    I love a quality steakhouse that can do it all! @bltrestaurants on the UES is known for their high quality meat, but they also happen to have one of the best lobster Cobb salads & crab cakes. The filet was great - as were the sides of creamed spinach and baked potato. And if you go sometime soon, you have to get their special sticky date cake which was unreal. A perfect spot for anyone who loves a classy, chic dinner on the UES!

    We had ordered medium rate steak and they were average at best. For the price, they were just not good enough. The other dishes were kind of ok but nothing great

    The place is dark and it’s expensive but the food is amazing. The popovers are a good reason to go alone. The staff is nice and helpful.

    Ottima bistecca, come sempre. Cottura perfetta e presentazione con salse adeguate. Contorni e dessert pure di buon livello. Prezzi abbastanza elevati, comunque in linea con quelli dei locali analoghi della città.

    This was our 1st time going to BLT Prime. Overall, it was fine- for the cost of the meal, I would have expected better service and overall dining experience. Food was good- not special, but solid. Our table was on the 2nd floor- I would likely have requested a booth on the 1st floor as that seemed like the better seating option. The bar looked lovely- and I could see stopping in for a drink.
