Gallaghers Steakhouse - Manhattan

Awesome place

The steak melts in your mouth , waiters were very polite , the best key lime pie !

Great atmosphere!! What you remember a steak house being! Staff was friendly, personable and fast moving.

Great steak, Great waiter, Great Key Lime Pie. I highly recommend this restaurant. The bar scene on a Thursday night is LOUD. The farther you sit from the bar, the better. Gallagher's has been around for years, but it may be at its best now!!

Breads very good, filet was overcooked a bit, wanted medium, got medium well, trou le cutting with the semi-cerated steak knife.\nReceived someone else's bill at first.

First time in NY and i have the pleasure of eating The perfect steak!

Was very excited to plan this romantic dinner because of the reputation of Gallagher's. But was extremely disappointed in the quality/ flavor of the steak! My husband and I are both steak lovers and the meat, other than the hickory smoke flavor was dry and tasteless. The prices were astronomical for sub- par meat. Will not return.

Great food, awsome service. Very very nice place in midtown for dinner. Giorgio, our waiter was a incredible. Was a first for us, but we'll be back for sure.

This place is fantastic! Our favourite place when we visit NYC. It is like stepping back in time to old school New York. Service is impeccable and the food is delightful!

My wife and I visit New York once a year, and this is a must for our anniversary dinner. The fillet mignon was incredible. We split an oyster appetizer followed by the 14 oz. fillet mignon accompanied by two appetizers. Everything was wonderful. The waiter and server were both helpful and friendly, though the waiter forgot to tell us about our the daily specials.

The service was excellent the food very good except my medium rare filet was actually medium to well done.

Quite simply THE best braised short ribs I've ever had..The set lunch at $29 for 3 courses is amazing quality and value. I couldn't fault a single thing..I doubt you could find better for the money. As visitors from the UK we found it to be outstanding..5 stars and a must visit

The restaurant was located conveniently across from the parking garage and was only 3 blocks away from the Ambassador theater. We were greeting kindly and seating quickly as well. Our wait staff Rick and Steve both provided us with excellent service. We ordered the NY sirlion which was cooked to perfection, the mac & cheese was also good, for desert we had the cheesecake which was one of the best deserts i have had thus far. I would definitely recommed this restaurant to family or a friend and we will definitely will be back.

This was a date for my birthday celebration. The steak and lobster were flavorful and plentiful! Good wine list. A definite before or after a show

The rib eye steak was not what Iexpected It was not seasoned very well and was a little bit on the tough side To expensive for what it is advertised to be

Service was extremely slow, had to ask for another cocktail. Food was served, everything was cold. Had two waiters, one was very sarcastic. For the money, not worth the time!

Amazing, the best steaks you will ever have! Not cheap but worth every penny.

Perfect. Easy making online Reservation. Perfect the Rest ;-) Enjoy.

Always great steaks and service. Friendly staff assist in making selections from generous variety of entrees.

It was Great:) the waiter was out of this world and the steak melt in your mouth.

Very nice place, went there for the second time. Ambiance, meat... great! not cheap but great meat!!

Great steakhouse!

Our waiter was great, but the hosts were very snooty and unfriendly. Steak was cooked rare when we requested medium rare. Sides (mashed potatoes and sautéed green beans) were great, but when a steakhouse doesn't cook your steak right it's kind of a bummer. Keens is a much better experience (food, people, ambiance) if you're looking for a good steak in NYC. I won't be going back to Gallaghers.

Great ambience....nothing beats a streak house with deep leather and wood paneling and this place delivers! The food backs up the promise of the ambience as well! The french onion soup was rich and cheesy (but they had no container so I could take my leftover soup?! what's up with that??). The wedge salad was good -- could have used a little more Roquefort for my taste but I'm being picky. The iceberg was crisp and fresh and the beefsteak tomato was good as well. The main attraction -- the steak was really, really good and helped to make me forget about the little miscues along the way. I had the sirloin -- cooked on the bone and then sliced for you (the best of both worlds in my opinion, I get kind of lazy cutting steak!). It's served with a sauce (on the side thankfully since a good steak should stand on its own -- bare!) and it came at exactly the temperature I ordered. The host that greeted and seated me was outstanding and even though I was a single I didn't get relegated to some obscure spot. I had a comfortable table out in the open. That counts a lot to me. The service was just okay (as others have noted). Not bad but not outstanding either. Just okay. The food makes up for the service deficiencies. You've got all male waiters being pretentious in their service. That's part of the steakhouse 'thing' and I'm actually okay with that. I wasn't treated rudely at all and I was left alone to enjoy my meal. Overall a really good experience and it's a place I would return to when I'm back in NY. It's expensive, but actually no more so than the Capital Grilles or other 'chain' steakhouses. Good job Gallagher's! Oh! and there's a pretty nice bar where you can eat also so that's an option. Very close to all the theaters so if you're pre-theatre I would make a reservation.

Our experience was wonderful. The staff were super helpful our waiter was fabulous. The food was delicious and very plentiful.

Everything was perfect apart from the side dishes. They were greasy and nearly cold when they came to the table. We were lucky with our waiter as most of the other waiters seemed very stressed out and grumpy.

Great food and waiter was very nice fellow and great conversation about landmarks in area also easy access to restaurant with no waiting to be seated overall great place for dinner and prices were comparable with other high end restaurants I would recommend this restaurant to anyone in New York area looking for nice dinner

My husband and I chose this palace for our first trip to NYC. We ate their pre-theater and enjoyed a delicious cocktail, filet mignon, and a delightful macaroni and cheese. The atmosphere was fun, the waiters were pleasant (a little to animated than what we are used too). We both had a dessert and we loved the New York Cheese Cake! My steak was cooked to medium-rare perfection but my husband's was a little over done (he requested medium and his was medium-rare). The meal was a bit pricey...But we were in NYC so we were expecting that.

haven't been to Gallagher's in years and I don't know why.\nwe had an amazing meal, the steak and potatoes were terrific, some of the best in the city.\nwill be back for sure.

Weekend in the City with my spouse. Date night dinner here was fun. Food was great, seating was too close together. Pricey, but aren't they all in New York.

Great steak friendly service

Wonderful experience, great service, and in my opinion one of the best restaurants in New York. The amount of history that is in that one place is fascinating and the food is even better!

Every time we travel to New York we eat in this restaurant. The way the maintain their taste and the own cousin is the reason we always come back. We highly recommended.

Booked by open table 4 person, 2 adult 2 child needed 1 high chair when we arrived table wasn't ready yet and the note haven't been read... after 5' waiting we decided to try a sistemation in the bar section. Service of food was slowly. Strollers can't stand opened in the dining area (restaurant's policy) .\nVery noisy tonight...

Classic steakhouse, refurbished, but waiters still in keeping. Terrific for a martini, steak and a glass of red wine

Always amazing and the cheesecake is heavenly. The severs treated our boys like kings.

I've been here twice, and both times the food was excellent. However, on both occasions, there has been a lull in service at some point during the meal. The first time I was there, it happened after we got our steaks. It was a half hour (no exaggeration) before anyone even checked up on us. The second time, we had to wait 15 minutes after we were seated before we were even given menus. Both nights were Tuesday nights. If it wasn't for the food being as awesome as it was, I wouldn't come back. But I will. This is why I would rate Gallagher's as very good as opposed to great.

Phenomenal, worth every penny. The Rib Steak and Blue Cheese Filet Mignon are amazing

We had a great meal. Wonderful place for pre-show dinner.

The food seemed a little over priced. Steak didn't justify the price tag. Sides were ok. Staff was not pleasant. Professional, but not friendly.

Great food and great service. For an occasional treat this place is great. Dinner was expensive but we are glad we went.

Gallaghers is one of my favorite steakhouses in NYC. Brian, James and the rest of the staff are real pros. They know what great service means. And the steaks are, of course, spectacular. Try the porterhouse.

Wonderful classic New York steakhouse, great ambiance,warm period decor, I remember commenting to our party just how enjoyable it was to be at a New York steakhouse and hear Frank Sinatra playing in the background. The staff was welcoming, the wait service was exceptional, very diverse wine list, the Porterhouse was cooked and prepared to perfection, all in all a very satisfying expeience

When looking at the menu, one look at the prices can be disconcerting but when you weigh in the amount and quality of the food you get it makes sense. Gallagher's is not expensive for the sake of just being so, it offers a great portion size with amazing taste unlike many other places who charge a fortune for a small meal and variable flavor. The sides are served family style but if it is just two people, like in my case, one or two sides are more then enough after the large steak. The place was quiet in its own way, meaning plenty of conversations that created a sort of blanket effect that allows for easy personal conversations and privacy while also supplying a mood of connectedness. The wait staff was superb in their service. From being both courteous and jovial while also speaking multiple languages they do their best to make their patrons happy and relaxed. Gallagher's is definitely a place I would go to again as well as recommend.

All fine but too much dressing on the Caesar salad

Was served by Jacob for lunch yesterday, he was very attentive and kind, and the food was fantastic -- the $29 lunch prix fixe is an amazing deal!

very AMERICAN HISTORICAL PLACE and great food STEAK under every possible form

My boyfriend and I had a wonderful time at Gallagher's and will definitely visit again. Although noisy, the service was great and the portion sizes were very generous. The quality of the food and drinks were also outstanding.

Was there on a Saturday night I understand this is a very busy night but was greeted and told table wasn't ready for us and asked if we would like to have a drink at the bar...I have been Bar tending for 30 years and understand when a place is packed but never was i that rude to a customer waiting for a drink or ask them if they wanted there change. I was surprised at the fact that what i asked for was told he did not have but a full case of bud light was sitting about 10 feet away . After about 25 minutes I returned to check to see if my table was ready and it was ready and waiting but no one had come to tell us ? we could or would have waited their for who knows how long . We were taken Table and I wish it got better but our waiter took 20 minutes just to bring menu's , The food was to die for but at $51 for a steak you would expect that but a waiter that never checked to see if it was cooked to our liking or if we needed anything until he was trying to push dessert on us when he completely forgot my diet coke... food off the hook everything else not so much.

