Excellent dining experience during Restaurant Week. The food was outstanding (tried the crab cake, the steamed buns, the ribeye, the skirt steak). Our party ordered the salmon burger and pork chops but didn't enjoy them, so our wonderful waiter Andrew brought us out different entrees free of charge to supplement our meal. He's the best. Very friendly as well. Side note, the decor was lovely, especially if you're a Yankee fan.

Amazing! (I'm a Mets fan) idk how excited I should really be for coming here LOL. I can't lie though it was a legit spot. The Filet mignon was delicious! It's fresh, thick and properly prepared. It falls apart in your mouth like butter. It was perfect. The staff is VERY attentive, made me feel very well taken care of! The drinks cold and refreshing. They don't skimp you on the sizes either. Everything here is "go big or go home" including the ABNORMALLY sized ice cream volcano that was served ON FIRE! With Bacardi rum. It was delicious and fun! Had a blast there!

Surprisingly, one of the best steakhouses we've been to in NYC, and you know there are a ton. As a Yankee fan, I can write much more about the ambiance and atmosphere, but this is not the place for that. This is the place for the one and only long bone ribeye with the option of engraving your name on the bone! Deliciously presented and cooked at just under $80. For heavy eaters, you can finish it yourself. For the two of us, it was more than enough to be shared. We had the crab cake as an app, the long bone ribeye as the main, creamed spinach as the side, and ended the meal with a wonderful creme brulee. Oh, and there was a Yankeetini and Syrah in there as well. The crab cake was as expected in one of these high-end locations, chunks of crab and not much else, no filling, no breading. Served with a slightly spicy salad and sauce, the crab cake was a perfect app to start the evening. Then we had the long bone ribeye at medium rare paired with creamed spinach. The ribeye was perfectly cooked and deliciously seasoned. Since it is a ribeye, expect some fat around the edges and you won't be disappointed. As for dessert, we really wanted the volcano but they had no volcano for the day. This worked out for the best because it was supposed to be big enough to serve 6, and there's no way we could've finished all that. We barely finished our meal as it was! Do check into yelp and you'll receive a free dessert for the table. Overall, it was a wonderful experience for dinner if you're willing to indulge in high prices for a bit. Definitely worth a visit for any Yankee and steak lover!

We came here for the restaurant week menu and were not disappointed. My girlfriend ended up ordering a la carte instead and was thrilled with her decision. We ended up with a wedge (which was loaded with delicious blue cheese) and the watermelon/tomato/feta for our salads. Both were huge portions and tasted fresh and wonderful. I ordered the Delmonico ribeye and she had the ravioli. The steak was cooked and seasoned perfectly. Every bite was better than the last. The ravioli were made in house and the filling was a light blend of ricotta and spices. For dessert we shared the brownie sundae. It could have used a little more brownie, but the cracker jacks were a nice touch. Service was as good as reviewed once we actually had someone take our order. We waited a little over ten minutes before placing a drink order, but barely noticed because of the amazing decor. This place is a must for any Yankees fan, but even if you're not-go enjoy one of the best steakhouse experiences in the city.

Came here for a business lunch and probably wouldn't go back if I had to. The place is literally New York Yankees Steakhouse so everything is blue and white with pictures all over the place. There are private rooms downstairs, and if you take the stairs, its designed to feel like your going into the locker rooms from the dugout or something.....at least I think. If not, it's a real bad paint job. Bacon with maple syrup was overly sweet. Filet was cooked medium rare but lacked seasoning, and the dark chocolate mousse was just okay. ehhh..
Batter up! I always avoided this place, I thought it would be filled with tourists and crappy food. It's restaurant week in NYC and I'm craving steak. Not Outback crappy meat but a nice cut of Delmonico steak. I saw a few top notch restaurant dinner listings but NYY Steak had a Delmonico for a $15 up charge as well as thick bacon for a starter. NYC restaurant week, for dinner gets you an appetizer, entree, and dessert for $38 bucks. At that price It allows you to try the best NYC area restaurants. (And trust me, I have a loooooong list, NYC rocks!) This restaurant is very close to Rockefeller Center. My thought process is pass, they'll be tourists everywhere. This is so not the case. I walked in on a Thursday Night and saw after work folks enjoying happy hour. And Jeter isn't serving drinks?? Damn, I never get lucky. Starting on deck, I order a nice glass of NYY Cabernet as well as my thick cut bacon starter. The Bacon? Really rich and decadent. Savory. Man on first. My steak ($15 upcharge) is the Delmonico steak with a side salad. Cooked medium thankyouverymuch. The steak, although wasn't as thick as I dreamt about it in my mind, was cooked perfectly and the taste? OMG, so good and it cut like butta. Man steals second. I wasn't thinking about dessert and I ordered the cheesecake. The cheesecake was topped with the fresh fruit was very good. I was going to eat 1/2 the piece but I couldn't stop eating it, it was a triple double!! OMG! Man is rounding the bases, its a home run hit right out of the park! There are huge pictures of the team on the walls, to me its a very classy looking spot. I'm a convert. Final rating: If you're in midtown, NYY Steak should be a top choice

Ok i have to be honest when my boyfriend told me he got a groupon to here I was not looking forward to eating here at all because it seemed so touristy which implied just an ok food. I was so pleasantly surprised how delicious everything was! My boyfriend insists it was one of the best steak he has ever had and I thought the crab cakes was so delicious!
Service was impeccable as usual. The menu has taken a nosedive. Really disappointed that the lobster mac n cheese is gone. Also not happy to see that the 6oz has been dropped. Ribeye came out without the bone. So most of the quirky details and signature dishes that made this standout against the other steakhouses, in my opinion, have suddenly disappeared. Thick steak bacon was great as a starter. Tough call on this one. Expensive meal for many of the dishes that I had expected to see, but weren't available.

When some friends decided to come into the city to meet me for dinner and picked this restaurant, I was skeptical to say the least. First, while I don't mind the Yankees, I'm not a fan. (Once a Philly girl, always a Phillies girl!) Second, it's in Midtown. What's the problem with that? To me, that means high priced tourist trap. But these are amazing friends so I sucked it up and said okay. We met at the bar where drinks were a bit pricey ($16 for a martini) but I have to admit...it was one of the best martinis I've had. It was called a Blue Something-or-Other, but it was basically a Ketel One dirty martini. The bartender...I forget his name (Shay? Kay? Say?) was wonderful and kept our drinks full and exchanged quips back and forth with a bunch of veteran teachers who are not easily impressed. We loved him. When our reservation came up, we moved upstairs to our table where Andrew Micinowski, our waiter, greeted us. We looked over the menus...pricey, but honestly? Not that pricey for a New York steakhouse. Two of my friends picked the porterhouse for two, I had the ribeye, and my other friend had a filet. While we were waiting, we got talking to Andrew and found out he was from the same small area of Pennsylvania that my friends (and originally I) are from, so that got us gabbing. He then brought the chef out to meet us...who is also from PA. I have worked in the restaurant industry before and have rarely seen the executive chef go out to a table...certainly not in New York City! He then sent us a beautiful salad for the table, "his compliments". What?? In New York City?? Dinner came and the steaks were perfectly done...well done for the porterhouse (I know...horrible!), medium for the filet, and mooing for my ribeye. Each steak was fantastic! The sides of asparagus, macaroni and cheese, and truffle fries were amazing complements to the entrees. As we finished, the director of operations, Michael Salmon, came over to ask how we were enjoying our experience. He spent quite a bit of time chatting with us and we discovered he also has PA ties. Such a small world!! Then Erik Gonzaga, the operations manager, stopped by to see how everything was. By this point my friends and I were looking at each other and thinking, "Crap! They must think we're related to Derek Jeter or something! We're gonna get kicked out any minute!" It was simply unfathomable to us that we were being treated like royalty at this place...but we ate it up for sure! Time for dessert. No one had room, but that didn't stop us from asking Andrew what he would recommend. He said the NYY Steak 151 Volcano would be perfect for the table. Volcano? How could we go wrong? He brought this mound of vanilla bean ice cream covered in ground up Heath bars to the tableside where he poured 151 proof rum over it and lit it on fire. (See picture!) Each of us got a piece that was ginormous and so, soooo good! We had after dinner drinks and coffee where Rodrigo took excellent care of us, making sure everything was filled and refilled. As we finally started to leave after FOUR hours from bar to table, we met Jim Stewart, the director of catering sales, who also wanted to make sure we had an excellent time. (I remember all their names because they all gave us their cards!) I cannot believe what an amazing experience we had here. The food was amazing but it was the service and attention that puts this place over the top in my book. We literally felt like Yankee royalty! (I'm still convinced they acted like this under the mistaken assumption we were related to someone special somehow!) If you want great food and an exceptional dining experience, even if you're not a fan of the Yankees, this is the place to try. I've lived in this city for twelve years and have NEVER had a dining experience like this!

At first blush, NYY Steak seems to be a place that wouldn't be that good just because it is using the yankee name to market itself. However, all the yankee stuff aside (plates with famous yankee numbers and the blue and white color ways of the linens), this is a seriously good place to eat. For this lunch, the wait staff started us off with some warm pretzel rolls. Nice. For the appetizer, I really liked the pairing of the maryland lump crab cake with the fresno chili vinaigrette. The next item that I liked a lot was the steak sandwich. If you aren't that hungry, it can easily satisfy the appetites of two people. However, the salt on the fries wasn't evenly dispersed so that was a little disappointing. We also tried the scallop entree, which was pretty good as well. The presentation seemed a little off, but I appreciated the effort. On the minus side, we had to wait 20 minutes for the entrees. Not sure what happened, but the waitress apologized, so I appreciated the recognition of this lapse. Service was very good and I would come back again. You might experience some slight sticker shock from the prices, but this is worth trying.

Being that my family was visiting NYC for the first time and my brother is one of the biggest Yankee fans I know , I thought it was only suitable I brought them there . Right off the bat the establishment was filled with memorabilia which my brother absolutely loved Restaurant looked polished and service was spot on . Our server came over with their drink menu and gave us serval recommendations on wines and gave us the specials for the evening . All which were just amazing . We were just so excited for the good so we opted to skip the apps and go straight to entrees . The wait was long just because my mother ordered the pork chop well done and given that it's a very thick cut it took longer too cook which was completely understandable . The wait was worth it once the food arrived , the pork chop was just perfect and my mother loved it , brother had the 18oz New York strip and he just loves every bite , i chose the boneless rib eye which had just the right amount of fat to keep the flavor it was a perfect medium rare , my partner had the filet mingon and left the plate clean, we all shared sides that went perfect with every entree. All which were paired with a very light Malbec We finished off your meal with a free dessert (with yelp check in) we chose the NYY steak 151 volcano which was very cool and delicious mountain of coffee bean ice cream covered in Heath bar served with a shot of 151 which of course was lit up in a really cool way . Glad we chose this place everyone left happy and very full .

Yankees and Steak, how can anyone go wrong. A bit on the pricey side to be expected. Bar area downstairs is spacious and can hold plenty. Restaurant splits into levels with the top being the smallest but with a glimpse into the chefs as the prepare. The bacon ap is a must so have your heart attack juice ready. But so worth it. Any steak is very good as well as Lobster Mac and Cheese side. Tends to be more trendy and formal so come to fit the part. Great shots of great Yankee moments drape the space with regular size pics to over 6 foot clear murals. A must visit when close by.

Bloomingdales was having a family and friends sale, so my sister-in-law and I went there for a visit. And then made the trek from Lexington and 61st to NYY Steak. We did get lost on the way there, passed right by it. When we finally got there we were seated at a nice table upstairs. Our waiter was a little off and seemed to just not really want to be there. We had two groupon deals, one for Jack and I, one for his sister and brother-in-law, we were ready to eat. Each couple got two appies, two entrees with a side each and one dessert according to the Voucher. So we ordered PEI Muscles, two beat salads and a tomato mozzarella plate. The portions were big and they appies were really good. For the drinks I had a Russian Mojito, Jack had a Jack N Coke(I think he likes it because it has his name in it), Boris had a beer because they did not have an apple Martini. The cocktails were very watered down, even when I got a floater on my second one. For the entree, I got the short ribs, which I did not like and traded with Jack's Filet Minion. Boris loved his Ahi Tuna and my sister-in-law was just not that lucky. She ordered a salmon with corn. Although we told the waiter that we did not want anything with pork in it, he didn't think it was important enough to tell her that her corn came with bits of bacon. She had a few bites before she realized that there was bacon in it, and she was very upset. The manager came, and was very apologetic when he heard the dilemma. He comped our drinks and ordered her a new salmon without the corn. Sadly enough, the second salmon was terribly raw on the inside and burntly seared on the outside. When we called the waiter over he didn't even need for us to speak, he instantly saw what the problem was. He took away the salmon and they put another one to cook. Although this was very disastrous to say the least, because the manager was willing to compensate for what they lacked in other ways, I gave them a 4 star. He gave us a volcano dessert on the house besides the comped drinks, which was really nice. The volcano dessert was vanilla ice-cream surrounded by almonds. Over it they pour run and fire it up. Loved the presentation and the dessert tasted amazing. We did get a Chocolate cake too. Check out the photos. Would probably come back here.

I've passed by the NYY Steak at Yankee Stadium many times and have only peeked inside curiously to admire its opulence and ask myself why people came to a baseball game to have a sit-down steak dinner. Thus, I was fortunate enough to check out this place using a Groupon deal at the Manhattan location. The entrance is pretty grand, as you immediately enter into the main dining room with a high ceiling and classic Yankee decor all around. However, in classical Empire State style we were whisked upstairs (via a separate elevator?) to the 2nd Fl where I assume the other Groupon diners were. From a service standpoint, this felt silly and pretentious - sure, I could make an assumption that the men in suits pay more downstairs, but is it really worth separating the rest of us during a pretty slow dinner period? Nevertheless, the food was very good. I got the Fried Oysters on the Half-Shell, which would've been better if they didn't make the batter so salty. I tried the Maryland Crab Cake and would recommend that more. Entree - Filet Mignon of course! Medium rare was cooked perfectly and was tender. Only knock is the meat wasn't well-marbled so it would've been juicier and more flavorful. Sides - Brussels sprout hash was tasty and the asparagus was pretty standard. Dessert -can't go wrong with the NY Cheesecake. Overall, solid establishment that may be relying on its Yankee theme a bit too much.

I came to this place on a Saturday night with wifey,. my sister and brother in law. Wouldn't have known about this place if it weren't for Groupon. The decor and the space is beautiful. Right across Rockefeller Center. Warning: parking in this area is tough and meters are til midnight. We had purchased 2 deals for two couples and the manager, Eric, was more than happy to accommodate us. We ordered a variety of appetizer s and entrees and were able to sample the goods. APPETIZER S: beet salad with goat cheese , apricots n walnuts PEI mussels w marinara Tomato s n mozzarella. The appetizers were amazing, particularly the mussels and the presentation of the beet salad, along with the overall taste. As always , see the pictures below. ENTREES: I had Filet mignon, medium , w/garlic mashed potatoes and broccoli, side of sauteed mushrooms. And yes!! It was juicy, cooked right and absolutely scrumptious. Definitely recommend it!! My wife had the braised short ribs which were neither to mine or here liking. It lacked taste and was a bit dry . It was on top of a risotto type dish. I didn't not like it at all. So I wouldn't recommend that. My brother in law had the AHI Tuna which he reported at "great and well cooked" w/sweet potatoes and asparagus. The sides were great as a whole. Big portions and prepared with love. My sister ordered that salmon , which we later found out had bacon in it. She wasnt too happy with b/c prior to ordering we asked the server if there was any pork in any dish and he said "No". We alerted the manager , Eric, and he was more than happy to amend the situation with a new , freshly Cooked salmon. However, when the 2nd salmon came out, it was RAW on the outside , so they got it wrong again!!. The whole table was laughing at this point cuz we felt bad about what happened, as did the manager. They finally got a well cooked salmon dish on the third try and even supplemented us with more sweet potatoes. Eric was a cool guy and even gave us the volcano dessert on the house (check video.). The night was salvaged, the company was great, and the food was great, to say the least, except for the salmon hiccup....not a wild baseball fan, but I dont need to be. This place is a fine dining establishment.

Honestly I would never have come here if they didn't have a Groupon deal. I was pleasantly surprised at how nice the dining experience was! The space is huuuuuuge. Very open interior with a classy vibe and they're not tacky with the Yankee decorations-just a few pictures. We were seated right away and the host and waiter were awesome. Our Groupon was for four people and included an appetizer, entree, side, and 2 desserts between four people. I ordered the beet salad for my appetizer and loved it. The presentation was beautiful and the proportion of beets to goat cheese to broccolini was just perfect. For my entree I got the 8 oz filet mignon. The presentation was boring, especially after seeing the beet salad. It was just mashed potatoes, two pieces of broccoli, and steak. The broccoli was overcooked and lacked flavor. The steak was very good, however. Cooked perfectly to maintain tenderness and juiciness. I had brussel sprout hash for my side and it was both delicious and beautiful. I was too full by the time my cheesecake arrived but I took a few bites and it was also very good. Overall I enjoyed my dining experience but even the price of the groupon was expensive although it was apparently about 50% off. I just do not see how this dinner was worth so much. If it was $30 maybe I would go back but there is no way I am spending $100+ here.

I had been wanting to go to NYY Steak for a while and I was finally able to go with my fiance to celebrate our recent anniversary. SO SO SO happy that we ate here because our experience was exceptional. From the decor, to the service, and the food -- it was all excellent. The restaurant knew we were celebrating our anniversary and when we sat down to our table, our waiter handed us a customized menu that read 'Happy 8th Anniversary' on top. It was very cute and extremely thoughtful. We came during restaurant week and took advantage of the special menu. I ordered the lobster mac and cheese and the 8oz fillet mignon. The lobster mac and cheese had delicious chunks of lobster and was cooked to perfection. My steak was also cooked perfectly and was more than enough for me. For dessert, we opted to share the GIANT ice cream sandwich (served with YooHoo on the side) and we also took home a slice of cheesecake which we ate a few days later. Their cookies and cream dessert can seriously feed a small nation. IT'S HUGE. The cookie was tasty, not too sweet, and went well the vanilla ice cream. It was a perfect ending to our great meal. If you're a Yankees fan, you'll definitely enjoy the details that the restaurant has. It's a beautiful space with pictures of past Yankees displayed on the walls. Even the waiters wear pinstripes. The service here was top notch. Our waiter was so nice, helpful, and refilled our wine glasses constantly. I will most definitely come back here and hopefully I'll make it to the NYY Steak located at the stadium.

