit faint and sparse as to be barely detectable. This time the cherry tomatoes were also a bit more generous than average. The salad definitely benefits from the freshly ground pepper. They found the sliced steak and fries to be great. The fries are always a strong suit here and tgf steak certainly benefits from the secret sauce. That sauce also gives poutine with the fries. My friends devoured the key lime pie. Robert's service was great and the restaurant was busy on a Thursday night. Consistently a four star experience. read more

Do not skip this place! They have such great steak and fries. The ambiance is lowkey for a great date. You get a second refill for one price. It's definitely not as expensive as other places given you get seconds. It's not really kid friendly . But to be honest we made it work with our baby and squeezed in. Lastly the service is super fast. When you sit you are brought bread and soft butter. Then they bring out the salad a of course best for last, steak and fries. Drinks were good too! read more

Medium Rare - Award Winning Culotte Steak & Hand-cut Fries - Desserts Near Me - New York, New York

This is a prix-fixe menu where the only choice you'd have are the drink options and if you want dessert. For $35, you get a bread basket, a salad, and then two rounds of streak & fries with their special sauce. You are getting what you paid for, so don't expect this to be amazing. I also ordered a Pineapple Mule ($16), which was pretty decent. We also split a Hot Fudge Sundae ($12) for dessert, which definitely satisfied our sweet tooth. read more

My friend and I asked to split the bill 50/50z When the waiter brought our two separate receipts over, the suggested tip was 18% of both our meals combined vs just 1 person. I had noticed this when I got home because I tipped $12 as opposed to $6 on a $34.95 meal. I appreciated the service and food, but this is something the waitstaff should be ensuring doesn't happen when bringing checks to the table. I don't believe it was intentional, but it is unethical and strange. For this reason, I'm dropping 1 star. I really enjoyed the steak and fries here. I asked for mine medium rare and it was exactly that! The fries were thin and crispy in the best way. The sauce is like a salty gravy but I liked how it complimented the tender meat. The salad that you start with is decent. It could've used more dressing, but it was still good. They also give complimentary bread and butter with the meal, which you can ask for refills on. The service was quick and attentive. They bring you your second round of Steak Frites without you even having to ask! I think for the price, it's a solid amount of food and worth the visit. It's not the largest space, so I would recommend booking a reservation if you're a party of 4-6. read more

Came here with a group of five to celebrate a friend's birthday. The concept--two rounds of steak frites with bread and salad beforehand--is a familiar and appealing Parisian-style experience and sounds like a great value. Unfortunately, the steak itself was underwhelming and tasted a bit bland even with the sauce on the side, and the fries were soggy. The Malbec was enjoyable, and we shared carrot cake and chocolate cake for dessert, both of which we liked. A nice celebratory touch was the sparklers they brought out with the chocolate cake for my friend's birthday. Service was attentive and friendly throughout the evening. Total came out to about $98 per person. While the atmosphere and service were solid, the food--especially the steak--didn't quite live up to expectations for the overall amount paid. read more

What a fun idea for a quick, easy, & delicious well balanced meal!! We went in search of a steak dinner and ended up finding this place via TikTok! It was a fun experience in which there is only one thing on the menu, bread for the table, a salad, & then steak frites with their secret sauce! They asked how you want your steak cooked and brought it out shortly often! It was cooked to perfection and seasoned wonderfully! What makes it even better is, you automatically get a second helping so you better come hungry, because without even asking that immediate brought out a second helping of steak, fries & more sauce as soon as we finished our first helping! It was a very casual place and almost gave the feeling of a dive restaurant, as the music was a little loud, which did take away from the dining experience a bit but would highly recommend for a simple steak meal with great flavor! read more