My husband and I are both steak lovers and were really looking forward to tasting the steaks, that are so beautifully and proudly displayed in the establishment. We picked Gallaghers for many reasons, amazing reviews, good location, nice cozy vibe from the pictures and they have been open for many many years. Plus they are 1 of the Top 10 steakhouses in all of NYC, on many websites.\nWe weren't disappointed, everything was AMAZING!! Service, steak, food portions, atmosphere it was all an experience. It was our wedding anniversary and it was a perfect night! Definitely going back next time we'll visit NYC.

The service was outstanding. It was very loud and not so great for a quiet romantic evening. The lobster was out of this world but steak was above average but not outstanding. The asparagus was a little undercooked ex and over ripe.

The food and service was great! The noise level is loud but overall it's worth it because the food and service is wonderful!

This is a place I try to come every time I am in NYC. After today's visit I am not sure that will continue. Food was awesome as usual but service was terrible. We had 7:30 reservations, but didn't sit until about 8:20. That was not so bad, as the waiter did not service the table well. Never kept water or drinks full and forgot to put in one of the meals. We left a 15% tip even though service did not warrant, THEN the waiter had the nerve to come out of the restaurant and tell me I did not leave him enough of a tip. He tried to tell me that we owed double what we left. Can't believe he came out of the restaurant. We gave a more than fair tip for the service.

I ordered the tuna steak and my girlfriend ordered the filet. We also ordered two sides which were huge and we shared them. We each had a glass of wine. Our bill totaled $149. It is a bit pricey but this is mainly because everything is a la carte.

A really great restaurant with incredible steaks cooked just the way we wanted them. \nMy only criticism is the fries were very 'limp' and the place very noisy.

I would recommend this restaurant to anyone who asked. It is a steakhouse and the meat is superb, so the check will show that. We went right after getting engaged and it was a lovely way to celebrate our engagement. The brussel sprouts are wonderful! We shared a porterhouse for two and it just melted in your mouth. Gallaghers Steakhouse is very old school and the service is excellent.

Best steaks we've ever tasted! Service was great. Ambiance delightful. Very knowledgeable server

Excellent steak served by expert people !!! I'll come back again and again ... Cheers!

Business dinner reservations ready right on time we chose instead to eat at bar right side was quieter and very comfortable for bar dining\nBartenders true professionals knew their scotches and bourbons and great menu recommendations\nHad the shrimp and oysters then porterhouse tremendous all around

Excellent Beef! Good Service! Well Run! Good Central Location! Great Before Theatre Meal!

The food and experience was everything we hoped for. It was great for a restaurant to live up to the hype it has been given and we can't wait to come back. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone for any occasion.

i went for a friend get together. a couple of people were late, but they had no problem keeping our reservation. food was good. plenty to go around. sides are huge.

Excellent restaraunt. Steak and Service was fantastic. Not sure how $12 for broccoli can be justified though.

Great service and food. I would recommend for any occasion.

This place is amazing but be prepared to spend. The service is the best I've ever had from a steakhouse. The drinks selection is great and ambience is just right. I would go back to this restaurant in a heartbeat if I visited New York again.

Best Steak in Town , great Atmosphere - never disappoints

Attended on Valentines Day. Restaurant was very busy... not what I would call a romantic restaurant. We were attending for our 10th wedding anniversary which was not mentioned (despite being on the booking). The waiter was not very attentative and made no recommendations. Also, I am a steak lover and have had some amazingly tasty steaks for a fraction of the cost. The ribeye was average at best... cooked perfectly but was flavourless and under seasoned and the creamy mash was lumpy. Used most of their house sauce to flavour the meat which you shouldn't need on good quality meat. Admittedly my wife liked her filet mignon. Probably should have said something because at $290 inc tax and grat for 2 starters, 2 mains, 1 side and one of the cheapest bottle of wine on menu ($50) this was simply not acceptable.

Honestly, the food was not worth $220. It was nothing special. The steak wasn't tender. It was undercooked-ordered medium and it was medium rare. We also ordered 3 sides, the mashed potatoes were good, asparagus was plain and mushrooms were good. Definitely won't return. Save your money and go to Ruth's Chris or The Keg. Disappointing and waste of money.

amazing staff Porter house was delicious and the signature sauce that comes with it was to die for

Best burger and fries in town. Only served at lunchtime. Great steaks at night. And don't miss banana split which is definitely to share.

My husband and I went for Valentines Day dinner. Our waiter was friendly and knowledgeable. He selected a wine which was excellent. The quality of our steak was outstanding. The mushroom butter sauce was so flavorful- it really enhanced the filet. We shared creme brulee for dessert which was also amazing. We knew this would be a pricey meal, but we were not disappointed with any aspect of our meal.

Booked Gallaghers for a special 18th birthday meal on 12th Feb whilst in NYC for 3 days with my two sons, I had read the reviews and decided we should enjoy a top notch NY steak meal...after a warm welcome we were promptly ushered to our table, and ordered our steaks and sides, mouths watering looking at the dishes being served on adjacent tables.... an hour and 10 minutes later our 3 steak meals finally arrived!! We decided we wouldn't need starters due to the size of the 14oz steaks so rather expected to be served our meals within half hour max, after 35 minutes out waiter arrived and apologised for the delay and told us out steaks had just gone onto the fire...evidently this wasn't the case as 20 minutes later he returned to say there had been an a mix up and that our order hadn't got to the chef due to admin error! We were offered another round of drinks on the house which we duly received along with further apologies from another member of staff, possibly the Maitre d' who assured us our food was on its way...finally an hour and 10 mins after ordering it arrived, waiting aside, the steak and sides we ordered were excellent and lived up to expectation, my eldest teenage son who's birthday we were celebrating thought his ribeye was the best steak he had ever tasted but the long wait was simply unacceptable. We were compensated with a round of drinks and also 2 cheesecake desserts (1 we requested to go) and fruit platter and also coffees all on the house. To be fair to the restaurant I felt they compensated us just sufficiently and fortunately we weren't in any great rush, although as you can imagine my two hungry teenage sons (as well as me!) were becoming very impatient! \nI would recommend on the basis of the food alone, although very pricey, and it was evident Tony our waiter was very embarrassed over the whole affair, but I don't think we will revisit as there are plenty of other venues to try out in the future!

Can't beat the atmosphere and service, and it was quite busy in a Monday night. I will say that I was not super impressed with the food though. All of the sides were lackluster and served tepid. The fries were soggy and not hot nor was the asparagus. The meats were all very good, but they did cut up the wrong one that was ordered to share. Nothing agregious, but for the money I expect the highest quality. \nAgain though, the staff is excellent and it really is a beautiful place to have a nice dinner.

I am European and maybe I don't know all of your steakhouses, but this is the best I have ever been.

Over priced food but decent service.

An expected fine steak house experience turned into disaster. After Broadway, 4 of us arrived rain soaked and ready for a nice evening. The hosts took our coats, escorted us to a nice booth in a quieter location away from the bar. We chose nice above average wines by the glass. \n\nI had a Classic Wedge salad, with a large slice of RIPE Beefsteak tomato, hooray! One gal had the 10oz. Filet perfectly charred to medium rare as ordered. Two gals split a New York Strip ordered; MEDIUM. The waiter offered to pre-slice,. It came BLUE rare, a huge mistake compared to the medium rare of the filet. Sent back, it arrived 10 minutes later exactly as before but slightly warm as if under a heat lamp. \n\nThe waited blamed us, saying, 'Well what do you GIRLS want me to do, waste the steak?' NO! We LADIES want you to present a steak cooked to MEDUIM as ordered. He got huffy, removed it and stalked off. The 3 ladies shared the medium filet along with garlicy broccoli and somewhat mushy potatoes Lyonnais. \n\nHere's the deal: We normally tip 20-25 % in a Steakhouse and dine all over the planet. Nothing cosmic about a steak. A glass meat locker hangs aging beef in full view of patrons when they arrive. This is what Gallagher's does! The PROBLEM with a $54 steak mistake? An expediter calls it to the food runner and the waiter ASSUMES it is as ordered. We HATE it when the food runner appears, interrupts conversation, checks to see who has what, drops the plate and leaves. When the waiter returns to see how our 'first bites are' he has no idea there weren't any!\n\nThe Maître'd arrived, professionally and patiently LISTENED to the complaint and the insult delivered by the waiter. We asked him to locate the untouched steak and see it for himself. He offered a complimentary dessert, we declined 3 times then friend who generously shared her filet accepted for all of us. Had this happened to a table of MEN, would they have been condescended to? Oh well. We did enjoy the atmosphere.

Amazing great scene, great service,food was amazing and the sides are large portions you can share with others

A lovely Valentines dinner. I am doing the Whole30 diet and there were a bunch of options. A lovely, decadent and healthy mail.

Made a late reservation. Shortly after receiving our food, we were rushed out the door. We did not get to enjoy our meal. Did not get to finish the food we paid for. We did complain and there was no concern from management at all.

It was our pre-valentine's dinner for my hubby and I. It was our first time there and the food was awesome. The waiters were great. The ambiance was nice. It was expensive but worth the money.

Very disappointed Server didn't remember to bring my wife's drink. I ordered my meat medium well and got medium rare. It took so long Icoylfnt send it back and risk missing our show. For the price I expected better.

Like always, Gallaghers outdoes itself with top quality food and service every time that i go there and I'm looking forward to going back there again very soon. I can't speak highly enough if Gallaghers.

Always a great experience. Service was very friendly as usual, and very professional. Meat was great.

Food, drinks, service and dessert was great. Recommend for all occasions.

