WORST NYC STEAKHOUSE

by neanea_

i had a party of 8 - so a 20% gratuity was automatically included in the bill. We were not asked once if we would like refills on our waters - we had to ask 6 seperate times for more water. we were not asked if we wanted appetizers. we were not asked if we wanted to see the desert menu. we ordered the $36 ribeye steaks and all we could taste was burnt grill - disgusting! AND THAT WAS ON A MEDIUM COOKED STEAK. we asked for the check and it took 20 minutes - even though the place wasn't busy. the only thing i can say was good was the mashed potatos.

  • Pros: NONE
  • Cons: overpowering burnt tasting steak - worst customer service

Wonderful experience

by nyc97124

Heard about this place from a coworker. I later chose to plan a birthday party for a friend here, and couldn't have been more pleased with the experience. The space is beautiful, and the staff was so friendly and accommodating to our large group. The menu is very detailed, as were the numerous specials that were described to us by our server. From experience, I know it's hard to find a good steak in the city but everyone in our group could conclude that tre dici STEAK really knows what they're doing. Will definitely be back.
