50 Best Steakhouses near Jersey City

“This place is so romatic and the staff and food are great. We left happy and ready to return soon.“

“Great Food, Great Service Great Atmosphere. So we were bummed when we saw they closed the original location because how much we loved the place. We were relieved when they announced they were opening up in a much more appropriate and highly upgraded venue. This was perfect timing for us to celebrate our 9 year anniversary here. Upon arriving the inside captures the comfort and style of the Livingston location and then improves upon it with the beautiful outside seating area. Now onto the food which is just as good if not better than the original location im glad to see the quality has remained consistent. My steak was cooked to perfection and my wifes pasta dish was packed with quality flavor. The drink menu was definitely brought to the next level as well everything seemed like it was fine tuned and everything we tried was on point and had its own unique delicious flavor profile. Andy behind the bar was very knowledgeable and an absolute pleasure to talk to about the different cocktails. For dessert we shared the tiramisu which was great it wasn't youre traditional kind but we loved the spin they put on it with the cake and ice-cream. Lastly for service Jonathan took amazing care of us and made our special day very memorable along with the rest of the staff. Everyone that came by the table was professional and had a smile on their face. They all seemed happy and took pride in their work which was nice to see. We will definitely be returning in the future. I implore anyone that reads this to visit and support this wonderful place.“

“From appetizers to dessert everything was amazing. The food was cooked perfectly and staff was great. Loved the calamari and the steak was cooked to perfection. The atmosphere was inviting unlike larger restaurants. The staff was very attentive and friendly. The owner came around and made sure everything was to your satisfaction. Will definitely be going back very soon.“

“I took my son to Empire Steak House for his 15th birthday, and overall it was a great experience. The service was amazing, attentive, welcoming, and made the night feel special from start to finish. The sides, mashed potatoes and baked potato, were just okay and could've used more flavor, even with butter, salt, and pepper. But the steak... absolutely incredible. Easily one of the best steaks in the city. Definitely a spot I'd return to for the quality of the meat and top-tier service.“

“We lived in nyc for 30 years. Recently moved to DE. God only knows how much we miss the nyc culture. Nothing holds a candle to it. Thank you Aaron for such a delightful lunch today at your restaurant. Best Manhattan I’ve had in a long long time! You were so attentive and accommodating. Service the best! Thank the kitchen for the great food also! Will be back soon with our nephew and his spouse!“

“Visited on Wednesday night to celebrate mine and my husbands wedding that day and as soon as we walked in we were greeted by lovely friendly staff. We were seated quickly and were introduced to our server. The atmosphere was amazing and the food was fantastic. We opted for the Korean bacon to start and we both had the butchers feast. Outstanding. The steak was beautiful and the dishes that came with it were amazing too. The short rib and egg soufflé were my favourite. Thank you for letting us celebrate our wedding day in your restaurant.“

“My first visit to King of Meat
at a friend’s recommendation. Our waiter Rowin was attentive, accommodating and made the experience delightful. We came at 6:30pm on a Friday and was surprised they had a reduced price “happy hour” for Margaritas and beer til 7.
We ordered the cheesy dip with bacon bits and chips as an appetizer and it was DELICIOUS!!! For dinner we had the smash burger and quesadilla with steak and mushrooms. Both were yummy. They have a good drink menu, though not too many wine choices. In addition to Rowin, I appreciated the attentiveness of the owner who stopped by as well as the bartender who made sure to greet us coming and going. I will definitely return.“

“We went for my grandsons, 32 birthday and he loves good restaurants it was a little tuff for me drink's was different and the understanding of the menu I'm old so I needed my flashlight to see the menu but the food was great everything was great and I love this for my grandsons and we get to try different food“

“the server was on point checking to see if we needed anything even though it was busy, but the service that we got today was extremely excellent and even the food was great.Outsteak house was the bomb dot com🙌💪“

“Food and service were outstanding“

“What an incredible experience! I went there last night on 57th Street for Christmas Eve. 5 star customer service thanks to The Rock & staff, delicious lamb chops, tuna tartare and Pinot Noir. I had the pecan pie and ice cream, my mom had the crab cake and we shared the creamed spinach and mashed potatoes. I highly recommend! Thank you for such an enjoyable evening! I will definitely be back.“