Must-do while in NY! I am a big meat fan, but had never a better Rib Steak than at Gallagher's! Not cheap but worth every dollar!\nGrtz grom Belgium

Was incredibly surprised from the service to the excellent filet. The French Fries were to die for and the apple/nut salad very fresh. It's not cheap so save it for a special occasion but you won't be disappointed. Everything about this place says 'class'. We will be back.

Everything was fantastic. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting New York City. The absolute best bone in ribeye I've had in a long time. The service was absolutely fantastic.

It was my First time visiting Gallaghers , i was celebrating my Birthday and it was a good one. I enjoyed the food and the service. It was packed in there but I didn't care cause i was enjoying myself with my Boyfriend. Would definitely go back to eat there.

This was an early Valentine's Day dinner! It was romantic and wonderful!!

We went on the last day of winter 2017 Restaurant Week, the restaurant was NOT full. Our waiter was on the ball at first . . . he asked if we were in a rush, we said yes, he was personable. We received our first course, in a matter of minutes. Then the wait came; almost 40 minutes to receive two medium rare steaks. We had to then rush our main meal, ask for our dessert to go and get the check which took another 10-15 minutes. Very disappointed in the service.

Been before and will go again. Great place, superb service from waiter (Patrick). Relaxed atmosphere in an old fashioned classic steakhouse. Not a cheap place to eat, but great food and a nice surprise when the waiters brought a birthday cake to the table and sung happy birthday.

The food was great! The wait staff was very attentive. The drinks were awesome! I had the surf and turf - expensive but very worth the money. Will be going back!

At 7:00 PM on a Friday night they were out of Prime Rib

Great steakhouse experience. Service was excellent. Food was very good. It was a very nice dinner.

Possibly the best steak I have had from Boston to Orlando. The waiter was completely on top of our wants, always attentive without being in the way. Started me with an old fashion that took me back decades. The wine list was superb but not overwhelming. I had a 2010 Borolo as good as it gets. Tried the filet and the chicken, both incredible tastes. Sides were good.\nThe service from management to the bar staff to the wait staff know how to provide excellent service and do it impeccably.\nI will be back again an bring others to share this meal.

Amazing!! Best steak, amazing attentive service. Old school vibe. A must do in NYC!!

We ordered the porterhouse medium and it came out raw and the asparagus was plain with absolutely no seasoning. The bread was the best part of the $200.

Booked a lunch reservation during restaurant week. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly, steak was delicious

Gallaghers is a good quality steakhouse where the service is good and your experience is what you expect. It is better quality than most and not 'trendy'.

Fantastic service! The staff here was incredibly attentive and courteous. The menu had a great selection and the food was delicious. I highly recommend Gallagher's for any occasion! Thank you.

Awesome Birthday Experience!

Our choices were the ribeye and stuffed shrimp and both were executed very well. While I've had more impressive steaks in the past this one was cooked perfectly with little seasoning and no steakhouse tricks like butter or oil added after. Just a nice solid steak. The stuffed shrimp were huge and full of natural flavor. I couldn't recommend them more. Lemony and fresh ingredients allowed the shrimp and crab to shine. Staff was attentive and engaging. Despite forgetting an order of clams, a blessing in disguise because we ordered a lot of food, I'd say the staff did a great job.

My son's 25 th birthday

Best steak house in NY!! Great food and great service. I go there at least once a month.

Great, great, did I say great food, service, and fun. Our host provided the history on the restaurant, and was very attentive. Memorable experience that I hope to repeat!

25th anniversary

Everything was great. Highly recommended. Service was outstanding. Steak was cooked perfectly and tasted great, wife enjoyed the stuffed shrimp. Alittle expensive, but for the high quality food, it is worth the money.

This was hands down the best restaurant we ate at while in Manhattan! We were a party of 6 and had filets, bone in ribeye, stuffed shrimp, lobster tail, mac n cheese, asparagus, mashed potatoes and onion rings. Every item we ordered was fantastic as was our waiter. Absolutely wonderful overall!

great meal \n\nowner is a great guy \n\nalways will recommend this place \n\ngreat food

Had lunch with son and husband during NYC dining week, it was excellent. Food great, service was outstanding.

I really enjoyed their lunch! It was so delicious and service was amazing!!

Came for Restaurant Week! \nThe ambiance is quite pretty, it's a big room with a bar in the middle, seats in the center, and booths along the side. \n\nI sat in a booth and enjoyed the view of the diners and the snow flurrying around outside. \n\nFor my appetizer, I ordered the wedge salad with blue cheese dressing and beefsteak tomatoes. It was Big, and tasty!\nI got the ribs over mashed potatoes for my entrée, which was also very delicious, but by that point I was getting to be full and I wanted to save room for dessert so I asked them to wrap it up for me. \nThe key lime pie was my dessert choice, and it was the right one! ''Twas so good!! I would come back just for dessert sometime just to have that again!\n\nAll in all, the ambience was great, the service was very friendly and quick( but never rushed-- a fine Balance accomplished), and the food was delicious. I would Definitely recommend it!

Great food, wait staff and atmosphere. Will def return.

Great service, food was great except the mains were unseasoned and fairly bland for being dry aged, prime beef.

The efficiency and attentiveness of the serving staff is to be admired. I was made to feel extremely comfortable and the food is delish. Steaks cooked to perfection.

Good NY Steakhouse. Typically menu., Food was very good but the restaurant was very noisy and the service was slow....

Great service and food and professional\nI recommend the place for an occasion\nThanks

They brought out wrong entree after waiting unreasonable long. Then, I had to wait for the right entree which turned out to be anticlimactic. And the consolidation prize was a fruit tray after dinner..

Delicious steakhouse, friendly service, quiet and cozy

Had dinner with extended family on a Saturday night. Good service, we were not rushed - but crowded and a bit loud in there. Drinks on the expensive side. Steaks were very good, as were the sides and the wine. Overall a good time, but tables a bit crowded, and the place is a bit crowded and noisy, for a pretty hefty bill. Waiters seem harried, and not the age or as solicitous as you would expect for a New York steak house with a reputation. Easy to get the reservation.

Food and service were excellent!! The guests sitting next table were pretty loud after drinks. It was a little bit annoying.

If you like dead cow then thus place is your kind of place! Phenomenal food from the french onion soup to the creamed spinach. The star of course is the beef and my rib eye was cooked to perfection. \nNick our waiter was great there when you needed him and not obtrusive at all.

Great location. Service could have been better. Price was as expected. Would return when I don't have a show to attend.

Excellent meal ! service will definitely go back !

Great food. Friendly staff.

Great Food, Great Service, Classic Old World Steakhouse

Very excellent experience .

Service is too notch. Food was fantastic and definitely one of the best steakhouses in the city. Saw two guys complaining about their steak after eating 3/4ths of it but they still took it back and gave them a new one. I've never seen that happen before. We will definitely be back.

Every New Yorker and visitor to NYC should go here at least once. History, classic steak house vibe, solid service. Plus, all that aging steak in the meat locker...

An old favorite from old Hearst publishing days. Perfect spot for a rendez-vous with old co-workers for a perfect martini and a great steak.

The waiter was horrible and stereotyped me as a young person who wouldn't tip... and paid no attention to us which is highly in professional... I frequent steakhouses in Manhattan and Long Island ok the regular.. if I was to ever go back I would ask to not be seated with Rick... EXTREMELY UNPROFESSIONAL!

Mignon was nothing to die for, under cooked. Not planning to come back

Great access and proximity to Broadway in Manhattan. Spectacular service and great steaks. You can actually have a conversation with your dinner companions. Can't say enough about the dining experience.

My friends and I wanted to try a Steakhouse as part of the Restaurant Week deal. I did a search and this one came up. it had the best ratings and I wasn't familiar with it so we decided to go. Unfortunately we did not know that deal was only available for lunch at this restaurant. We decided to just enjoy ourselves and ordered a very nice Rioja, for appetizers we had the Tuna Tartar and Burrata with roasted peppers. Both were delicious. We then shared a Porterhouse for two which was plenty and done perfectly. The only thing we weren't crazy about was their steak au poive sauce which didn't taste like pepper but we loved their house sauce. We also had sides of creamed spinach and sauteed mushrooms, really good and large portions. For dessert we shared a banana creamed pie which was also really good, especially the crust. The staff were fairly friendly and the prices were reasonable for what we ordered. I will definitely go back.

Delicious food. Amazingly cooked steak and really wide range of sides and cuts of meat. The Meat storage room that you can see into is also awesome. To see where they dry age the beef was a nice touch.

Excellent waiter service by Joe. Best steak I have had.

Excellent steak, creamed spinach and chocolate cake. Our server was attentive an helpful.

I had the NY Sirloin Medium cooked. Good flavor but not great. Not too much fat which is good but not a juicy cut by any means and at times tasted bland.

My friends and I are still ranting and raving about the excellent service and quality of food. It has become a favorite place to eat when we travel to NYC.\n\nKeep up the great work!

Outstanding service and quality of food I would highly recommend this establishment

Gallagher's is old school aged beef at its best, coupled with a New York ambiance that is waning (i.e. Carnegie Deli) and harder and harder to find in NY these days. The service is impeccable and the staff is nothing if not highly professional and seasoned. All of the aged meats are among the best I've had and the sides are traditional and outstanding. I go for the mashed potatoes and creamed spinach (best I've had).

Whenever we are in NYC, this is a place we love. Good, straight forward steakhouse.

This is classic steakhouse experience. The waiter was friendly, funny, and adept at his job. With the wide selection of steaks everyone in our group found a great option. And they were delicious! As were the sides and the Bourbon Old Fashion was one of the best I've had in a while. Dessert was good and huge too. One was enough for 5 of us (even my chocoholic wife). Also, they have their aging meats on display as you walk in and I could stare at those delicious hunks for hours. If you're looking for a fancy steak meal in midtown this is a great option.

