A word from Quality Meats
Quality Meats is a contemporary restaurant that serves a rustic New American menu.…
The varied menu focuses on modern interpretations of classic dishes such as Traditional Steak Tartare, Caesar Salad and Roasted Bone Marrow, in addition to several cuts of beef from legendary New York butchers Milton Abeles and Strassburger Meats.
The restaurant's side dishes alone merit a trip with innovative house specialties, including Corn Crème Brulee, Gnocchi and Cheese and Edamame with Mint Salt. The Quality Meats chefs are Craig Koketsu (Lespinasse, Stars) as executive chef and Cory Colton (Lespinasse, St.Regis) on pastry. The restaurant has a warm industrial atmosphere, created by award-winning AvroKO and features intimate dining areas, a comfortable bar area with well-stocked charcuterie bar.Continued

Diner Reviews
  • "Best meat and unbelievable sides. I have eaten here every time I visit New York. never disappoints! Service is amazing as well."
    Dined on 3/2/2014
  • "Food was quite good, but the wine list was limited and expensive. Great steak in a non-stekhouse atmosphere."
    Dined on 3/3/2014
  • "I love this place for a special occasion - we go maybe once or twice a year. The filet mignon is always delicious, and the corn crème brulee and cheese gnocchi are just amazing sides. Honestly, we haven't had a bad meal here in all the years we have been going there for our birthday, or anniversary. It is very pricey, but for a special occasion it is great. It is very loud always, though, so you need to be prepared for that, since almost everyone there is celebrating some occasion!"

  • "I really liked the Vibe of Quality Meats, it is energetic and has a modern flare. The food was really excellent, but the menu is pretty limited, especially if you are not up for beef. Quite a pricey place, but worth it for an occasional splurge or a business dinner."

  • "amazing experience for the first time visitor of NYC and restaurant as well."

  • "Once elegant and to-die-for meals seems to have fallen prey to slipping standards."

  • "I've been to QM three times now. The food is excellent and the atmosphere vibrant. The service is impeccable. First time through, I had the hangar steak (had seen it on Food Network). It was good but tough. Second time, I had the ribeye and it was perfectly cooked (medium well). Last time, I tried the ribeye again and it was overcooked and tough. We were a party of 4 and everyone else loved everything else. They had the sea food bouquet and loved it (except the oysters were too salty - perhaps not rinsed well enough), the salmon and another ribeye (this one medium rare) and were all quite pleased. I don't believe there's any excuse for mis-cooked meat when you're paying $48 for the steak. High-end places simply have to get it right."

  • "great steak, great, unobtrusive service, great wine list"
    Dined on 2/26/2014
  • "Been here 4 times and every time my filet was absolutely perfect. .Our waiter David was off the charts with energy and professionalism-made our birthdays awesome. We were a party of 7 and no one was let down. My fave NYC place without the attitude. Thanks! XOXO"
    Dined on 2/22/2014
  • "We dined at Quality Meats with another couple while all of us were visiting NYC. The food was mouth watering! We all agree it was one of the best steaks we've had in a really long time. I would highly recommend Quality Meats if you're in the area."
    Dined on 2/22/2014
  • "Quality Meats isn't just about the "meat." It's also about wonderful, classic (chopped) salads, great sides and freshly prepared bread. Go there regularly for lunch. Always enjoy the experience."
    Dined on 2/25/2014
  • "Pretty place for guys or fun couples to gather. Bacon peanut butter and apple appetizer was amongst the best I've ever had"
    Dined on 2/24/2014
  • "my boyfriend and i have been going to this steak house for the last five years! its always is a treat! Food is always delcious. Freshly baked bread and the steak is always made to your liking. Its a social watering hole for those looking for a hip new young place, always packed in the evening and we can always have a great time."
    Dined on 2/21/2014
  • "I went to Quality Meats for my birthday. The prices are high but the food was above satisfactory. The ambience was great, music was not too loud and nose level from other tables did not create a yelling match. The wait staff was super friendly, courteous, professional, and helpful with menu selections."
    Dined on 2/23/2014
  • "I have entertained clients here a couple of times and have been impressed with the food and service. Make sure you do not get a two top table as those are extremely close to your neighbors and conversations are made public."
    Dined on 2/23/2014
  • "Great good, atmosphere and service! Will definitely come back!"
    Dined on 2/23/2014
  • "We were looking for a new steak house to frequent, something different from our regular places and Quality Meats was a great find. The food and wine were really good, even down to the awesome bread rolls to start. Quality Meats seems to be a traditional steak house with modern twists and it all worked very well for us. We will definitely be eating at Quality Meats again the next time we are in New York - you have to book ahead though, very popular and busy. Only minor criticism is that the cloakroom area is very cramped as it is right at the entrance opposite the reception desk - not too bad in Summer probably, but a tad chaotic on a cold and snowy February evening when everyone had big coats."
    Dined on 2/15/2014
  • "Food was great and the waiter was very informative. We had a perfect dinner with seafood appetizers and steak for the main course followed by a delectable ice cream cake desserts."
    Dined on 2/22/2014
  • "Great meal, memorable birthday. Oysters were the highlight of my meal. only negative is the tables are too close together."

