What People Are Saying About Craftsteak
The Editor

Chef Tom Colicchio's corner spot on 10th Avenue's restaurant row has a mostly male crowd who can be found reposing in the open lounge or knocking back strong cocktails at the lengthy bar. A two-story glass wine tower separates the dining area, a sprawling, high-ceilinged space where butter-colored banquettes are the best seats in the house. Which of the 20 steaks to get depends largely on budget (sizeable cuts of Wagyu can balloon past $100), but there is also plenty else on the menu to admire like the excellent raw bar and farm-fresh veggie selection.

Great food Terrible Service
by rsamson718 at Citysearch
Our waiter failed on so many levels its too much to describe here. Just a taste--no utensils at dessert, when we inquired about ordering the soufle in advance of getting the dessert menus because we knew of the timing he took that to mean we didn't want a soufle. When we asked to speak to a manager no one came by. I had to get up from my table to get utensils from another table.
Good Luck CRAFTSTEAK
- Pros: the short ribs are amazing

Be Honest
by DecaSooner at Citysearch
Most people look up to you to be honest in your opinions, allot of you seem to be uppies who expect the world maybe justifiably so but you go a little overboard.
You don't go to Craftsteak for a glass of wine so don't review wine prices, sure it adds to the "over all experience" but lets talk Steak, others seem to think its where God eats, you obviously work there or dined on a Wednesday.
For an over all experience go to Outback, they have a worldwide reputation to uphold and the price cant be beat or even Ruth Chris since you want to throw around money.
Craftsteak seems to me that they are famous in town and so they can act accordingly, such as pale service, cold food hey your at Craftsteak Right!
You want a steak, come to Japan Kobe beef is to me in a tie with black-angus tenderloin as far as perfection and you don't need 4 different sauces to get past the gamy taste your probably going to get at Craftsteak
Also your evening is going to be decided on the date you choose to go, go on a Saturday night = plan for the best expect the worst, Tuesday night less hassle, better service, better food
Hey the place is average at best, and didn't seem to think they had to earn my loyalty hence I only went twice, yes Sat and Tues which justifies this across the board rating of Average

The Details on Craftsteak
The Extras:
A private room can be reserved for larger parties. Call for details.
Know Before You Go:
Vegetarians can create a hearty meal from fresh salads, a lovely al dente risotto, various potato sides, and those greenmarket vegetables.
What to Drink:
The wine list will please the connoisseur, but mix things up and pair draft beer with your steak. The local Sixpoint Grand Crue or Smutty Nose IPA stand up to the rich flavors and high-end cuts.
