"Known for its upscale offerings, The Grill offers a secret roast beef sandwich crafted by co-founder and co-chef Rick Torrisi. The sandwich features seven ounces of prime rib, caramelized onions, beefsteak tomato, fresh horseradish, and in-house made steak sauce on a sesame roll." - Shivani Vora
"Major Food Group's Midtown spot offering a theatrical dining experience with dishes like Dover sole served in various styles and mid-century inspired options." - Shivani Vora
"Major Food Group’s elegant chophouse remains one of the city’s most posh places to eat beef, due in no small part to the landmark room by architects Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and Philip Johnson. On a larger menu studded with caviar, gumbo, and Dover sole, the Grill offers a variety of steakhouse staples at premium prices. Expect Montauk oysters, littleneck clams, an excellent crab cake, big New York strips, bigger porterhouses, and a variety of sides like dressed tomatoes, cottage fries, and whipped potatoes." - Eater Staff
"The Show: Pasta A La Presse A splashy, special occasion meal at The Grill is basically just tableside performance after tableside performance. There's an avocado crab louis salad tossed before you, a prime rib trolley circling the dining room, and a baked Alaska that they'll light on fire at least twice. But you should not leave this Midtown East martini lunch institution without coming face-to-face with La Presse, a medieval-looking contraption dating back to 1901. The same server is always in charge, cranking the juice out of a handful of bones with the confidence of someone who does this 40 to 60 times a night. The kitchen then turns those dark, meaty juices into a velvety pasta sauce, for a final product that is downright luxurious." - willa moore, molly fitzpatrick, sonal shah, will hartman
"Major Food Group’s takeover of the landmark Four Seasons space remains a citywide destination for expensive a la carte fine dining — all in the form of a throwback chophouse. In the stunning midcentury room, designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and Philip Johnson, patrons gather for Dover sole, red meat, and martinis, with the same level of glitz and theatrics as the team’s Carbone." - Eater Staff