I went to NYY Steak with one of my friends for dinner during restaurant week. You get an appetizer, entree, and dessert for $38 each. I ordered the lobster mac & cheese, the pan seared salmon (7 oz) with lemon/corn succotash, and NY cheesecake. All three items were extremely delicious. I would recommend if anything, to get the lobster mac & cheese. My friend ordered the kale salad, filet mignon (8oz), and chocolate mousse. She also enjoyed every item on her dishes. As soon as we walked in, our coats were checked in for free. We were given warm towels for our hands. (It also help with the super cold weather out there). I would go back for more. The bill came out to be $82 and change for the two of us and we rounded it to $100 for tip. There is also a survey at the bottom of the receipt for $20 off of $50 for your next visit. It's worth it!

Last night, 10/25/14, I celebrated my 55th birthday at NYY Steak with my wife and special friends. The event was our first time at NYY Steak and it was everything we hoped it would be. The service was great thanks to Anthony who took fantastic care of us. The food was equally impressive and the atmosphere inviting. I recommend NYY Steak to those who love great food, time spent with friends and family and sports (especially baseball).
Loved it! My friend and I had a reservation 6pm. He showed up a few minutes late but the hostesses were super nice and seated us right away. We were immediately provided with hot towels which was a nice surprise. The staff are very nice and very accommodating. We started off with some wine and scallops. The scallops were absolutely perfect; nice and buttery. I ordered the 1/2 roasted chicken and he ordered a steak (of course!) and some creamed spinach. The servings are perfect and everything was absolutely delicious. We had a $75 gift card to use and when you check in on Yelp you get a free dessert and I know that some waiters or waitresses would have been annoyed at that but our waiter was totally cool with it. For dessert we had the chocolate cake and I'm so glad we split it because this slice of cake is about the size of your head. It was beautiful, delicious and perfect.

Went here last night for dinner as part of the Restaurant Week promotion. First of all, the restaurant is beautiful. The staff is so friendly and warm but the food.....so disappointing. Smallest portions ever. I know that it's Restaurant Week but I have been to other steakhouses where you get more. The bathrooms are clean and filled with pictures of past Yanks BUT, I was disappointed to learn that the mens bathroom had news clippings in frames on the wall while the womens bathroom did not. There are die hard female yankee fans. Why not cater to them too? The best part of the whole meal was the dessert-a brownie sundae that I'm still thinking about this morning. If anything, go for drinks and a late night dessert but skip everything else.

Top steakhouse in Manhattan. Me and my girlfriend love going to all of the NYC steakhouses, have been to all the top spots, the service sets a new standard and the aged bone-in ribeye for two was second to none. The waiter said their goal is to be the best, I think they are. Also, while the place has a debonair ambiance, go on a night when the Yanks play and the whole place cheers for a moment when they score. Sophisticated and fun.

Came here with some VIP NYY Steak members. VIP (like they have their knives tucked away on the wall behind a glass case). We came here really to stalk our bartender, but aside from that, this place is great! The sliders are bite-sized and juicy! We particularly liked the meat ones. Go Yankees!

A very enjoyable dining experience with delicious drinks, steaks and appetizers. We had made reservations and were seated quickly. They give an option of complimentary breads: pretzel rolls, rosemary and sour dough. The pretzel bread was my favorite. The dirty martini was amazing. They give you a choice of vodkas and even have blue cheese olives! At $18 a piece they aren't cheap but you get what you pay for. The caprese salad was huge as the beef steak tomatoes were the size of my head! I liked the thinly slice red onion as it was a nice touch. The crab cake was fresh and delicious and had a lot of crab not just fillers. The filet mignon was made perfectly and was tender and cut like butter. The onion stack looked more like bagels and was a little on the oily side but was fun to look at and photograph. The mushroom side was chewy and flavorful. They no longer offer the Brussels sprout hash. I didn't care for the chocolate cake as it tasted a little old and seemed like it had been refrigerated for a while. All in all great food and service. This restaurant will set you back about $100/person so make sure you go hungry! They also have a lot of Yankee photographs. The Navy blue theme (waiters wear pin stripe, napkins and chairs are navy blue) runs thru the store and the menu is very Yankee centric (27 wines and Yankee themed cocktails: Yankeetini). The private party area also looked lovely. If you like the Yankees and have a love of baseball you will really enjoy the dining experience here.

Great location for another steakhouse and I think they utilized the space well. They didn't overdo it with Yankee artifacts all over, so I was very pleased with that. The butcher downstairs is something to see, so make sure you come hungry. I got a ribeye (28oz) and polished it off by myself, cooked very well (even had my name on the bone :) ). I did the tuna tartare to start with some avocado base which was nice and refreshing and as some sides for the meat, we did the creamed spinach and lobster mac which were OK - nothing to write home about. The tuna and meat were the best things here and I would warn you that during primetime hours, be ready to wait. The service, although very friendly, was extremely slow. I was not in a rush, but it did take about an hour or so to get our DRINKS brought to the table. They did end up cleaning up their act, but this was an average steakhouse for me.

My gf brought me here for my Birthday. She didn't even know it was a baseball/Yankee joint. My favorite team is the Yankees, so it was a nice coincidence. Food was great as was the service. Don't remember what we ordered but I have no complaints. The wine pairing with the steaks were great also. Will come back again!

Went there for lunch and got the crab cake app, steak sandwich and the scallops. The place wasn't too packed but it still took about 30 minutes before anything arrived. Food wise, the crab cake and scallops were nice and fresh. The steak sandwich was over-sized and could probably be shared between 2 people. It was a little bit on the rarer side as the meat was still stringed together. The side of fries was fried unevenly, with some nice golden crispy ones and some slightly charred ones.
Not your average high end steak house! This restaurant is everything the reviews say it is and more. We went on a Groupon... the staff could not have been nicer. The ambience is all Yankees, All day.... love it! The Groupon menu was fantastic. It offered a great sampling of their best appetizers, entrees and desserts. I had the oyster appetizer, fantastic!! The 8 oz filet was seasoned perfectly and cooked to perfection. Everyone in our party loved their food AND the drinks were great too! Will definitely go back, many times!

Mark D below really sums of the vibe of the place: yes, it's definitely Yankee-themed but it's not over-the-top and doesn't ruin a weeknight drinks vibe. So, I thought walking in I would either love it or hate it, depending on the kitsch factor. I expected more tackiness. Welp, I'm kinda disappointed but I kinda love this place for drinks at the bar. Til it gets overrun with tourists, like every other place I try to have after-work drinks. Oh, TWENTY SEVEN wines by the glass because....

Well, I went to NYY steak with such high expectations as I loved the experience at the location in Yankee Stadium - great food, great service, all around an A+ dinner. So, I decided to make a lunchtime reservation for a work meeting. Arrived at noon, and was seated pretty quickly. I was surprised they put us at a table in the middle of the restaurant given all the open booths, but no real foul quite yet. Our waiter came and went on for about 10 minutes about how a 28 oz porterhouse is a great lunch choice. I've worked in table service, so I know the theories about selling to your table, but this just came off as pushy. He then moved into describing twin lobsters. OK, we get it, but we're going to probably just get sandwiches. Then he said we had to start with the bacon. Lay off, man. It's noon and I am not about to have a three course meal. Next, he disappeared for a good 30 minutes. Not really disappeared, but stood close to our table, and ignored us. The bus boy must have filled our waters at least three times during this period. I made eye contact with him more than once, and he looked at me, our table, and then turned and continued chatting with the other waiters. It's lunch time, we're clearly going back to work, I'd appreciate some sense of urgency. Finally, a different waiter noticed our distress, and asked if everything was okay. I said, no, it's not, we'd like to order at some point. Our waiter finally came back and said he did not want to interrupt us. What does that even mean? Are we supposed to sit in silence until we order? When the food finally came, an hour past the time we sat down, it was not even good. I had the chicken sandwich- the chicken was so dry, I could barely eat it. In fact, I left half of it behind. The bacon was cold and the avocados were soggy. All around, not good. And the coleslaw side reminded me of the slop they serve on Big Brother. #terrible. Again, it took about 20 minutes and me waving my hand for the waiter to realize we were done eating since he was back to chatting. While he cleared our plates I gave him my credit card to speed things up. After two hours, and still hungry after my half eaten lunch, I was ready to leave. He was totally oblivious, and never once apologized. I am very disappointed, NYY Steak.

Excellent restaurant ! Our food was delicious , great atmosphere and staff was too notch. We had shrimp cocktail and bacon for apps ... Delicious ! Bacon cooked perfect with a slight maple glaze. Next was filet and strip steak, again cooked perfect and tasted great. Finished off the night with the cookies and cream desert ... Wow!! Tremendous size and delicious .. Pictures I posted on the yelp site don't do it justice ! Actually received the desert free by checking in with yelp. Our sever Robert was fantastic and took care of us to the T's. Def going back !

The large filet was cooked perfectly. Service was fine. Everything is ala carte. Cookies and cream dessert was good. It was an expensive meal but a fun experience.

After reading the great reviews on Yelp I expected a fantastic experience and brought my friends on a Groupon for 4. First of all the hostesses were very confused with the count of 4 people! They kept asking if we were 4! Hmmm, the reservation was made for 4 and there we were 4 - couldn't they count??? Then the waiter - I guess he was in training otherwise I can't understand the incompetence - broke our beer bottles and sprayed us with beer. After cleaning up we still were sitting on broken glass underfoot. Ok, I could forgive the unforgivable service, where men were served first and ladies after, where my party couldn't understand a word our waiter was saying, if the food was excellent, but, alas, IT WAS NOT! Although we were sitting right next to the kitchen, crab cake came out lukewarm and entrees as well. I like my food hot, sorry! And only filet mignon was good, asparagus was overcooked, wild mushrooms were inedible. I don't understand how such an overpriced restaurant with bad service can have glowing reviews! If you don't mind spending $300 to get tepid, unexciting food, then go for it!

Very classy without feeling pretentious Steakhouse. Great for dinner or after-work drinks. (The pizza and Yankee Mule is a must try here)

Good but not outstanding With a Yankees back restaurant and the price point this restaurant is at, I was expecting something a bit more special food wise. I went to this restaurant with a groupon deal. I am not sure if that effects the quality or quantity of the food but please bare this in mind. The deal was for a party of two and included two sides, each a main, and a shared desert. I had the fried oysters in hollandaise sauce while my date had the thick cut bacon. The bacon dish was leaps and bounds better. There are three strips covered in a light coating of syrup. The fat that was apart of it was cooked in a way that it melted in my mouth without being chewy. The oysters seemed to lack care in how it was battered. The batter was heavily coated with barely any oyster texture or flavor to shine through. The hollandaise sauce I think would have complimented it well if the batter was lighter; since it wasnt it didnt seem to work. Our main dish was the 8oz filet mignon at medium rare. The steak temperature came out perfect and was super tender. It seemed to lack enough seasoning so a lot of table salt was added. The mashed potatoes with cherry tomatoes was nice but wished they had some/any butter in it. The sides we had were creamed spinach and truffled fries. The consistancy of the fries were perfect but I had a hard time tasting the truffle. The parmesan that was on top helped but there didnt seem to be enough of it. The creamed spinach was ok but didnt seem too special. It could have been more creamy. The shared dessert was the chocolate cake. The portion size, even for both of us was refreshingly massive. It was accented with strawberry,raspberry, whip cream and blueberry. The consistency of the cake was a bit different than what I am used to. Being a big chocolate cake fan, I either expect the cake to be fluffy or dense. This cake was a bit in-between with the mouse the same consistency. I think I would give this place another shot if the price point was a bit lower, but being that its a bit costly, there are better options elsewhere.
Came here on a groupon deal , outstanding foods and service . Definately going back soon .

Came here with my coworker for restaurant week. We both ordered different things. For appetizers I had the chilled corn soup with crab meat salad and she had the warm buns with bacon. Both delicious. For the entree I had the skirt steak with summer salad and she had the pork tenderloin with corn salad and peach chutney. Delicioius! Pork was really tender and not dried out. My steak was so flavorful and cooked perfectly medium rare for me. Dessert I had the strawberry rhubarb crisp and she had the brownie sundae. My crisp was a little too sour for me but that's probably how it's supposed to be. Her sundae was so much fun. It had cracker jacks and pretzels in it too! The portions were very decent. Even with side green salads on entree, I was stuffed in the end. The restaurant itself is beautiful. Subtle Yankee colors and very spacious with seating on different levels like a stadium. Nicely done memorabilia around the restaurant. Our waiter wasn't as warm and friendly as I would have liked and he didn't ask if we wanted any coffee with our dessert. Being a Mets fan, I really didn't want to like it, but I did!

This place is a Home Run. We had exceptionally great service from the entire staff. We both had perfectly cooked filets with asparagus & mushrooms. My crab cake app was excellent. The ny cheesecake was a perfect ending. We will definitely be coming back next time we are in NYC.

Why does one go to a steakhouse boasting four $-signs, located in the heart of Manhattan? Because that person can understandably expect that between the service, the ambiance, and--especially--the food, AT LEAST two of the three will be worth the premium. In my experience at NYY Steak, all three of these elements were unacceptable. In fact, they were laughable. First of all, the four of us waited 35 minutes past our 7:30 reservation time to be seated (it was a Wednesday night, btw). The hostess and assistant manager were annoyingly inauthentic in their apologies and insulting in their reasoning for the delay. "The party ahead of you is taking longer than expected." they said. You mean to say that there was one single table picked out specifically for my reservation? This is a 200-seat restaurant!!!! The waiting didn't end there. 45 minutes after we placed our orders, I asked to speak to the manager (remember, it's been almost an hour and a half since we walked in). He came over and went straight to "would you like some free dessert?" If he was any better at being a jackass he should've asked "would you like some hospitality?" Despite the blatant dishonesty, ignorance, and Yankee Stadium-like fracas, all could be forgotten with a delicious steak dinner. Alas, all would NOT be forgotten. The $60 "signature" bone-in rib-eye was under seasoned, tough, and halfway to cold. My friend's petit filet was charred. Another's roasted chicken looked dry from across the table. And to top it all off, the waitress asked if we wanted to "order some dessert." Laughable, right? If you're looking for a restaurant with some gimmicky, home team decor, then maybe NYY is for you. But if you want to have a special meal with good steak and enjoy good company (and eat at a reasonable hour), then DO NOT DINE HERE! Lastly, as we were walking out, we bumped into another patron who could not wait to strike up small talk and vent about his equally horrible experience!

My cousin had purchased a groupon deal for this restaurant. The staff was pleasant and always helpful. The Yankees theme was interesting and definitely an experience. We ordered the crab cakes and bacon for appetizers. Then for the main course we tried the fillet mignon and pork chops with cream spinach and fries. The food was just alright nothing memorable.

Ben D.
Much better than expected steakhouse fare. With the stadium logo and tv's plastered to the wall behind the bar, it's hard to believe that this place an anything more than a sports bar. However the bone in ribeye can hold it's own with the best spots in the city and the creamed spinach is arguably the best.

Amazing!!! NYY Steakhouse was one of the few "modern" steakhouses I've been too & I have nothing but positive feedback! The food was great, lobster mac and cheese was to die for, but the service and atmosphere made the dining experience THAT much more incredible! It was moderately priced and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking to enjoy good food, great service and a wonderful atmosphere. Ps- the Yankee memorabilia and pics also added such a special touch to the restaurant!!

The location is convenient for a business lunch or a high-end lunch. I have eyed this place since it opened and finally got a chance to go here for lunch. Ayana the Hostess was really nice and accommodating. When we were seated the staff brought out a nice warm towel for us to wipe our hands. I LOVED THAT! It felt so nice and fresh. The warm bread came with two options the cheese combo was cool and the hot spice and olive mix was also really good. Lobster Mac and Cheese- The shell kind of pasta when I usually get the tube kind, but considering that it is seafood I kind of like the idea of the shells. Asparagus-Plain, long and tasteless in my opinion, but what else to do you expect from Asparagus? Ribeye- Done medium well and I requested that my name be the personalization The scallops were really good and the sauce that came with it was really good. As a yelper when you "check in" and order an Entree you get a free dessert. I chose to have the NY Cheesecake. It was so good. I loved the graham cracker combo and the strawberry syrup.

This is actually a very good steak house. I thought it would be cheesy & over priced just because its a NY Yankee restaurant, but not at all. Well..... It was an average rate for a steak in midtown. But the atmosphere was great as was the food. And the service is great too. Definitely give it a try, you won't be disappointed.

Chayana R.
What can I say? The food was everything lol. Mmmm. I can still savor the food. We ordered the bacon, tomato & mozarella & crab cake for starters. The ny strip, double play, filet mignon & pork chops for entrees. Ofcourse we had to try the cookie and cream desert. We won the chocolate truffle for valentines day. The ambiance was nice & the staff was very welcoming and attentive. Will be returning.

LUNCH review only. June 2014. 3.5 Stars NYY nicely decorated inside, high ceilings, comfortable seating. Prompt service. Ordered the NYY Steak Tomato Salad ($22) with grilled medium rare ribeye but it was a little tough. Friend had the NYY Steak Sandwich ($21) also with grilled ribeye which he devoured and enjoyed very much. I'd like to come back to try the NYY Steak Burger and crab cake sandwich. Steak ranges from $48-$62 if you're interested.

The director of sales for my territory took me here when we were both in town for dinner to vet it out for future events. I would give it 3.5 stars. Our server was quite pleasant and attentive. The space is open and modern, with the Yankees theme pervasive throughout. We each had a glass of wine and the Caesar salad was crisp, not heavily dressed. I would have liked anchovies but I was surprised that there was a small selection of prime steaks and since the ribeye was much too large, I settled on the NY strip. Unfortunately, they switched our steaks so I had to request a new one. It was served to me by the manager, who waited to ensure it was a perfect medium-rare. It was a decent piece of meat but perhaps I just prefer the flavour of ribeye since I felt it was slightly lacking. The asparagus was very straight-forward. We opted out of trying a dessert since we were quite full. I was glad that I didn't pay my own money to dine here as it wasn't to par with the price.

