I went to the famous Peter Luger steakhouse in Brooklyn, and honestly, the food quality was excellent. We ordered a few different cuts to try them out, along with the burger, which I’d seen highly recommended. As expected, the meat was top-tier full of flavor and cooked to perfection. It met all my expectations, as did the burger. A special shout out goes to the French fries; they were spectacular. Obviously, you come here for the steak, but the fries were on another level. While I have nothing but praise for the food, the service didn't come close to what you'd expect from such a famous restaurant. The waiters are almost rude to you, as if it’s part of the 'style' of the place, which I just don't get. You have everything you need to be the best, yet you fail at customer service. In short, I think the price to quality ratio is fair, and the food/portions are very generous.

We found it worth the hype. Have had reservations for a few weeks. Sat right down when we got there. The service isn’t fast, means it isn’t rushed either, so sit and enjoy. Our server wasn’t overly friendly, but very efficient, didn’t feel rushed like in lots of restaurants. The steak was incredible. Fries, asparagus and the wedge salad were also delicious. The kid described the signature bacon as “meat butter”, also amazing.

The steak is phenomenal in every sense. The dry age is perfect and the seasoning is just right. It truly is a quality steak. The portions on the salads, appetizers, and sides are large enough to share. The German hash browns were particularly delightful. The atmosphere is somewhat stale and the service is good, not great. Overall, one of my favorite New York steakhouses.

Excellent experience. One of the best steaks I've ever had. We did feel a little rushed but service was still great. We got the steak for 2 and was amazing. Really need to order it rare or medium rare its still going to cook in the butter once it's on your table. I know it seems over the top but spooning the butter over the meat takes it to another level. Can't go wrong with the German potatoes and finished it off with some cheesecake. Had several cocktails and a beer all were very good as well. For how well known and rated the place is prices weren't super crazy but you will spend 200 to 300 for 2 people. I would definitely come back again or at least try the one in Vegas.

What a great experience!! I recently had the pleasure of dining at Peter Luger while visiting my son in NYC. We did jit gave reservations the evening we dined however we did arrive earlier in the evening. We shared a house salad and tried the bacon to start. The salad was perfect as a start to our meal, simple yet fresh and delicious. The main course was absolutely amazing. The steak was cooked to perfection and just melted on your tongue. We enjoyed our server Mr Lou immensely who added some fun to our meal. Nothing beats spending time with those you love especially when the time you get is limited and spending a bit of that time with a bottle of champagne and a delicious steak and great service is appreciated. This experience was a treat I won’t forget and I hope to repeat on another visit to the city.