It's greater than I expected! And the service is very nice!

Steak was low quality and vegetables were cold. Disappointing meal experience.

Thought service was not equal to price. No explation of anything including the meat locker, steak options or history of place. We all thought it was weird! Not a bad time but not great either. Almost like we were an annoyance! Next time Keens!

One of the best steak house in NYC, price is right, good place to have dinner with business, friend and family. service is fine. Will recommend for friends and family.

Best Oysters I ever had. They could expand their liquor options. Meal was very good.

One of the greatest place to have steak in NYC. The service was outstanding.

Wonderful staff. Everyone was kind. Food was great and not expensive as other steakhouses.

Good waiter

Hadn't been there in several years...was delighted by the renovation and ambience they have created to complement the same great food!

The food was delicous, especially wedge salad, filet mignon and including desert.\nEven though I just tried NY restaurant lunch special menu, I believe general dining will be great, too. I really want to visit one more time with my family.

Terrific place. Visit once a month when i am in town. A real, old-school steak house that serves great steaks.

Outstanding in every way! From Ryan who greeted and seated us, to Tim our outstanding waiter to Brian the GM who made sure our Sea Smoke Ten Pinot Noir was ready for us, this was a total five star experience. Three of us in NYC for a special occasion had the filet mignon lunch specials (served with creamed spinach and mashed potatoes) and they were perfectly cooked and wonderfully flavored. An additional starter of the slab bacon and onion rings with the entree all started off with 52nd Street Old Fashions made for an outstanding meal. The Sea Smoke Ten accompanied the filets perfectly. What? Pinot Noir with filet mignon you scoff? Try THIS Pinot Noir and you'll see... Finished with the best New York cheesecake I've ever had. I can't imagine a better steakhouse in NYC, or anywhere. We'll be back again anytime we are in the city!

My wife and I both had filets and agreed hands down they were the best we've ever had ANYwhere. Cooked exactly to order and so flavorful...could've cut with a fork. We split a loaded baked potato which was brought already divided on separate plates. The bread is baked fresh there and you really have to be careful not to fill up on it...it's that good. Just an all around delicious dinner and exceptional service. With all the fine dining and steak houses to choose from, we will definitely return to Gallaghers next trip to NYC.

Absolutely delicious! We enjoyed a shrimp cocktail appetizer, then steaks and grilled salmon for entrees. Steaks were juicy, flavorful and cooked perfectly, and the grilled salmon was crispy on the outside and nice and moist on the inside. Even the vegetables were impressive--we had the broccoli rabe and creamed spinach. Very efficient and friendly staff too! We will definitely be returning and highly recommend this gem.

Nikki was an amazing server. She was so accommodating and very clear about everything throughout every step of service. Food was cooked perfectly and DELICIOUS!

I must say it. It was one of my best Porter House I never had....\nGreat dinner, experience, service. \nGood value for your money......\nThe ageing process of the meat is great....\nMust come again.....and again...\nSee you soon

As NYC steakhouses go, you can not beat Gallaghers, great steaks, sides and drinks. The service is spot on from the host, to the bartenders, to the servers. Cna't wait to go back.

Probably visited five times over 10 years. We had a very nice meal. I like the expansion. Prices are still plenty high. Was not happy with lengthy waits to clear plates, and to be offered desert, receive it, and another wait to cash out. Once a larger party was seated behind us, all attention shifted to that table. In my experience with dining out, the wait staff can ruin what was a nice meal and visit by wasting the patrons time, when the patron has other appointments.

Good simple comfort food well-cooked. Nothing fancy, just old-fashioned steak house (lamb chops too) with really good chocolate cake.

The entry into the restaurant is inviting and viewing the bar crowd made it all look as if one was going to have a spectacular experience. We were escorted to a fine table with a great view of the people at the bar. One super wait-staff person in Nick. He could not have been more attentive or efficient. He described all apps and entrees with enthusiasm and made a great app recommendation which the three of us shared. We all had the filet and that's where all of the air went out of the tires. The cut of meat did not look at all like filet cuts I have seen at fine steak restaurants. It was mealy looking and quite tough to cut through. the Mac & Cheese and mushroom apps were OK. All in all, I wish the experience had been significantly better, considering the price.

Great food, great atmosphere, old style steakhouse. Waiters are always great, we had Adam and Melvin and we usually have Jimmy who is always awesome!

Great food, great service and fantastic staff. Love the place.

Warm welcome excellent service and more importantly superb steak

Amazing atmosphere and food. If you want to enjoy a piece of history definitely try Gallagher's!

The meal, service, and experience did not disappoint. Absolute best steak I have ever eaten and service was first class. This place is truly a treasure.

Bring your wallet but worth every penny you will spend. Great service and the food to die for.

Bravo...this is a great authentic place for go for great steak in new york city. Always my favorite for a birthday or special occasion. Outstanding service and outstanding food...my two favorite things!

This place was fantastic! Read reviews on-line and decided to make a reservation. Prime rib was amazing, lobster was the best I have ever had, soup was really great and the desserts were perfection! The service was top notch! We just landed from a long flight from Los Angeles and were under-dressed. Despite our casual dress, they treated us no differently. Highly recommend this restaurant. When we are back in New York, we will be back!

Excellent...my son and I both had the NY strips and shared the hash browns and the creamed spinach. If we would have known how good those hash browns were, we would not have shared!

We travelled from N California to NYC on vacation. We wanted to eat one special dinner at a steakhouse during our stay in NYC . We found that in Gallagher's. We had shrimp and lobster dumpling appetizer, ribeye steak and 4 lb lobster, along with crime brûlée and cheesecake....all so very delicious. The only downside is the restaurant is a bit noisy but that's NY! 😉

Just an amazing place, amazing food and an outstanding quality of service .... a jump in time ... I go there each time I'm in NY .... love it !!!

Great service, placed looked great but the steak was sub par. We walked in and saw a room of aging steaks and thought it would be great but the steak recommended by the waiter, the Sirloin was very tough. Very sub par for a true steak house.

Gallagher's atmosphere is relaxed and comfortable. Service was excellent. Our waiter not only spoke Italian to my foreign guests but made recommendations that were perfect for them. The food is outstanding. The crab cakes were the best I've ever had.

Had better steaks for a lot less money. Server seemed like he didn't care.

We visited Gallaghers Steakhouse on New Years's eve and the Porterhouse there was absolutely fantastic! Food was served quickly without waiting for a long time and our friendly servers were very knowledgeable as well as professional. The only thing we regret is they no longer has the pistachio souffle on their dessert menu. I have brought this up with the server and requested that the management should bring it back because we have heard rave reviews about it and hopefully the next time we visit again it will be back on the menu. This is one of the best steakhouses we have tried and would definitely recommend it to all steak lovers and we are looking forward to visit it again in the future.

Meat was awesome. Sides were massive portions. I was really impressed with the oysters. Not too briny (which is weird esp if they come from the East coast). Food was staggered nicely. Wine selection was plentiful. Service was top notch. Id definitely repeat here!

Great steak & sides except onion rings which were cold and soggy. I should have sent them back but did not want to make a deal of it in front of associates.

We had a very enjoyable experience. Service and food was outstanding.

Took a very important group here for a business dinner...food, service and atmosphere was simply impeccable! The experience started off with the stunning room at the front with all the meat aging on racks...wow. Then the coat check room with the live attendant...wow. The open kitchen where you could see the steaks cooking in the broilers with real wood! So authentic! Our service was awesome, food was amazing (best steak I have ever had) and I had rave reviews from my group...which included a couple of foodies that had never even heard of this place but are coming back again!! Slam dunk!

It was an amazing steak meal both my husband and myself loved it

Gallagers had delicious food. Our one disappointment was the seating. All tables for 2 are in row seating with the tables virtually touching each other. Instead of feeling like we were dining with a couple we did not know, we chose instead to wait for a high top in the bar area. While these tables were also in a row, at least there was some space between them.

An authentic New York eating experience . I have recommended this restaurant to many friends. They were not disappointed. The quality of the meat is outstanding - so are the prices. Excellent service.

Ordered the filet...medium. And it was perfect. I love my medium almost medium rare, and they hit the nail on the head! The sides were big enough to share. Prices were reasonable as well. I'd definitely go back!

Food was excellent, steaks were cooked perfectly, and the service was excellent and attentive.

Came here for our anniversary after reading great reviews. French onion soup was delicious! The special side was mac and cheese which was equally great. The only complaint I have is my filet mignon was not a great cut nor cooked to medium rare (more medium). Husbands steak was also charred a little too much. Peppercorn sauce could have more flavor and thickness (more of a broth consistency is what theirs is). We were given a small chocolate cake to go since it was our anniversary, which was nice. I would go back and hopefully get a better piece of meat.

The food was amazing and so was the service. I absolutely loved it!!

Certainly the best restaurant in NY for meat fan. Meat is excellent and perfectly cooked.

Good food \nServer basically was too busy and talked to us three times during dinner.

Steak lovers will be happy with this venue. We were there on a Tuesday night and the place was jumping! Get there by 6:30ish for the Prime Rib, if you want it. 13 hours of slow roasted beef is delicious! We ordered the lobster & shrimp dumplings and they were great. The wine list is plentiful, however more expensive than other houses in Manhattan. I guess you could attribute this due to its close proximity to Times Square and also, THEY HAVE BEEN IN THIS LOCATION FOREVER! Prohibition times, to be exact. Good dining experience. But if you want to shave off a few bucks you have other options without sacrificing quality

We could not have been more satisfied.From the entry and greeting to the excellent table seating everything went smoothly. The waiter introduced himself and placed the warm bread with butter on the table and I knew we were in the right restaurant.The food was exceptionally delicious .We could not have been more pleased with the entire service and the ambiance. \nWe will certainly make a return visit in the very near future.Did I also mention how very handsome the restaurant looked .PS: They have cloth hand towels in the restrooms.

