Peter Luger

Editorial Review

Defining macho since 1887. Simply put, this is where you eat steak in NYC. Gaggles of stockbrokers willingly leaving Manhattan. Luger burger an underrated joy for lunch. Woody, clubby digs with a long bar. Old school no-nonsense waiters deliver on all promises: steaks are juicy, perfectly charred, well-seasoned, wholly delectable, and expensive. The Secret: they grill on ovens that go back further than the city itself. After such a hearty meal, you'll need a good walk, so hang a left out the door and cross the nearby Williamsburg Bridge on foot. Toast a perfect evening with tumblers of Scotch at some Lower East Side lounge.
