Have not had a piece of meat like this in my travels. A bit expensive, but enjoyed every bite of the dream meat. Sides are OK, skip the french fries. Shrimp was excellent and the apple dessert was grand. more

SERVICE From the time we arrived, everyone associated with the restaurant - the bartender, the maitre d, the surly woman at the cash register (yeah, no credit cards here) and our waiter - all acted like they were doing us a favor by waiting on us. No hello, no welcome, no "thank you for coming" Service was frenzied. Less than... more

Upon arrival, we’ve been seated promptly. This was our first time at Peter Lugers. We ordered tomato “salad” (One large tomato sliced into 5 slices - $12.00). I know they claim it is a special grown tomato. Sorry, my husband and I didn’t notice anything special about it, very average tasting tomato. We also ordered spinach and steak for 2.... more

Went here during my NY trip because I love steak and I had to go to the legendary Peter Luger. Made reservations 1 month in advance and still did not get an optimal time, but 9:45pm worked out anyway. The restaurant is in the middle of a ghetto in Brooklyn, which is seedy at best during the night if you... more

My title says it all. I'm a big steak lover and I make every effort to try the most talked about, recommended, notorious ones out there. I came to NY for the first time from 12 time zones away and top on my list was to hunt for good steak. I had a friend who strong recommended Peter Luger, claiming... more

No joke, this is the finest steak I have ever had. We ordered the steak for 4, medium-rare. The steak was brought out on a sizzling plate, dripping with juice. It was slightly charred on the outside, and beautifully red and pink on the inside. Imagine a meat jawbreaker, with the thin well done layer on the outside, which seperates... more

Went to NY last week and being a big steak fan wanted to eat at the best place I could find. I had read many reviews for lots of steak houses before settling on Luger's. I was slightly concerned by some of the ones I had read in regards to the service people had received there and went there hoping... more

With my second trip to Peter Luger my first impressions were confirmed. If you love Portehouse steaks, you simply must try it. If you prefer other cuts or require a higher end ambience there are plenty of other fine choices in NYC. But for a porterhouse, bacon and a few stiff drinks, Peter Luger is your place...just be sure to... more
