Chi NguyenMay 6, 2014order the bone in ribeye cooked rare! perfectly salted, almost too salty maybe but great after drinking a few drinks!- Arda KaraJuly 25, 2021The fish and the vegetables are better than the steak if you are comfortable with having that kind of opinion
Butcher’s steak is absolutely amazing. Also the whole brined chicken! Lots more
Brunch is 100% the move. Plenty of room, no wait, full menu, AND you get the patty melt.
Rich KearneyJanuary 13, 2013I don't know that it's one of the two or three best restaurants in Wburg as many reviews suggest, but it is very solid.
Kevin ChupkaApril 14, 2017The butcher's steak was delicious -- the sweet tea brined chicken was OUT OF THIS WORLD
Katie LennsMarch 20, 2012Butcher's Cut steak might be the best steak I've ever had. Chocolate Caramel pot de creme is delicious and not too much food for dessert!
SO DAMN GOOD. get the butchers steak and veal and spinach gratin and mashed potatoes. LOVE THIS PLACE SO MUCH.
JeffreyJuly 20, 2014Chicken or fish good, but you can still get what is the most baffling beefsteak bargain in town, the estimable butcher’s steak, for a paltry $16.
Kevin LaMannaMay 18, 2014Good place with a good menu. The short hostess/ manager needs to go. She's extremely aggressive and is a bit of an embarrassment.
Irene ChungJuly 2, 2013Excellent steak and sides. Loved the tomato burrata salad. Simple but delightful.
markus gerdemannJanuary 27, 2016The strip steak is awesome! And so is the grilled avocado and the carrots!
Secret- come for brunch. No wait and just as delicious food. Croque monte cristo was to die for
Justin KalifowitzSeptember 5, 2012Butcher steak + Lobster Mushrooms (veg). Avoid the absurdly difficult to operate bottle of Eli Miller Seltzer. Tables are easy to snag at 7, impossible by 7:15.
The Fette Hash is delicious. Might be World Cup influence, but it was empty on Sunday afternoon.
Village VoiceSeptember 12, 2013Get the patty melt and add an egg to it for a twist to the classic burger.
An excellent collection of sometimes obscure wines. Ask for suggestions - and they won't oversell...
Harrison WeberAugust 14, 2014Steak + spinach + cauliflower + potatoes = amazing. I don't even like creamed spinach. I love it here.
Maybelle GruberJuly 6, 2013Everything our party of 4 ordered was delicious, but be forewarned... It's like a sauna in that restaurant!
rye LACESeptember 12, 2022The Bacon is amazing! Also recommend the Biscuits broccoli and of course the steak.
Mager MagerSeptember 23, 2012The fried mashed potatoes will make you melt. The butcher steak is blue collar and white collar.
- Serena DavidsonApril 5, 2019Steak, chicken, everything is amazing!! Atmosphere is great, absolute must to visit.
Danielle AshbyOctober 5, 2013Love this place. You can't go wrong with what you order. Veal flank is great!
butcher steak. one of the best cuts of meat i've had in my life. long beans. grilled sardine appetizer. soo soo good.
Their butcher steak is just as good as the reviews make it out to be. The cauliflower is the "steak of veggies."
The truffle mashed potatoes, halloumi salad, and steak are great.
Easily the best restaurant in the neighborhood right now. Get the hanger steak and truffle mash potatoes.
Jessica AprilSeptember 15, 2011The lamb chop for $39 is worth every penny. It's big enough for two people to share with a few sides+apps.
Serious EatsSeptember 15, 2013Neighborhood cocktail bar with a food menu centering on hefty portions of grilled meat.
Kika GMay 30, 2012Butcher steak FTW. Bibb Salad. Fried Mash potatoes. Get a bottle of the Pinot Noir Rose!
Mike BodgeApril 4, 2013Share a steak or lambs saddle, some veggies, and a potato dish. Wash it down with enough wine on tap to ignore your giant bill.
Michael GoldsheftJuly 22, 2012Sit at the bar. Get the butcher steak and the eggplant and clams and peppers and potatoes.
Always busy, so try popping in on a cold/rainy night. Then, pony up for the axe-handle ribeye & do battle.
OutwithBabyDecember 29, 2015Unsurprisingly, no high chairs, but surprisingly other babies and kids. Come at 5pm or risk a very long wait.