I only take time to write reviews if a restaurant is memorable - be it good or bad. NYY steak was memorable in a good way because it's the way all establishments should operate. I took my best friend out tonight for his birthday. I've been to the one at the stadium at it was the best steak I ever had. Better than Lugers, Del Frisco, STK, Parlor, etc. Unfortunately, this time, we had to send both of ours back as they were cooked wrong, and when you're shelling out $75/steak you want it cooked right. When the second ones came my friend's was perfect and mine was a bit chewy. I ate most of it anyway. Long story short, we ordered over $300 worth of food/drinks and when the bill came it was $60. the manager came over and apologized and explained the check was due to our dissatisfaction. Needless to say, we will definitely give NYY Steak another shot considering how forthright they are. When things aren't perfect, they are.

Came here on a groupon and it was the first time I was treated as if I was on a "groupon". Prior to telling our waiter we had a voucher, he was so generous and full of joy- once he found out we had a voucher, it was as if we didn't exist. Food was really good though, from the fried oysters to the filet- flawless. Although, the truffle parm fries did not do good things to me as I just had them for leftovers and once again my stomach is in shambles! Definitely would think to come back if I wasn't treated like a groupon customer or if the fries didn't screw with my stomach.

Absolutely divine, from the service to the food. The staff was very attentive and friendly even though we came here with a groupon. Some establishments once you have a groupon their service changes, but not here. The attention to detail was phenomenal, if you are celebrating a special occasion make sure you let them know when making your reservation. As far as the food, I can't remember when was the last time I enjoyed my food as much as I did here. Everything is so flavorful and cooked to perfection, I will definetely come back! If you decide to come here make sure you ask about the tour of the place.

My friend is a Yankee fan and had wanted to check this place out so we went! The food was fantastic (chips with ranch dressing at the bar and tuna tartare) and so were the drinks. All of the staff were very friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. The decor was great. They took a sports theme and incorporated it into a classy, comfortable environment! Yes, it is a little pricey but I totally recommend that you visit once in awhile and experience it because it is so worth the price!

Great dirty olive martini. Loved the pork chop and you absolutely have to try the crab bisque, the bread with dijon cheddar butter, the creamed spinach and the garlic mashed potatoes. The bacon is awesome too.
NYY Steak overall score: 89 Ever since moving back to NYC, my dad and I have been talking about hitting the relatively new New York Yankees Steakhouse in midtown. We were finally able to set up a visit (they're only open on weekends during dinner hours, and my parents usually visit during lunch hours on weekends, so we had to reassess the normal visit routine). So my parents came in with my oldest nephew. It was hotter than Derek Jeter's balls in a Phoenix double header that day. My wife, my parents, my nephew and I were all sweating our asses off. We were walking around Central Park in the lead up to the reservation when out of nowhere it began to pour. Rain was coming down hard, as if Poseidon and Zeus were having a golden shower party in the sky. We ran out of the park and, lucky for us, a bus was heading down 5th Avenue just as we exited. The bus let us off just around the corner from the restaurant, where we were finally safe from the downpour. Check out the count below: Flavor: 8 I ordered the 27oz long bone rib eye. It was perfectly cooked, nice and juicy, tender, and didn't have too much inedible grizzle on it. However I felt like it was just a hair under-seasoned. Nothing worth complaining about in the slightest. The most awesome part about the steak, for me, was the custom etching of your name into the bone. Upon taking our order, Michael, our awesome waiter, asked my father and I what text we wanted etched into our rib bones. WHAAAT?!??!!! THIS IS AWESOME!!! Check it out!!! This shit is now on my (Mickey) mantel at home.

I'm giving this place 4 stars for the staff! They're amazing! I didn't have dinner at this location but I did eat at the Yankees steakhouse in Yankees stadium. The food was great but there are better steakhouses in NY for the price you are paying. Not worth paying $$$$ for this place. But definitely go and have a drink at the bar. The guys will take care of you

Wow! I was pleasantly surprised with this place. I picked this out for Valentines day and I thought it was a cheesy/cute move given that my boyfriend is a huge Yankees fan. I honestly wasn't expecting anything remarkable but boy was I wrong! The ambience is beautiful! Very classy place. The staff are extremely nice and knowledgable about the team and what their usual "go-to meals" are. Now as for the food, Mmm mmmm Mmm! I can't even fathom how delicious everything was! From the lobster, to the steak, to the different dippings they gave with the bread. And don't even get my started on the dessert! Huge, and I mean huuuuge slice of chocolate cake! Must must go!

The food proportion here is very generous. I like how they could put your name on the menus and engrave name on your long steak bone. The steak was pretty good. The bacons were awesome. Their desserts are good and yummy. The atmosphere is nice and quiet. Definitely good for a nice steak day. Get ready to empty your wallet.

Well. How to start. First, we arrived a few minutes in advance, on a Saturday night, and were greeted by the host. We were the only individuals with reservations. Then, we were told that if we had to have a table immediately, we could sit at a high top at the bar, but that we would have to wait "for a real table". A bit strange as we had reservations and the restaurant was not even busy. So we waited 10-15 minutes with the hosts awkwardly standing around. We were finally seated and given a waiter who asked if we wanted still sparkling or bottled water, who then disappeared. We then were told we had a new waiter who once again asked the same question and disappeared. Finally a wait staff came to ask a 3rd time, taking approximately 20 minutes to even receive water. At this point, we're a bit weirded out that such a "nice" restaurant doesn't seem to communicate at all. While we're waiting to order, we start looking around. If you're over 50, male, at least 200lbs, and bald or balding, and are a huge Yankees fan, GO HERE! If not, this place is fucking awkward. Ultimately, we ordered, the steak was 'ok' (nowhere near the quality of an ACTUAL steakhouse in New York) and the mashed potatoes were actually pretty good. However, mid meal I found a hair in the food, and that was it. I was done. To summarize, awkward restaurant for 99% of public unless you're looking for a restaurant where the New York Yankees theme and overpriced mediocre to poor quality food is the goal. If you're looking for: - high quality food - a fun upbeat atmosphere - a nice romantic restaurant DO NOT COME HERE and choose a real steakhouse.

I went here for my birthday and it was amazing!!!! They give you personalized menus for birthday and they do a few other things but I think you should go and experience it! If you do go, ask for Fernando and his team to be your waiting. This really makes the experience over the top! The service is exceptional and Fernando makes your night memorable. The food was great! I had the filet with blue cheese and macaroni and cheese which were both really good. This is one birthday I will remember for years to come and I will be back!!!

Stopped in for a quick lunch and honestly didn't get the connection between the name and the Yankees until we were seated and saw NYY pics everywhere. Our waiter, "Michaelangelo" was very attentive and told us the answer to anything at NYY Steak was "absolutely!" Of course, being from LA, I put that to the test and asked him if he was a Dodger fan. ; ) He begrudgingly said, "absolutely!" I should have asked if we could eat for free... As for the food, it was too early for a full on steak induced food coma, so we ordered the chicken sandwich (really good) and the steak sandwich (not as good... and cooked to the incorrect temperature, which is unforgiveable at a steak house). I felt like the management cared more about the tables around us (with big ticket food items), as they asked the people at the tables all around us how everything was, but didn't seem to care about our experience. We also had to ask multiple times for bread when everyone around us got it unsolicited. Final score: Pretty good tasting food & Michaelangelo our server was great, but I didn't appreciate being virtually ignored by everyone else.

Visited September 24,2014. I have been meaning to post about our night at NYY Steak. NYY Steak tops our lists of favorites. My 14 year old son and I saved for a long time and took a trip to NYC to watch Derek Jeter's last game. To my surprise my son made reservations at NYY Steak. He usually treats me to dinner on Wednesdays but it is more like Outback Steakhouse for the 2 for $25.00 special!! He made reservations that morning when we got off the plane. We decided to walk to the restaurant and we got lost along the way, we called to let them know and thankfully they helped us make our way there. When we arrived the steakhouse we where greeted with a warm welcome and then shown to our seat. It was perfect window seat and when the server placed our menus down there was a Happy Birthday Message on the top of the menu for me! That made my evening. We decided we were going to try everything on the menu. We started off with the Crab Bisque! It was rainy and cold so it was the perfect start of a delicious meal. The server suggested some menu items and we met a beautiful family who was sitting next to us and they recommended the NYY Steak Bacon!! That was the best Bacon I have ever tasted! I have yet to have anything compare. For our entree my Son and I chose the Filet Mignon. The food was prepared to perfection and was out of this world. We finished our meal with the Cookies and Cream and Creme Brulee. My son fought to of fish the colossal cookie with Ice cream. Everything was far above our expectations. When I looked at my watch I noticed we spent 2 and a half hours there! It was truly a awesome evening! One thing I have to mention our Serve, He was spot on with his recommendations and he was so attentive to our needs. He was filled with stories and Yankee history. He also made my son feel important and thought it was awesome to be taking care of me the way he does. I wish I could remember our servers name because he was truly a compliment to the restaurant. The beautiful family I mentioned above,we spoke with them the entire evening. They loved our story and we enjoyed talking about the Yankees and sharing stories. Our server brought the tab over and handed it to me and my son quickly grabbed it and said Im treating my mom tonight. Well he thought that was so cool and asked my son how do you make your money. My son replied I umpire baseball. the family next to us was asking my son questions and such... My son pulled out is wallet and as he did the server was standing behind him and said tonight the meal is on this gentleman. Little did we did we know the beautiful family next to us paid for our meal. We were so thrilled and grateful we hugged them all with thanks. They shared they have never done that and have always wanted to and they chose us. My son and I left feeling so grateful. No one has ever made us feel that special. What a great evening. Thank you NYY Steak for a beautiful meal and THANK YOU to the Beautiful Family we may not know your name but you will remain in our hearts forever! **side note my son has saved that money that should have gone to the meal in hopes that one day he can do the same for someone else.

NYY or New York Yankees is a shrine to the Baseball Team. It is owned by the Yankees and is full of memorabilia. I'm guessing its the ideal destination for a fan... I know nothing about baseball but still had a fabulous experience. We came here for steak on our last evening in NYC and we were certainly not disappointed. they have a room in the basement where they age the beef and you can see the meat hanging there just waiting to be ordered. From the moment we walked in the door service was amazing. Everyone asks your name and then continues to uses it which is a little bit strange.. but I guess some people like to feel 'special'. We requested a 'quiet' table which is quite a rarity in New York City due to the volume of its residents but they did their best to accommodate us and we got a table on the second floor, which was substantially quieter than the ground floor where a loud group were gathered at the bar. Our waiter was charming, and everything about the evening was super efficient. The only thing I would criticise would be the bread choice. There wasn't any. It was pretzel roll or pretzel roll. It was OK, but as it's not even close to my fave bread I would of liked a choice. We decided not to have a starter as we really wanted to enjoy the steaks and so i ordered a filet mignon with lobster tail and my husband ordered the strip steak. We had a side of onion rings and steak fries. The onion rings were served as a tower and were visually quite impressive. They probably could of fed a family of five and so needless to say we didn't finish them... They were excellent though. Fresh, hot and crispy. No complaints. We managed to finish our steaks and in a moment of madness my husband ordered a dessert. I can't remember the name but it was almost as big as my head. It was two enormous (very sweet) biscuits with ice-cream in between. Like a monster ice-cream sandwich. We probably ate about a 10th of that. It was so incredibly sweet and a few spoonfuls were as much as I could manage. All in all a great experience - even if you aren't a Yankees fan. anexpatwife.com/the-rest…

Nice decor and reservations were not a problem. The place is huge. Service was friendly and attentive. Unfortunately, the food just was average at best. For the price (and it is pricey). Just not worth it.

My waiter was only interested in pushing items on the menu and increasing the bill. In the beginning, he was super friendly and warm, talkative, etc. Then, as soon as he felt like I hadn't ordered enough, he became cold and rude. Management needs to address this. The food is not good enough to tolerate offensive and rude service.

The experience wasn't the worst in the city but they failed in two major areas. 1. The service was courteous but slow! Hate to leave a negative review for a kind server, but you get paid to do your job well... Not being nice. 2. I ordered a filet med. rare and sent it back because it very well done. It was worth it because it was the only item served that was warm. We all thought kitchen couldn't time their food and left them under a lamp or something because my steak came out more well than well. We also ordered dessert here which was a mistake because scooping ice cream takes a full 20 mins here. I recommend their bar, pretty good drinks but a little pricey. In all we tried the Mac n cheese (would not get), button mushroom (not warm - would not get), garlic mashed (good when warm), filet mignon (the second steal was good!).

I had the privilege of enjoying a lovely dinner at NYY Steak. My dining experience was awesome. I started with a Caesar salad (just the right amount of dressing) and then served the hugest salmon filet ever along with creamed spinach, potatoes, mushrooms and fancy bacon as my side dishes. Don't forget to order the New York cheesecake. The service was top notch and the drinks were fantastic. Come VERY hungry and be prepared, unless you have a huge appetite, to take home a doggie bag.

Never going back. Absolutely horrible service. This must have been an off night for them, but for such a reputable restaurant are we wrong to expect quality service and food anytime we go? My husband goes here for work lunches, and loved it so much he took me here for Valentine's. Our waitress never came to check in with us. We had to send back our soup and onion rings. It was taken back without an apology but with a total attitude. My husband got the wrong steak delivered, and we knew because they engrave your name on the bone. No one gave us bread or water. We had to constantly ask for it. Staff were just like young kids with no professionalism. Go to del friscos or capital grill down the street. Sorry Yankees, we are most likely never going back.

This place is more of an attraction than a reasturant, and I mean that as a compliment. Besides that point there was nothing that really made this place stand out to me. There's definitely better steakhouses to spend your money at but if your a Yankee fan like me it's worth the vist. The one truly positive thing I can say about this place is the staff was solid. From coat check to the bar to the waiters, we received quality service. Put them up a full point in my book.

Last Saturday my lady and I went to nyy steak. We were introduced by a waiter name barry who was a very charming sincere and pleasant man. His customer service was so energizing my lady and I ended up having a perfect dinner and a perfect evening. Guys If you want to impress your lady take her to NYY STEAK and ask for BARRY. The rest is taken care of.

Great Yankee ambiance, food was above average, service was great. The Yankees know they are trying ot break into a competitive steak market in NYC and know they have to perform. Resturant has great decor and food is par with most of the upper echelon of steakhouses in NYC. I was told about the private dining experience while dining there and would definitly consider returning to experience that side of the restaurant.

Like the original at Yankee Stadium in the Bronx, this place is on point. From the glass of Freemark Merlot ($13) to the bowl of crab bisque ($13) to the shrimp cocktail ($19) to the bone in ribeye ($58) to the petit filet mignon ($43) to the side of lobster mac & cheese ($15) to the 151 Volcano ($15) to the cappuccino ($5.50), all were on point. Outstanding.

This place has the wow factor that I love from the bar, paintings and atmosphere. It's so beautiful that your meal tastes extra special because of your surroundings. The bf and I shared fried oysters - yum, and tuna tartare...both were delish. My petite filet was cooked medium rare and his lamb chops were medium and both were tasty plates. The lobster mac and cheese was disappointing the shells and consistency were off. Our waitress was knowledgable, sweet and always around when you needed another drink. Our dessert was so huge we took it to go and devoured the rest the following evening. Great place to have on your radar.

Excellent!!!!! The food was absolutely great. Michelle, our server was excellent. Very attentive to our needs. Treated our six year old son as if he was an adult. Very caring of our needs and concerns. Very polite. Will defiantly go there again. The Yankeetini a must to have. Thanks Michelle for the recommendation. Ribeye steak very tasteful, as for the bacon appetizer it was amazing. Crab cake is a must. As I said before....... EXCELLENT

My wife and I are Yankee fans. Wanting to go to a nice restaurant for our 19th wedding anniversary, I decided to make a dinner reservation at NYY Steak. The service was fantastic. Rachel, our server was incredible. The manager came by as well to check on us. Rachel took a picture of us and put it in a NYY Steak frame as a memento of our visit. The food - for an appetizer I ordered the Crab Bisque which was outstanding. For the main course, I ordered their signature bone-in ribeye and my wife ordered the Double Play - petite filet and lobster tail. My steak was the best steak I have ever had in my life...and I've been to the top steakhouses in the city! I can't wait to return to NYY Steak!

This is a super cool place for Yankee fans! All the waiters know interesting facts about the Yankees! But it's super pricey and my medium rare steak was raw in the middle and burnt on the outside!! But the lamb chops were amazing! Super fantasy restaurant and a lot of the players actually eat there!

Its a NY Yankee themed Steakhouse: staff wear pinstriped shirts, linens are Yankee blue & white, side plates are baseball diamond shaped and pictures of Yankee players line the walls. Despite these accents, the Yankee theme isn't intrusive. The lights are lit to a normal level and the ceiling is huge which gives the place a very open, airy and contemporary feel as opposed to other steakhouses Ive been to which are dimly lit and old world feeling. We ordered a few appetizers to start: tuna tartare served over avocado (very good), beet & goat cheese salad (very good), tossed salad (average, i mean its salad), and a crab cake (very good...not fishy at all). I opted for the Ahi Tuna dinner (i know, its a steakhouse), but it was a weeknight and I didn't want to crush my stomach. Tuna was good, seared, and fresh. The sides were typical of a steakhouse: creamed spinach...which is a favorite of mine, was solid. We also ordered the smashed sweet potatoes which were good. The onion ring stack was OK, probably my only gripe....they are HUGE and battered which ultimately turned into a mostly hallow ring of fried batter with a little tiny shriveled onion inside. There are better options. In the end I would say this is a decent addition to the steakhouse options of midtown. Certainly has a more commercialized feel being part of the Yankee corporate umbrella but the food was good.

Had a fantastic time last night at a company function! Although the place is baseball themed, the design is tasteful! As for the steak, if you like a medium well, order a medium. Two steaks were sent back. Other than that, the portions are good, the seafood is delicious, the sides were amazing, the service was great and I am actually planning to go back to celebrate someone's birthday! Experience it!

I have used yelp to preview many restaurants. This is the first time I have ever written a review. Went to NYY steak after seeing a matinee. Decided to go here because I had a really good groupon deal. It was a big mistake. The deal called for each of us to order an appetizer. We got the mussels and crab cake. Mussels were horrible, big huge fat mussels that tasted funny. The crab cake was ok, not great. Entrees we ordered the filet mignon and beef short ribs. The short ribs and polenta were so bland, really bad. The steak was ordered medium and came out like a hockey puck. We never send food back but had to. The next one came back cooked on outside but raw on inside. The manager tried to make a comment that we really wanted a medium well. He was smug and made it seem like we screwed up. The sides and dessert were good but the stars of the meal were bad. Don't be fooled by the groupon.

