Birthday & Celebration Central
Luxury Dining Elite
A Midtown power-steak option built for big tables, big cuts, and classic steakhouse sides, with a prime focus on porterhouse-style dining. It’s at its best when you order to share, keep the sides traditional, and treat it as a dependable, high-traffic steakhouse stop rather than a subtle night out.
Must-Try Dishes:
Porterhouse for Two, Sizzling Bacon, Creamed Spinach
What Makes it Special: A classic Midtown steakhouse built around shareable porterhouse service.

A new, ultra-opulent all-you-can-eat seafood experience built around made-to-order rounds of raw bar staples, shellfish, and rich hot plates.

Must-Try Dishes:
King crab legs, Scallops, Lobster mac & cheese
What Makes it Special: A made-to-order premium seafood AYCE in a dramatic, luxe room.
