Editorial Review for Michael Jordan's The Steak House N.Y.C. – by Daniel Rosenblatt
The Scene
The steakhouse, designed by architect David Rockwell, whose credits include Nobu, Vong and the Lincoln Center branch of Rosa Mexicano, is a sweeping 7,000-square-foot space on the northwest balcony of Grand Central Terminal. Rockwell's design is the traditionally "masculine" steakhouse model--polished mahogany and leather abound, while a large circular bar up front beckons martini and Manhattan drinkers.
The Food
The fare is typical, showcasing sundry cuts of grilled beef and broiled seafood. A giant porterhouse is available for two and arrives sizzling, tender and with an intensely beefy flavor. A New York strip steak benefits from skillful broiling that chars the exterior, sealing the juices and rendering the center lush and pink. Even filet mignon, which often lacks flavor and texture, is agreeably firm and well-seasoned.

Insider Tips
What to DrinkIn addition to the obligatory $1,400 bottle of Chateau Petrus, the American red-heavy wine list also boasts many quality bottles in the $30 range. The wines by the glass are excellent.

This is a must do at least once. Every member of the staff is very helpful and sincerely very friendly. The service is truely outstanding without hovering. Being located over the concourse of GCT is a perfect NYC experience. The food, while predictable is very, very good. Definitely pricey but, hey, what do you expect?
Pros: The service and the surroundings

I have made MJ's Steakhouse and Radio City Music Hall Christmas Show a family tradition during the Christmas Hoiiday. My 50th Bday was celebrated by having the ultmate dining experience; wined and dined in the MJ's Steakhouse VIP room along with my family. And each time, for me, there is nothing else but that porterhouse for two and a good cabernet to make for satisfying face feeding.
Pros: Excellent porterhouse. Perfect ambience during the Christmas Holiday season
Cons: Will put I slight dent in the ol' wallet