Great personalized service. Amazing food. Could use softer bread and better bonded butter/mustard and tapenade spread. Cool meat locker, go for a tour. Great looking humongous chipwich but no room after dinner! Will go back for it...and a blue drink!

Ok, I seriously thought "Yankees Steak"?! That sounds like it would be horrible and rubbery. Steak houses don't appeal to me at all. I am not a big meat person and I try not to eat too much animal protein. Went to an event there and tried their shrimp, oysters, lobster and steak. The seafood was all fine, but Oh.My.God. The steak was AMAZING. I had to go back for more. All the rules were tossed aside for that night. It was some of the most tender and flavorful steak that I've ever had. Can't wait to go back!

More like 3.5 stars. The Good: Service is astounding. Superbly nice and accommodated my request for special seating. Came for my bf's bday and they printed out special menus for him that said happy birthday on it and really made him feel special. Also checked up on us at the appropriate times and filled our drinks as needed. As far as the food goes, i loved the little warm pretzel rolls (?) they gave with the mustard spread. Steaks are quite generous and if you get the crazy rib eye thing, they personalize the bone with whatever you want written! Good gimmick. Steaks are tasty, but oversalted. The outside is also a bit TOO charred. If they just dimmed down the salt and their cooking temp, I think it could be a good competitor for steakhouses in nyc. For dessert, we had the volcano thing and the creme brulee. Both were awesome and again the volcano thing is just a great gimmick. Who doesn't like a little after-dinner fire show? The heath crunch crust is quite addictive and pairs well with the vanilla ice cream. DON'T EAT THE LEFTOVER MELTED ICE CREAM. It's pretty much pure rum. lol. The Bad: Ordered the seafood tower for 2 as the appetizer. Eh. Seafood wasn't all that tasty. It was a decent quality but just didn't have that oomph of sea freshness that I love. Along with the steak, we also ordered the mashed potatoes and creamed spinach. Mashed potatoes didn't have much flavor nor much substance. It seemed very bland and on the thinner side (maybe using milk instead of cream?). The creamed spinach was overwhelming sweet and had too much nutmeg. The Ugly: PRICE. Very steep. Not a place I would visit more than once every 2-3 years, especially if the food isn't quite up to par. And something that I thought would be obvious: we had plenty leftover from the ribeye with bone. We asked to pack it up to take home and instead of giving us the entire steak in one piece with the nicely personalized bone, they chop of whatever they deem edible from the bone and just give the meat. Some of the best stuff is eaten right off the bone!!! WTF!!! I'm pretty sure there was plenty of meat left on that bone. plus the personalized bone is cool to take home as a souvenir. Seems like such a simple thing, no?

Super food! Service was fantastic from Kyle! He helped us make our way through the menu as well as the Resturant it self. Kyle made the experience for us. Nice wine, great food. We will be back.
My girlfriend and I went with a Groupon and everything was amazing. Salads were good....My girlfriend had the Beets salad which Naomi our server recommended. She raved over it...I had the Caesar salad.....very good but different. Had a strong anchovy taste but nonetheless good. For our main course I had the filet mignon. It was cooked perfect and tasted even better.....Morton's look out. Naomi rold me that the filet comes over garlic mashed potatoes and recommended I get a different side. I ordered the onion ring tower. Best homemade onion rings I've ever had.....so many I took half of them home. My girlfriend had the Salmon with Asparagus and said it was delicious. The Groupon came with a shared dessert so Naomi recommended the chocolate cake which I saw being brought out earlier....it was a huge piece. Being that we were pretty full, Naomi split the piece into two and packed half of it up for us to eat at home. The cake was fantastic. The place was beautiful....top notch in my book. Naomi made it even better....she was so informative and a great help with all her suggestions. The only downside which I felt was so unprofessional was when my girlfriend returned from the bathroom (she was wearing a very sexy tight dress) as she passed the bar, the bartender let out a loud enough for her to hear "Woah".....very unprofessional for that type of establishment.

The restaurant itself is very beautiful and the Yankee decor is neat to look at. I knew before hand it was going to be pricey but expected better quality food for the price. The portion of the food was pretty small and the quality of the meat was not what I was expecting. I had the New York Strip Steak and my husband had the Lamb Chops. Still it was great to get to go at least once, but probably would not choose to go back.

We came for a birthday celebrate and in the reservation, I mentioned the name of the birthday person. To our surprise, the menu we got has personal happy birthday message on it! The steak was really good. We got the NY strips and Long Bone Ribeye. Perfectly cooked and really good taste. We also got the raw bar sampler. Fresh and good amount of food. The volcano ice cream dessert they have was super special. The waiter light it up with rum and the mix taste of rum and chocolate chips was so nice! I will definitely come back again and I strongly recommend this place.

I want to start of by saying that I don't normally yelp, in fact I opened up an account just to write about this place. From the moment you walk in everyone is extremely nice and very welcoming, the place is beautiful and definitely in line with the Yankees tradition. I'm a die hard yankees fan, and had never known about this place until I happened to come across it on Groupon. I instantly bought the deal and I'm so glad I did. The food was excellent especially the crab cake, the filet mignon, and the pork chop. The best thing about this place though is the service, from the moment you walk in they address you by your name the entire time, which is a nice touch and makes you feel respected. I want to thank Robert our sever for taking care of us he did an amazing job and I'll definitely be back for that Rib eye lol. The manager Eric was also very nice and made sure to check up on everyone to make sure everything was going well. I'm so glad I found this place, and can't wait to go back next time I'm in the city.

It was a great experience! I don't know if it was because we went earlier in the evening, but it seemed as though there were 2-3 waiters for every table. Any time that we took a drink of water, there was someone there to fill it. The food was excellent. It was quick and fresh. The waiters were all knowledgeable about the food and the beers available. While pricy, the food and service was well worth the price!

Simply Amazing. My girlfriend took me here and from start to finish it was an incredible experience. I started with the bacon slices, and I will definitely say that it rivals Peter Lugars (plus you get more pieces). They have an assortment of specialty cocktails and wine lists. If you are a fan of the Yankees the atmosphere is unlike anything you have ever seen. I ordered a scotch and it came in the perfect glass and it was a double. Once the steaks came out they were cooked to perfection and absolutely delicious. I got the 28oz porterhouse topped with crumbled blue cheese. It was a ton of food and I had to take out half of the steak. As with any high end steak house they tend to be a little pricey but it is a great place to go on any special occasion, especially if you are a Yankee fan.

We had an amazing dinner tonight at NYY Steak. We had a private room in the "vault." Fernando and Vanessa were knowledgable and personable. They were great.

4 stars. Started with the crab soup which was OK, but did not have a lot of crab in it. It was my birthday and ordered the Bone in Rib eye medium rare (cooked as ordered) as the entree (they charred HAPPY BIRTHDAY in the bone which was a nice touch), lobster mac n cheese, smash sweet potatoes which were all very good. For dessert ordered cookies and cream. Everything came in huge portions and I had left overs for four days. The service was great, but over the top. This is a must for any Yankee fan.

NYY Steak is a phenomenal addition to the NY restaurant scene. The food is amazing and the service is outstanding!
Amazing food, strange service. The food there is beyond awesome, the bacon is to die for, and the atmosphere is fun. However, they advertise a pre fixe meal at the front door, and then don't put it on the menu or bring it up at the table. Of course we asked about it, and then the server made us feel cheap by sighing and going to the kitchen to see if it was "still available". Um, it's advertised at your frickin front door! They have this amazing pretzel bread that you get the stink eye for if you ask for more than one piece, and don't even think of asking for the other type of bread! You get one piece, pretzel or muffin style. We will be back, despite the awkward service, because this is the best steakhouse in the city (and we have been to all the top ones). Hopefully they can get their servers to behave less like food nazis and more like servers.

We were visiting out daughter who lives in New York. December is a tough month because of the crowds, but we wanted to treat her to a nice steak dinner for her birthday. When we came in , we weren't too optimistic as we hadn't made reservations - we weren't clear on our plans. But the front desk manager was able to get us a table although he did tell us that there were some time constraints- which was fine. We had the best waitress who told us the specials and answered all our questions. We all ordered the 8 oz Filets, which came perfectly charred on the outside and pink on the inside. Delicious ! We ordered the goose fat potatoes ( highly recommended by our waitress ) and they were delicious along with the green beans. While it was approaching out time limit, we knew we wanted dessert and I mentioned that it was our daughter's birthday. Since we were chocoholics, we were thinking of splitting the chocolate cake ( which we heard was huge ) , but our daughter was also thinking of the brownie. But we said we would just get the cake as it was huge. Our sweet waitress brought the cake but also the brownie as a treat for our daughter with a candle . So special ! Of course the cake and brownie were gobbled up and we were very happy with the service and the vibe of the restaurant. We are familiar with New York steak houses, but NYY will definently be on our list for our next visit. Good food, hospitality and great atmosphere.

This was our first visit to NYY Steak Manhattan after numerous visits to the Yankee Stadium location. It didn't disappoint! We dined late on a Monday evening and pretty much had the place to ourselves (we like it that way). It's a stunning restaurant with Yankee greats adorning the walls. Our server Shawn was great and recommended the NYY Steak Corn (ok...amazing. Creamy corn cooked in bacon fat with bacon bits). Normally we have the Onion Rings and Lobster Mac N' Cheese, but this time we tried the Creamed Spinach along with the corn. For our main, we had the Bone-in Ribeye. It was cooked perfectly. To start, we'd also recommend the Prime Burger Sliders (from the bar menu). Beautifully cooked with Gouda and onion jam on a brioche bun. Yum. This special night concluded with a private tour of the basement dining area (like I said, we love when a restaurant isn't busy...especial for nice perks like this) by the manager Charlie. We saw original player contracts from Yogi Berra and Mickey Mantle. A great way to end a wonderful dinner. Thanks again to Charlie and Shawn for going the extra mile for these Yankee fans! GO YANKEES!

I came to NYY Steak last night with my family and the food was amazing. Started off with the NYY Steak Bacon, which was out of this world, the maple syrup was a perfect touch. The 27 oz long bone ribeye was prepared just how I like it and was delicious. Our server, George, was very knowledgable of the wine list and offered superb suggestions. Can't wait to come back again very soon!

Had dinner on a tuesday night. Much better than expected!!! NYY Steak had all the steakhouse classics prepared perfectly with a few new classics. The bacon was amazing!!! Scallop app was also vert good. NY strip was the best I ever had and believe me I have had them all. Service was impecable, The open kitchen was kept very clean. I reccommend this steakhouse over all others in New York.

One word - "WOW"!!!! I've had the privilege of dining in many of NYC's steakhouses, so this is the TRUTH. Food & atmosphere are amazing, only overshadowed by the service. Our waiter was so knowledgeable & genuinely enthusiastic about the place; it was contagious! Somewhere in the middle of our meal a manager came over JUST to check on us. He was a pleasure to talk to and it's so nice to see the management taking the time to check on the regular diner. We didn't have any complaints, so it was for no reason, other than a "hello". I can't wait to go back! With such stiff competition all around, it's tough to stand out. They did it here. Bravo!!

Love this steakhouse ! My friends and I are all in the field of culinary arts. We all agree that this was the best steakhouse we have all been to in years. The onion rings, seafood tower, jumbo steamed asparagus and steaks where top notch ! ! Not to mention we saw Dwight Gooding and many other Yankee players. Serves was very professional. Can't wait to go back !

Really didn't think the steaks here were good at all. Service was ok at most. This restaurant is totally for tourists and it's fitting that Hard Rock Cafe owns them. Such a theme restaurant. There are so many restaurants I'd rather spend my money. Not a true NY Steakhouse, just a wanna be.

Excellent dining experience during Restaurant Week. The food was outstanding (tried the crab cake, the steamed buns, the ribeye, the skirt steak). Our party ordered the salmon burger and pork chops but didn't enjoy them, so our wonderful waiter Andrew brought us out different entrees free of charge to supplement our meal. He's the best. Very friendly as well. Side note, the decor was lovely, especially if you're a Yankee fan.

Amazing! (I'm a Mets fan) idk how excited I should really be for coming here LOL. I can't lie though it was a legit spot. The Filet mignon was delicious! It's fresh, thick and properly prepared. It falls apart in your mouth like butter. It was perfect. The staff is VERY attentive, made me feel very well taken care of! The drinks cold and refreshing. They don't skimp you on the sizes either. Everything here is "go big or go home" including the ABNORMALLY sized ice cream volcano that was served ON FIRE! With Bacardi rum. It was delicious and fun! Had a blast there!

Surprisingly, one of the best steakhouses we've been to in NYC, and you know there are a ton. As a Yankee fan, I can write much more about the ambiance and atmosphere, but this is not the place for that. This is the place for the one and only long bone ribeye with the option of engraving your name on the bone! Deliciously presented and cooked at just under $80. For heavy eaters, you can finish it yourself. For the two of us, it was more than enough to be shared. We had the crab cake as an app, the long bone ribeye as the main, creamed spinach as the side, and ended the meal with a wonderful creme brulee. Oh, and there was a Yankeetini and Syrah in there as well. The crab cake was as expected in one of these high-end locations, chunks of crab and not much else, no filling, no breading. Served with a slightly spicy salad and sauce, the crab cake was a perfect app to start the evening. Then we had the long bone ribeye at medium rare paired with creamed spinach. The ribeye was perfectly cooked and deliciously seasoned. Since it is a ribeye, expect some fat around the edges and you won't be disappointed. As for dessert, we really wanted the volcano but they had no volcano for the day. This worked out for the best because it was supposed to be big enough to serve 6, and there's no way we could've finished all that. We barely finished our meal as it was! Do check into yelp and you'll receive a free dessert for the table. Overall, it was a wonderful experience for dinner if you're willing to indulge in high prices for a bit. Definitely worth a visit for any Yankee and steak lover!

We came here for the restaurant week menu and were not disappointed. My girlfriend ended up ordering a la carte instead and was thrilled with her decision. We ended up with a wedge (which was loaded with delicious blue cheese) and the watermelon/tomato/feta for our salads. Both were huge portions and tasted fresh and wonderful. I ordered the Delmonico ribeye and she had the ravioli. The steak was cooked and seasoned perfectly. Every bite was better than the last. The ravioli were made in house and the filling was a light blend of ricotta and spices. For dessert we shared the brownie sundae. It could have used a little more brownie, but the cracker jacks were a nice touch. Service was as good as reviewed once we actually had someone take our order. We waited a little over ten minutes before placing a drink order, but barely noticed because of the amazing decor. This place is a must for any Yankees fan, but even if you're not-go enjoy one of the best steakhouse experiences in the city.

Came here for a business lunch and probably wouldn't go back if I had to. The place is literally New York Yankees Steakhouse so everything is blue and white with pictures all over the place. There are private rooms downstairs, and if you take the stairs, its designed to feel like your going into the locker rooms from the dugout or something.....at least I think. If not, it's a real bad paint job. Bacon with maple syrup was overly sweet. Filet was cooked medium rare but lacked seasoning, and the dark chocolate mousse was just okay. ehhh..
(3)John B.
When you think New York Yankees steakhouse you are probably thinking tacky tourist trap . How wrong could you be. Yes there are some TV screens so you can catch a ball game whilst you eat and pretend to listen to your girlfriend at he same time . Yes there is some Yankees memorabilia on the walls. But NO its doesn't compromise excellent food , service and classy décor . We came for the Groupon deal on Friday and my only regret is we didn't buy more. To start we had the Maryland crab cake , holy crap this is the best crab cake ever. All crab and no cake . Amazing ! The buratta tomato salad was huge and just as a tasty . The fillet mignon was perfect, cut like butter and one of the best steaks I had since Gallagher's . Double pork chop was so big we had to take it home . So delish I couldn't leave that bad boy there begging to come back with me. Finished off with a cheeky cheese cake drizzled with caramel . Best dinner in a long time . OMG I nearly forgot ONION RINGS !!!! make sure you get a stack you will be thanking me later .

Batter up! I always avoided this place, I thought it would be filled with tourists and crappy food. It's restaurant week in NYC and I'm craving steak. Not Outback crappy meat but a nice cut of Delmonico steak. I saw a few top notch restaurant dinner listings but NYY Steak had a Delmonico for a $15 up charge as well as thick bacon for a starter. NYC restaurant week, for dinner gets you an appetizer, entree, and dessert for $38 bucks. At that price It allows you to try the best NYC area restaurants. (And trust me, I have a loooooong list, NYC rocks!) This restaurant is very close to Rockefeller Center. My thought process is pass, they'll be tourists everywhere. This is so not the case. I walked in on a Thursday Night and saw after work folks enjoying happy hour. And Jeter isn't serving drinks?? Damn, I never get lucky. Starting on deck, I order a nice glass of NYY Cabernet as well as my thick cut bacon starter. The Bacon? Really rich and decadent. Savory. Man on first. My steak ($15 upcharge) is the Delmonico steak with a side salad. Cooked medium thankyouverymuch. The steak, although wasn't as thick as I dreamt about it in my mind, was cooked perfectly and the taste? OMG, so good and it cut like butta. Man steals second. I wasn't thinking about dessert and I ordered the cheesecake. The cheesecake was topped with the fresh fruit was very good. I was going to eat 1/2 the piece but I couldn't stop eating it, it was a triple double!! OMG! Man is rounding the bases, its a home run hit right out of the park! There are huge pictures of the team on the walls, to me its a very classy looking spot. I'm a convert. Final rating: If you're in midtown, NYY Steak should be a top choice

Ok i have to be honest when my boyfriend told me he got a groupon to here I was not looking forward to eating here at all because it seemed so touristy which implied just an ok food. I was so pleasantly surprised how delicious everything was! My boyfriend insists it was one of the best steak he has ever had and I thought the crab cakes was so delicious!
(4)Jessica N.
I have mixed feelings about NYY Steak. The place is absolutely gorgeous..the staff was beyond friendly. I just feel as if right now it is the chain touristy version of a luxury dining establishment. I bought the dinner for two groupon for I believe $80. My boyfriend and I needed to use it before it expired and my boyfriend forgot he had already made plans with another couple for dinner so decided to ask them if they wanted to join us. I called day of for a reservation and had no issue making one. I cleared it with the reservationist, making sure she knew 1/2 of the party had a groupon and it wasn't an issue. We get here, are seated promptly. The Groupon menu was printed on a piece of paper- which I could care less about really, but when the other half of your party has huge leather-bound menus, you feel like you were given the kids menu or something lol. In all fairness, the groupon menu really did have some awesome options and the value is amazing. You truly get a lot of food for the price paid. On to the food: The pretzel buns given about 10 minutes after we ordered which was strange, usually its brought out promptly. They were out of this world. We asked for more (they are served one piece per diner) and were given a different mediocre piece of bread. For cocktails, I had the Bronx Bomber and it was good, too sweet so after two I switched to coors light. My girlfriend asked for a mojito and hated it. Her fiancé asked for a new different drink for her, stated she didnt like the moijito and no question was asked as to why and no offer to discount it or anything...ok first strike. Our appetizers were yummy. I went with the french onion soup, my boyfriend had the caesar salad and our friends shared the steak tartare. All was good until the entrees came out. I went with the filet mignon, my boyfriend the chicken, our friend had the salmon and his fiancé had a pasta dish. All of the entrees beside the pasta came out. The waiter informed us that they were "rolling out new menu items" and the chef tasted her pasta and it was too salty so he wanted to remake the entire thing. Ok cool...I guess. So we are all almost finished with our entrees when her new and supposedly improved pasta comes out. She took a bite and almost spit it. We all tasted a bit of it and it gave salty a new definition. I am the type to over-salt and love it - but I couldn't even chew this. We told the waiter and he apologized, and took that dish off of the bill. He came back and told us they tried it in the kitchen and we were right it was horribly salty. I just don't understand how that happens? The place died down it was us and another table. My boyfriend and I had a dessert included in our groupon so we wrapped it up. Verdict? I would not come here without a groupon.

