PaddyMarch 16, 2018Very interesting Japanese import to NYC. Stand-up, dinner for 1 steak place. Cut and cooked (weight and temp) to order sirloin, ribeye or filet with limited sides. Deliciously done. Definitely a hit!Upvote5Downvote
ZenFoodsterApril 29, 2018Steaks are “wet-aged” for 40+ days. Sirloin was tastier & leaner than Ribeye, which was 1/4 fat. Gals: opt for 8-10 oz & Ikinari sauce (a lil’ goes a long way). No need for sides if U get rice.

嘉豪 徐July 28, 2018First time? Go Rib Eye 14oz!I've had this in Japan every time and the U.S. location retains its high quality towards selection and taste of the beef!Still tad pricey, but you get what you pay for!

TomMarch 20, 2018Order steak by the cut and the pound. This location seems to be much less busy than their other locations. The food is just as good.
Upvote1Downvote- ZenFoodsterApril 29, 2018Corn+onions come w/ steaks. Get small radish salad+potatoes or 1 garlic rice (barely enuff for 2). Mix pepper+onion dressings for salad. Head to back section for real table instead of hi-tops up front

Marjorie CMarch 10, 2018Food is pretty tasty but the service leaves much to be desired and inefficient. Order your meat and some sides at the counter but the rest from your semi-apathetic waitresses.

Jacqueline ChanMay 4, 2019So sad that this place has gone downhill so quickly. Steak was grilled in pieces like a kebab. Charred on the outside and like leather inside. Grumpy overworked staff. I will never return again.

Severely understaffed, rude service, and no on site management.UpvoteDownvote

"The original is the best classic steakhouse in the world. Prime rib with bone in and creamed spinach."
