I went one week before the City close down..Great place to take clients., but would not rave over the steaks.. For just steaks I like: Gallagher's and Keens..
Yea for sure. It's more for ribs and lamb and then steaks it's also to have when you haven't eaten all day. Also make sure If you go, you get this drink, the Caipirinha

I hope the pain is shared by more than just the operators/restaurant owners, and that there are both support by government to get by, but also rates on rent/leases being adjusted downward appropriately to reflect the market.

That restaurant i posted. Has a maitre di a host, probably 30 ppl in the kitchen about 25 waiters. I woule guess they employ minimum 100 workers and order so much food from baldors and other produce and food vendors. That's just one successful restaurant.

Where waiters probably make a good living.

Hey What the Hell ever Happened to Cheap Steak Charlies All the Beer, Wine, Sangria, and Shrimp you could Drink and Eat. and there Steaks were Cheap. Those were the Best Days. I went with a group of guys Slipped the waiter a $50.00 The Beer, Wine and Sangri never stopped coming to the table. We got so drunk and loud the manager asked us to Leave. We said if you make us Leave We will beat the Shit out of your So He came out with a Box of Steaks and a Bag of Shrimp and said Would you guys please leave now We said Okay We will see you Tommmow. Great Fuckin Times Then were drove down 11th Ave and Picked up a Few ladies of the Night.

Since restaurants are closed except for takeout, this is a great time to learn and experiment with steak cooking at home. If you want good steaks, buy the best prime grade rib eyes and cook yourself. You can have a $100 steakhouse steak for less than $25.

Damn, lots of cool posts since I last checked in. Might have to order Japan Premium Beef. I've heard of some terrible things about Mercato billing wise. A little apprehensive.

Cool little anecdote about Caipirihna. Never knew about the whole Pinga thing, although I definitely knows what it means in Spanish lol. I've done Fogo de Chao in the city for that higher end Brazilian AYCE thing. Would recommend.

Bloomin Onions are an amazing gluttony. I used to do Beefsteak Charlie's at Whitestone followed up by a trip to the arcade for family nights when I was a kid.

Also I can vouch for Meet the Meat in Astoria unfortunate name be damned. Also had a good experience at Christos in the hood too. Skip the fries though. Limp and
not crispyy at all shoestring fries.

There was one on Central Ave in Hartsdale, too.
Beefsteak Charlies and Pizza Brew.
Fine dining when I was a kid.
Hey Auto, the Best Beefsteak Charlies was in Fort Lauderdale Florida it was on the water. We would get there at 7 eat, drink and get tanked up til 10 then walk down the strip and go to the Wet T Shirt contests, bars, clubs, and strips clubs. When the bars closed then we would drive down to the Next town Pompano Beach they were opened until 5 a.m. Then we would drive back to Fort Lauderdale to the Topless Doughnut Shop which was opened at 6 a.m. We would stay there until 8. When I left their my eyes would match my pants They were both bulging. Then we drove down to Miami to the Topless Carwash. We would go through it twice. Then we drove back to Fort Laudedale for Lunch at the Titty bars. Hang out and look for girls on the beach go back to the Hotel Shower. Then it was back to Beef Steak Charlies again to indulge in the Flesh all over again. Fort Lauderdale was a mans Paradise it was Non Stop Fuckin Partying 24/7 The Beach, 4 Bikini Contest every Fuckin Weekend, Wet T shirt contests and Mud Wrestling, Cruising on Friday and Saturday Nights, Bars, Dance Clubs, a ton of Strip Clubs and Hookers. Girls riding bicycles with No Seats Just the Pole. Plus warm weather what more could you desire. Then some Old Fuck Politician Must have got the idea from Guilani and some Old Cunt and a Bunch of do good Seniors citizens Who never got laid decided they had to clean up the area and ruin a mans fun. I hope they all die from Prostrate Cancer. Now unfortunately the area is cleaned up and completely changed. The last place to go was Pure Platinum and the new places Suck.
