Bobby Van's 135 West 50th Street, Manhattan, New York 10020

"Let’s face it, Bobby Van’s is an expensive restaurant for most people. Our food was good, but it was not great. I had a filet and for $60, I expect it to be perfect. For me, there was too much connective tissue and just a bit too much fat. My husband’s sirloin was good, but again, not great. The service was good, but I felt our waiter was a bit condescending and I did not feel welcome. Perhaps this is because we were not locals. In the positive side, the cauliflower mash was delightful and the poached pear we had for dessert was exquisite! I would probably not choose to dine here again but try another fine dining experience instead."

"Wasn't supposed to go to this location, but instead, the one on 45th St. Nevertheless, because my reservation was at 9 pm and they closed at 10 pm, I sat down to eat. The restaurant was very quiet, only 5 other tables seated in the restaurant. Our server Marco G was very nice and pretty attentive. I generally won't visit a chain steakhouse in the city because there are just so many other options, but I needed something close and convenient. We ordered thick cut bacon, french onion soup, crab cocktail, lobster cocktail, meatballs, and chef bacon cheeseburger. The french onion soup had no taste/flavor. I didn't even know it had onions in it other than seeing them in the crock. The bacon was great but comes with a basalmic glaze that isn't noted on the menu. Crab cocktail was ok, nothing to really write home about. However, it was better than than the lobster cocktail. The lobster was tasteless and almost seemed that it had been sitting in water, it was overcooked. The server didn't bring a shell bowl until asked to do so. The meatballs were tasteless as well. We only ate 1.5 out of the skillet. Lastly, the burger, I paid more for the chef burger because I wanted the aged Vermont cheddar, but the cheese seemed to be one step up from a kraft single. I asked for the bacon to be well done. There was a half a slice of bacon on the burger, leaving half of the burger with no bacon. To take the cake, the burger was well done when I ordered it medium. It was dry, and I mustarded through to just a little less than half of it. When Marco asked if I wanted it boxed I explained to him that it was well done. He went over to his manager. However, when the check came, the burger was still listed. This wouldn't have been a big deal if I wasn't paying for soup that I only ate 4 /5 sips of meatballs that we only ate 1.5 of and then the burger. I am extremely disappointed if the kitchen is tired and feeling overworked than get new kitchen staff or close the restaurant. I could have honestly had a better meal at Chipotle or McDonald's. I won't be back... very disappointed on how the management handled this tonight."

"Delicious food! The men's restroom has a picture of a bull semen extraction on the wall though, which is truly bizarre! Never seen anything like it before, I wish I was joking about this."

"Excellent selection from appetizers, sushi, pasta, seafood and steaks in a great location close to Radio City Music Hall and Times Square."

"Had dinner with a large group of colleagues here. We had a three course meal. From the starter of salad or fried calamari to entrees of filet mignon or ribeye, to dessert of tiramisu or cheesecake, every dish was cooked to perfection. Every turn to look at the plates, they were empty. The service was attentive and quick. We had a great evening dining here and will definitely come back."