Great food, service, and ambiance, but too loud and too crowded, felt like they tried to pack in a few too many tables so the waiters could barely walk between the tables, your chair was always bumping into your neighbor tables, the noise was very loud, and no privacy, you could literally hear the conversation at the table next to you as those at your own table

Great food and super service. The Filet was tastey and cooked to perfection. Looking forward to our next visit. Thanks much!!

Food was good shrimp stuffed with crab meat and a pepper crusted 10 oz filet. Atmosphere was pretty nice but very noisy.

Went to see a show it was convient,and the food was good

Probably our favorite restaurant in nyc. Went for our wedding anniversary. The Gallagher's steak sauce is not to be missed, and their 52nd St Old Fashioned is the best Old Fashioned I've ever had!

We love Gallagher's. It's a throwback. Great ambiance. The steak was excellent. It is not cheap, but everything comes out nice and the waiters are knowledgeable.

We were in the city to see Jersey Boys and went to Sunday lunch at Gallagher's which was conveniently located doors down from the theater since we are not too familiar with the city. The lunch selection was excellent with a wide variety. The atmosphere was pleasant and the waiter's excellent. We would definitely recommend it.

I made reservations for our 10 year wedding anniversary at Gallagher's. This steakhouse was amazing! We ordered the porterhouse for two with asparagus and brussel sprouts. I asked for the steak to be cooked medium, but in reality it was more like rare to medium rare. No complaints from me, but my wife would've liked it closer to medium-well.\n\nOur waiter was Shane and he did an amazing job. He was very attentive and helpful the entire time. At some point, I made a passing comment about this being our anniversary. Next thing we know, Shane is bringing out a small cake for my wife and I. Not only that, it had a single candle on it! Very cool, Shane. Very cool.\n\nWe were very happy with our dining experience at Gallagher's. I would definitely go there again and recommend anyone else to go there too!

Prime rib was cold when served. Reservation placed us by the kitchen which was loud and congested. Menus were stored behind our table and each time the waitstaff stored a menu, it was so loud I jumped due to not knowing what was happening.

Went to a Broadway show. Ate at the bar and Gad good conversation with several people.

Gallagher's is one of my favorite NY restaurants. Food is amazing, and even if you dont eat steak, the non-stop options are off the charts, try the tuna, the crabmeat stuffed shrimp are divine. The sides are enough for a table of four to share. Service is top notch. A great place for any occasion.

Service very good, attentive, food excellent, worth going to for any special occasion or just a great meal!!!

Very very very good the Place is beatiful I Will Return In future

My wife and myself had a wonderful dining experience at Gallaghers after a wonderful theatre experience as well. We highly recommend Gallaghers to others and look forward to returning.

Enjoyed the whole evening. Wonderful service, gracious service, the entire meal was first rate. The atmosphere is loud but the service is attentive and the presentation outstanding.

Nice place but the music was really loud

Filet mignon was not as tasty as some I have had. Lamb chops were fatty, although we did get three chops.

Service was very good, as usual. But we were very disappointed with the kitchen as we had to send back the Porter house for two TWICE because it was too rare (ordered medium rate, on the medium side, not red) \nFor the price, the steak should have been done right the first time. \nOtherwise, everything else was fine. \nI dine there regularly, and I hope that this experience was the exception and not the rule.

Delicious! Service was excellent, classic decor, food was tasty and cooked perfectly. Large portions. Not cheap but worth it for special occasion or business dinners. Would definitely go back.

The sevice is second to none, location is spot on and the steak was the best i have ever eaten.

Gallagher's is a venerable old steak house. Old school meats and old school service - professional, friendly and knowledgeable. We have been going there for years and feared the do-over of a couple of years ago might spoil the ambience - not so. The place has been subtly renovated and the old charm is maintained. The steaks are still reliably wonderful.\nWe hope to be able to keep on going back for many years to come.

A great , traditional steakhouse in mid-town Manhattan. Old-style waiters (not a woman on staff to be seen except the coat-check girl) who provided excellent service - simply gentlemen from beginning to end. HUGE portions of everything - and all done to perfection. Only complaint was with the oysters on the 1/2. Just average ... nothing special. Unique preparation of the steak tartare - more spicy that I have ever experienced, but great none the less. Ask for extra toasts, you'll need them! Was disappointed they were out of prime rib, but our reservation was at 10. Next time, we'll shoot for 8:30 or 9 so as not to miss out.

Some places in NYC you just overpay for the hype, but Gallaghers was worth every penny. Great food, service, ambiance. Fantastic!

Very attentive staff, great food, had a good prix- fixe lunch, nice value.

Felt like a real New Yorker instead of just a visitor, a step back in time.

Really enjoyed our steak meal. Went for my partners birthday, Would highly recommend this steak house

Gallaghers was absolutely amazing from the atmosphere to the service and food quality. The server recommended the ribeye and let me tell you, it practically melts in your mouth. The meats were seasoned to perfection and cooked spot on. Would go again when I can afford to haha.

A great dinner after Jersey Boys. Soup of the day was Black Bean and it was delicious. My wife had the Filet Mignon and I had the Rib Steak. My wife enjoyed hers. My Rib Steak was out of this world. Great char, done just the way I asked for it and so tender and tasty. Had a great Key Lime Pie for desert. Professional waiter!

My wife and I went because of its convenient location adjacent to the theater where we were going to see a show. I would recommend Gallagher's on that basis alone. Our meal was not complicated: steamed vegetables and a filet mignon cooked rare -- that is, with a cold red center. As fans of the filet mignon we know that it is a tender and mild cut of meat. It comes with a minimum of fat and no connective tissue and in almost all circumstances can be cut with a fork and consumed in its entirety. Our steaks were cooked as we ordered but sadly featured a great deal of connective tissue that had to be cut away. This should not happen on an expensive cut of meat and distracted from what would otherwise have been a very good meal. The sides were very good, the bread plate excellent, as was the service. The restaurant has interesting decor and carries off the 'old steakhouse' clubby atmosphere very well. Even for a Broadway restaurant it is expensive to dine here and the meat they serve should better reflect that price point. A simple dinner (10 oz filet and asparagus) for two with two cocktails was $200 before tip. We were disappointed, but may try again.

PATRICK, OUR WAITER WAS VERY WELCOMING AND FRIENDLY. HE MADE OUR EVENING SPECIAL.

We went here for my birthday, and the food was phenomenal. The waiters were great, the wine list was good also.

Excellent steak and cocktails! The waitstaff very attentive and eager to please !

Great atmosphere on Christmas Day 2016 - Excellent service and food!

Great food, great service. Expensive but worth every penny.

My wife and I went to Gallaghers on a (SNOWY) Saturday night after a Broadway show. Please be advised that we live in South Jersey, but the snow didn't stop us. We had a great steak and wine dinner. Thank you Gallaghers!!!

Friendly wait staff, beautifully restored dining area, and best steaks anywhere.

Best steak I have had in awhile this restaurant would make a vegan turn carnivour looking at the pictures on the walls gives you a little history lesson of the city in the early days

I have always wanted to go to Gallaghers and I finally got the opportunity this week. I was gravely disappointed, the service was HORRIBLE. Steak was awesome, drinks okay (too fruity for my taste), noise level extremely loud. Once your first course comes out, you are then rushed, you just finished your last bite when the next course appears...until coffee. Our waiter let our coffee sit in the coffee station for 12 minutes before he finally brought it to us. How do I know this, I watch my cappuccino sit on a rolling cart as it got bumped and moved and was in everyone's way. I have to admit, because of service, Gallaghers left a bad taste in my mouth.

My Boyfriend and I were there for Christmas Day Dinner. We arrived 10mins early for our table and were seated right away. Place was busy, and had a nice atmosphere. We both got fillet steaks, which were really good, a bit pricey but we had known it would be, and didn't mind as it was a special occasion. Service was a little slow, but as we were quite relaxed and our waiter was really nice, it didn't bother us. Overall it was an enjoyable meal. The one issue we had, we felt like we were being rushed to finish our food and get out so that someone else could get our table, that was a bit disappointing. And it wasn't as if we had been dilly daddling, and being really slow. I would still recommend going there, as the food was very tasty.

we had a great time and the food was good except the main attraction......the steak was tough. our waiter PAT was wonderful and the sides and oysters were delicious.

Great service and friendly atmosphere. This is not my first time here for dinner and it will definitely not be my last!!

Steaks are exceptional & service is great. Our son had swordfish & it was amazing too. We really enjoy the family style too.

Friendly and attentive staff, and truly amazing steak.

What an amazing meal and experience. We went New Year's Eve before hitting Times Square for the Ball Drop. Aside from the maitre d' ( who was rude and condescending what cloud did he fall off of lol) everything else was off the chart amazing. The drinks were made to taste and satisfy. Our bartender was friendly cordial and engaging, our waiter had an amazing gregarious personality - the food was beyond excellent. Steak that was prepared masterfully and succulent lobster that was the tastiest I ever had. A 4.999 out of 5 start night.

Steaks were awesome but my daughters steak had to be sent back as it came out rare when she ordered it medium rare. Side vegetables were large portions and easy to share. Our waiter was annoy short but nice nonetheless

Fantastic,wonderful excellent food waiters were great

I hadn't been back in over a decade, but Gallagher's was even better than I'd remembered it. They've been in the dry aged beef game for a very long time and their expertise was evident. \n\nTake someone you want to impress and split an enormous slab of porterhouse steak to share with some mashed potatoes and broccoli rabe, the meal will knock anyone's socks off. That is if you haven't already gorged yourself on the half a loaf of hearty mixed breads you're served to start!

Always a great place, meat amazing, waiters very professional

I visited Gallagher´s many times in the past. Always the same - they keep the highest standard in food quality, service and general ambiance. Congratulations!

