"New York’s most storied steakhouse (in operation since 1887) serves up an amazingly tender porterhouse cut. Reservations essential; cash or debit card only." Full review
"Peter Luger lets the steaks speak for themselves, and it works: the chain, including this tavern-like Williamsburg location, is consistently voted the best steakhouse in NYC." Full review
"Defining macho since 1887. Simply put, this is where you eat steak in NYC."
"A New York institution serving “the discerning steak connoisseur” since 1887. Try their out-of-this-world meat."

"Andrew Carmellini's homage to American cuisine is really an encapsulation of recent food and dining trends... And it all works well at this SoHo restaurant." Full review
"Andrew Carmellini (also behind Tribeca’s buzzed-about Locanda Verde) hits all the right notes at this platonic ideal of the American bistro." Full review
"Chef Andrew Carmellini's "delish" riffs on American dishes draw "trendsetters" to this "fashionable" SoHo "winner"." Full review
Star
"Locally sourced produce and seasonal salads accompanying steaks, shellfish, hefty sandwiches, flavourful chilli, fried chicken and freshly baked pies."

"Carmellini does his best work with the gamier meats like squab, which he serves with seared foie gras, or pecan duck with dirty rice." Full review
"Here is where you want to be right now, all of you who care about good food and the theater of eating it." Full review
"Like the diverse crowd, the food—from virtuoso Andrew Carmellini—is eclectic: His rollicking menu reflects our increasingly free-form eating habits." Full review
Critic's Pick
"The big-ticket, gut-busting dish to have at the Dutch is the beautifully charred eighteen-ounce New York strip steak." Full review
"Fried chicken (lunch and late-night menus only) with fresh biscuits... steaks aged in-house and a daily rotation of both sweet and savory pies do right by their largely clichéd categories." Full review