Service was impeccable as usual. The menu has taken a nosedive. Really disappointed that the lobster mac n cheese is gone. Also not happy to see that the 6oz has been dropped. Ribeye came out without the bone. So most of the quirky details and signature dishes that made this standout against the other steakhouses, in my opinion, have suddenly disappeared. Thick steak bacon was great as a starter. Tough call on this one. Expensive meal for many of the dishes that I had expected to see, but weren't available.

When some friends decided to come into the city to meet me for dinner and picked this restaurant, I was skeptical to say the least. First, while I don't mind the Yankees, I'm not a fan. (Once a Philly girl, always a Phillies girl!) Second, it's in Midtown. What's the problem with that? To me, that means high priced tourist trap. But these are amazing friends so I sucked it up and said okay. We met at the bar where drinks were a bit pricey ($16 for a martini) but I have to admit...it was one of the best martinis I've had. It was called a Blue Something-or-Other, but it was basically a Ketel One dirty martini. The bartender...I forget his name (Shay? Kay? Say?) was wonderful and kept our drinks full and exchanged quips back and forth with a bunch of veteran teachers who are not easily impressed. We loved him. When our reservation came up, we moved upstairs to our table where Andrew Micinowski, our waiter, greeted us. We looked over the menus...pricey, but honestly? Not that pricey for a New York steakhouse. Two of my friends picked the porterhouse for two, I had the ribeye, and my other friend had a filet. While we were waiting, we got talking to Andrew and found out he was from the same small area of Pennsylvania that my friends (and originally I) are from, so that got us gabbing. He then brought the chef out to meet us...who is also from PA. I have worked in the restaurant industry before and have rarely seen the executive chef go out to a table...certainly not in New York City! He then sent us a beautiful salad for the table, "his compliments". What?? In New York City?? Dinner came and the steaks were perfectly done...well done for the porterhouse (I know...horrible!), medium for the filet, and mooing for my ribeye. Each steak was fantastic! The sides of asparagus, macaroni and cheese, and truffle fries were amazing complements to the entrees. As we finished, the director of operations, Michael Salmon, came over to ask how we were enjoying our experience. He spent quite a bit of time chatting with us and we discovered he also has PA ties. Such a small world!! Then Erik Gonzaga, the operations manager, stopped by to see how everything was. By this point my friends and I were looking at each other and thinking, "Crap! They must think we're related to Derek Jeter or something! We're gonna get kicked out any minute!" It was simply unfathomable to us that we were being treated like royalty at this place...but we ate it up for sure! Time for dessert. No one had room, but that didn't stop us from asking Andrew what he would recommend. He said the NYY Steak 151 Volcano would be perfect for the table. Volcano? How could we go wrong? He brought this mound of vanilla bean ice cream covered in ground up Heath bars to the tableside where he poured 151 proof rum over it and lit it on fire. (See picture!) Each of us got a piece that was ginormous and so, soooo good! We had after dinner drinks and coffee where Rodrigo took excellent care of us, making sure everything was filled and refilled. As we finally started to leave after FOUR hours from bar to table, we met Jim Stewart, the director of catering sales, who also wanted to make sure we had an excellent time. (I remember all their names because they all gave us their cards!) I cannot believe what an amazing experience we had here. The food was amazing but it was the service and attention that puts this place over the top in my book. We literally felt like Yankee royalty! (I'm still convinced they acted like this under the mistaken assumption we were related to someone special somehow!) If you want great food and an exceptional dining experience, even if you're not a fan of the Yankees, this is the place to try. I've lived in this city for twelve years and have NEVER had a dining experience like this!

At first blush, NYY Steak seems to be a place that wouldn't be that good just because it is using the yankee name to market itself. However, all the yankee stuff aside (plates with famous yankee numbers and the blue and white color ways of the linens), this is a seriously good place to eat. For this lunch, the wait staff started us off with some warm pretzel rolls. Nice. For the appetizer, I really liked the pairing of the maryland lump crab cake with the fresno chili vinaigrette. The next item that I liked a lot was the steak sandwich. If you aren't that hungry, it can easily satisfy the appetites of two people. However, the salt on the fries wasn't evenly dispersed so that was a little disappointing. We also tried the scallop entree, which was pretty good as well. The presentation seemed a little off, but I appreciated the effort. On the minus side, we had to wait 20 minutes for the entrees. Not sure what happened, but the waitress apologized, so I appreciated the recognition of this lapse. Service was very good and I would come back again. You might experience some slight sticker shock from the prices, but this is worth trying.

Being that my family was visiting NYC for the first time and my brother is one of the biggest Yankee fans I know , I thought it was only suitable I brought them there . Right off the bat the establishment was filled with memorabilia which my brother absolutely loved Restaurant looked polished and service was spot on . Our server came over with their drink menu and gave us serval recommendations on wines and gave us the specials for the evening . All which were just amazing . We were just so excited for the good so we opted to skip the apps and go straight to entrees . The wait was long just because my mother ordered the pork chop well done and given that it's a very thick cut it took longer too cook which was completely understandable . The wait was worth it once the food arrived , the pork chop was just perfect and my mother loved it , brother had the 18oz New York strip and he just loves every bite , i chose the boneless rib eye which had just the right amount of fat to keep the flavor it was a perfect medium rare , my partner had the filet mingon and left the plate clean, we all shared sides that went perfect with every entree. All which were paired with a very light Malbec We finished off your meal with a free dessert (with yelp check in) we chose the NYY steak 151 volcano which was very cool and delicious mountain of coffee bean ice cream covered in Heath bar served with a shot of 151 which of course was lit up in a really cool way . Glad we chose this place everyone left happy and very full .

Yankees and Steak, how can anyone go wrong. A bit on the pricey side to be expected. Bar area downstairs is spacious and can hold plenty. Restaurant splits into levels with the top being the smallest but with a glimpse into the chefs as the prepare. The bacon ap is a must so have your heart attack juice ready. But so worth it. Any steak is very good as well as Lobster Mac and Cheese side. Tends to be more trendy and formal so come to fit the part. Great shots of great Yankee moments drape the space with regular size pics to over 6 foot clear murals. A must visit when close by.

Bloomingdales was having a family and friends sale, so my sister-in-law and I went there for a visit. And then made the trek from Lexington and 61st to NYY Steak. We did get lost on the way there, passed right by it. When we finally got there we were seated at a nice table upstairs. Our waiter was a little off and seemed to just not really want to be there. We had two groupon deals, one for Jack and I, one for his sister and brother-in-law, we were ready to eat. Each couple got two appies, two entrees with a side each and one dessert according to the Voucher. So we ordered PEI Muscles, two beat salads and a tomato mozzarella plate. The portions were big and they appies were really good. For the drinks I had a Russian Mojito, Jack had a Jack N Coke(I think he likes it because it has his name in it), Boris had a beer because they did not have an apple Martini. The cocktails were very watered down, even when I got a floater on my second one. For the entree, I got the short ribs, which I did not like and traded with Jack's Filet Minion. Boris loved his Ahi Tuna and my sister-in-law was just not that lucky. She ordered a salmon with corn. Although we told the waiter that we did not want anything with pork in it, he didn't think it was important enough to tell her that her corn came with bits of bacon. She had a few bites before she realized that there was bacon in it, and she was very upset. The manager came, and was very apologetic when he heard the dilemma. He comped our drinks and ordered her a new salmon without the corn. Sadly enough, the second salmon was terribly raw on the inside and burntly seared on the outside. When we called the waiter over he didn't even need for us to speak, he instantly saw what the problem was. He took away the salmon and they put another one to cook. Although this was very disastrous to say the least, because the manager was willing to compensate for what they lacked in other ways, I gave them a 4 star. He gave us a volcano dessert on the house besides the comped drinks, which was really nice. The volcano dessert was vanilla ice-cream surrounded by almonds. Over it they pour run and fire it up. Loved the presentation and the dessert tasted amazing. We did get a Chocolate cake too. Check out the photos. Would probably come back here.

I've passed by the NYY Steak at Yankee Stadium many times and have only peeked inside curiously to admire its opulence and ask myself why people came to a baseball game to have a sit-down steak dinner. Thus, I was fortunate enough to check out this place using a Groupon deal at the Manhattan location. The entrance is pretty grand, as you immediately enter into the main dining room with a high ceiling and classic Yankee decor all around. However, in classical Empire State style we were whisked upstairs (via a separate elevator?) to the 2nd Fl where I assume the other Groupon diners were. From a service standpoint, this felt silly and pretentious - sure, I could make an assumption that the men in suits pay more downstairs, but is it really worth separating the rest of us during a pretty slow dinner period? Nevertheless, the food was very good. I got the Fried Oysters on the Half-Shell, which would've been better if they didn't make the batter so salty. I tried the Maryland Crab Cake and would recommend that more. Entree - Filet Mignon of course! Medium rare was cooked perfectly and was tender. Only knock is the meat wasn't well-marbled so it would've been juicier and more flavorful. Sides - Brussels sprout hash was tasty and the asparagus was pretty standard. Dessert -can't go wrong with the NY Cheesecake. Overall, solid establishment that may be relying on its Yankee theme a bit too much.

I came to this place on a Saturday night with wifey,. my sister and brother in law. Wouldn't have known about this place if it weren't for Groupon. The decor and the space is beautiful. Right across Rockefeller Center. Warning: parking in this area is tough and meters are til midnight. We had purchased 2 deals for two couples and the manager, Eric, was more than happy to accommodate us. We ordered a variety of appetizer s and entrees and were able to sample the goods. APPETIZER S: beet salad with goat cheese , apricots n walnuts PEI mussels w marinara Tomato s n mozzarella. The appetizers were amazing, particularly the mussels and the presentation of the beet salad, along with the overall taste. As always , see the pictures below. ENTREES: I had Filet mignon, medium , w/garlic mashed potatoes and broccoli, side of sauteed mushrooms. And yes!! It was juicy, cooked right and absolutely scrumptious. Definitely recommend it!! My wife had the braised short ribs which were neither to mine or here liking. It lacked taste and was a bit dry . It was on top of a risotto type dish. I didn't not like it at all. So I wouldn't recommend that. My brother in law had the AHI Tuna which he reported at "great and well cooked" w/sweet potatoes and asparagus. The sides were great as a whole. Big portions and prepared with love. My sister ordered that salmon , which we later found out had bacon in it. She wasnt too happy with b/c prior to ordering we asked the server if there was any pork in any dish and he said "No". We alerted the manager , Eric, and he was more than happy to amend the situation with a new , freshly Cooked salmon. However, when the 2nd salmon came out, it was RAW on the outside , so they got it wrong again!!. The whole table was laughing at this point cuz we felt bad about what happened, as did the manager. They finally got a well cooked salmon dish on the third try and even supplemented us with more sweet potatoes. Eric was a cool guy and even gave us the volcano dessert on the house (check video.). The night was salvaged, the company was great, and the food was great, to say the least, except for the salmon hiccup....not a wild baseball fan, but I dont need to be. This place is a fine dining establishment.

Honestly I would never have come here if they didn't have a Groupon deal. I was pleasantly surprised at how nice the dining experience was! The space is huuuuuuge. Very open interior with a classy vibe and they're not tacky with the Yankee decorations-just a few pictures. We were seated right away and the host and waiter were awesome. Our Groupon was for four people and included an appetizer, entree, side, and 2 desserts between four people. I ordered the beet salad for my appetizer and loved it. The presentation was beautiful and the proportion of beets to goat cheese to broccolini was just perfect. For my entree I got the 8 oz filet mignon. The presentation was boring, especially after seeing the beet salad. It was just mashed potatoes, two pieces of broccoli, and steak. The broccoli was overcooked and lacked flavor. The steak was very good, however. Cooked perfectly to maintain tenderness and juiciness. I had brussel sprout hash for my side and it was both delicious and beautiful. I was too full by the time my cheesecake arrived but I took a few bites and it was also very good. Overall I enjoyed my dining experience but even the price of the groupon was expensive although it was apparently about 50% off. I just do not see how this dinner was worth so much. If it was $30 maybe I would go back but there is no way I am spending $100+ here.

I had been wanting to go to NYY Steak for a while and I was finally able to go with my fiance to celebrate our recent anniversary. SO SO SO happy that we ate here because our experience was exceptional. From the decor, to the service, and the food -- it was all excellent. The restaurant knew we were celebrating our anniversary and when we sat down to our table, our waiter handed us a customized menu that read 'Happy 8th Anniversary' on top. It was very cute and extremely thoughtful. We came during restaurant week and took advantage of the special menu. I ordered the lobster mac and cheese and the 8oz fillet mignon. The lobster mac and cheese had delicious chunks of lobster and was cooked to perfection. My steak was also cooked perfectly and was more than enough for me. For dessert, we opted to share the GIANT ice cream sandwich (served with YooHoo on the side) and we also took home a slice of cheesecake which we ate a few days later. Their cookies and cream dessert can seriously feed a small nation. IT'S HUGE. The cookie was tasty, not too sweet, and went well the vanilla ice cream. It was a perfect ending to our great meal. If you're a Yankees fan, you'll definitely enjoy the details that the restaurant has. It's a beautiful space with pictures of past Yankees displayed on the walls. Even the waiters wear pinstripes. The service here was top notch. Our waiter was so nice, helpful, and refilled our wine glasses constantly. I will most definitely come back here and hopefully I'll make it to the NYY Steak located at the stadium.

I went to NYY Steak with one of my friends for dinner during restaurant week. You get an appetizer, entree, and dessert for $38 each. I ordered the lobster mac & cheese, the pan seared salmon (7 oz) with lemon/corn succotash, and NY cheesecake. All three items were extremely delicious. I would recommend if anything, to get the lobster mac & cheese. My friend ordered the kale salad, filet mignon (8oz), and chocolate mousse. She also enjoyed every item on her dishes. As soon as we walked in, our coats were checked in for free. We were given warm towels for our hands. (It also help with the super cold weather out there). I would go back for more. The bill came out to be $82 and change for the two of us and we rounded it to $100 for tip. There is also a survey at the bottom of the receipt for $20 off of $50 for your next visit. It's worth it!
(5)Johnny Q.
NYY steaks is one of the best steakhouse in nyc. Great service, and friendly staff. Yankee fan or not you'll enjoy this place. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a great steakhouse in nyc, prices may be bit pricey but it's worth the money spent.

I came for happy hour. Great pace to watch sports. Loved the oysters but the fried calamari was over done.

