"The steaks at this big, sleek Gramercy spot are unique in that they’re grilled over charcoal. They do their best work with the filet mignon, and the rump steak is another reliable option. Choose a steak to share with one other person, then find whatever sounds the most like it came out of a period drama set in a manor house, and order that too." - team infatuation
"Sure, you can get a great meal at Hawksmoor, the Manchester location of the London-original steakhouse, but we love the Spinningfields spot for a pre-dinner drink in its library-like bar. It feels like a members’ club without the annual fee. Unlike the restaurant, for which you need to snag a reservation, the bar—all dark wood, comfy black leather stools, and frosted windows—is almost never crowded. Their Shaky Pete is the holy trinity of slushy, shandy, and ginger beer that we didn’t know we needed." - becky cooper
"Steakhouse and London import Hawksmoor does impressive English-leaning dishes like potted beef and sticky toffee sundae. There are two small private rooms (named Lord Bronx and Ty Whoppity after the two of the first bulls of English breeds to be raised in America) within the over-the-top restaurant with vaulted ceilings and green leather booths. Get access to exclusive reservations at this spot with Chase Sapphire Reserve. New cardmembers get $300 in annual dining statement credits." - neha talreja, bryan kim, hannah albertine, will hartman
"Would you, perhaps, care for some sticky toffee pudding? How about a steak with beef fat fries? Or maybe some potted beef with a few yorkshire puddings on the side? At London import Hawksmoor, you can enjoy all of those things in a green leather booth beneath arched ceilings that wouldn’t feel out of place in a museum on the Thames. The filet is our cut of choice at this British steakhouse, but you should also try the charcoal-roasted lobster and dense creamed spinach. Just looking for drinks and dessert? The bar up front is perfect for that. Get access to exclusive reservations at this spot with Chase Sapphire Reserve.

"This British steakhouse in Flatiron probably isn’t the first restaurant that comes to mind when you’re looking to save a buck—nor should it be, necessarily—but on Monday nights, their corkage fee is only $10 per bottle (it’s normally $50). Time to start hunting for a red that’ll complement both your lamb T-bones and the sticky toffee pudding. Get access to exclusive reservations at this spot with Chase Sapphire Reserve. New cardmembers get $300 in annual dining statement credits." - molly fitzpatrick, bryan kim, willa moore, will hartman, sonal shah