I live close by to Medium Rare and finally decided to check out their deal for weekend brunch. For $39.95, you get bottomless drinks (mimosas, bloody Marys, or screwdrivers) and your choice of entree. The drinks were fine, not very strong, but that's expected for boozy brunch. I can't complain too much. The meal starts off with some warm bread and I got their signature mixed green salad. The salad was fresh although I think it was too overdressed. I got the steak and eggs for my entree which was just okay. The steak was cut too thin for my liking and was a bit tough. I also wish the portion size was a bit bigger. However, the eggs and fries were actually pretty good. Service was overall friendly and quick, even for the bottomless drinks. However, the acoustics of the restaurant leave much to be desired. Even though the restaurant was only half full, it was shockingly loud which made it very difficult to hold any decent conversation. The crowd definitely skews young, so just be aware. read more

We had the brunch option which was a prefix menu, and my friend who has been here previously and the one in DC said the dinner was actually better, in terms of the secret sauce and the hollandaise sauce. The secret sauce we experienced was quite mushroom flavored and felt leftover instead of freshly made. The service however was great and the bathroom was interestingly aux to french lessons LOL. I liked my sandwich w the eggs and chorizo but the sauce was very mid. The drinks were kinda cheap but it got the job done. Inside was spacious and had an interesting layout seating with some outside as well. read more

Medium Rare keeps it simple. In a city full of menus as long as a NewYorkTimes bestseller, this spot in Murray Hill does the opposite. One perfectly cooked steak, one thoughtfully seasoned green salad, one signature sauce and incredibly crisp shoestring fries. This place reminds you that when you focus on doing one thing, you do it exceptionally well and the experience speaks for itself. Because sometimes the best meals aren't about variety. They're about mastery. read more

Meeting friends for dinner after 5PM? Yes. Set Menu. Simple menu, not extensive (literally only need to decide how do you want your streak cooked)...Yes Cost for set Menu $35 - comes with artistian rustic bread basket, a simple salad, steak and fries...sure! Ambiance: slightly dark room... like you feel in a steak house...Yes. Welcome to Medium Rare! We got there around 5:30 and there were only 2 other tables with customers. We ordered the steak the way we liked it and our waitress, Megan, jot down the notes on the paper table cover. Thank you Megan for the great service. We were catching up so I only ate the warmish bread with butter. Salad came by I didn't eat it yet. The steak with brown sauce and thin fries were delivered next. We were wondering if we would be able to ask for more food. Obviously, I didn't check Yelp otherwise I would have found the answer. Yes, halfway through, Megan brought another serving of steaks and fries in a large pan and served it to us. I was talking so I didn't even start on my original plate so I asked Megan to put it on top of the steak on my plate. We ordered a carrot cake to share. I was a bit apprehensive since it's very rare to get a carrot cake that was moist and delicious. This hit the spot. $50 for each person for a nice evening out with friends wasn't bad. Note: we didn't order drinks, only food. When we leave the restaurant around 7PM, it was busy. We were full... good company... nice way to end the evening, couldn't ask for anything else. We walked to the train station to walk off the food coma. Go check it out. read more

That sauce, can't get enough. Made a reservation for Thursday at 6, not needed. Food came out super quick, almost too quick. We barely got through our salads when the steak came out and I didn't know where to put all my plates. The food is delicious, no question there. They will come around for your second serving and drop off extra sauce. If you can't finish the second serving, don't worry, they do to go boxes. read more

This was an incredible meal. Reservations are needed unless you want to try to eat after 9:30pm. Atmosphere is packed cozy. Once seated, service immediately started and we placed our drink orders. Server explained the set menu and brought the first course (bread). Steak frites were amazing. However, it's all about the SAUCE. Sauce was fire, so good that i even considered purchasing it online. Once you clear your first plate, they bring you a second serving of your steak frites and a tiny gravy jar for self serve. 10/10. Steak was cooked perfectly. Fries were perfect and crispy. You will not regret it. read more

We came here for a birthday dinner and left a little underwhelmed. The steak servings were small and cut in a way that made them look like more than they really were.