Last night, 10/25/14, I celebrated my 55th birthday at NYY Steak with my wife and special friends. The event was our first time at NYY Steak and it was everything we hoped it would be. The service was great thanks to Anthony who took fantastic care of us. The food was equally impressive and the atmosphere inviting. I recommend NYY Steak to those who love great food, time spent with friends and family and sports (especially baseball).
(5)Nicole M.
We stopped in for a 6PM restaurant week reservation. The staff seated us right away with the menu. For drinks we ordered two double plays which are vodka and grapefruit aka perfection on the rocks. For our apps we got the house salad and Caesar salad. Both were delish. I got the chicken entree and my boyfriend basically inhaled his 6oz filet mignon. Needless to say, neither of us were up for sharing. Everything was DELISH. I could have eaten three plates. Give me the couscous! For dessert, we ate one of the best creme brûlées I have ever had in my life. And it gets better-it comes with not one but TWO chocolate covered pretzels. Perfection. Thank you so much for a wonderful date night-can't wait to come back to sample the full menu!
(5)Deana C.
Loved it! My friend and I had a reservation 6pm. He showed up a few minutes late but the hostesses were super nice and seated us right away. We were immediately provided with hot towels which was a nice surprise. The staff are very nice and very accommodating. We started off with some wine and scallops. The scallops were absolutely perfect; nice and buttery. I ordered the 1/2 roasted chicken and he ordered a steak (of course!) and some creamed spinach. The servings are perfect and everything was absolutely delicious. We had a $75 gift card to use and when you check in on Yelp you get a free dessert and I know that some waiters or waitresses would have been annoyed at that but our waiter was totally cool with it. For dessert we had the chocolate cake and I'm so glad we split it because this slice of cake is about the size of your head. It was beautiful, delicious and perfect.
(5)Pixie W.
Went here last night for dinner as part of the Restaurant Week promotion. First of all, the restaurant is beautiful. The staff is so friendly and warm but the food.....so disappointing. Smallest portions ever. I know that it's Restaurant Week but I have been to other steakhouses where you get more. The bathrooms are clean and filled with pictures of past Yanks BUT, I was disappointed to learn that the mens bathroom had news clippings in frames on the wall while the womens bathroom did not. There are die hard female yankee fans. Why not cater to them too? The best part of the whole meal was the dessert-a brownie sundae that I'm still thinking about this morning. If anything, go for drinks and a late night dessert but skip everything else.
(3)Ryan P.
Top steakhouse in Manhattan. Me and my girlfriend love going to all of the NYC steakhouses, have been to all the top spots, the service sets a new standard and the aged bone-in ribeye for two was second to none. The waiter said their goal is to be the best, I think they are. Also, while the place has a debonair ambiance, go on a night when the Yanks play and the whole place cheers for a moment when they score. Sophisticated and fun.
(5)Maria L.
Came here with some VIP NYY Steak members. VIP (like they have their knives tucked away on the wall behind a glass case). We came here really to stalk our bartender, but aside from that, this place is great! The sliders are bite-sized and juicy! We particularly liked the meat ones. Go Yankees!
(4)Serena N.
A very enjoyable dining experience with delicious drinks, steaks and appetizers. We had made reservations and were seated quickly. They give an option of complimentary breads: pretzel rolls, rosemary and sour dough. The pretzel bread was my favorite. The dirty martini was amazing. They give you a choice of vodkas and even have blue cheese olives! At $18 a piece they aren't cheap but you get what you pay for. The caprese salad was huge as the beef steak tomatoes were the size of my head! I liked the thinly slice red onion as it was a nice touch. The crab cake was fresh and delicious and had a lot of crab not just fillers. The filet mignon was made perfectly and was tender and cut like butter. The onion stack looked more like bagels and was a little on the oily side but was fun to look at and photograph. The mushroom side was chewy and flavorful. They no longer offer the Brussels sprout hash. I didn't care for the chocolate cake as it tasted a little old and seemed like it had been refrigerated for a while. All in all great food and service. This restaurant will set you back about $100/person so make sure you go hungry! They also have a lot of Yankee photographs. The Navy blue theme (waiters wear pin stripe, napkins and chairs are navy blue) runs thru the store and the menu is very Yankee centric (27 wines and Yankee themed cocktails: Yankeetini). The private party area also looked lovely. If you like the Yankees and have a love of baseball you will really enjoy the dining experience here.
(5)C.J T.
Great all around dining experience, delicious meals, looking at great yankee memories framed all around the place with Frank Sinatras music echoeing through the speakers was just perfect. Highly recommend it for any die hard yankee fan in your family.
(5)Marco M.
Great location for another steakhouse and I think they utilized the space well. They didn't overdo it with Yankee artifacts all over, so I was very pleased with that. The butcher downstairs is something to see, so make sure you come hungry. I got a ribeye (28oz) and polished it off by myself, cooked very well (even had my name on the bone :) ). I did the tuna tartare to start with some avocado base which was nice and refreshing and as some sides for the meat, we did the creamed spinach and lobster mac which were OK - nothing to write home about. The tuna and meat were the best things here and I would warn you that during primetime hours, be ready to wait. The service, although very friendly, was extremely slow. I was not in a rush, but it did take about an hour or so to get our DRINKS brought to the table. They did end up cleaning up their act, but this was an average steakhouse for me.
(3)Hong M.
My gf brought me here for my Birthday. She didn't even know it was a baseball/Yankee joint. My favorite team is the Yankees, so it was a nice coincidence. Food was great as was the service. Don't remember what we ordered but I have no complaints. The wine pairing with the steaks were great also. Will come back again!
(5)Wendy M.
Went there for lunch and got the crab cake app, steak sandwich and the scallops. The place wasn't too packed but it still took about 30 minutes before anything arrived. Food wise, the crab cake and scallops were nice and fresh. The steak sandwich was over-sized and could probably be shared between 2 people. It was a little bit on the rarer side as the meat was still stringed together. The side of fries was fried unevenly, with some nice golden crispy ones and some slightly charred ones.
(3)Ari S.
Went here for a friend's 40th. I didn't even know this place existed out of the stadium. First thing's first, you DON'T have to be a Yankees fan to enjoy this place. I'm a Mets girl but good food and impeccable service are more important and they really delivered on both. Also, I think people may have a misconception that this is a theme restaurant in the vein of Planet Hollywood or Hard Rock. Not at all!!! From the pretzel rolls down to dessert, we really enjoyed ourselves. Our server Robert(o?) knew the menu inside out, knew a crazy amount about wine and was genuinely pleasant. Menu isn't huge but you need time to think through how you'll get to taste as much as you can without exploding. And they give you that time. Four of us shared a generous raw bar tower "for 2", a wedge salad and a crab cake. The mignonette that comes with the tower was so delicious, we used it on everything. It was acidic in all the right ways and full of flavor. My friend preordered a 27oz. Rib eye with a long bone and they carved Happy Birthday into it! Do this for someone! We also had some lobster and the porterhouse for 2. The porterhouse was tasty and tender but temperature was off. I also wished they served it in some of the drippings as most steakhouses do. We mentioned it to a manager who stopped to check on us. You would think we said it tasted terrible! She sprang into action and rectified it. We weren't so much complaining as giving feedback but she still went out of her way. Creamed spinach and garlic mashed potatoes were flavorful and the perfect compliment. Dessert included the creme brûlée (with chocolate dipped pretzels rods!!), the cheesecake and the brownie sundae (pretzels and cracker jacks!!). Not inexpensive but definitely comparable to other steakhouses. The decor is not overly masculine as a lot of traditional steakhouses are and I don't usually write about it but even the silverware and china are worthy of a mention. There is memorabilia and pictures but it is done tastefully. All in all, a really unexpected pleasure. Thanks to Robert, Jonarda and the other manager who's name is escaping me right now. You really made it a special night!
(5)MaryEllen B.
Not your average high end steak house! This restaurant is everything the reviews say it is and more. We went on a Groupon... the staff could not have been nicer. The ambience is all Yankees, All day.... love it! The Groupon menu was fantastic. It offered a great sampling of their best appetizers, entrees and desserts. I had the oyster appetizer, fantastic!! The 8 oz filet was seasoned perfectly and cooked to perfection. Everyone in our party loved their food AND the drinks were great too! Will definitely go back, many times!
(5)Disha D.
I seriously had the best steak ever here! The sides were delicious. The staff there was incredible and were extremely attentive to our needs. Will be back again for sure!
(5)Kelly T.
Mark D below really sums of the vibe of the place: yes, it's definitely Yankee-themed but it's not over-the-top and doesn't ruin a weeknight drinks vibe. So, I thought walking in I would either love it or hate it, depending on the kitsch factor. I expected more tackiness. Welp, I'm kinda disappointed but I kinda love this place for drinks at the bar. Til it gets overrun with tourists, like every other place I try to have after-work drinks. Oh, TWENTY SEVEN wines by the glass because.... [________________________].* *Yes, this is a trivia question.

Well, I went to NYY steak with such high expectations as I loved the experience at the location in Yankee Stadium - great food, great service, all around an A+ dinner. So, I decided to make a lunchtime reservation for a work meeting. Arrived at noon, and was seated pretty quickly. I was surprised they put us at a table in the middle of the restaurant given all the open booths, but no real foul quite yet. Our waiter came and went on for about 10 minutes about how a 28 oz porterhouse is a great lunch choice. I've worked in table service, so I know the theories about selling to your table, but this just came off as pushy. He then moved into describing twin lobsters. OK, we get it, but we're going to probably just get sandwiches. Then he said we had to start with the bacon. Lay off, man. It's noon and I am not about to have a three course meal. Next, he disappeared for a good 30 minutes. Not really disappeared, but stood close to our table, and ignored us. The bus boy must have filled our waters at least three times during this period. I made eye contact with him more than once, and he looked at me, our table, and then turned and continued chatting with the other waiters. It's lunch time, we're clearly going back to work, I'd appreciate some sense of urgency. Finally, a different waiter noticed our distress, and asked if everything was okay. I said, no, it's not, we'd like to order at some point. Our waiter finally came back and said he did not want to interrupt us. What does that even mean? Are we supposed to sit in silence until we order? When the food finally came, an hour past the time we sat down, it was not even good. I had the chicken sandwich- the chicken was so dry, I could barely eat it. In fact, I left half of it behind. The bacon was cold and the avocados were soggy. All around, not good. And the coleslaw side reminded me of the slop they serve on Big Brother. #terrible. Again, it took about 20 minutes and me waving my hand for the waiter to realize we were done eating since he was back to chatting. While he cleared our plates I gave him my credit card to speed things up. After two hours, and still hungry after my half eaten lunch, I was ready to leave. He was totally oblivious, and never once apologized. I am very disappointed, NYY Steak.

Excellent restaurant ! Our food was delicious , great atmosphere and staff was too notch. We had shrimp cocktail and bacon for apps ... Delicious ! Bacon cooked perfect with a slight maple glaze. Next was filet and strip steak, again cooked perfect and tasted great. Finished off the night with the cookies and cream desert ... Wow!! Tremendous size and delicious .. Pictures I posted on the yelp site don't do it justice ! Actually received the desert free by checking in with yelp. Our sever Robert was fantastic and took care of us to the T's. Def going back !

The large filet was cooked perfectly. Service was fine. Everything is ala carte. Cookies and cream dessert was good. It was an expensive meal but a fun experience.

After reading the great reviews on Yelp I expected a fantastic experience and brought my friends on a Groupon for 4. First of all the hostesses were very confused with the count of 4 people! They kept asking if we were 4! Hmmm, the reservation was made for 4 and there we were 4 - couldn't they count??? Then the waiter - I guess he was in training otherwise I can't understand the incompetence - broke our beer bottles and sprayed us with beer. After cleaning up we still were sitting on broken glass underfoot. Ok, I could forgive the unforgivable service, where men were served first and ladies after, where my party couldn't understand a word our waiter was saying, if the food was excellent, but, alas, IT WAS NOT! Although we were sitting right next to the kitchen, crab cake came out lukewarm and entrees as well. I like my food hot, sorry! And only filet mignon was good, asparagus was overcooked, wild mushrooms were inedible. I don't understand how such an overpriced restaurant with bad service can have glowing reviews! If you don't mind spending $300 to get tepid, unexciting food, then go for it!

Very classy without feeling pretentious Steakhouse. Great for dinner or after-work drinks. (The pizza and Yankee Mule is a must try here)

Went back about a month ago. I must say, I was very impressed......things were different this time....I'm sure I was under the weather last time I went,,,,,,great job to Michael, and the staff. Steak was totally on point, medium rare, as I asked for it.......

Good but not outstanding With a Yankees back restaurant and the price point this restaurant is at, I was expecting something a bit more special food wise. I went to this restaurant with a groupon deal. I am not sure if that effects the quality or quantity of the food but please bare this in mind. The deal was for a party of two and included two sides, each a main, and a shared desert. I had the fried oysters in hollandaise sauce while my date had the thick cut bacon. The bacon dish was leaps and bounds better. There are three strips covered in a light coating of syrup. The fat that was apart of it was cooked in a way that it melted in my mouth without being chewy. The oysters seemed to lack care in how it was battered. The batter was heavily coated with barely any oyster texture or flavor to shine through. The hollandaise sauce I think would have complimented it well if the batter was lighter; since it wasnt it didnt seem to work. Our main dish was the 8oz filet mignon at medium rare. The steak temperature came out perfect and was super tender. It seemed to lack enough seasoning so a lot of table salt was added. The mashed potatoes with cherry tomatoes was nice but wished they had some/any butter in it. The sides we had were creamed spinach and truffled fries. The consistancy of the fries were perfect but I had a hard time tasting the truffle. The parmesan that was on top helped but there didnt seem to be enough of it. The creamed spinach was ok but didnt seem too special. It could have been more creamy. The shared dessert was the chocolate cake. The portion size, even for both of us was refreshingly massive. It was accented with strawberry,raspberry, whip cream and blueberry. The consistency of the cake was a bit different than what I am used to. Being a big chocolate cake fan, I either expect the cake to be fluffy or dense. This cake was a bit in-between with the mouse the same consistency. I think I would give this place another shot if the price point was a bit lower, but being that its a bit costly, there are better options elsewhere.

Even if I wasn't a lifelong Yankee fan this place would get 5 stars from me. My girlfriend and I went for dinner during restaurant week and everything from the atmosphere to the service to the food was excellent. Our server recommended the Double Play cocktail which is vodka with mint and other ingredients. It was very refreshing on a hot August day. For appetizers we got the garden and Caesar salads and they were delicious. For our main course my girlfriend enjoyed the roasted chicken with vegetable cous cous. I stole a tomato off of her plate when she wasn't looking and she got very upset so I can only assume it was very tasty. My entree was the 6oz filet mignon with garlic mashed potatoes. The steak was hot, juicy and delicious, and cooked perfectly. Despite the excellent appetizers and entrees, dessert stole the show. The creme brûlée was fantastic. Much larger than your average portion, the creme was creamy (I know that sounds obvious but it's amazing) and the chocolate covered pretzels were the best I've ever had. To go along with the great food was great service. I never felt as if we were ignored or forgotten. In fact, a couple managers came to ask how our meal was going which I always appreciate. We will definitely be going back to try the regular menu, especially the porterhouse with a bone the size of my forearm and chocolate chip cookie ice cream sandwich the size of my head (I'm fairly large to put it into perspective). Let's go Yankees!

Came here on a groupon deal , outstanding foods and service . Definately going back soon .
(5)Arlene Y.
Came here with my coworker for restaurant week. We both ordered different things. For appetizers I had the chilled corn soup with crab meat salad and she had the warm buns with bacon. Both delicious. For the entree I had the skirt steak with summer salad and she had the pork tenderloin with corn salad and peach chutney. Delicioius! Pork was really tender and not dried out. My steak was so flavorful and cooked perfectly medium rare for me. Dessert I had the strawberry rhubarb crisp and she had the brownie sundae. My crisp was a little too sour for me but that's probably how it's supposed to be. Her sundae was so much fun. It had cracker jacks and pretzels in it too! The portions were very decent. Even with side green salads on entree, I was stuffed in the end. The restaurant itself is beautiful. Subtle Yankee colors and very spacious with seating on different levels like a stadium. Nicely done memorabilia around the restaurant. Our waiter wasn't as warm and friendly as I would have liked and he didn't ask if we wanted any coffee with our dessert. Being a Mets fan, I really didn't want to like it, but I did!
(4)Gina N.
This place is a Home Run. We had exceptionally great service from the entire staff. We both had perfectly cooked filets with asparagus & mushrooms. My crab cake app was excellent. The ny cheesecake was a perfect ending. We will definitely be coming back next time we are in NYC.

Why does one go to a steakhouse boasting four $-signs, located in the heart of Manhattan? Because that person can understandably expect that between the service, the ambiance, and--especially--the food, AT LEAST two of the three will be worth the premium. In my experience at NYY Steak, all three of these elements were unacceptable. In fact, they were laughable. First of all, the four of us waited 35 minutes past our 7:30 reservation time to be seated (it was a Wednesday night, btw). The hostess and assistant manager were annoyingly inauthentic in their apologies and insulting in their reasoning for the delay. "The party ahead of you is taking longer than expected." they said. You mean to say that there was one single table picked out specifically for my reservation? This is a 200-seat restaurant!!!! The waiting didn't end there. 45 minutes after we placed our orders, I asked to speak to the manager (remember, it's been almost an hour and a half since we walked in). He came over and went straight to "would you like some free dessert?" If he was any better at being a jackass he should've asked "would you like some hospitality?" Despite the blatant dishonesty, ignorance, and Yankee Stadium-like fracas, all could be forgotten with a delicious steak dinner. Alas, all would NOT be forgotten. The $60 "signature" bone-in rib-eye was under seasoned, tough, and halfway to cold. My friend's petit filet was charred. Another's roasted chicken looked dry from across the table. And to top it all off, the waitress asked if we wanted to "order some dessert." Laughable, right? If you're looking for a restaurant with some gimmicky, home team decor, then maybe NYY is for you. But if you want to have a special meal with good steak and enjoy good company (and eat at a reasonable hour), then DO NOT DINE HERE! Lastly, as we were walking out, we bumped into another patron who could not wait to strike up small talk and vent about his equally horrible experience!
(1)Jenny C.
My cousin had purchased a groupon deal for this restaurant. The staff was pleasant and always helpful. The Yankees theme was interesting and definitely an experience. We ordered the crab cakes and bacon for appetizers. Then for the main course we tried the fillet mignon and pork chops with cream spinach and fries. The food was just alright nothing memorable.
(3)Ben D.
Much better than expected steakhouse fare. With the stadium logo and tv's plastered to the wall behind the bar, it's hard to believe that this place an anything more than a sports bar. However the bone in ribeye can hold it's own with the best spots in the city and the creamed spinach is arguably the best.
(3)Nicole M.
Amazing!!! NYY Steakhouse was one of the few "modern" steakhouses I've been too & I have nothing but positive feedback! The food was great, lobster mac and cheese was to die for, but the service and atmosphere made the dining experience THAT much more incredible! It was moderately priced and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking to enjoy good food, great service and a wonderful atmosphere. Ps- the Yankee memorabilia and pics also added such a special touch to the restaurant!!
(5)Sheri S.
The location is convenient for a business lunch or a high-end lunch. I have eyed this place since it opened and finally got a chance to go here for lunch. Ayana the Hostess was really nice and accommodating. When we were seated the staff brought out a nice warm towel for us to wipe our hands. I LOVED THAT! It felt so nice and fresh. The warm bread came with two options the cheese combo was cool and the hot spice and olive mix was also really good. Lobster Mac and Cheese- The shell kind of pasta when I usually get the tube kind, but considering that it is seafood I kind of like the idea of the shells. Asparagus-Plain, long and tasteless in my opinion, but what else to do you expect from Asparagus? Ribeye- Done medium well and I requested that my name be the personalization The scallops were really good and the sauce that came with it was really good. As a yelper when you "check in" and order an Entree you get a free dessert. I chose to have the NY Cheesecake. It was so good. I loved the graham cracker combo and the strawberry syrup.
(5)Steve K.
This is actually a very good steak house. I thought it would be cheesy & over priced just because its a NY Yankee restaurant, but not at all. Well..... It was an average rate for a steak in midtown. But the atmosphere was great as was the food. And the service is great too. Definitely give it a try, you won't be disappointed.
(4)Chayana R.
What can I say? The food was everything lol. Mmmm. I can still savor the food. We ordered the bacon, tomato & mozarella & crab cake for starters. The ny strip, double play, filet mignon & pork chops for entrees. Ofcourse we had to try the cookie and cream desert. We won the chocolate truffle for valentines day. The ambiance was nice & the staff was very welcoming and attentive. Will be returning.
(5)Karina F.
LUNCH review only. June 2014. 3.5 Stars NYY nicely decorated inside, high ceilings, comfortable seating. Prompt service. Ordered the NYY Steak Tomato Salad ($22) with grilled medium rare ribeye but it was a little tough. Friend had the NYY Steak Sandwich ($21) also with grilled ribeye which he devoured and enjoyed very much. I'd like to come back to try the NYY Steak Burger and crab cake sandwich. Steak ranges from $48-$62 if you're interested.
(3)Sara M.
The director of sales for my territory took me here when we were both in town for dinner to vet it out for future events. I would give it 3.5 stars. Our server was quite pleasant and attentive. The space is open and modern, with the Yankees theme pervasive throughout. We each had a glass of wine and the Caesar salad was crisp, not heavily dressed. I would have liked anchovies but I was surprised that there was a small selection of prime steaks and since the ribeye was much too large, I settled on the NY strip. Unfortunately, they switched our steaks so I had to request a new one. It was served to me by the manager, who waited to ensure it was a perfect medium-rare. It was a decent piece of meat but perhaps I just prefer the flavour of ribeye since I felt it was slightly lacking. The asparagus was very straight-forward. We opted out of trying a dessert since we were quite full. I was glad that I didn't pay my own money to dine here as it wasn't to par with the price.
(3)David F.
I only take time to write reviews if a restaurant is memorable - be it good or bad. NYY steak was memorable in a good way because it's the way all establishments should operate. I took my best friend out tonight for his birthday. I've been to the one at the stadium at it was the best steak I ever had. Better than Lugers, Del Frisco, STK, Parlor, etc. Unfortunately, this time, we had to send both of ours back as they were cooked wrong, and when you're shelling out $75/steak you want it cooked right. When the second ones came my friend's was perfect and mine was a bit chewy. I ate most of it anyway. Long story short, we ordered over $300 worth of food/drinks and when the bill came it was $60. the manager came over and apologized and explained the check was due to our dissatisfaction. Needless to say, we will definitely give NYY Steak another shot considering how forthright they are. When things aren't perfect, they are.
(5)Daniel S.
Came here on a groupon and it was the first time I was treated as if I was on a "groupon". Prior to telling our waiter we had a voucher, he was so generous and full of joy- once he found out we had a voucher, it was as if we didn't exist. Food was really good though, from the fried oysters to the filet- flawless. Although, the truffle parm fries did not do good things to me as I just had them for leftovers and once again my stomach is in shambles! Definitely would think to come back if I wasn't treated like a groupon customer or if the fries didn't screw with my stomach.
(3)Ana B.
Absolutely divine, from the service to the food. The staff was very attentive and friendly even though we came here with a groupon. Some establishments once you have a groupon their service changes, but not here. The attention to detail was phenomenal, if you are celebrating a special occasion make sure you let them know when making your reservation. As far as the food, I can't remember when was the last time I enjoyed my food as much as I did here. Everything is so flavorful and cooked to perfection, I will definetely come back! If you decide to come here make sure you ask about the tour of the place.
(5)Christina W.
My friend is a Yankee fan and had wanted to check this place out so we went! The food was fantastic (chips with ranch dressing at the bar and tuna tartare) and so were the drinks. All of the staff were very friendly, knowledgeable and attentive. The decor was great. They took a sports theme and incorporated it into a classy, comfortable environment! Yes, it is a little pricey but I totally recommend that you visit once in awhile and experience it because it is so worth the price!
(5)Lorelei D.
Great dirty olive martini. Loved the pork chop and you absolutely have to try the crab bisque, the bread with dijon cheddar butter, the creamed spinach and the garlic mashed potatoes. The bacon is awesome too.
(3)Kristen M.
Exquisite service. Staff went above and beyond. Must tries: bacon! tuna tartare, filet mignon. all amazing, will definitely be back. love the Yankees décor.

