“Some parts of both of our steaks were truly inedible. Impossibly chewy. I have never had to pull an unchewable part of a steak out of my mouth at a steakhouse.”
H3
“Side note we got the porterhouse which was cooked perfectly, the wine was good and the dining room was gorgeous. Not a place to go looking for value as our bill was around $350 for splitting a steak and some sides but all around very good.”
H3
“It's a very good restaurant in the flavor range it offers.”

“I’ve been really impressed with Hawksmoor. You won’t get the “classic” vibe, but you will get a great steakhouse.”
H3
“Come here for lunch every time I visit NY and it’s always been excellent. Massive fan of the rump steak done rare.”
H3
“$170 steak wasn't cooked properly, service was spotty (credit where due, the side dishes and cocktails were good)”
H3
“found it very average in terms of food and poor in terms of value. The Cesar salad was a loveless and chaotic arrangement of massive leaves of romaine with some sad dressing. The bone marrow was served almost cold and was unimaginative. The ribeye was average.”
H3
“I went to Hawksmoor a couple of days ago and was completely unimpressed with the meat. I got a stringy, underseasoned ribeye that was not cooked to my specification (asked for medium, got rare/medium rare.) I’d sooner send someone to literally any of the other options.”
H3
“The rump is fine. Similar to strip but only slightly chewier and less fatty. Unlike most places they do dry-age the rump offered in the lunch special as well, so it is a good way to try their steak while staying within a budget.”

“The burger at hawksmoor is incredible, like the ultimate Big Mac, they mix bone marrow into the ground beef”
H3
“I've been here several times, always a great experience.”
H3
“Hawksmoor is also extremely disappointing. Expensive, the sides are incredibly small, and it’s so loud in there you can’t even talk.”
H3
“The Sunday roast was a very nice presentation but it was beyond dry. Potatoes were undercooked, vegetables in giant chunks.”
H3
“I love the Shaky Pete's ginger brew at Hawksmoor for an alcoholic beverage - it's a frozen slushie of gin, lemon, spicy homemade ginger syrup and a pale ale topper”
H3
“one of the finest dry aged ribeyes I have ever had. They have one of the only charcoal indoor grills in the city and the taste cannot be replicated. Finished with sprinkle of Malden sea salt. It is perfection.”
H3
“I had the strip steak and it was tough and chewy despite being medium rare. My wife got the filet and it was very good, but nothing I haven’t had an an upscale steakhouse before.”
H3
“it was one of the worst steakhouses I’ve been to in NYC, if not, the worst. Steaks were ice cold, the sides outside of the scallops were all very meh with the cream spinach being inedible.”
H3
“Went there and they were out of the *first three* cuts of meat we asked for. Then what we got was barely warm. The sides were excellent though, lol”
H3
“Hawksmoor is consistently excellent. Their bone-in rib chop in first class. The charcoal grill gives their steaks a terrific flavor profile.”
H3
“Spot felt weird and ribeye was thinner than I could get at a keyfood. Enjoyed the butt steak tho.”
H3
“I honestly think you skip the potted beef and bacon. I was super pumped about it beforehand as I love savory pastry things and beefy things and bacon and grease. However... it was all kind of cold and dry?”
H3
“Recently had shockingly delicious fried shrimp at the Hawksmoor, a steakhouse at E. 22nd and Park Ave. All of their seafood is excellent with oysters served three different ways and next level roasted scallops.”
H3
“Steak came out ice cold, sides were awful, and every conversation being had in the place echoes throughout the venue. Probably my least favorite meal in awhile.”
H3
“Steak in my opinion is excellent but would recommend the set lunch menu to be a bit cheaper.”
H3
“Ribeye and fillet are delicious, as is the porterhouse. Don’t sleep on the sauces either - I’m usually a “just let me taste the steak” but a little peppercorn sauce hit the spot. Cocktails and wine list were fantastic too.”
H3
“The service at Hawksmor was so slow they comped us a dessert and sauces and the steaks came out warm and not hot. For how expensive everything was, I won't go there again unless someone's covering the tab.”
H3
“Thought the steak was delicious and perfectly cooked. Service was on point too.”
H3
“I had an amazing experience. Our server recommended two desserts for us to choose from. We chose one, but he came back and gave us both—one was free, just because he wanted us to experience both!”
H3
“I enjoyed Sunday Roast, I think it is a great way to try Hawksmoor without breaking the bank. Sunday Roast is $46. It wasn't as good as I have had in London. They asked did we want our roast pink or well done and mine was RARE and the popover was the worst one I have ever had.”
H3
“The meat itself was a bit tough and it didn’t have the comfort food nature of the dish nailed. Everything except the Yorkshire pudding was just off.”
H3
“Having actually been all over the UK and having had roasts in traditional pubs I've got to say this was not it. I agree the gravy was watery, the pudding was dry and the size was kind of grotesque.”
H3
“Hard disagree. Hawksmoor is awesome. Just went yesterday in fact. Scallop appetizer is a must.”
H3
“Hawksmoor has really good-quality beef without any dripping-butter gimmicks. Just charcoal-grilled beef with a nice crust. But if that's not what you want, the burger there is incredible, as is the beer selection and the sides and desserts.”
H3
“none of it blew me away. It was all very bland and unseasoned.”
H3
“it was good, not great. Overpriced for what you get.”
H3
“Hawksmoor has stuffy clientele and their best cuts are sharing cuts by the ounce, but shoutout to the bone marrow gravy.”

“My first time having Beef Wellington and I can honestly say it was delicious BUT next time will definitely be trying the steak instead. It was great don’t get me wrong, but there’s something about a good steak on a Friday night that’ you can’t beat. Definitely going back.”

“seconding Hawksmoor for steak, also great martini”
H2
“And Hawksmoor has better sticky toffee pudding. If you want another steakhouse go there and do the pudding.”
H2
“think hawksmoor has better steak.”
H2
“Hawksmoor would be a fun steakhouse environment that’s loud. Plus customer service is top notch.”
H2
“Had a great one at Hawksmoor a few months ago”
H2
“The carrots and the asparagus at Hawksmoor were delicious”
H2
“Hawksmoor has been excellent - amazing cocktails (especially their milk punches) and their food was great but expensive.”
H2
“Hawksmoor is without a doubt the best “i spent $300 here and can’t recall a single dish” steakhouse in NYC. GTFO of here if you’re suggesting it’s a viable “modern” alternative to a Keenes or Lugers.”
H2
“Steak - delmonicos or if you’re going uptown keens or Hawksmoor”
H2
“Yea I thought it was mid. Sad because it’s very pricey and the decor is sick. Also our Somme was super passive aggressive and the service overall was pretty poor.”
H2
“Food was fine, but I've had a lot of roasts and yorkshires and wasn't particularly impressed.”
H2
“and hawksmoor has been disappointing, I’ve been twice in London and it’s fantastic but the one in NYC just can’t replicate the magic for some reason.”
