What about Spark's?

I'm no NYC steak expert but I like Luger's. I think it's especially good with a nice group of friends because it just seems more ideal that way. For a date or more intimate meal, I like Spark's.

IMO, of course. Enjoy you lucky bastard! [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

I have only been to the first two. In my opinion, Luger is the only way to go, although Wolfgang's is nearly the exact same thing -- maybe a bit cheaper. The ambience at Luger is better (as well as the Schlag, omg the Schlag). Other than that, nearly all the sides at each (fries, spinach) are the same, if I remember correctly.

It is a [censored] pain to get to Peter Luger though.

So you thought the steak at Wolfgang's was pretty much as good as Luger?

A notch below Luger, maybe. But very close, in my opinion.

Haven't had the filet mignon at either place.

They don't have filet at Luger -- just porterhouse.

Hmm, yeah this is true, for some reason I thought they did.

Oh yeah, and the PL sauce is tops.

I'm prob going to either MJ or Wolfgang's this week. Couldn't get a good res at Luger. I'll prob have the porterhouse wherever I go for comparison's sake.

Have you ever been down to Atlanta, El D?

Somewhat off-topic, but I could recommend a few really good steak houses down there.

Prob not in same league as NYC though. Just a guess.

I like Chops, Bones, and Highland Tap in Atlanta.
