Hawksmoor, an upscale British steakhouse in Gramercy, pairs beautifully grilled, locally sourced meats with decadent desserts in an opulent, high-ceilinged space.
"This London-based chain became one of the city’s better steakhouses when it opened in 2021. Note that Hawksmoor is one of the few city venues to grill its dry-aged steaks over charcoals. One can easily order expensive rib-eyes, filets, and strips, but the restaurant also offers a fine rump cut at just $40. Desserts, including pavlova or the peanut butter Louis, can merit a trip in their own right. Don’t miss lunch or the bar menu." - Eater Staff
"Christmas Eve will be a la carte lunch through early dinner from noon to 6 p.m. with new holiday dishes like lobster mac n’ cheese and rum bread and butter pudding. In addition, for cocktails, Hawksmoor has teamed up with four of the bars they love the most from around the world (Dead Rabbit in NYC; Three Sheets in London; Schofield’s in Manchester; and Nauticus in Edinburgh) to contribute their favorite cocktail for the party season. The drinks are each $20, and available through the end of the month. The restaurant is closed Christmas." - Eater Staff
"Hawksmoor, a British import located in Gramercy, offers the Notorious BEEF burger available after 5 p.m. The burger features two dry-aged beef patties, Velveeta, lettuce, onions, pickles, and special sauce. Patrons can also enjoy beef fat fries and Shaky Pete’s Ginger Brew for a premium experience." - Robert Sietsema
"Hawksmoor in Gramercy provides a $30 steak frites during weekday lunches from Wednesday to Saturday, featuring a 10-ounce dry-aged rump steak with beef-fat fries." - Melissa McCart
"This steakhouse has been a London institution for long enough (with enough locations) to have lost some of its intrigue on the other side of the Atlantic, but we say keep the sticky toffee pudding coming. The steaks at this big, sleek Gramercy spot are unique in that they’re grilled over charcoal. They do their best work with the filet mignon, and the rump steak is another reliable option if you don't want to spend too much. Choose a steak to share with one other person, then find whatever sounds the most like it came out of Downton Abbey, and order that too." - neha talreja, kenny yang, carina finn koeppicus, bryan kim, willa moore