Very good place for dinner. Excellent meals and felt welcome...

Great place for a great steak and old fashioned ambience!

We went to lunch there before seeing Jersey Boys. We all ordered off the set menu. I had the sliced filet mignon and it was delicious, cut like butter and melted in your mouth. The date bread they put on the table before the meal was so good it was like a dessert. Also had the wedge salad and cheesecake for dessert. Everything was fantastic. Would definitely recommend this restaurant and would go again.

amazing food \nprice fixes lunch is fantastic value

All a New York steak house should be. Went for dinner saw a show came back for dessert and drinks. Symply just ammazing.

The steak was amazing! Absolutely loved it and the price wasn't bad either!

Very upscale and eclectic restaurant. Great ambiance and service. Great food but very, very expensive.

Everything was great but the steak. I asked for medium rare and it was medium. There wasn't an ounce of juice in the steak. We were seated by the kitchen and watched the chef stab the meat repeatedly with a large timed fork. ALL OF THE JUICE WENT INTO THE GRILLE AND NOT MY STEAK. iT WASN'T EVEN GOOD FOR LEFT OVERS!

The food was excellent, no doubt about it. My steak was maybe the best I ever had. The cheesecake was maybe the best I ever had. The sides (creamed spinach and mushrooms) and salad were exceptional. Even the coffee was great. The service was great - until we got our steaks. After that, no one paid attention to us for the next 30 minutes. That's no exaggeration. It was like we were invisible. Granted, the restaurant got crowded. But still, 30 minutes without a waiter stopping by to ask us if we were ok, or to fill up our water? That was disappointing. Even with the service lacking, I would still give this place 4 stars, because the food was that good.

Gallagher's provides excellent service and delicious steaks prepared perfectly. We shared mashed potatoes and sauteed string beans as sides and had mores than enough for the two of us. The atmosphere is warm and friendly and service is excellent. This was my first dinner there........I've enjoyed lunch there once before.

Amazing Food, amazing service. Went back 2days later for lunch! Fantastic!

NICE steak house

Enormous portions!! A phenomenal, juicy fillet mignon that was full of flavour. A noteworthy old fashioned cocktail and wonderful service

Absolutely amazing service and experience! I would recommend this restaurant to anyone!! It was epic! Food was beautiful!

This was my first time in this place; Very good !!! Se you soon...👍

Wonderful food, service and ambiance. Highly recommended.

Lovelovelove! If you like real meat and really good meat this is the place. Absolutely the best I have eaten in New York. We spent New Year's Eve there and it was nothing but excellent.

The ambiance was fantastic, all of the wait staff was eager to provide the best customer experience, and the steaks were spectacular!

Steaks are great. Ambience too. Our server was negligent and messed up my husband's 1st course order. The server was obviously more interested in 'kissing ass' with his 6 tops instead of his 2 tops. Food is good. Maybe we just had a not so good server.

This was our second time at Gallaghers, \nFood supergood, our waiter 'Tony' was excellent, good wine recomenddation, dessert yummy!!!!!\nThey just missed party favor and little festive ambience for a New Years eve dinner....the res was spectacular!

We thoroughly enjoyed our meal on new year eve staff and atmosphere most delightful I would definitely recommend and return next time I'm over from the uk 🇬🇧

Went for New Year's Eve for early dinner- waiter was very friendly and helpful- suggested different cut of meat to for my son's dinner- was excellent choice - all appetizers, entrees and desserts were perfectly prepared and presented - wine was excellent - just a great dinner! \nNext time we are in New York City, will stop in again, definitely

Came here before NYE festivities. Getting through the crowds was a hassle (reservation at 5:30, got there around 7:30 after leaving at 4 to get there). Still, host was very understanding when we called to advise him of this. Upon arriving, were seated promptly, drinks served right away and the waiter couldn't have been more knowledgeable and kind. The food was outstanding. Obviously, a place outside Times Square in Midtown is a little pricey but if you make a reservation here, you know what you're looking for. Loved the history of the restaurant, the Manhattan cocktail was potent and dessert was awesome too. All in all, a great experience. My brother and I brought out parents here for a joint Christmas/NYE celebration, and they truly appreciated it. Gallaghers was recommended to me and in kind, I will recommend to my friends too!

Great Porterhouse!

Good but quite expensive for a steak dinner, water ( we got a flue so sadly alcohol that evening ) & sides.\n Steak was good cooked, I would have preferred not to have buttered on top of it.\nI personally prefer Italy's 'Fiorentina al sangue ',

We had a great meal before our show.\n\nFood & services were awesome.

Food was spectacular. John, our waiter was just awesome! A bit pricey but for special occasions well worth it. Highly recommend Gallagher's and definitely try the creamed spinach!

Really delicious food. It's pricey but well worth a visit. Nice buzzing atmosphere but not so loud that you can't hold a conversation. Would definitely recommend. A great way to finish off our visit to NYC

Awesome experience as always. Best aged steak you can get, cooked perfectly.

My 17 year old son and I came to town looking at colleges. Great place to have a steak dinner and go to the theater after. Better than Ruth Chris and on par with the Capitol Grill.

The food was fantastic. The meet cuts were of the chart.\nService was pretty inattentive as the place was very busy and obviously they were understaffed.

We thoroughly enjoyed our experience at Gallagher's. This was my husband and my's fourth visit and our daughter's first. Filet and sirloin were outstanding, Bernaise sauce delicious. Our waiter, Adam, was very attentive and skilled at his craft, as were the rest of the wait staff. Food was presented nice and warm. Shrimp cocktail was excellent and nice and cold! We will return again.

Best crab cake I ever had. Filet mignon and ribeye steaks were cooked to perfection. Mashed potatoes were creamy and broccoli were sautéed to the right tenderness.

Wow. What a great NYC dining experience--you feel like a celebrity just being there. Effortless service. A+ food, classy atmosphere--you can feel the history. The filet and lamb were fantastic. Veal carpacio was a great starter and key lime pie, a good ending.

Our steaks were overcooked. We asked for medium and half of the steak was called correctly while the other half was medium well. My girlfriends was even more cooked to a medium well to well done on half. The couple next to use asked for medium to medium rare and theirs came out very rare. They sent it back and then it came out medium well instead of rare. We we both younger couples and we seemed to be the only ones with issues. We enjoyed the steakhouse we went to earlier in the week alot more.

Excelent steak. Only one star minus as it was a little bit cold.

Super-Delicious prime rib....will certainly come back when we visit NYC again!

Large dry age room. Steak and service both excellent

Excellent. Very friendly staff and food was great.

The food, service and atmosphere we excellent as well as the drinks and wine list

Excellent food and service. Ideal location in the heart of the theater district.

Beautiful decoration and high quality of meats. But, served with cold plates and dishes. Thought it might be waited to long to take out from the kitchen area. With this price, not quite worth.

We had some of the best steaks of our life at this restaurant! We are there after I proposed and it was absolutely the best choice! I'm of the opinion that a good steak should not rely on steak sauce. However, there steak sauce was phenomenal! And the steaks were cooked to perfection. We will be visiting their restaurant again.

The porterhouse was perfect ! The french onion soup\nWas amazing ! Will not disappoint ! Steak and Service along with wine menu makes this a perfect dinner in NYC and Times Square. You get what you pay for !

Gallaghers is a decent steakhouse but seems to have dipped below the top tier of NYC steak places. Steak was not as tender or tasty as competition. \n\nAppetizers, sides and desserts were top notch. Very nice wine list. \n\nBut we go for the steak and it did not measure up to what we expected nor experienced at the other top NYC steak places.

A friend had recommended Gallaghers if we visited NYC and overall we were not disappointed. The steaks were delicious and perfectly cooked. It compares well with other steak chains in the city. I had Oysters to start and they were very enjoyable.\nThe only downside of the restaurant was the noise level. It was very lively and energetic so not any easy place for a quiet, romantic environment.

Gallaghers was always famous for Prime Rib. Monday evening the Prime Rib was sold out!\nAnd the reception told us that it happened often recently.

it's a fantastic experience! food and service excellente.

Meat was exceptional.\n\nWine quite pricey but always is in USA.\n\nWaited a long time to receive menus and tables very close together. \n\nWould return as steak was so good.

Food and service excellent. I had and recommend the surf and turf , also at the table were two other filet mignon dishes and prime rib. All cooked perfectly. Service great, with multiple people coming by and asking was everything OK. Waiter very pleasant.

The hospitality was courteous.\nI enjoyed the dressing room at the entrance so that my jacket didn't smell the kitchen.

Can't imagine having a better dinning experience. Outstanding food and service.

Our tablet was waiting, the staff made us comfortable and served well and made good suggestions. The meal was better than anticipated. Do not go if you are worried about what it may cost.

Genuine US steakhouse but also more than that. As European defenatly a place to go to. Great food, clean an good service. Yes, ready to go back on a next occasion.

Excellent aged steaks, lively atmosphere , great drinks .

Food was amazing but service was bit slow, but worth the wait.

Great service. One of the best steak houses in NYC. Highly recommended.

It's not cheap but the food is good . Staff very nice. They were very busy on this holiday, but the service was very good. My reservation asked for a table separate from the crowd and our table was perfect. I would go back here.

Always a great meal here. First time here on christmas, definitely an experience!

They really know how to handle meat - WOW!\n\nAt theatre district and so quite frequented with people rushing at 6pm30 to make it to their show.\n\nPrice is fine for the quality of food but, not for this turbulent atmosphere.

Great wait staff, perfect ambiance and absolutely amazing steaks!

The best, Andrew & Tony was spot on service deluxe! Our table was ready 30 nins. before our reserved time. Waited 11 years to finally got a table to eat at this place and the Porterhouse was great!

Amazing place we loved it! Best steak I have ever had, my wife had the swordfish which was also amazing, thankyou so much team

A wonderful dining experience. French onion soup was delicious and meat cooked to perfection. Waiter Jim was very good. Recommended. Gallagher? More like GallerGREAT!

