Zagat's. has awarded Peter Luger's, which is in Brooklyn the award for best steak place in the U.S., for the last ten plus years. Travel channel also picked it as number one, in a show on best steak houses. It's in the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn.

It is that good. In Manhattan you can try Ben Benson's, Palm or the Old Homestead. Bring plenty of coins.

Description
Peter Luger has been named the best steakhouse in New York City by Zagat Survey for 24 years in a row.[5] The only payment options at the restaurant are cash, gift certificate, or the Peter Luger credit card.[5] The Brooklyn location is known for its long wooden bar, and the "dining rooms have a teutonic air, with exposed wooden beams, burnished oak wainscoting, brass chandeliers and weathered beer-hall tables." [6] The Brooklyn location now boasts a coveted Michelin star rating. In 2002, it was named to the James Beard Foundation's list of "America's Classics".

The menu is sparse, with the only entrees being porterhouse steak for 1 to 4, rib steak, lamb, and salmon. Their supplementary dishes are shrimp cocktail, beefsteak tomato and onion salad (served with steak sauce), German fries, creamed spinach, and pecan pie. [7][8] Steaks are served pre-sliced on an inclined plate so that the juices run down. Further, the edges of the plates are heated to approximately 400 degrees Fahrenheit, allowing diners to cook their steak further if they so choose. Peter Luger also serves hamburgers, which are only available for lunch.[9]
