it's not part of any schtick and it's not the norm in NYC steakhouses or any other NYC restaurant. Just like in any other part of the country, just don't be a moron customer, don't complain about the prices being more than your local Arbys or Outback and don't try to order wine by the glass from a bottle that costs $500. And again, don't order a well done steak lol

Not every steakhouse is the same in NYC, I go to different restaurants based on the occasion - date night? probably Del Friscos, out with the guys? probably Gallaghers - tourist friends in town for the first time? probably Sparks - Special nights - Lugers or Keens; Friends want overpriced touristy - BLT steak or similar. There are different strokes for different folks. |

Just as an aside a Ex maitre d of PL opened a steal house not to far from us in 1999. We've been there several times since we started coming down here in 2011. Great food, Great service and nice German atmosphere. They make the best Steak Tartar I have ever had.

But in all seriousness, there is a very very high percentage of non-Ny'ers living an working in NYC. So when you run into an asshole, just because there presence is currently in NYC, they could be joe asshole from Paris, or Amsterdam, or some place in jersey, or boston, or London or Frankfurt, etc etc. or even NYC, yes, but you can't label everyone an asshole just "because" especially when you've been here twice... just sayin' This isn't a rip on non-nyer's, but you folks that live in small cities/towns have no clue or appreciation for living/working in a city that people dream of visiting just once, let alone live or work here. No one ever wakes up in some small town in the EU and says "i know i've made it when i get a job or can live in Whogivesa****land in Podunk USA", they dream of living in NYC, London, Paris, etc.... And if you don't agree, that's cool, it's not for everyone but don't shit on those that do. |

Yes, it's named Wolfgangs, it's on Park Ave. It's pretty much a carbon copy of Lugers right down to the schlagg

oh, and I will admit, yes, the subways smell like a toilet, and no one enjoys that.

I've been to New York City several times and the people were very friendly.
I did leave before it got dark, though. |

I also considered just ordering their steak online, since it's dried aged, etc...price is still crazy.
Anyone know of an online place for similar dry aged steak that won't break the bank? |