The meat is very good, very tender. The plates are really big so we took one for two. The sides are also big and I think one for two is enough. Prices are high but if you share it's ok and you'll get enough food. The place is historic. We were sitting around a round table and it wasn't very confortable as there is just enough place to fit someone between the couch and the table. The noise level was to high.

Great experience for a visit to NYC. Excellent food, steaks are amazing although I had the crab cake because the smallest steak available is a 10 ounce filet which is too much for me. The crab cake was full of lump crab and one of the best I have had. Very noisy but is part of the experience. Excellent service. Highly recommend.

We arrived a little early for our reservation and they had us seated quickly. Our waiter was very attentive and since we were seated near the open kitchen we enjoyed watching the activity of the cooks. However, for the price of the meal we expected the food to be excellent, unfortunately it was just ok.

Gallaghers NEVER disappoints! The husband & I had a wonderful Christmas Day Dinner. It has been our favorite NYC restaurants for years.

Just excellent, great staff, amazing meat, ambiance, Atmosphere. Great experience

Terrific filet mignon and cold seafood platter, great cheesecake and key lime pie for dessert, and top-notch service in a classic old-school Manhattan steakhouse.

The steaks were delicious and the service was very good. All in all a great time. they didn't rush us and were very helpful when ordering.

The restaurant is very crowded, and they pack you in. We had a very noisy group seated behind us, which made conversation close to impossible. However, the food was excellent. The mushroom and butter sauce for my filet was amazing.

top much expensive

Excellent staff & excellent food . Noisy but can't be helped due to being so busy all the time !

The evening was planned: starting with a 'best Old Fashions in NYC' treasure hunt for my husband and his brother, with the final stop Gallaghers, where we, my sister in law and their 2 kids, and I would meet them for dinner. Their favorite Old Fashions were at Gallaghers, a lively classic bar, with great cocktails. Our dinner, which included Brussel sprouts and salad starters were delicious, followed by Lamb chops, steaks and finished with cheese cake. Every meal expertly cooked. Our server was attentive, gave good and affordable wine recommendations. Definitely had the feel of Old New York, a classic family restaurant worth the visit!

Wonderful porterhouse!! Christmas dinner was great.

Excellent food, service, environment~~~this is a must dine!

This was one of my favorite restaurants prior to their remodel but since the remodel the quality has decreased but price has stayed the same. While it is not bad, it is not what it once was.

We were recommended to eat here ( we're from Aus) . We ordered the dumplings of entree and the rib eye and sirloin. The dumplings were okay . The steak was cooked to perfection . Seemed as though we were part of s production line ( eat and get out) which was quite disappointing. Although very expensive , it was gear quality steak.

Appetizers, 3 1/2 pound lobsters, cocktails and overall service was outstanding. Will definitely recommend you to friends.

Steaks were not flavorful. Disappointing meal overall

As always, Gallagher's serves excellent food, we had oysters, tomato and onion salad and a NY sirloin. Food all fine, steaks aged, seafood fresh, vegetables fresh and tasty, service accomplished. If you are headed to the theater, they get you out in time.

Awesome NYC Experience with my Daughter!! Loved everything about it!!

Great service; ran out of what we'd ordered but offered excellent option; great pre-theatre and/or business meeting option. Also very accommodating to my dad in a wheelchair.

Make sure you get 'Dan' as your head waiter. We was the MAN and made the entire experience awesome for my family. Thanks Dan

A REAL steakhouse ambiance. Great drinks, service and Porterhouse to die for. The sides are delicious and shareable. Theaters are essily accessible so you can linger over an early dinner or stop in quickly after the show. Showcase of the air drying aged beef gets the salivary glands pumping!

As always, fantastic service and food, a cut above everyone else. Patrick, our waiter, was outstanding as has been every member of the waitstaff when we've gone.

Loved it here! Went on the first night of our break in New York on the recommendation of a friend who had taken a holiday a week earlier. Enjoyed it so much we made a return visit for our final meal before leaving NYC. Wanted to end the break with a good memory! Place is busy but staff were great and friendly and the food was incredible.

We had a late reservation but arrived early and although the restaurant was extremely croweded management went out of their way to accomadate is. Drinks are no joke, Food was excellent, what you would expect from a high end NY steakhouse. Drank wine by the glass with dinner better quality than Capital Grill and much less inexpensive. Staff was super attentive. I go back in a New York minute!

While the cost seems extravagant, the food is worth every penny. It was a special way for us to end our trip to New York!

We arrived an hour ahead of our reservation and they seated us, which was nice. Service was slower than we are used to at similar restaurants. The major complaint though was that our steaks came to the table at room temperature - really. I had the porterhouse and my wife had the filet. The steaks had fantastic taste and were spot on at medium rare, but they must have sat for some time between being prepared and being placed at our table, which leads me to believe it was a service issue. In fact, as it turned out, our steaks were placed in front of the couple next to us, then shifted back to the delivery tray then to us after they learned of the error. One small delta, the oysters were not detached from the shells. However, they finished strong by bringing the dessert and coffee to the table at the same time. Too often restaurants will bring the coffee first and by the time the dessert arrives at the table the coffee has already been finished.

Highly recommend for any occasion.

Outstanding evening in every way. Food was delicious. Rick, our waiter was an amazing host for the evening. Top shelf.

This restaurant did not honor their prices on the menu on Open Table. When questioned they said it was an old menu and their prices were higher than published. In addition the waiter never came by to ask me if my steak was cooked as ordered. It was burned to a crisp. Then when they cleared the table they took my wine and I still had a half of glass left. I told them and they brought me an eighth of a glass. Overall, kind of a weird dining experience.

I really enjoyed the food at Gallaghers. Everything was cooked to perfection and arrived at our table quickly. The restaurant itself it really nice. I like being able to see the chefs at work. My only negative was the service. Our waiter was friendly and great, but we lost sight of him after we finished dessert. It took a while for us to flag him down to get our bill.

We were on a 6 day trip from the UK, we had been recommended by friends to dine at Gallaghers for the outstanding steak, and we weren't disappointed, the steak is the best I have ever eaten. The restaurant is amazing and everyone who visits New York must eat at Gallaghers.

Excellent food! Great service!

The food was fantastic, but it was pretty noisy. I also think our waiter could tell we weren't as rich as some of the other clientele around us, and was a bit brisk with his service-perfectly polite but eager to move on. We had another server as well however, who was charming and exceedingly helpful and gracious, so split the difference I guess! :) amazing wine list, and the interior is gorgeous to behold. My lamb was really delicious, but for the price, I wish the ambiance had been a bit better. Overall we had a nice experience.

Great table near the kitchen - lots of atmosphere but still able to have a conversation. Side portions are HUGE so we wasted a lot of food. Filet mignon was excellent and service was also great - attentive but not pushy. Will be back!

Waiter was very friendly and service was very fast. The restaurant was clean. The food was delicious and steak melted in your mouth. I was very happy with the experience. Celebrated my sons 18 bday.

Great food!!

Went to Gallagers before a show. food was fabulous. they were conscious of the time and the waiter, Jimmy was outstanding.

We had reservations for an after show dinner, as my fiance and I were craving steak. Gallagher's didn't disappoint with a whopping Tomahawk Ribeye for 2. We asked for medium rare, but the steak came out quite rare. However, after a few minutes on a scorching hot plate, the meat reached our desired level. Good flavor from the inside out, delicious. Will probably try a different cut next time.

We were in New York for our anniversary and after the show we had reservations. We arrived about an hour early and the host suggested we wait at the bar. The bartender was extremely nice and we had wine while waiting. The atmosphere is classy and the decor is reallly cool with autographed photos of celebs on the wall throughout. The host came and seating us on time and our waiter was gracious and attentive (not overbearing). Steaks were fantastic! The lump crab appitizer and crab cakes were to die for as well. These guys are the best and know how to give a true dining experience. Best meal we had while in NY!

Great place to dine , with your partner or family.\nThis was our 2nd visit to New York & our 2nd visit to Gallaghers , we love the place and will be back again next year on our visit to New York in Oct 17.\nWe were served by Michael who was very friendly & made us feel right at home in the restaurant.\nI would say this is somewhere for a special occasion with its sophisticated feel & ambience.\nThe steak here is 2nd to none & came perfectly to our liking.

Food and ambience was excellent however we did leave our leftovers in the restaurant because we were going to a show and when we came back to pick up our food it wasn't there. They did give us another bag of food that looked like it could've been ours, but we weren't sure that it was ours so we were a little disappointed that our bag of food wasn't there when they assured us that it would be...afterall, we had a $200 lunch bill and we were taking half of our food home...other than that little mishap, everything else was excellent and I would highly recommend it for the food, but I wouldn't recommend leaving your doggie. bag there to pick up after a show!

Each of us had a different steak. My husband had a NY strip, I had filet mignon and my 13 year old neice had Prime rib. Each of them was the BEST steak we have ever had.

Exactly what you would expect of a paneled aged beef steakhouse. Great professional service, charred steak, great sides to share, and top shelf cocktails and wine list.\n\nAnd additional note: Service should not be more intrusive than invited to be, and then be authentic. Our waiter was all of this, as well as informative about the restaurant history, and food prep. Thoroughly enjoyable. Never underestimate the importance of professional service. And the kitchen does not short change the wait staff. Well done!

When I go to a steakhouse (often) I usually wind up getting the large filet and always finish that and my fiance's filet...NY steakhouses especially, they are able to be cut with a fork...that said, I couldn't even cut this tough filet even with a sharp knife..no taste, undercooked for medium, and didn't even bother to take it home. The vegetable (sautéed spinach) needed some flavor and was a bit cold also. The deserts and appetizers/salad were excellent as was the service.

