Decent. We came here to celebrate my sister in law's 30th birthday and while a steakhouse would not be someplace I would typically go, this place had good service and pretty good food. My husband and I had the scallops which were yummy, the tomato and mozzarella and crab cocktail. I enjoyed that they had soft pretzel sticks in the bread basket! Old school naked and half naked photos of women are covering the walls and in the bathroom for no reason…perhaps the name Strip House has a double meaning lol? Over all an OK time and I wouldn't mind coming back if I was invited again.
I've dined here several times now and I have to say I enjoy the more "casual" aspects of the dining experience but could do with a little better service to match it's Strip House name. We've been seated on the high tops, at the bar, near the bar… the story is always the same: Cramped space. Just enough table room. Cold by the door (in cold weather, steer CLEAR of sitting near the door, that velvet sheet is NOT enough to protect you!). Close enough to servers to hear the ins and outs of service.
Let me explain what I mean by the last comment… when I sit at a table and can literally eavesdrop all night on the restaurant innerworkings and waiters saying things like "Table XX said they didn't ask for bottled water so comp it. Table YY needs more bread. Table ZZ wants more butter" that probably means that the waiters should keep their voices down or at least make the innerworkings of the operation a tad more quiet. I also didn't appreciate on my last visit when I was seated near the TV and a waiter who was on duty kept staring at the Knicks game and fist pumping discreetly as I tried to get his attention for a refill on water. Maybe I'm wrong but I feel if I'm spending over $100+pp on a meal, I should expect better service… am I wrong?
Anyway – food wise, the food is great. I particularly recommend sharing the Porterhouse for 2 and getting it with sides of mushroom and creamed spinach. Absolutely out of this world. The food is absolutely worth the price and I honestly prefer this more casual dining experience to upstairs. Drinks are also great. The bartenders know their stuff. Recommend it!
Not a bar and grill for everyday indulgence (on my budget, anyway), the Strip House Grill is everything that's great about the Strip House upstairs with a TV and without tablecloths. I actually think I like the space better downstairs.
The can't miss staples of the main menu – tomato & onion salad, mac & cheese, and my personal favorite, the creamed corn w/ pancetta (seriously, it's THAT good) find new friends with the burger menu – bacon cheddar burger was awesome, as expected, but the short rib burger, without cheese, was every bit as flavorful as the bacon cheeseburger without the toppings; definitely worth $18 as they come with fries and are served with L/T/O, pickle slices and a banana pepper. Next time I need to try the Strip Steak Salad…
All that with coffee was $80; tack on a $60 bottle of red and we've got ourselves a meal! (Note to the reviewers who panned the Grill for the prices, try reading the menu before you go and look at the prices some time before the check comes; if $80 before drinks is too much for dinner, maybe it's just not your scene.)
