Donohue's Steak House is a cozy neighborhood joint that transports guests back in time. The bar features an original wooden structure with 12 seats and serves expertly mixed classic cocktails. The menu includes early modern ocean liner-inspired dishes, with standouts like the Cheeseburger (American cheese, lettuce, white onion & pickles) and creamed spinach. The atmosphere is authentic and nostalgic, highlighted by red leather booths and tables with red tablecloths, creating an old-school vibe. The service is attentive and friendly, with servers in white collared shirts and black pants, making guests feel at home. While the menu may be limited and prices are high, the food is solid, including steak fries that are crispy and flavorful. The drinks are well-balanced, with a great gin martini served with a sidecar for extra. With its unique charm and the involvement of the third-generation owner, Maureen Barrie, Donohue's remains a great spot for a classic dining experience and a taste of real New York history.