Great evening spent at Gallaghers. Recommended by a friend in England from a previous trip and glad I paid them a visit. A real treat, great atmosphere, friendly service, very talented to remember all those specials! Is there a better steak in NY? No, there can't be! Definitely check out Gallaghers, worth every penny.

Great steakhouse, porterhouse up with best...sides are a little weak...salads good...service great

The food and atomosphere was great. There was a parking garage right across the street.\nThe service was excellent. Very nice place. Would recommend to everyone.

Came here with my three adult sons for a much needed get together on a Saturday night. Guy thing STEAK! Sat at the bar for cocktails pre-dinner. Nice to see 'Real' Bartenders that know their craft. Paul was great, and made martinis for discerning drinkers and they were spot on. Our waiter and wait staff were great... know the business, know STEAK. Our waiter thirty years there... Steaks were cooked perfectly, and the sides were steakhouse comforting... Great place... Go there if you want to enjoy and have a great full bodied meal with full bodied prices. \n\nBut...while we were not in a hurry, the place was packed (NYC 53rd street... Holidays...). Other diners in a hurry would not have reviewed so favorably. Definitely a go back to restaurant.

We had a 4pm reservation. Showed up at 345pm. Seated at 355pm. Took a while for a waiter to come take our drink order. Once he took it. We waited for close to 20 mins for our beverages to come out. A waiter from another table ended up taking our food order and helping us when he saw me looking around for our waiter. Between him and another waiter we got taken care of. The steak was not seasoned. I couldnt find my waiter so I borrowed the salt and pepper from the table next to us since we didn't have any to try and help the steak out. Cooked to the correct temperature but was as bland as my English grandmothers cooking. Both mine and my wife's knives were about as sharp a butter knife. I seriously debating using my pocket knife. We would've asked for more but we were not checked on during our meal. A friend who lives locally recommended Gallagher's. Wish I had gone to Del Frisco instead. Being from texas we have high expectations of what steak should taste like. I would not recommend this restaurant to any friends.

Our first dining experience at Gallagher's and certainly will not be our last. Food and service was exceptional. We have been to many steakhouses and this was our favorite.

We enjoyed our evening and were thankful to be able to get reservations.

The food and service were outstanding. One of the best meals I had ever had.

Poor food, poor service and poor value. I have the sense of an establishment living on past reputation rather than current ambition.

Every time we come from Europe to New York we go to Gallagher's for an excellent meal.

Outstanding food and service! My husband and I shared a bottle of wine and then we each enjoyed perfectly cooked filet mignon. We ordered the lyonnaise potatoes and also mushrooms as side dishes and they were delicious accompaniments. We had reservations and were seated immediately upon arrival and the wait staff was superb!

Absolutely FAB experience. The food, restaurant and staff were excellent. Unfortunately I was in a rush to get to an appt. but the staff was wonderful and very quickly I was eating a most delicious meal and on my way. Wonderful place for a romantic evening.

Fantastic experience! Great food and service! We will definitely come here again.

Filet was charred to a crisp and chewey

Great steaks and the steakhouse atmosphere too match. Not as expensive as you might imagine.

This restaurant was just fabulous. We went for our 22nd anniversary and it was perfect. Wonderful food, terrific service, and incredible ambiance! I will definitely be going back!

Great atmosphere ,great service ,great food

Great Food.\nThe only negative was the unsweetened ice tea I ordered.Though it wasn't mentioned as an ingredient,there was enough mint in one glass to flavor a gallon.I don't care for it in my drinks.

Food was great

Excellent food and tremendous service

Food, service ans abeyance was perfect, to celebrate both of our birthdays.

Great experience , lots of energy, waitstaff friendly and very attentive. Excellent food

This is a nice place to have a steak in NYC. The tables are very close together and it is a little noisy from the amount of people in the restaurant. You will want to make reservations. Our meals were prepared wonderfully. The meat was excellent. The service was great.

FABULOUS, best food we had while in NY. All the employees were top notch. Would go back to NY just for another delicious meal.

The filet, asparagus and mac and cheese were all delicious.

Fantastic cut of meat. Ideal post matinee theater dining.

Terrible experience. Never again! Jimmy was the Maitre D' and Lorenz was the head waiter Maitre D as well .\n\nwe had a 645 res for 9 people and was told to wait . We would up waiting another 45 mins for table to clear while we drank at the bar.\n\n Food was undercooked - i ordered the long Bone Rib Eye Medium Rare - it came out raw. i sent it back and it came back slightly warmer and still un eatable . Waiter offered something else after the rest of my party was half way through their meal. they didnt charge us for the Rib Eye.\n\nService took forever to deliver the meal . Main Courses took more than 45 mins to come . \nWaiter provided the bill then a few mins later apologized that he made a mistake on the wine and had to add another $150 to the bill . how embarrassing after we had just presented payment.\n\nDesserts took forever to come - we got up to leave and then they arrived. We said - send it back .\n\nNo one ever asked us how we enjoyed the meal. \n\nHorrible experience entertaining a very important client of mine\n\nNever going back !

Much improved from past ownership, the old place was OK and had a nice nostalgic sports theme to it but it seemed tried and the staff was uninterested. Now the vibe is a good mix of the old sports theme with more energy and good service.

Amazing place, level of service was on par with the quality and taste of food. Great for special occasions or dates or even just a nice night out. Pricey, but worth it.

Wonderful experience in a place that should be valued for their quality of menu, service and treating guests very special. The history and coziness of this place deserves it to be much more known, however we don't mind it being a bit of a hidden gem!

This is my favourite restaurant in New York City. I will eat at this restaurant every time I visit this great city. This time was my honeymoon which made it extra special. And we ended up having a great chat with the guys on the next table. Love this place

Excellent food & service. Only suggestion would be to have smaller than 10 oz. filet mignon. Could not eat entire portion

We went for a pre-theater lunch. It couldn't have been better- Great food, attentive service and a nice relaxing atmosphere. In a word- perfect!

The 14 oz filet was great as was the Dover Sole Special. I had the wedge and my wife enjoyed the beet salad. Great Mac and Cheese side and outstanding Cheesecake!

Food was very average considering the price. My husband had a steak and I had the stuffed shrimp. My food came room temperature and when sent back to be heated, the plate came back hot but the food was the same! Was not worth the money. I understand it's under new management so that must be the difference? With all the restuarants to choose from in New York, I recommend you spend your hard earned dollars elsewhere. Sorry.

Good food and great service. The steak was cooked exactly how I ordered it. Our waiter was great. Portions were huge. The restaurant was conveniently located and quite comfortable. It has been in business since 1927. Steak is so good and makes me happy as I am currently trying to meet the 50 word requirement. I feel like I am in college again. Go to Gallaghers. You won't be sorry.

Gallagher's is a classic NYC steakhouse with a lot of history. The atmosphere is great!! Love the old time photos. You can always count on a great meal at Gallagher's. Our waiter was classic NYC and was a true professional with many years of experience.

Probably the most flavorful steak I've ever tasted. Cooked exactly how I ordered it. Gallagher's is a breath-taking place. Anyone you bring here would be impressed.

First time back since the remodel a few years ago. Just like I remembered.

Sadly one of our favorite places disappointed us. The waiter never asked if we wanted a drink or appetizers. We felt like he wasn't interested in waiting on us.

It was 4 pm maybe not even that late and the host kept us ' waiting' at the door for an unusual long time. Our table was finally 'ready' and he sat us. We'll there was 1 other couple eating get in the room we were in. All of the tables were set and ready. We were 7 and I think he is told to keep people waiting for no good reason. Waited forever for a drink,annoying. And the food was ridiculously expensive. The food was good yes. The waiter was nice and friendly. However I don't think I'll be going back. We also had multiple waiters and one of them told us about the movie star he just waited on. Not impressed,we don't care! Sorry it's a miss

Onion Soup , Very Good , Filet Mignon prepared as ordered . Great selection of Vegetable sides ,\n\nVeggie were cold when served , Overall good dining experience , even though tables for two were jammed too close for comfort .

Great first experience at Gallagher's! Restaurant was recommended by a friend and it didn't disappoint. We were celebrating my wife's 40th birthday in NYC so we decided to try it. I was worried after reading some of the reviews as many of them mentioned the closeness of the tables and lacy of privacy. It turned out to be the opposite. We were seated at a 2 top table between 2 other tables that was so close to the other two that my wife had to slide the tables together to give herself a 6-12 inch gap to get to her seat. We had great conversations with the couple beside us and after they left we were able to talk to a couple from England. The steaks were fantastic and the side were delicious. I had mentioned in my reservation that we were celebrating a birthday and to my surprise at the end of dinner they waiters came out singing and with cake. It was a great meal with cool ambiance and great conversations.

We waited at the bar (worst bartender ever, contemptuous) during 23 minutes although with a reservation, some people being seated before us, when they should not have. \nThe meat is great and expensive.\nThe waiter, à the table, felt sorry for us and was, I Must say, very nice. But too late.\nNever missed Gallagher's on my NYC trips (when open). This was my last and final time there.

Very amazing food although expensive worth it. A place to remember

the meat was not as expected , as we use to have in a good steackhouse in USA .

Gallagher's is a typical New York steakhouse. When we arrived we walked past an enclosed room with masses of amazing beef so it looked like a good choice.\nThe portions were of course very large but of a great quality. One of our party ordered a 'blue' steak and I ordered a medium steak however they got the order round the wrong way! When we pointed this out to our waiter he called over one of the managers and they offered to bring another blue steak but as our friend had already eaten part of my steak we declined the offer. They said that they wouldn't charge for her steak and brought a large complimentary fruit platter which they didn't need to do. The issue was handled well but we would have preferred that they got the order right - the issue seemed to be in the kitchen and not with our waiter..

As usual, Gallaghers was great! Wonderful steaks, great service and a fun old New York atmosphere. We try to go every time we're in NYC.
