vega eric: Get the cream spinach and the fries as your sides with your steak for 2. For the appetizer get the tomatoes and onions and put steak sauce on it. Delicious. For desert get cheese cake with wip cream.
Village Voice: You will be admonished if you order your steak anything other than rare, so it's best to just let the kitchen take control. For sides, creamed spinach, onion rings, & German fried potatoes are a must.
Saarim Zaman: Maybe the best meal in NYC. Start with the bacon and the onion and tomato salad, get the steak rare, some creamed spinach on the side, and finish it off with a hot fudge sundae.

Harrison Weber: Steak + spinach + cauliflower + potatoes = amazing. I don't even like creamed spinach. I love it here.
Claire J Song: Most carnivorous patrons go for the faultless $16 hanger steak, but New York strip, and tomahawk rib eye cuts are also available. Creamed spinach and thick-cut bacon are familiar sides
Zach Guizar: Phenomenal "hanger" steak. Mashed potatoes amazing. I will be talking about this place for forever. 2006 Sonoma Valley Pinot Noir compliments well.

Jon Steinback: for brunch, the creamed spinach eggs hollandaise is amazing. add crab if you're feeling extra ambitious. or lobster if you wear a rose gold apple watch.
Village Voice: Try the Milk Punch. A different, but delicious drink with brandy, rum, coriander seeds, and Jasmine tea, which makes for a floral and earthy fusion of flavors.
The New Yorker: "Many of the dishes are downright heavy, oddly wintery for an end-of-summer meal by the water. Which is not to say that the results aren’t frequently, even disconcertingly, satisfying." Read more.
