Objects d'art, wall hangings, period antiques and ancient Russian books accentuate the restaurant's unique character and personality. To dine here is to dine like a Tsar.

Gallagher's Steakhouse (228 West 52nd Street between Broadway & 8th Avenue)

America's first steak house, Gallagher's opened in 1927 and was the creation of Helen Gallagher, a former Ziegfeld Follies dancer. The aura of that unforgettable era is still alive at Gallagher's with the grand circular bar, the planked flooring, the red-and-white checkered tablecloths, the burnished-wood paneling, the nostalgic portraits of sporting legends, and - most of all - the hickory charcoal-grilled steaks. This one-of-a-kind steak house for people who demand the real thing is a favorite among out-of-towners as well as native New Yorkers, not to mention celebrities. Together, they not only like the warm, no-nonsense atmosphere of Gallagher's, they appreciate all that it takes to be the benchmark for all steak houses from noon to midnight every day of the year.
