Conch VJanuary 17, 2013The cellar is Amazing, the upstairs room more romantic , but any place is a great historic piece of America
Jenna SalsedoAugust 23, 2012Classic NY. If you can get yourself down to the secret wine cellar- you won't be disappointed.
JoleneDecember 23, 2012Sit under Mark Ingram's Heisman-winning helmet in the right dining room or Joe Namath's Jets' helmet in the middle towards the back. ROLL TIDE!- Donna LehmanDecember 23, 2009Iconic New York restaurant with history. Super service, and great people watching opp. Champagne, duck, foie gras for me - steak tartar for hubby. Loved it.

Lauren HansenMarch 29, 2015Expensive, but worth going once during restaurant week. Glad we checked it off our list but won't be coming back
John David OlsenNovember 20, 2011The burger's are amazing. Ask to sit by the fireplace and grad a drink in the big red chairs.
The Daily MealFebruary 22, 2011Old New York glamour meets modern, chic cuisine. Don't leave without trying the cheesecake (and take a piece home with you!) Read more
Abby T.September 24, 2010Cool history, plenty to look at if your company's boring, and the garlickiest Caesar salad on the planet. I love it that way.
The Corcoran GroupNovember 6, 2010Old New York glamour – gentlemen must wear a jacket and no jeans allowed. The service is amazing. Try the ‘21’ Burger.
Amy KMarch 8, 2014I wouldn't say their food is out of this world but their customer service is impeccable!

Carrie HojnickiAugust 1, 2010You can't get history like this anywhere else. And not to mention extraordinary food and service. A truly incredible place.
Lauren SheplandJanuary 10, 2012I like to make thongs out of the beef tartar. Great for late night snacks, bad for dodging wolves.
Ingrid NagyMay 7, 2014So they shift you downstairs feel its dishonest when you book for upstairs - not experience to make you come back
WildHorsesDecember 1, 2013Food was ho-hum on Thanksgiving Day. One of my companions said their cafeteria food was better at prep school. Even the apple pie (not pumpkin - huh?) tasted like something from the grocery store.
Harumi UApril 1, 2015It is an institution and food isn't bad but service can be hit and miss and they come after you until they confirm that you checked in coat...
EsquireJanuary 31, 2011Congratulations, you've found one of Esquire's Best Bars in America. We highly recommend getting a Southside.

Gabriella TutinoMay 27, 2011The prix fixe menu is a pretty good deal. For $40, the food is delicious!

Kim NolanJune 17, 2010only come here when someone else is treating you! you will want it all....so make sure you can order it all!
michael nerenburgAugust 1, 2011Phil Collins had an album called No Jacket Required. I wish this place had the same policy. its stupid to make people eat here in jacket. It's 2011, attract a hipper crowd

"Controversially, I didn't actually enjoy the Brisket Sandwich. However, I loved everything on the 'raw bar' menu! Great grilled fish (Skate) too, and a good wine list (esp the Santorini)."
