Empire Steak House

We had a delightful meal here, so much so that we came back a second night. Our server, Lira, was excellent and quite personable. We will make a point of coming here when we return to NYC. Over two nights, we had grilled octopus, the filet, and then Branzino. All were excellent. I highly recommend it!

Went during restaurant week after walking by admiring this place for years. Place was oddly empty but service was good - kudos to your friendly team. The sirloin steak was very good, as was the calamari - yum! Now, let’s talk about the breading on that day old chicken parm. I know chicken - it was from yesterday, at best. Also, the cheesecake crust was inedible (chewy like a gummy bear, rubbery texture). What was that? Since we don’t like to be difficult and did eat most of it without involving the manager, you’re getting two stars. You have a dream location and set-up, please do better.

My family and I came to Empire Steak House to celebrate my mother's birthday and we all had an awesome time. The staff (especially, Eddie/Eddy- as he told us to call him). He was so attentive to our party of 6, as well as the Manager- he came to our table a few times just to make sure that we're okay 🥰 Excellent service from the moment we walked in to our departure. Now, the food was excellent 👌🏾my Eggplant Parmigiano was SoooOo good as a starter, the steak was cooked well..and seasoned 😁💕 garlic butter broccoli was so good. I had an Old fashioned cocktail, it was strong, which I liked 👍🏾 Overall, great experience...and it was NYC Restaurant Week‼️ Alot of food for $59, 3 courses! Love it!

we had an unforgettable dinner in the empire steak house. the manager, ardijan is one of the most down-to-earth and nicest people I've met lately. the chefs did an amazing job. we ate a japanese a5 wagyu and the emperor steak with which ardijan offered us a fine wine which didn’t disappoint us in any way. the side dishes were very successful and I can recommend the creme brulee to everyone! the ambience was extremely pleasant and not too loud as not to be able to talk to each other. if there were more stars to be awarded, Ardijan and his restaurant would have deserved them. teşekkürler kardeşim!