NYY Steak overall score: 89 Ever since moving back to NYC, my dad and I have been talking about hitting the relatively new New York Yankees Steakhouse in midtown. We were finally able to set up a visit (they're only open on weekends during dinner hours, and my parents usually visit during lunch hours on weekends, so we had to reassess the normal visit routine). So my parents came in with my oldest nephew. It was hotter than Derek Jeter's balls in a Phoenix double header that day. My wife, my parents, my nephew and I were all sweating our asses off. We were walking around Central Park in the lead up to the reservation when out of nowhere it began to pour. Rain was coming down hard, as if Poseidon and Zeus were having a golden shower party in the sky. We ran out of the park and, lucky for us, a bus was heading down 5th Avenue just as we exited. The bus let us off just around the corner from the restaurant, where we were finally safe from the downpour. Check out the count below: Flavor: 8 I ordered the 27oz long bone rib eye. It was perfectly cooked, nice and juicy, tender, and didn't have too much inedible grizzle on it. However I felt like it was just a hair under-seasoned. Nothing worth complaining about in the slightest. The most awesome part about the steak, for me, was the custom etching of your name into the bone. Upon taking our order, Michael, our awesome waiter, asked my father and I what text we wanted etched into our rib bones. WHAAAT?!??!!! THIS IS AWESOME!!! Check it out!!! This shit is now on my (Mickey) mantel at home.
(4)Reaz K.
I'm giving this place 4 stars for the staff! They're amazing! I didn't have dinner at this location but I did eat at the Yankees steakhouse in Yankees stadium. The food was great but there are better steakhouses in NY for the price you are paying. Not worth paying $$$$ for this place. But definitely go and have a drink at the bar. The guys will take care of you
(4)Karina S.
Wow! I was pleasantly surprised with this place. I picked this out for Valentines day and I thought it was a cheesy/cute move given that my boyfriend is a huge Yankees fan. I honestly wasn't expecting anything remarkable but boy was I wrong! The ambience is beautiful! Very classy place. The staff are extremely nice and knowledgable about the team and what their usual "go-to meals" are. Now as for the food, Mmm mmmm Mmm! I can't even fathom how delicious everything was! From the lobster, to the steak, to the different dippings they gave with the bread. And don't even get my started on the dessert! Huge, and I mean huuuuge slice of chocolate cake! Must must go!
(5)Kelvin Z.
The food proportion here is very generous. I like how they could put your name on the menus and engrave name on your long steak bone. The steak was pretty good. The bacons were awesome. Their desserts are good and yummy. The atmosphere is nice and quiet. Definitely good for a nice steak day. Get ready to empty your wallet.
(5)Dan G.
Well. How to start. First, we arrived a few minutes in advance, on a Saturday night, and were greeted by the host. We were the only individuals with reservations. Then, we were told that if we had to have a table immediately, we could sit at a high top at the bar, but that we would have to wait "for a real table". A bit strange as we had reservations and the restaurant was not even busy. So we waited 10-15 minutes with the hosts awkwardly standing around. We were finally seated and given a waiter who asked if we wanted still sparkling or bottled water, who then disappeared. We then were told we had a new waiter who once again asked the same question and disappeared. Finally a wait staff came to ask a 3rd time, taking approximately 20 minutes to even receive water. At this point, we're a bit weirded out that such a "nice" restaurant doesn't seem to communicate at all. While we're waiting to order, we start looking around. If you're over 50, male, at least 200lbs, and bald or balding, and are a huge Yankees fan, GO HERE! If not, this place is fucking awkward. Ultimately, we ordered, the steak was 'ok' (nowhere near the quality of an ACTUAL steakhouse in New York) and the mashed potatoes were actually pretty good. However, mid meal I found a hair in the food, and that was it. I was done. To summarize, awkward restaurant for 99% of public unless you're looking for a restaurant where the New York Yankees theme and overpriced mediocre to poor quality food is the goal. If you're looking for: - high quality food - a fun upbeat atmosphere - a nice romantic restaurant DO NOT COME HERE and choose a real steakhouse.
(1)Joy Y.
I went here for my birthday and it was amazing!!!! They give you personalized menus for birthday and they do a few other things but I think you should go and experience it! If you do go, ask for Fernando and his team to be your waiting. This really makes the experience over the top! The service is exceptional and Fernando makes your night memorable. The food was great! I had the filet with blue cheese and macaroni and cheese which were both really good. This is one birthday I will remember for years to come and I will be back!!!
(5)Keely G.
Stopped in for a quick lunch and honestly didn't get the connection between the name and the Yankees until we were seated and saw NYY pics everywhere. Our waiter, "Michaelangelo" was very attentive and told us the answer to anything at NYY Steak was "absolutely!" Of course, being from LA, I put that to the test and asked him if he was a Dodger fan. ; ) He begrudgingly said, "absolutely!" I should have asked if we could eat for free... As for the food, it was too early for a full on steak induced food coma, so we ordered the chicken sandwich (really good) and the steak sandwich (not as good... and cooked to the incorrect temperature, which is unforgiveable at a steak house). I felt like the management cared more about the tables around us (with big ticket food items), as they asked the people at the tables all around us how everything was, but didn't seem to care about our experience. We also had to ask multiple times for bread when everyone around us got it unsolicited. Final score: Pretty good tasting food & Michaelangelo our server was great, but I didn't appreciate being virtually ignored by everyone else.

Visited September 24,2014. I have been meaning to post about our night at NYY Steak. NYY Steak tops our lists of favorites. My 14 year old son and I saved for a long time and took a trip to NYC to watch Derek Jeter's last game. To my surprise my son made reservations at NYY Steak. He usually treats me to dinner on Wednesdays but it is more like Outback Steakhouse for the 2 for $25.00 special!! He made reservations that morning when we got off the plane. We decided to walk to the restaurant and we got lost along the way, we called to let them know and thankfully they helped us make our way there. When we arrived the steakhouse we where greeted with a warm welcome and then shown to our seat. It was perfect window seat and when the server placed our menus down there was a Happy Birthday Message on the top of the menu for me! That made my evening. We decided we were going to try everything on the menu. We started off with the Crab Bisque! It was rainy and cold so it was the perfect start of a delicious meal. The server suggested some menu items and we met a beautiful family who was sitting next to us and they recommended the NYY Steak Bacon!! That was the best Bacon I have ever tasted! I have yet to have anything compare. For our entree my Son and I chose the Filet Mignon. The food was prepared to perfection and was out of this world. We finished our meal with the Cookies and Cream and Creme Brulee. My son fought to of fish the colossal cookie with Ice cream. Everything was far above our expectations. When I looked at my watch I noticed we spent 2 and a half hours there! It was truly a awesome evening! One thing I have to mention our Serve, He was spot on with his recommendations and he was so attentive to our needs. He was filled with stories and Yankee history. He also made my son feel important and thought it was awesome to be taking care of me the way he does. I wish I could remember our servers name because he was truly a compliment to the restaurant. The beautiful family I mentioned above,we spoke with them the entire evening. They loved our story and we enjoyed talking about the Yankees and sharing stories. Our server brought the tab over and handed it to me and my son quickly grabbed it and said Im treating my mom tonight. Well he thought that was so cool and asked my son how do you make your money. My son replied I umpire baseball. the family next to us was asking my son questions and such... My son pulled out is wallet and as he did the server was standing behind him and said tonight the meal is on this gentleman. Little did we did we know the beautiful family next to us paid for our meal. We were so thrilled and grateful we hugged them all with thanks. They shared they have never done that and have always wanted to and they chose us. My son and I left feeling so grateful. No one has ever made us feel that special. What a great evening. Thank you NYY Steak for a beautiful meal and THANK YOU to the Beautiful Family we may not know your name but you will remain in our hearts forever! **side note my son has saved that money that should have gone to the meal in hopes that one day he can do the same for someone else.

Nicely decorated steak house with an extensive wine list. Yes, I'm impressed! Go Yanks!!!

NYY or New York Yankees is a shrine to the Baseball Team. It is owned by the Yankees and is full of memorabilia. I'm guessing its the ideal destination for a fan... I know nothing about baseball but still had a fabulous experience. We came here for steak on our last evening in NYC and we were certainly not disappointed. they have a room in the basement where they age the beef and you can see the meat hanging there just waiting to be ordered. From the moment we walked in the door service was amazing. Everyone asks your name and then continues to uses it which is a little bit strange.. but I guess some people like to feel 'special'. We requested a 'quiet' table which is quite a rarity in New York City due to the volume of its residents but they did their best to accommodate us and we got a table on the second floor, which was substantially quieter than the ground floor where a loud group were gathered at the bar. Our waiter was charming, and everything about the evening was super efficient. The only thing I would criticise would be the bread choice. There wasn't any. It was pretzel roll or pretzel roll. It was OK, but as it's not even close to my fave bread I would of liked a choice. We decided not to have a starter as we really wanted to enjoy the steaks and so i ordered a filet mignon with lobster tail and my husband ordered the strip steak. We had a side of onion rings and steak fries. The onion rings were served as a tower and were visually quite impressive. They probably could of fed a family of five and so needless to say we didn't finish them... They were excellent though. Fresh, hot and crispy. No complaints. We managed to finish our steaks and in a moment of madness my husband ordered a dessert. I can't remember the name but it was almost as big as my head. It was two enormous (very sweet) biscuits with ice-cream in between. Like a monster ice-cream sandwich. We probably ate about a 10th of that. It was so incredibly sweet and a few spoonfuls were as much as I could manage. All in all a great experience - even if you aren't a Yankees fan. anexpatwife.com/the-rest…

Nice decor and reservations were not a problem. The place is huge. Service was friendly and attentive. Unfortunately, the food just was average at best. For the price (and it is pricey). Just not worth it.
(2)Bahador S.
My waiter was only interested in pushing items on the menu and increasing the bill. In the beginning, he was super friendly and warm, talkative, etc. Then, as soon as he felt like I hadn't ordered enough, he became cold and rude. Management needs to address this. The food is not good enough to tolerate offensive and rude service.
(1)N A.
Everything about this restaurant was great! Excellent service and top quality food. Great selection of appetizers -the muscles were amazing!!! Filet mignon was cooked to perfection, side dishes were tasty and the desert was great! Loved this steakhouse and will definitely be back.
(5)taejun w.
The experience wasn't the worst in the city but they failed in two major areas. 1. The service was courteous but slow! Hate to leave a negative review for a kind server, but you get paid to do your job well... Not being nice. 2. I ordered a filet med. rare and sent it back because it very well done. It was worth it because it was the only item served that was warm. We all thought kitchen couldn't time their food and left them under a lamp or something because my steak came out more well than well. We also ordered dessert here which was a mistake because scooping ice cream takes a full 20 mins here. I recommend their bar, pretty good drinks but a little pricey. In all we tried the Mac n cheese (would not get), button mushroom (not warm - would not get), garlic mashed (good when warm), filet mignon (the second steal was good!).
(2)BOBBI C.
I had the privilege of enjoying a lovely dinner at NYY Steak. My dining experience was awesome. I started with a Caesar salad (just the right amount of dressing) and then served the hugest salmon filet ever along with creamed spinach, potatoes, mushrooms and fancy bacon as my side dishes. Don't forget to order the New York cheesecake. The service was top notch and the drinks were fantastic. Come VERY hungry and be prepared, unless you have a huge appetite, to take home a doggie bag.
(5)Christie K.
Never going back. Absolutely horrible service. This must have been an off night for them, but for such a reputable restaurant are we wrong to expect quality service and food anytime we go? My husband goes here for work lunches, and loved it so much he took me here for Valentine's. Our waitress never came to check in with us. We had to send back our soup and onion rings. It was taken back without an apology but with a total attitude. My husband got the wrong steak delivered, and we knew because they engrave your name on the bone. No one gave us bread or water. We had to constantly ask for it. Staff were just like young kids with no professionalism. Go to del friscos or capital grill down the street. Sorry Yankees, we are most likely never going back.
(1)Jason F.
My wife and I came for the half price bar menu and enjoyed the filet sliders. The staff was great. They even gave us complimentary tickets to the Army vs Uconn gave at Yankee Stadium.
(5)Patrick M.
This place is more of an attraction than a reasturant, and I mean that as a compliment. Besides that point there was nothing that really made this place stand out to me. There's definitely better steakhouses to spend your money at but if your a Yankee fan like me it's worth the vist. The one truly positive thing I can say about this place is the staff was solid. From coat check to the bar to the waiters, we received quality service. Put them up a full point in my book.
(4)Alexander D.
Last Saturday my lady and I went to nyy steak. We were introduced by a waiter name barry who was a very charming sincere and pleasant man. His customer service was so energizing my lady and I ended up having a perfect dinner and a perfect evening. Guys If you want to impress your lady take her to NYY STEAK and ask for BARRY. The rest is taken care of.
(5)Anthony D.
Great Yankee ambiance, food was above average, service was great. The Yankees know they are trying ot break into a competitive steak market in NYC and know they have to perform. Resturant has great decor and food is par with most of the upper echelon of steakhouses in NYC. I was told about the private dining experience while dining there and would definitly consider returning to experience that side of the restaurant.
(4)Gregory C.
Like the original at Yankee Stadium in the Bronx, this place is on point. From the glass of Freemark Merlot ($13) to the bowl of crab bisque ($13) to the shrimp cocktail ($19) to the bone in ribeye ($58) to the petit filet mignon ($43) to the side of lobster mac & cheese ($15) to the 151 Volcano ($15) to the cappuccino ($5.50), all were on point. Outstanding.
(4)Wendy P.
This place has the wow factor that I love from the bar, paintings and atmosphere. It's so beautiful that your meal tastes extra special because of your surroundings. The bf and I shared fried oysters - yum, and tuna tartare...both were delish. My petite filet was cooked medium rare and his lamb chops were medium and both were tasty plates. The lobster mac and cheese was disappointing the shells and consistency were off. Our waitress was knowledgable, sweet and always around when you needed another drink. Our dessert was so huge we took it to go and devoured the rest the following evening. Great place to have on your radar.
(4)Manny F.
Excellent!!!!! The food was absolutely great. Michelle, our server was excellent. Very attentive to our needs. Treated our six year old son as if he was an adult. Very caring of our needs and concerns. Very polite. Will defiantly go there again. The Yankeetini a must to have. Thanks Michelle for the recommendation. Ribeye steak very tasteful, as for the bacon appetizer it was amazing. Crab cake is a must. As I said before....... EXCELLENT

Just in case, I am a red Sox fan but the service is par none! Way to go Rafael Adorno!!!!!

My wife and I are Yankee fans. Wanting to go to a nice restaurant for our 19th wedding anniversary, I decided to make a dinner reservation at NYY Steak. The service was fantastic. Rachel, our server was incredible. The manager came by as well to check on us. Rachel took a picture of us and put it in a NYY Steak frame as a memento of our visit. The food - for an appetizer I ordered the Crab Bisque which was outstanding. For the main course, I ordered their signature bone-in ribeye and my wife ordered the Double Play - petite filet and lobster tail. My steak was the best steak I have ever had in my life...and I've been to the top steakhouses in the city! I can't wait to return to NYY Steak!

