Benjamin Steakhouse

Benjamin Steakhouse is a classic steakhouse in New York that serves porterhouse and filet mignon. The porterhouse is large enough for two people to share, and it is ordered with mashed potatoes and spinach. Reservations are not difficult to get, but booking ahead is better, and photos of past visitors hang at the entrance while the basement restroom is clean. The medium rare can be more cooked than at other steakhouses, and the meat can be cold and dry.
