Angelo and Maxie's Steakhouse

Pros: Great food, huge portions, reasonable prices.
Cons: Noisy atmosphere.

Angelo and Maxie's is my favorite New York steakhouse for two reasons:

2. For a New York steakhouse serving absurdly large portions, the prices are very reasonable.

Our visit to Angelo and Maxie's Steakhouse was over all quite good. We went on a Saturday night - you'd think on a Saturday night during the summer it would be quiet - wrong. The place was packed. All of the tables are close together but everyone...

Cons: Portions sometimes too large to leave room for dessert

We tried out the new Angelo & Maxie's steak house in Reston Town Center with friends who specialize in steak houses and had a delightful evening. A return trip confirmed that the food and service is wonderful. Between us we had the T-bone, the New York...