This is a super cool place for Yankee fans! All the waiters know interesting facts about the Yankees! But it's super pricey and my medium rare steak was raw in the middle and burnt on the outside!! But the lamb chops were amazing! Super fantasy restaurant and a lot of the players actually eat there!

Its a NY Yankee themed Steakhouse: staff wear pinstriped shirts, linens are Yankee blue & white, side plates are baseball diamond shaped and pictures of Yankee players line the walls. Despite these accents, the Yankee theme isn't intrusive. The lights are lit to a normal level and the ceiling is huge which gives the place a very open, airy and contemporary feel as opposed to other steakhouses Ive been to which are dimly lit and old world feeling. We ordered a few appetizers to start: tuna tartare served over avocado (very good), beet & goat cheese salad (very good), tossed salad (average, i mean its salad), and a crab cake (very good...not fishy at all). I opted for the Ahi Tuna dinner (i know, its a steakhouse), but it was a weeknight and I didn't want to crush my stomach. Tuna was good, seared, and fresh. The sides were typical of a steakhouse: creamed spinach...which is a favorite of mine, was solid. We also ordered the smashed sweet potatoes which were good. The onion ring stack was OK, probably my only gripe....they are HUGE and battered which ultimately turned into a mostly hallow ring of fried batter with a little tiny shriveled onion inside. There are better options. In the end I would say this is a decent addition to the steakhouse options of midtown. Certainly has a more commercialized feel being part of the Yankee corporate umbrella but the food was good.

Had a fantastic time last night at a company function! Although the place is baseball themed, the design is tasteful! As for the steak, if you like a medium well, order a medium. Two steaks were sent back. Other than that, the portions are good, the seafood is delicious, the sides were amazing, the service was great and I am actually planning to go back to celebrate someone's birthday! Experience it!

went for a work team celebration. good food, im a yankee fan so i liked the yanks memorabilia, but vibe wasn't that great and food was pricey for what you actually get in my opinion. def not a bad option though.

I have used yelp to preview many restaurants. This is the first time I have ever written a review. Went to NYY steak after seeing a matinee. Decided to go here because I had a really good groupon deal. It was a big mistake. The deal called for each of us to order an appetizer. We got the mussels and crab cake. Mussels were horrible, big huge fat mussels that tasted funny. The crab cake was ok, not great. Entrees we ordered the filet mignon and beef short ribs. The short ribs and polenta were so bland, really bad. The steak was ordered medium and came out like a hockey puck. We never send food back but had to. The next one came back cooked on outside but raw on inside. The manager tried to make a comment that we really wanted a medium well. He was smug and made it seem like we screwed up. The sides and dessert were good but the stars of the meal were bad. Don't be fooled by the groupon.

Had my birthday here, loved it, classy, good food, the service was great. I would highly recommend this restaurant.

Great personalized service. Amazing food. Could use softer bread and better bonded butter/mustard and tapenade spread. Cool meat locker, go for a tour. Great looking humongous chipwich but no room after dinner! Will go back for it...and a blue drink!

Ok, I seriously thought "Yankees Steak"?! That sounds like it would be horrible and rubbery. Steak houses don't appeal to me at all. I am not a big meat person and I try not to eat too much animal protein. Went to an event there and tried their shrimp, oysters, lobster and steak. The seafood was all fine, but Oh.My.God. The steak was AMAZING. I had to go back for more. All the rules were tossed aside for that night. It was some of the most tender and flavorful steak that I've ever had. Can't wait to go back!

More like 3.5 stars. The Good: Service is astounding. Superbly nice and accommodated my request for special seating. Came for my bf's bday and they printed out special menus for him that said happy birthday on it and really made him feel special. Also checked up on us at the appropriate times and filled our drinks as needed. As far as the food goes, i loved the little warm pretzel rolls (?) they gave with the mustard spread. Steaks are quite generous and if you get the crazy rib eye thing, they personalize the bone with whatever you want written! Good gimmick. Steaks are tasty, but oversalted. The outside is also a bit TOO charred. If they just dimmed down the salt and their cooking temp, I think it could be a good competitor for steakhouses in nyc. For dessert, we had the volcano thing and the creme brulee. Both were awesome and again the volcano thing is just a great gimmick. Who doesn't like a little after-dinner fire show? The heath crunch crust is quite addictive and pairs well with the vanilla ice cream. DON'T EAT THE LEFTOVER MELTED ICE CREAM. It's pretty much pure rum. lol. The Bad: Ordered the seafood tower for 2 as the appetizer. Eh. Seafood wasn't all that tasty. It was a decent quality but just didn't have that oomph of sea freshness that I love. Along with the steak, we also ordered the mashed potatoes and creamed spinach. Mashed potatoes didn't have much flavor nor much substance. It seemed very bland and on the thinner side (maybe using milk instead of cream?). The creamed spinach was overwhelming sweet and had too much nutmeg. The Ugly: PRICE. Very steep. Not a place I would visit more than once every 2-3 years, especially if the food isn't quite up to par. And something that I thought would be obvious: we had plenty leftover from the ribeye with bone. We asked to pack it up to take home and instead of giving us the entire steak in one piece with the nicely personalized bone, they chop of whatever they deem edible from the bone and just give the meat. Some of the best stuff is eaten right off the bone!!! WTF!!! I'm pretty sure there was plenty of meat left on that bone. plus the personalized bone is cool to take home as a souvenir. Seems like such a simple thing, no?

Super food! Service was fantastic from Kyle! He helped us make our way through the menu as well as the Resturant it self. Kyle made the experience for us. Nice wine, great food. We will be back.

I heard about this place through a groupon deal. We were given a groupon menu so our choices were limited but none-the-less the food was amazing. We ate the beet salad and crab cakes as a starter and the filet and salmon as the entrée with mushrooms, asparagus, and brussel sprouts as a side. First of all, each serving had a unique taste. They keep the entrees on separate plates which helps you taste the unique combination of flavors with each entrée. The filet was perfectly cooked as medium rare and very tender. The brussel sprouts were perfectly combined with sweet potatoes lightly combined with a unique sauce. The mushroom were not drenched in butter as most places do. The asparagus and beets in the beet salad were very fresh. The only compliant is that the salmon was a little too salty for me, but yet perfectly cooked and moist. But above all, the service we received from the waiter, host, and the drink server was absolutely professional. I highly recommend this place.

My girlfriend and I went with a Groupon and everything was amazing. Salads were good....My girlfriend had the Beets salad which Naomi our server recommended. She raved over it...I had the Caesar salad.....very good but different. Had a strong anchovy taste but nonetheless good. For our main course I had the filet mignon. It was cooked perfect and tasted even better.....Morton's look out. Naomi rold me that the filet comes over garlic mashed potatoes and recommended I get a different side. I ordered the onion ring tower. Best homemade onion rings I've ever had.....so many I took half of them home. My girlfriend had the Salmon with Asparagus and said it was delicious. The Groupon came with a shared dessert so Naomi recommended the chocolate cake which I saw being brought out earlier....it was a huge piece. Being that we were pretty full, Naomi split the piece into two and packed half of it up for us to eat at home. The cake was fantastic. The place was beautiful....top notch in my book. Naomi made it even better....she was so informative and a great help with all her suggestions. The only downside which I felt was so unprofessional was when my girlfriend returned from the bathroom (she was wearing a very sexy tight dress) as she passed the bar, the bartender let out a loud enough for her to hear "Woah".....very unprofessional for that type of establishment.

The restaurant itself is very beautiful and the Yankee decor is neat to look at. I knew before hand it was going to be pricey but expected better quality food for the price. The portion of the food was pretty small and the quality of the meat was not what I was expecting. I had the New York Strip Steak and my husband had the Lamb Chops. Still it was great to get to go at least once, but probably would not choose to go back.
(3)Mike M.
Service was a bit slow and unorganized, but food was great and we were a large group. Very good location, good atmosphere.
(4)Jeff G.
Bacon delicious, ribeye cooked well, service fantastic. Enjoyed this place thoroughly. Just think Peter Lugers has better flavor. Overall atmosphere I take NYY steakhouse.
(4)Feng Shan W.
We came for a birthday celebrate and in the reservation, I mentioned the name of the birthday person. To our surprise, the menu we got has personal happy birthday message on it! The steak was really good. We got the NY strips and Long Bone Ribeye. Perfectly cooked and really good taste. We also got the raw bar sampler. Fresh and good amount of food. The volcano ice cream dessert they have was super special. The waiter light it up with rum and the mix taste of rum and chocolate chips was so nice! I will definitely come back again and I strongly recommend this place.

I want to start of by saying that I don't normally yelp, in fact I opened up an account just to write about this place. From the moment you walk in everyone is extremely nice and very welcoming, the place is beautiful and definitely in line with the Yankees tradition. I'm a die hard yankees fan, and had never known about this place until I happened to come across it on Groupon. I instantly bought the deal and I'm so glad I did. The food was excellent especially the crab cake, the filet mignon, and the pork chop. The best thing about this place though is the service, from the moment you walk in they address you by your name the entire time, which is a nice touch and makes you feel respected. I want to thank Robert our sever for taking care of us he did an amazing job and I'll definitely be back for that Rib eye lol. The manager Eric was also very nice and made sure to check up on everyone to make sure everything was going well. I'm so glad I found this place, and can't wait to go back next time I'm in the city.
(5)Ryan E.
The food was delicious and well prepared. There was a good ambiance but unfortunately the restaurant was very loud. It didn't take too much away from the restaurant luckily.
(4)Zoe Z.
i think the stake is alright... For the food I would like to give 3.5. For the service, 4. The bread was good and but the aged tenderloin steak was okay. Not as great as what expected... Tuna was good -- the side and flavour could be better..
(3)K W.
It was a great experience! I don't know if it was because we went earlier in the evening, but it seemed as though there were 2-3 waiters for every table. Any time that we took a drink of water, there was someone there to fill it. The food was excellent. It was quick and fresh. The waiters were all knowledgeable about the food and the beers available. While pricy, the food and service was well worth the price!
(5)Andrew C.
Simply Amazing. My girlfriend took me here and from start to finish it was an incredible experience. I started with the bacon slices, and I will definitely say that it rivals Peter Lugars (plus you get more pieces). They have an assortment of specialty cocktails and wine lists. If you are a fan of the Yankees the atmosphere is unlike anything you have ever seen. I ordered a scotch and it came in the perfect glass and it was a double. Once the steaks came out they were cooked to perfection and absolutely delicious. I got the 28oz porterhouse topped with crumbled blue cheese. It was a ton of food and I had to take out half of the steak. As with any high end steak house they tend to be a little pricey but it is a great place to go on any special occasion, especially if you are a Yankee fan.

Sat at the bar for a few drinks and dessert. Everything was fantastic. Best service! Bartenders were awesome!
(5)Shannon T.
We had an amazing dinner tonight at NYY Steak. We had a private room in the "vault." Fernando and Vanessa were knowledgable and personable. They were great. Fernando was very informative about Yankees' history. The food was delicious and the service was wonderful. We can't wait to return. They were funny and entertaining. We had a blast.
(5)David B.
4 stars. Started with the crab soup which was OK, but did not have a lot of crab in it. It was my birthday and ordered the Bone in Rib eye medium rare (cooked as ordered) as the entree (they charred HAPPY BIRTHDAY in the bone which was a nice touch), lobster mac n cheese, smash sweet potatoes which were all very good. For dessert ordered cookies and cream. Everything came in huge portions and I had left overs for four days. The service was great, but over the top. This is a must for any Yankee fan.
(4)Kb W.
From SF. Loved NYY Steakhouse. We sat at the bar the bartender was great, Ramon was awesome. The food was great. The environment was awesome. The service was outstanding. We arrived at 5 and it is now 8 and we are still at the restaurant. We will certainly return.

NYY Steak is a phenomenal addition to the NY restaurant scene. The food is amazing and the service is outstanding!

We were in the city for a long weekend to celebrate our anniversary. We saw NYY steakhouse on groupon and thought we would give it a try for one of the nights we would be there. I called on Friday for reservation and told they were sold out so we went Saturday. Arrived early so we could sit at the bar and have a cocktail and we were told we could be seated whenever we were ready. Once seated ( tables are tight-so you better be ready to make friends) all wait staff were super attentive and knowledgable. I had the filet and my husband had the short ribs. Filet was phenomenal while short ribs were okay. He wasn't sure what they were plated on, he thought maybe a polenta, but it was just ok. As a side I ordered brussell sprout hash which was delicious. If anyone has the recipe-I want it! Dessert was creme brûlée and was average. The chocolate covered pretzels were a nice touch. Overall it was such a nice experience. Cocktails are a bit overpriced for what you get. One of the strongest assets is the service.
(4)Janie N.
Amazing food, strange service. The food there is beyond awesome, the bacon is to die for, and the atmosphere is fun. However, they advertise a pre fixe meal at the front door, and then don't put it on the menu or bring it up at the table. Of course we asked about it, and then the server made us feel cheap by sighing and going to the kitchen to see if it was "still available". Um, it's advertised at your frickin front door! They have this amazing pretzel bread that you get the stink eye for if you ask for more than one piece, and don't even think of asking for the other type of bread! You get one piece, pretzel or muffin style. We will be back, despite the awkward service, because this is the best steakhouse in the city (and we have been to all the top ones). Hopefully they can get their servers to behave less like food nazis and more like servers.
(4)Lyndsay G.
We had a great experience; the food was delicious and the service was excellent. Fernando, our waiter, was on point, sharing stories and making us feel welcome. We split the lobster Mac n cheese and the filet mignon, both were very good. I'd recommend it.
(5)Kim S.
The food and service was awesome. It was our anniversary and they personalized our menus. The waiter took our picture and printed pictures for us as souvenirs. It was a great experience!

We were visiting out daughter who lives in New York. December is a tough month because of the crowds, but we wanted to treat her to a nice steak dinner for her birthday. When we came in , we weren't too optimistic as we hadn't made reservations - we weren't clear on our plans. But the front desk manager was able to get us a table although he did tell us that there were some time constraints- which was fine. We had the best waitress who told us the specials and answered all our questions. We all ordered the 8 oz Filets, which came perfectly charred on the outside and pink on the inside. Delicious ! We ordered the goose fat potatoes ( highly recommended by our waitress ) and they were delicious along with the green beans. While it was approaching out time limit, we knew we wanted dessert and I mentioned that it was our daughter's birthday. Since we were chocoholics, we were thinking of splitting the chocolate cake ( which we heard was huge ) , but our daughter was also thinking of the brownie. But we said we would just get the cake as it was huge. Our sweet waitress brought the cake but also the brownie as a treat for our daughter with a candle . So special ! Of course the cake and brownie were gobbled up and we were very happy with the service and the vibe of the restaurant. We are familiar with New York steak houses, but NYY will definently be on our list for our next visit. Good food, hospitality and great atmosphere.

I loved the friendly and informative staff. Every aspect of the experience from drinks to staff to desert was truly marvelous. Please ask for Rodrigu he really added to this already divine experience.

This was our first visit to NYY Steak Manhattan after numerous visits to the Yankee Stadium location. It didn't disappoint! We dined late on a Monday evening and pretty much had the place to ourselves (we like it that way). It's a stunning restaurant with Yankee greats adorning the walls. Our server Shawn was great and recommended the NYY Steak Corn (ok...amazing. Creamy corn cooked in bacon fat with bacon bits). Normally we have the Onion Rings and Lobster Mac N' Cheese, but this time we tried the Creamed Spinach along with the corn. For our main, we had the Bone-in Ribeye. It was cooked perfectly. To start, we'd also recommend the Prime Burger Sliders (from the bar menu). Beautifully cooked with Gouda and onion jam on a brioche bun. Yum. This special night concluded with a private tour of the basement dining area (like I said, we love when a restaurant isn't busy...especial for nice perks like this) by the manager Charlie. We saw original player contracts from Yogi Berra and Mickey Mantle. A great way to end a wonderful dinner. Thanks again to Charlie and Shawn for going the extra mile for these Yankee fans! GO YANKEES!

I came to NYY Steak last night with my family and the food was amazing. Started off with the NYY Steak Bacon, which was out of this world, the maple syrup was a perfect touch. The 27 oz long bone ribeye was prepared just how I like it and was delicious. Our server, George, was very knowledgable of the wine list and offered superb suggestions. Can't wait to come back again very soon!
(5)Lori Z.
Had a great birthday dinner there for our son......Personalized menus, GREAT FOOD, Happy Birthday message on the "bone" of the steak, happy birthday dessert, great New York Yankee ambiance........what more could you ask for?!?! Manager Alex Sariyan took care of everything for us! Definitely try it out.....you won't be disappointed!!!

Not one bad thing to say. Superb drinks, steaks, & service. GM personally checking on tables was a nice touch. Will be back!

Had dinner on a tuesday night. Much better than expected!!! NYY Steak had all the steakhouse classics prepared perfectly with a few new classics. The bacon was amazing!!! Scallop app was also vert good. NY strip was the best I ever had and believe me I have had them all. Service was impecable, The open kitchen was kept very clean. I reccommend this steakhouse over all others in New York.
(5)J D.
One word - "WOW"!!!! I've had the privilege of dining in many of NYC's steakhouses, so this is the TRUTH. Food & atmosphere are amazing, only overshadowed by the service. Our waiter was so knowledgeable & genuinely enthusiastic about the place; it was contagious! Somewhere in the middle of our meal a manager came over JUST to check on us. He was a pleasure to talk to and it's so nice to see the management taking the time to check on the regular diner. We didn't have any complaints, so it was for no reason, other than a "hello". I can't wait to go back! With such stiff competition all around, it's tough to stand out. They did it here. Bravo!!
(5)Stephan M.
Love this steakhouse ! My friends and I are all in the field of culinary arts. We all agree that this was the best steakhouse we have all been to in years. The onion rings, seafood tower, jumbo steamed asparagus and steaks where top notch ! ! Not to mention we saw Dwight Gooding and many other Yankee players. Serves was very professional. Can't wait to go back !
(5)Emily F.
Really didn't think the steaks here were good at all. Service was ok at most. This restaurant is totally for tourists and it's fitting that Hard Rock Cafe owns them. Such a theme restaurant. There are so many restaurants I'd rather spend my money. Not a true NY Steakhouse, just a wanna be.