I was very excited to try this place and it didn't disappoint! I was craving steak frites and this place scratched that. 4/5 because i believe there are some areas they could improve on but not much. Went here and it wasn't busy so we got a seat right away. We opted to sit outside and the weather was great. One thing though, i wished they were a little more attentive to the people seated outside. Other than that the service was not bad at all. My favorite part of the meal would have to be the salad. They were delicious! The steak frites were yummy, could be better but i enjoyed it. (You get 2 rounds) We ordered the apple pie as well and that was amazing! Not too sweet but i expected more vanilla ice scream for the size of the slice. Overall a great experience. read more

Service - great. Was busy but responsive when needed water / extra gravy etc. given limited menu it was a quick turnaround for tables. Would make reservation if larger party given the seize (easily can accommodate 8-10 people) - ambiance: clean, dimly lit - food: total steal for $34. Unlimited bread + salad (1 plate no refills) and fries + steak (1 refill). Bread was okay. Salad was standard. Steak was thinly cut but well cooked. Wasn't the best steak but it was great for the price. Fries were perfect. Good for a quick but filling meal that doesn't break the bank. But you can't spend 2-3 there. They have wine at $12/ glass and multiple desserts. Would check out given the price point. read more

Ate here today by myself on a warm and sunny Sunday afternoon without a reservation and they said it's fine and gave me the warm welcome with a smile and I decided to eat outdoors. I had brought and ordered the complimentary bread and salad as an appetizer, 2 rounds of medium rare thinly cut steaks as an entree ($34.95) with fries and steak sauce and key lime pie ($12) for dessert at an affordable price that it tasted really good, mouth watering and delicious. The service there was also attentive, pleasant and friendly that the ambiance felt calm and relaxed. I couldn't agree more about it and thanked my server Joe for everything. Finally, I would definitely eat and come back again next time! :D read more

Unlimited steak and fries how can you go wrong? The menu is simple not much to choose from , you have 2 choices steak and fries or grilled portobello mushrooms for the vegetarian . The steak was tender and the fries were hot and crispy, but the sauce was what made the meal perfect. It took the steak to another level. For dessert we shared the 6 layer carrot cake and it didn't disappoint. It was delicious and moist and the icing was too sweet. Did I mention the hibiscus margarita? Now this refreshing drink was everything. One sip and I felt like I was on vacation. I can see myself coming back again. read more

My friend and I had dinner here the first week they opened. We decided to eat outside because it was still outdoor dining weather. The menu is simple and I love it. We started off with the bread and butter. The salad came after followed by the main course we couldn't wait for! We both ordered the steak medium rare (obviously) and the fries were also super tasty. Our waiter checked up on us numerous times and was very helpful. Of course we were tempted to get dessert so we got the ice cream sundae. Definitely worth sharing because it is HUGE! read more

For value steak & fries places, I think this place is a winner. Their salad and salad dressing is on point with crispy greens and fresh mini tomatoes. Their fries could be slightly more crunchy, but the steak was cooked exactly medium rare and the way it should be compared to other chains that refuse to do medium rare (entrecote). I'd definitely come back since it was well executed and as I hoped it would be. read more

34.95 for Steak (Prefix Menu ) Only 1 thing on the menu , love the concept. You basically tell them how you like it cooked (temperature). We went on a Thursday and it was super packed at 7pm. I guess you can't go wrong for the price. My friend was vegetarian, I know this wasn't the place for her. But they did have a Grilled Portobello Mushroom with a Fire Roasted Red Pepper Sauce, but she didn't really like it. But again it's a steak house , I loved mine. I got mine medium rare and their secret house sauce was amazing. She ended up trying like 3 desserts and the sundae was the best out of all. Nevertheless, amazing spot with shocking price. 34.95 comes with Bread , Salad and 2 rounds of Steak . Service - 5/10 was a bit slow for me but I'll give them the benefit of doubt.

