Wow!!!! My boyfriend planned a date night here and wow was it fantastic. Chill vibe, classy but laid back environment. We both had the bone in rib steak which was phenomenal. Neither of us could finish our steaks and we aren’t light weights. The drinks were great and service was exceptional. I had a Baileys coffee at the end of the meal and it was fantastic. The sides were amazing also we had mashed potato and creamed spinach. Left overs the next day were also five star.

My friend Dennis is the sweetest person in the world. He give great customer service and is very comedic. Let’s not forget that he’s an awesome bartender and easy on the eyes ! If you sit at the bar ask for Dennis tell him Megan sent you!!

Very nice spacious steakhouse with excellent quality steaks and friendly staff. Enjoyed it much more than Smith & Wollensky. The food was incredibly tasty, the steaks were huge and full of flavor. Unlike many places in New York it will be cooked exactly as you like. Our group had fillet mignon and sirloin and both were great. The sides of veg and potatoes were wonderful and not too rich. The pepper sauce was also great. It’s a very nice spot if you want some great steak in the city. Also great for special occasions and catch ups (it’s nice and quiet but has a good atmosphere).

Steak crust was a little to charred. Mashed potatoes were great, so was the spinach.

I went to Bobby Vans with a work colleague who goes there everyone he visits NY. I really enjoyed it. The staff were amazing so polite funny and were very attentive. We had a ceasar salad to start, which I demolished. For the main, we had the ribeye on the bone with that amazing sauce. The meat was cooked perfectly and the wine they recommended went really well. Thorough enjoyed, it took me about 20 blocks to walk it off!!!!

First time I’ve visited Bobby Van’s and I was very pleased. The staff was excellent, perfect level of attention to the table. There when you needed them but not in the way when you didn’t. They were helpful with suggestions for some of our party who needed guidance.

It is a little pricey if that is a concern, but I have been there a few times. I have now had beef, pork and chicken from this establishment. All have been cooked exactly as requested. The servers and concierge are very tentative even though I dine alone. Most establishments over look an individual…not here. It is definitely a must try place, and the cartoons of all the famous ppl that have been there are fun to look at.