“This was the best meal we've had in NYC and the staff couldn't have done anything better. Our steak was perfectly cooked and so tender! The grilled octopus (which we don't often find) was delicious and one baked potato is plenty for two. Finished with NY cheesecake and tiramisu-so yummy! Thanks to Lorik for stellar service. Will definitely dine here again.“

“The experience was fantastic! The food was so delicious!! The service was so good and the employees were so nice with us. I spent such a great time having dinner with my friends in my birthday! I highly recommend this restaurant!“

“Favorite spot in the area!“

“GM Jill greeted me with a big welcoming smile!
Jill is the consummate professional leading her team by a strong example !
Juanita our waitress created an “indulging environment”! Her service was outstanding - particulary when she served me my vodka Martini - chilled to perfection - poured into my glass up to the rim of the glass. We ordered house specialty beef & tuna plates - prepared to perfection - begun with my favorite jumbo shrimp cocktail.
We look forward to returning.
Bonnie from Manhattan.“

“Glatt A La Carte in Brooklyn, NY: Food? Immaculate! Ambiance? Marvelous! Service? Impeccable! Thank you so much for feeding AND taking care of my family and I. My mom and 2 children decided to dine here this past Tuesday after searching up about 20 kosher restaurants nearby. We live over 2 hours away but knew we needed to eat good before the long drive back home. Listen… don’t walk, but RUN to this place! I ordered the Tomahawk steak and it came out perfectly. The accompanying chicken dishes (chicken wing poppers, buffalo chicken poppers and chicken and waffles) were superb! You’d think I was a celebrity with how they made sure I left happy. Thank you to the owner for stopping by our table ensuring we enjoyed the food. Thank you to our waiters! We were definitely pleased and will return when we’re in the area.“

“Excellent as always. One of the best steakhouses in NYC. Pro tip - if it’s just two, sit in the cozy front corner of the bar in the speakeasy below for you meal and def order the twice baked and the creamed spinach“

“I enjoyed everything they brought out, very delicious, and well seasoned. Very impressed with the meal and the service. Will be coming back.“

“This place absolutely lives up to the expectation when it comes to food, service, atmosphere, and the oodles of money you will pay for your meal. Quick tips are go early (because by 6:30/7 it will start to fill up) or during the week, order the burger (they only make 6 per DAY), and reserve a high top seat by the bar (just my preference but it made me feel like I was in a less stuffy/fancy shmancy restaurant).

Jk about this being a short review. Anyway I loved all of the appetizers we got to start and would order them again and again. The bread service had a cheddar biscuit that was unnecessarily good, herbed focaccia, and whipped butter and labneh as dips. I had to stop myself from going crazy on that alone. The tuna tartare with shiso, sesame, and seaweed was light, fresh, and the flavor didn’t overpower the tuna itself. Tuna grade was also a 10/10 and just melted in my mouth. The oven baked cherry stone clams with pickled pepper, garlic bread crust, snd spicy pepper butter was creamy was deeply flavorful and blended so well together. If any critique here, I would ask for the breadcrumbs to be toasted a bit longer but I’m just being annoying. Then their take on a Caesar, the little gems salad, with hazelnuts, an anchovy vinaigrette, and leeks was just surprising enough while still following the traditional Caesar taste… so exactly what I wanted to feel like I was doing something different.

As for our mains, the bone in filet mignon just melted. It was cooked perfectly and seasoned intentionally but sparingly so the meat really shined. The cappelletti with butternut squash, brown butter, candied pepitas, and toasted sage was such a cozy dish, it tasted how the Fall season feels! If I were to critique the dish, I wish it was served hot and not warm; that would’ve brought its level up to a 15 instead of 11 out of ten. And the star of the show… the bar burger! Of course it’s not on the menu and as I said above, they only make 6 burgers a day… so obviously I had to get it and was not disappointed in the slightest! Nothing fancy here: melted cheese (don’t ask what kind), medium rare burger, light tomatoes sauce (fancy ketchup) and a sourdough bun. Think that’s what haven tastes like? The burger was HUGE so I will be eating the other half for breakfast.