Restaurant had nice date night vibes but it was a little loud for minimal customers. Somehow the waiter and staff conversing with each other was louder than anyone else which was quite disturbing. For the food, we ordered the only thing on the menu which was a medium rare steak with fries. Sadly it was very meh. I wasn't crazy about the steak or fries. It was mediocre at best. Idk what was award winning about it. read more

service here is impeccable. my server was insanely kind, quick and responsive. he was quite funny as well. probably my favorite part of the restaurant. the overall ambiance was sort of quirky and homey? they gave out a mad lib and bazooka at the end but the overall dining experience is more formal. there were jokes scattered throughout the restaurant as well. food here was solid, my second order of fries were soggy compared to my perfectly crisped fries from the first batch. the sauce wasn't my favorite though, it was similar to the taste of both the fries and steak and didn't bring a new element to the flavor. overall the food was quite one noted- usually the peppercorn sauce helps add some spice or another profile to help exhausting the very savory flavor profile but it just had a savory flavor in general. steak itself was good- for the price it's cooked perfectly and tastes great! the pineapple mule wasn't my favorite though, way too sweet and wasn't too refreshing. overall solid joint and am excited to try some similar spots to compare the quality. great bang for your buck and solid food. they do come out with seconds without asking, even if you haven't finished your first plate if you're wondering. they'll give you a box if you request too. read more

Overall I really enjoyed medium rare. We came here on a weeknight with a reservation and we are seated immediately. I didn't realize until we arrived that it has a fixed priced menu model, but I found the prices really reasonable for the amount and quality of food you get! While there are plenty of extremely fancy and much pricier steak restaurants around New York, if you aren't looking for that level of a luxury experience medium rare is a really great option! It is great for a date night or even for a big group dinner where you want to keep pricing under control! Will definitely be back! read more

Understandably, this location is new, so it seems as if there's a few kinks they need to sort out in order to thrive. Positives: Our waiter, I wish I had gotten his name, was so sweet, energetic, and got the dinner started on a positive note. Immediately upon being seated he approached the table to introduce himself & tell us about the restaurant - that they only served one item & all he needed to know was how we liked our steak cooked. I absolutely loved his energy and throughout the whole dinner he was attentive and constantly checking on us from afar. The steak itself is great quality, and the fries were perfectly crispy and nicely salted, probably my favorite part of the meal! Negatives: Though our waiter was amazing, it seemed as if the rest of the restaurant was in disarray (which again, understandable since this is a new location.) We sat down in an empty area and were able to watch the seats surrounding us get filled as time went on, but eventually noticed that those who had gotten seated after us were getting their food, while we remained with an empty table. Minutes passed and we noticed about 5 tables, all whom had been seated 15+ minutes after us, all received their steak, and then their second plate, all while we were waiting. Our kind waiter was not at fault as I did notice him panicking from afar and constantly checking the kitchen for our food, so something did seem lost in translation there. The gimmick to this restaurant is you get your plate of steak & fries, finish it, and they "surprise" you with a second helping (half of the first plate of steak.) My order was medium rare, as I felt it was necessary due to the restaurant name, and my first plate was perfectly cooked. My second serving however was more on the rare side and not even warm - just cold, rare steak. I didn't even want to send the meal back as I was afraid I would never get my second helping of food at the rate the staff was working. There were multiple points in time where staff approached our table to give us more salad and more plates of steak, which was a mistake on their end, causing them to stop mid offering and just run off to another table. To someone unaware that this restaurant limits you to two servings (while competitors provide unlimited) they would definitely be disappointed/shocked/confused with the service received. The steak is good, the sauce was tasty, and for $35 it seems like a wonderful deal! With the service and steak portion size (steak was sliced incredibly thin, just making it seem as if the portion is large with the number of slices), I just would rather making this meal at home, at least until they figure out how to make their operation a bit smoother. read more

