Welcome to My Recommended New York City Steakhouses

The Good, The Better and The Best

       

Admittedly, I was never a fan of steak or steakhouses. The meat tended never to be done the way I wanted it - medium rare would be too bloody, medium would be overcooked. I had come to think that my tastebuds differed somewhat from all the people who raved about steak and paid exorbitant prices to eat at those uppity institutions called steakhouses.

That is, until I came to New York.
I was re-introduced to the concept of steakhouses by a friend; a New Yorker born and bred. He knew his steaks indeed. A few days after touching down in JFK, he brought me to experience what a real New York steakhouse should be like. I cannot think of a more appropriate or better symbol of that than Peter Luger's in Brooklyn. On hindsight perhaps it was not a good idea to try the best first, because every subsequent steak seemed a bit of a disappointment.

Nonetheless I have taken the liberty to rank the top 10 steakhouses in New York City (this is purely my opinion). I have already revealed my number one choice, but I continue down the ranks with an evaluation system based on personal experience, recommendations from friends, and the opinions of people I believe are pretty much experts when it comes to anything to do with steak.
