| The "three-piece-suit crowd" and other "old-boy network" members gather at this "riotous" Financial District steakhouse for "mouthwatering" "perfectly charred" beef; "efficient service" overcomes "ho-hum ambiance", and helps justify the "amazingly" "dear prices." |

| These "dependable" chophouses keep bobbing along, adding two branches (in the Financial District and West Midtown) in the past year; their "thick, chewy" steaks, mega–wine lists and "no-attitude" service make for "serviceable" dining, with one unexpected bonus: Downtowns "magnificent" bank-vault room. |

| "Its not hard to imagine robber barons" supping at this circa-1827 Financial District "legend" known for its "superior steaks", "excellent" service and "old-world" setting; its "best when someone else is paying", but young turks tout the "affordable bar menu." |

| "Uncrowded and underappreciated", this Financial District steakhouse offers the chance to rub elbows with "out-of-town big shots" staying at the Ritz; the "pricey" preparations are "beautifully presented" by a "classy" staff, and its especially good for "business gatherings." |