Came here after seeing a IG clip saying that its AYCE steak & fries for $35. Fortunately I did read some google reviews before coming that mention it is not AYCE, but in fact just the second serving is complimentary. Now when you see the portion size, you will realize that this is a complete gimmick. The serving size is half a serving! But it gets worse. We came during the brunch, and the menu just listed $40 for bottomless mimosas (or other select drinks) + steak & fries. The waiter mentioned you can get just the steak & fries for $30, so we elected to do that. Turns out though that during brunch there is no complimentary second serving. So you are paying for half a serving! I asked if I could just pay extra for the dinner price and get the 2nd serving. But was told this would be an extra $15. Now I do seem to remember from elementary school that 35 - 30 = 5, but maybe times have changed. As for the food quality, the steak was decent and well cooked. There just wasn't enough. The fries were extremely salty though... I had to cover them with ketchup to drown out the salt. Ive been to Le Relais de Venise in Paris (not the NYC location) twice, which this place is clearly copying... And that steak is better. Also they give the second serving even at lunch. Normally I would give this a 3 star, but given that I suspect that they are behind the false advertising on IG, I will give 2 stars to at least partially offset that. On the plus side, service is very friendly! read more

The food itself was very disappointing. The steak was low quality and reminded me of Applebees. The fries were especially soggy and do not seem fresh. The service was fine. The crowd that visits this restaurant seems to be fresh graduates so the environment is pretty loud. They are known for serving a free second plate after you finish the first but know that the portion is small. I ended up paying $90 for 2 people after tax and tips which is not worth it considering the quality here is the same as chain fast dinning restaurants. read more

This place is fairly new, but they must have gotten word out through social media or word of mouth bc they had a lot of foot traffic. Many people are coming and going, in and out of the restaurant. They only have walk-ins, which was fine, and no reservations can be made. But there are plenty of seats available inside and outside. There's different types of music playing from the 90s to the present. The workers inside were very nice. Especially our server, Santiago, who was very entertaining and friendly. He cracked us up a few times. Just know that it's a straight-up price of $35 per person for a pre fixed meal. It includes 2 servings of the steak fries, a bread basket, and a salad. Drinks and dessert aren't included. The steak comes with gravy, and the fries are shoe string. Still had room for dessert, so we ordered the apple pie, which came with vanilla ice cream. Overall, everything was just alright, so I'm not sure I would like to go back again. Maybe if I'm on a budget. read more

Pretty good priced steak meal in Manhattan. Ofc not the best quality steak and realistically, even with "two portions" - it's not a lot of steak. It's cut into very very thin slices and you get about 6-8 thin slices per serving. But the steak was tender, fries were crispy and well salted. Bread was okay, the butter was cold and not spreadable. The salad was good! The sauce on the steak was very good. For some reason, they mistakenly thought we already got two servings when we only had one and cleared all our plates after the first one. They were very quick to bring new plates and more food though! The ice cream sundae was huge for $12, very shareable. Loved all the toppings! read more

I went here for brunch and it was just okay, but not great. We had a big party of 11 people. I have to say our server was amazing. They were very friendly, welcoming, and on top of their game. I would give 5 stars to the server if I could. Unfortunately I cannot say the same for the quality of the food. There are only a few entrees to choose from for bottomless brunch, which is fine. But I guess you get what you pay for, for only $40. The bread wasn't great, the coffee was fine, mimosa was fine (but can you really mess up a mimosa?), and the yogurt parfait was fine. I got the steak frites, and as others have mentioned here, the portions were very small. The steak was cooked correctly, but sliced very thin, and it wasnt a high quality melt in your mouth "omg this is so amazing" kind of steak. It was just meh, kinda disappointing. And I missed that the menu said it came with sauce on it, I would have gotten it on the side because it was very salty and unnecessary. The fries were ok. But again, it's only $40, but if you are trying to satisfy a steak craving (like I was), I wouldn't suggest this place. Overall this place was just okay. I probably wouldnt go back since there are so many other steak places to try in NYC. Forgot to mention: their chocolate fudge cake was really great. Their chorizo was absolutely horrible, didn't even taste like chorizo, gross. read more

4.5 stars but will round up to 5 since our server Louisa was so nice! The proposition is nicely toasted bread, a decent salad, and some steak frites for $35.

Also be advised that it is TWO servings of steak frites, and not AYCE like some of the instagram/tiktok ads!
