Pros: Tender, flavorful steaks, not too expensive Cons: The other items add up quickly
Went with a large family outing, one cousin had been to a convention in Lost Wages, there he was treated. I don't think he saw the prices, they are high, but fair. Ordered the NY strip, oops, this was not a $30 steak, tasted my wife's ribeye. Can ...

Pros: flavorful meat, stands on it's own. Cons: Bring money.
Wow ! Best piece o' beef I ever had. This place specializes in beef, and frankly they know what's going on with it. I had the opportunity to visit the S & W in downtown Chicago recently, and between the manly ambiance, the manly menu, and the manly ...

Pros: reputation Cons: waiters, steak
Like many out-of-town businessmen I had heard about the great reputation of this steakhouse. Unfortunately, that "great" reputation was not evident when I ate there.
The service was uninspired and the food even less inspiring. The waiter seemed...

Pros: Sizeable, well seasoned steaks Cons: Extremely slow service, overcooked
Having lived in Manhattan for over two years now, I have had the pleasure of dining in some of the premier steakhouses in NYC. I approached Smith & Woolensky with eagerness.
Alas, I was sorely disappointed.
It took twenty minutes...

Pros: none Cons: bugs, cling wrap, slow, rude
I have to say dining at Smith and Wollensky's definately ranks as one of my all time worst dining experiences. First, we made 9 pm reservations and had to wait 20 minutes to be seated. Then my boyfriend found a BEETLE floating in his water. The...

Pros: Food fit for a hero. Cons: A little too simple on the decor.
The sloppily romantic heart of New York City still thrums strongly along, defying tragedy. Mayor Giuliani urges a "return to normalcy"like a holy talisman against evil. I agree. It would be a dishonor to the injured, dead and missing to be cowed by...

Pros: Maybe the steak Cons: The rest of the food
OK, maybe I shouldn't go to steak restaurants if I don't eat steak. But sometimes one doesn't have a choice, like on business lunches. So I went, and ordered swordfish.
Overcooked and overpriced. Sword is not that hard to cook, but it...

Pros: Simple, straightforward approach to a great dining experience. Cons: Could have purchased and cooked a better cut of meat myself.
You may have heard of the phrase "All that and a bag o' chips!" While Smith & Wollensky's may be all that it is definitely missing the "bag o' chips." Now, this is not a shoddy establishment by any stretch of the imagination.
It was a cold...

Pros: Great steaks and lobster, great service, great wine selection Cons: None
On my first trip to Las Vegas, my friend made a reservation at Smith & Wollensky. We were seated by two very courteous managers. Soon after, another manager came by to help us select a wine. We were waited on by two waiters who were both personable...

Pros: Large, tasty steaks Cons: Over priced
I felt as if I had stepped onto the set of Sex & the City when I walked into Smith & Wollensky. It was a cold December evening and the restaurant was packed with a loud, glitzy crowd. I half expected Carrie and Samantha to be seated...

Pros: Ambience, minimalist decor, fun, good wine list. Cons: Poor service and OK food.
I was really looking forward to going to this place. Face it, the New York Smith & Wollensky is famous; now Smith & Wollensky is expanding with restaurants in several major cities - which says the place has got to be good, right? Just given...

I went here for dinner and found it fairly easy to make a reservation. I called the night before around 10:30 and had a table for 6pm the next night. I was very...

Pros: Asparagus and Waiters Cons: Meat
I went to Smith & Wollensky for the first time recently with my husband and his entire family (well, almost). We had a table of ten people. First off, the restaurant was very noisy - it was hard to carry on a conversation except with the person...

Pros: Excellent service staff Cons: Serious overcrowding
I went to S&W for the second time recently in NYC. I never judge a steakhouse by just one visit, but two visits can usually tell the story. The place was overcrowded both times, with chairback to chairback seating. I barely had room to move during...

Pros: Prime A-1 Beef Cons: None
One of the best well kept secrets about this steakhouse is the steak that is not on the menu. I highly suggest the Colorado rib steak. Ordered medium , it is probably the finest steak that this establishment has to offer. There is more then enough meat...
