One of the best steaks I’ve had in my life and I’ve been to many good steakhouses around NY. The steak was the star of the show. It was evenly cooked, even on the ends, had a perfect char, and we ordered medium rare and blood didn’t spew out - so they let it rest properly. Also, the presentation is great - the waiter gave us a choice of 5 different steak knives to choose from and he explained each one with detail. The tater tots are not traditional with a crispy outside. They were more of a mashed tot and we were pleasantly surprised. Mushrooms were great as well - good variety and well seasoned. We ended with the pavlova for dessert. We also loved the popover service. Fluffy and crispy with a nice sprinkling of cheese on top. Also, service was amazing. Our waiter was friendly, energet

We dined at Barclay Prime with a group of seven and had an exceptional experience. Yes, the food and drinks are expensive—but absolutely worth it for the quality and service. We started with shrimp cocktails, crab cakes, and broiled bone marrow, all of which were outstanding. For mains, our group ordered a variety ranging from salads to Chilean sea bass, filet mignons, and American Wagyu, and every dish was cooked perfectly and full of flavor. The sides were just as impressive: truffle mac and cheese, sautéed spinach, whipped potatoes, and glazed Brussels sprouts—each one delicious and meant to be shared. What truly elevated the experience was our server, Matthew. He was attentive, friendly, and professional. We never had to ask for water, and he always checked in about drinks before ou

First time here and had a wonderful experience. I went with seven other people. Our server Glenn was fantastic. The food was excellent. We were given freshly baked popovers, which was amazing. We all asked for a 2nd refill. I had the scallops appetizer and the American Wagyu filet mignon (medium). We ordered sides: brussel sprouts, broccolini, whipped potatoes, and spinach, which were all delicious. It is on the more expensive side but I would definitely come back.

I had the BEST ribeye steak and creme brulee I've ever had here. That texture and flavor of that steak was just incredible. I got the 40 day dry aged steak and I will remember that steak for the rest of my life. It was so cool they let you choose out of a case of knives which knife you want to use too. It felt like picking a sword from a legendary armory!

Went to celebrate my buddy’s 47 birthday tonight it was by far the best restaurant I’ve ever been to. When the waiter goes over the menu they go over the three different types of categories for the types of steak they serve. I ordered an old fashioned because that’s one of my drinks of choice, for an appetizer I had the seared foie gras with apple, pecans with a caramel sauce. If you order a steak before they present to you a tray of knifes to choose from, I chose the knife from France. For my main course I had a 8 oz filet mignon cooked medium rare a lobster tail au poivre sauce and potatoes gratin. Unfortunately I couldn’t get dessert because I was full. I will definitely be going back to Barclay Prime in the future because it is now my favorite restaurant.
