Wollensky Grill: Reviews & Ratings
I'm surprised Wollensky Grill doesn't have a higher rating. I stopped in on a weekend for a solo lunch and it truly hit the spot. I got the classic caesar salad, prime wollensky burger with cheddar, and took a slice of cheesecake to go. The caesar is actually what inspired me to write this review. It was so crisp and well dressed, I am addicted and will absolutely be coming back just for this. This might be my new favorite caesar salad in the city. I'm constantly on the hunt for good burgers in the city and this burger was an absolute hit. I ordered it medium and it was perfect. The pickles were on the sweeter side but still good. They also offered both red and white onion slices which was awesome, I loved having the option to choose. The waffle fries were super crispy and fresh. I have no notes! As for the cheesecake-- it was exactly what I expected in a cheesecake and a perfect treat. Service was super attentive the entire time. Everyone was friendly and quick! Again, no notes! I will definitely be coming back the next time I get a craving for a steakhouse burger!
The Grill may be the little brother to Smith & Wollensky but it carves out its own identity. Bartenders pour out great cocktails and there's always tons of energy in the room.
Last minute stop while traveling. Nice casual from the parent restaurant. Burger was good, not great. Wedge salad was good, not great. Cocktails and bar service were worth the visit!
Top notch from start to finish. We arrived on a semi busy Sunday afternoon about an hour before our reservation. They seemed to have no problem taking us early, a plus! Both of us thought the place had a cool old fashioned vibe to it. Service was excellent, not hurried. I started with the clam chowder. Delicious and chock full of clams but not as creamy as I would've liked. Then came my bone-in filet mignon. Grilled to perfection, I hardly needed a knife! My wife ordered the English cut prime rib,rare. It was still pink when she got it. She loved it!! We respectively ended with a cheesecake and a carrot cake...both delectable and enormous!! Well worth the price!!!
