Editorial Review for Uncle Jack's Steakhouse: Westside NYC – by Citysearch Editors
The Scene
Two soaring stories, draped in red-velvet curtains with dramatic opera boxes overlooking the dining room, couldn't be more indulgent: Bordello lamps hang above plush, upholstered round booths, and suited mixologists man the showpiece wood bar. Service is extraordinary: Between all the hosts, maitre d's, wait captains and servers, diners are pampered until the last bite.
The Food
The standard steakhouse menu arrives in the form of a monologue, but it's also written on the blackboard above the bar. Crab cakes, crispy-crusted baked clams, and gorgeously dressed, crispy Caesars draped with fresh-cured anchovies are good starts. The prime dry-aged steaks are some of the city's priciest, but they're worth the splurge: T-bones and Flintstone-sized rib eyes arrive with a crispy broiled crust, which accounts for their impressive juiciness. Desserts include a gooey chocolate souffle, super-sweet creme brulee and a decadent Mississippi mud cake.

Insider Tips
What to DrinkThe wine list is surprisingly affordable: Renwood's Barbera and Viogner ($40) are two great bottles for the price.
Look GoodA porterhouse for two is the restaurant's signature offering and generously portioned for couples on a date.

5 stars for the ambiance and, more importantly, the steak. My boyfriend and I got a cozy, romantic table that was sort of a semi-circular booth, and our steaks were simply out of this world. Mine was cooked just right, although his was not (I can't remember whether he said it was too rare or too well-done, but it was one or the other). Also, the lobster cocktail I got for an appetizer was crazy-good.
Pros: Enjoy the steaks

Just got back from Uncle Jack's, and all I can say is "Wow". My boyfriend and I both had the Prime Filet, both cooked to perfection (mine Med Rare, his Rare). I at first thought that the $40 price tag for a filet was a bit pricey, but you must consider that this is not your Outback filet- this is a huge 16 ounce steak. The flavor was sublime. The garlic mashed potatoes were great, and the sauteed green beans were to die for, with nice big chunks of garlic and some spices. Unfortunately, given the huge steak there was no room for dessert- I even brought home a doggie bag for the remainder of my steak (admitedly, not much), and my girls went nuts over the steak too. The wine list was extensive (again, a bit pricy, but so many choices!). This is definitely the place to go if you want a steak that will knock your socks off. Oh, and the service was phenomenal as well- not pushy, but extremely knowledgeable and helpful.
Pros: The huge 16 ounce steak, and flavor was sublime
Cons: No room for dessert
