They deserve zero stars, instead a black hole, as this was the worst experience I have had at a steakhouse let alone a restaurant anywhere in the world. The menu was limited, the steak offered was only porterhouse and... (more)

On my recent trip to New York I made a special trip over to Brooklyn to visit Peter Luger. Arriving right on time for my 10:45 reservation the door was locked. The bus boy wouldn't even let us in to talk to the manager about... (more)

We made a reservation 4 weeks in advance, it took 45-1 hour to get a table. The matrede Alex was extremely rude, obnoxious, unapologetic, mean.....definitely not a good start to a nice evening in a well knowns place.... (more)

This place is sooo brutally overrated! The food is just average, the menu is very limited. Their service doesn't leave you feel like a valued customer to say the least....Dinner for 4 cost us about $700 (cash only).... (more)

Waiters grab raw bacon with their bare hands and continue to work without washing their hands. Steaks fall on the floor and get thrown back on he grill. Burgers are kept unrefrigerated throughout lunch hours. 12 to 4.... (more)

You won't forget this place and the size of the steaks you get. You WILL have to share, trust me. We drove way out of our way to experience Peter Lugers and it is one of my best memories of our NY trip. I believe the waiters... (more)

I have been to this place for four times because it is so famous and outside visitors always want to go there. I don't know why but men just love this place...My husband love it too. To me it is not a special place at all.... (more)

Following the guidelines of previous reviews, we ordered the creamed spinach, grilled bacons, and the porterhouse steak for two. The bacons were amazing; like a ham steak. One is enough per person, unless you?re... (more)

I'm not huge on steak (I'm one of those that orders their steaks well-done) and I don't normally eat out at restaurants where entrees are more than 20-something bucks. I've been to Peter Lugers 3 times. The first was... (more)

The ONLY reason I am giving this place 4 stars instead of 5 is for the decor. I was totally skeptical because everyone always raves about how good the steak is. I went with someone who is an expert and he ordered for the... (more)

I'm new so I don't know how was back in the day, maybe this was a good place, but today is pricey without justification, Waiters are rude and food is less than average. So sad restaurant owners pass commentaries as... (more)

HANDS DOWN, THE BEST DINNER I HAVE EVER HAD! No joke. I was amazed by this place. I read all the reviews on here before I left and I was expecting rude waiters and shabby atmosphere. I was also a little weary of the prices... (more)

Okay, P.L. needs another rave review like I need another chin but DAMN! Simply the best steak I have ever eaten. Don't call yourself a carnivore unless you have sampled the meat at P.L. Side dishes, side mishes,... (more)

We went to PL's for lunch on short notice. The staff was great at taking our reservation and adjusting it with 2 days notice. We sat by the Window and our waiter, John was excellent at guiding us through the menu and... (more)

I just called for a reservation and, after having been hung up on twice and treated rudely by what sounded like a novice service-boy, finally a patronizing old guy took my reservation. I'm calling to cancel.... (more)

I went here about a couple of years ago and the food was not bad. Although, I don't think it is the best steak in NY. I think people go here for the name and it is almost a landmark being that it has been open for over a hundred... (more)

Went here with my girlfriend and her family on a Sunday and received the notorious brusque service. I can't say that it was unexpected given the reputation that precedes Luger's, but it was still disappointing.... (more)

It was one of the best steak experiences I have ever had! If you go you must order the Porterhouse for two(which can easily serve 3). It comes out on a sizzling plate which you can actually use to sear your meat if it comes... (more)
