The combination of a traditional American grill combined with the classic elements of a first-rate steak house best describes Bobby Van’s fourth New York City location. Run by the same four partners who have been awarded Tom Horan’s American Top Ten Steakhouses in each of the past three years, the Grill caters to those seeking the legendary Bobby Van’s Porterhouse as well as lighter dishes such as pastas, salads and fish. All served with the renowned service that has been Bobby Van’s hallmark from its beginnings in 1969. As partner Joseph Hickey said “We’re all about pure, unadulterated customer happiness."

One of the best French onion soup, maryland crab cake was huge and delicious, bang bang shrimp was good. Dinner was sesame encrusted tuna which was good. Gnocchi was excellent, daughters shared chicken parm and they like it. Service was pretty quick and very pleasant. Definitely would eat there again.

2 ladies with a reservation stuck right in the middle of a pathway. On way to theatre, I can afford the meal and the drinks and desserts and coffee. And a good tip. Don’t put me in the walkway. Do better.