Had the most delicious cab that was sooo expensive… so I’ll never have it again but it was fruity and bold in all the right ways.“

“I went to Harry's for my birthday dinner while visiting NYC in May 2025. Everything was absolutely perfect. Best beef wellington I've ever had. The service was outstanding. The drinks were delicious and the creme brulee topped everything off. I plan to dine there everytime I visit NY. I would recommend to any and everyone.“

“The food was absolutely amazing! Service was exceptional!“

“Food is amazing and ambience was great“

“Delicious food and great atmosphere.“

“My family and I dined here after a Broadway play as part of our birthday celebration for my wife.

The server and sommelier made it a point to make our experience special and started off our meal with a glass of champagne. Our server, Ben, was excellent and walked us through the menu choices and helped with a few selections and then took great care of us throughout the evening.

The Sommelier, Jazz, helped us pick the perfect bottle of wine based on our wine preferences and within the budget we gave him. He checked back in several times to make sure we were happy with the wine and the meal.

Everything we ordered was excellent, Hamachi, Steak Tartare, Filet, Wagyu Rib Cap, cocktails and desert. We loved it all! When Jonathan, the General Manager, stopped by to say hello and check on us we told him we no longer have to search for a favorite steak house, we just found it.“

“The Hype is REAL! 🥩🔥
OMG where do I even start? The food is unreal and the staff is so classy! They literally treated us like royalty.
The Steak Frites was the best I’ve ever had—literally melted in my mouth. That Ribeye was cooked to perfection: crispy on the outside and super juicy inside. And don't even get me started on the mashed potatoes and spinach... I’ve never had mash that creamy in my entire life! No wonder the chef has a Michelin star!
We went for Restaurant Week; my husband got the lunch special and that Salmon Tartare was next level. Even the bread, the butter, and the dessert were a total 10/10.
Seriously, you guys HAVE to check this place out. Worth every penny🔥

I inhaled half the food before I could even snap a pic, I literally couldn't wait! 😂“

“VERY KIND AND ALWAYS BEAUTIFUL PLACE!!! EVERY YEAR WITH MY FRIENDS, LAST NOGHT WITH MY SON FOR HIS FIRTS TIME IN NYC! DELOCIOUS FOOD AND THE BEST FILET MIGNON FOR US!!! Thanks a lot all the Benjamin team 🤩🤩🤩 Giampaolo & Leonardo 🇮🇹“

“We dined here for our last night in New York, and were so glad we did. The food was outstanding, steaks cooked as requested, sides of Steakhouse fries, sauteed broccoli and mushrooms were perfectly delicious accompaniments. Our waiter was very pleasant and happy to make suggestions or recommendations. All staff were courteous and welcoming. We would be very happy to recommend and would definitely visit again.“

“After a long day of walking through NYC, we decided to try Empire Steak because it was close to our hotel. We had never heard of the restaurant and our expectations were neutral. The filet mignon was one of the best I've ever had! Perfectly seared on the outside, perfectly seasoned and perfectly done. Service was very attentive. We will definitely be returning to Empire Steak on our next visit to NYC.“

“Righteous 💪 worth the trip, worth the money. Take a moment and tip the staff slicing and preparing your food. Absolutely worthwhile to make the trip. I drove 45 minutes out of my way to try the food and I’m happy I made the effort, my craving was satisfied.“

“We visited this restaurant this past Saturday and even tho we just gave them a call 40 mins prior arriving, they accommodated us- no wait time. The staff is very attentive, friendly and warm. Every single one of them. We went there with a 4month old and i was a little skeptical but our server, Ali, and Alessandro went above and beyond to make us feel as comfortable as possible and answer to all of our needs and requests.
I loved their pizza, brings you right back to Italy, like rarely you can find in NJ. And the tiramisu!!! OMG!! The best one i have ever had in my whole life!! Definitely will be back!
Grazie a tutti!“

“We had a great night! The experience was wonderful and the staff was very attentive and helpful. You will not get a better steak anywhere and the sides were just as delicious. Will definitely be back on our next trip to NYC. Tried to share some pics and I couldn’t“

“Great steaks and excellent service!“

“Came here with my parents while they were in town and it was a highlight of the trip. Jorge and Nikka were out servers abs they went above and beyond. The food was amazing! We had the rib cap, sea bass, and lamb chops, with mashed potatoes, Caesar salad, Brussel sprouts, and baked potato, and it was all exquisite. The Basque cheesecake was a recommendation we loved, even though we were so full! We'll definitely return and recommend this restaurant to others.“

“We enjoyed and the food was delicious 😋 And the waiter was very friendly !“
