"Since its debut in the early 1800s, thisFiDirestaurant has been through some changes, but the 19th-century dining room still exudes old-world glamor, hosting retired investment bankers in freshly steamed sport coats, who eat lamb chops under retro light fixtures. Get the signature Delmonico steak, a juicy, top-shelf 18 oz rib-eye that remains one of the more flavorful cuts around town. They’ve also modernized the menu with Sichuan peppercorn sauce and spicy kosho butter in the mix. This place works for a client meeting, special occasion date, or impressing out-of-town relatives." - Team Infatuation
"For eating red meat while talking regulatory developments, there’s no steakhouse we’d recommend more than Delmonico’s. Since its debut in the early 1800s, this FiDi restaurant has been through many changes, but the historic room still exudes old-world glamor. You could go big with some rib eye, but the lunch menu also has some more casual options, like a $49 steak frites, sandwiches, and a burger." - willa moore, bryan kim, molly fitzpatrick, will hartman, sonal shah
"New York’s oldest restaurant, open since 1837, has been credited with many things including the originator of the New York strip and lobster Newberg. It also spawned a recent ferocious battle for ownership. Yet it remains one of the more solid options in the neighborhood, an old-school steakhouse with a less expensive (and lively) back bar. Go here for the Delmonico steak or burger, chicken a la Keene, and the baked Alaska for dessert." - Eater Staff
"Delmonico’s started life as a confectioner’s, and it’s been through many changes, and many locations, over the two centuries since then. Along the way, it’s set trends—like bringing a la carte dining to the city—and burned down multiple times. In its latest incarnation, it's steakhouse with classic chops and seafood, but also ingredients like kosho butter and yuzu vinaigrette. With murals and velvet banquettes, it's a little kitsch, but the food is as good as ever. Delmonico steak, baked alaska, eggs benedict, lobster Newberg Charles Dickens, Mark Twain, at least 11 U.S. presidents" - bryan kim, molly fitzpatrick, willa moore, will hartman, sonal shah
"For eating red meat while talking market outlooks and regulatory developments, there’s no steakhouse we’d recommend more than Delmonico’s. Since its debut in the early 1800s, this FiDi restaurant has been through many changes, but the historic room still exudes old-world glamor, with newer touches—velvet blue banquettes, LED table lamps—that give it a little corporate sheen." - molly fitzpatrick, bryan kim, willa moore, will hartman, sonal shah
