Great Steakhouses

Oh...by the way...my dinner table is where you can find the best grilled ribeye, au poivre, prime rib, and ribeye basted in butter.  Sorry, I can't get it that good anywhere else.

And where is the steakhouse called "My Dinner Table" located?

It's called "My Dinner Table"...open for business 7 days a week...but on an extremely limited schedule.  Reservations are a must.

Now...Peter Lugar's.  If the picture below is the best this "icon" can produce, they don't deserve to be on anyone's list.  For the money you drop there you at least deserve a clean plate.  Absolutely shameful presentation.  I wouldn't expect a plate that dirty at the local greasy spoon.  I'm utterly shocked. 

Yuck!  Peter Luger clearly does not know how to buy, age, cook, or serve steak.
edited to add quote in an effort to cut down on the confusion. 

The good news is that with all the Peter Luger haters on this board, it should be no problem for me to get a table whenever I want one.

Oh wait....no, it isn't.

I am sorry but I have to question your knowledge of a good steak.  I cannot imagine anyone making that  statement that knows what a good steak is.

OK, that's funny. You did mean to be funny, didn't you?

troll post, I believe!

I don't know if "troll post" is really accurate..
Tommy Eats really exists, UNLESS someone has been impersonating him all along..
his other posts have been just the regular type... not ones that would raise eyebrows..
this post DID catch me a bit off guard , though..
 
tommy eats has a great north NJ blog/website,   "tommyeats.com"....
TOMMY , can you tell us if you were trying to be funny, or if you REALLY DON'T LIKE Peter Luger's steaks...
there has been a lot of misunderstandings on this Roadfood board the last bunch of months...
if you ARE joking, it's best to say "LOL" after your statement, or the like...
 

Ellen,
  The post provides no backup information or basis for the poster's comments.  Those comments run  in direct opposition to everything we have read or seen regarding Peter Lugars Steak House. I labeled it a "troll post" because, without any background or followup information, it sure looks like all he wanted to to do was create an immediate reaction from other members, with no intention of providing any intelligent supporting data for his statement.
  I don't care if he is a 'Newbie' or has 139 posts... Trolling up comments is not an acceptable behavior.
 

I've edited my comment, which will hopefully answer some of those questions that have gone unanswered for the past 24 hours.

Tommy,
  Thanks for adding to you comment. With the edit, I can say it doesn't seem like a troll post now.  Do you have any personal experience with Peter Lugers? I Don't. So all my thoughts are the result of the media coverage and reviews by others. That's why I haven't raved about  (or demeaned) the place. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, so a negative comment is acceptable, if backed by experience.

how about Chuck's Steakhouse in Connecticut & Mass.
not a high priced place but reasonable with good cuts, the top sirloin is as tender as the filet but larger & less expensive with just the right seasonings
I wish there was a place like that down here that didn't charge $25 for a 16oz sirloin.  

On NYCTV they showcased some of the newer steakhouses in the city,BLT Prime,Craftsteak,Dylans Prime,LandMarc,Quality Meats,StagHorn,StripHouse. The 64oz cut at Quality Meats was quite impressive. They showed the different cuts of prime beef that each restaurant serve and the signature way they age and prepare the cuts.

Borgata Casino A.C.- Old Homestead Steakhouse (NY). The steak was SO GOOD I was having an out of body experience!
Arturo's Bally's Casino- The BEST Filet I have ever had. PERIOD. I had some of the best around in NY.
Peter Luger's- Is really really GOOD but, in my opinion, lil over rated, lil bit, lil bit. Don't get me wrong. Next to Cattlemen & Old Homestead, Peter Luger is probally pound for pound the heavy weight champ.
Wow. I could really go for a good steak right about now.
