"There are a lot of places on this list where important people go to eat red meat and talk insider trading, probably. But Delmonico’s makes us normals feel like power players too. Since its debut in the early 1800s, this FiDi restaurant has been through some changes of concept and location, but the historic dining room still exudes old-world glamor with a few kitschy newer touches. Get the signature Delmonico steak, a juicy, top-shelf 18oz rib eye that remains one of the more flavorful cuts around town. This place works for a client meeting, special occasion date, or impressing out-of-town relatives." - neha talreja, kenny yang, carina finn koeppicus, bryan kim, willa moore
"A New York steakhouse claiming to have originated the strip steak in the 19th century." - Brittany Britto Garley
"Delmonico’s started life as a confectioner’s, and it’s been through many changes, and many locations, over the two centuries since then. Along the way, it’s set trends—like bringing a la carte dining to the city—and burned down multiple times. In its latest incarnation, it's steakhouse with classic chops and seafood, but also ingredients like kosho butter and yuzu vinaigrette. With murals and velvet banquettes, it's a little kitsch, but the food is as good as ever. Delmonico steak, baked alaska, eggs benedict, lobster Newberg Charles Dickens, Mark Twain, at least 11 U.S. presidents" - bryan kim, molly fitzpatrick, willa moore, will hartman, sonal shah
"Get a bunch of Monopoly men together downtown, and you’re going to need a steakhouse to put them in. Make it Delmonico’s. New York’s oldest restaurant (depending on who you ask) has hosted everyone from Lincoln to Elvis, though these days it’s less celebrity hotspot and more a meeting ground for bankers and tourists. In its latest incarnation, the Beaver Street institution features servers in tuxedo vests, phone camera-friendly lighting, and ingredients like kosho butter. It’s a little kitschy, but the food is good. Chilled jumbo prawns, wedge salad, Delmonico ribeye, baked alaska" - molly fitzpatrick, willa moore, will hartman, bryan kim, sonal shah
"A legendary fine dining restaurant in New York City, known for its historical ties to the naming of the New York Strip steak." - Courtney E. Smith