  • "We love this place so much; they have it all right! Great food, good wine list, excellent service and perfect location in midtown."

  • "In town for work, went here with a coworker, and we were not disappointed, I had the aged rib steak, and it was way, way bigger than I though it would be (and I ate the whole thing). We also had the diver scallops, which were perfectly done. Service was great. The one thing I would say is that the noise level in this restaurant was off the charts. We were there on a weekday evening, and the place was absolutely hopping."

  • "Had a reservation, but showed up as health department doing surprise visit. They hooked me up with their sister restaurant Quality Italian and a free drink. I waited for a while and decided not to go back. Quality Italian was was solid."

  • "Had a great dinner with a friend before catching a show. The food at Quality Meats is always great (I have been several times and have never been disappointed!). Try the Gnocchi and Cheese as a side, so great! Would definitely go back there again!"
    Dined on 2/19/2014
  • "Definitely one of NY's top steak houses, if not #1. We all enjoyed various meats, from charcuterie through entrees and none disappointed. The portions were generous and the meat of absolutely top quality. Our server was very attentive, even to things like keeping water glasses full. Desserts were also fabulous! Loved the restrooms....worth a trip even if you don't need to use them. I want mine at home to be the same! Can't wait to go back. Pricey but not more than other NYC steak houses."

  • "coming in and 200 dollars for three,with just water...well,not an everyday event. Also,don't go with show tickets. It is a restaurant you should savor and love BUT THE FOOD????????????????????????????? AMAZING. MY wife got a rib steak that was like something from the flintstones... great stuff!!!!!!!!! My steak was a masterwork."
    Dined on 2/18/2014
  • "Excellent meal, excellent service. We had the porterhouse for 2, quality potatoes and creme brûlée corn along with a bottle of Cab. Everything was perfectly cooked and service was excellent."

  • "The food was excellent. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone who truly enjoys a terrific steak house."

  • "We had a fantastic time, my expectations were exceeded in every way. Can't wait to come back."
    Dined on 2/16/2014
  • "We went to Quality Meats to celebrate a big birthday and were very pleased that we did. Their rib eye looked like it belonged to Fred Flintstone and was absolutely delicious. I was a little disappointed in the creamed spinach in a popover. The spinach made the popover soggy but the spinach was great. Next time we'll try the corn creme brulee which we understand is outstanding."
    Dined on 2/15/2014
  • "Everything was GREAT !!!!! You are doing yourself an injustice if you don't try this place. The corn creme brûlée is to die for."
    Dined on 2/15/2014
  • "The food was only fair and inconsistent--two of us ordered the same steak and each looked different in terms of size and trim. The portions were not enormous given the prices. The service was good tableside, not so much with the hostesses and bartender."
    Dined on 2/16/2014
  • "Food was amazing & excellent service!.. only issue I had was that we were seated in a secluded back room away from the great ambient of the restaurant."
    Dined on 2/15/2014
  • "My boyfriend and I went here for our Valentines dinner and we couldn't have picked a more perfect place. It was a little pricey but not over-the-top. They had a great selection to choose from, even for me, a non-steak eater. Very romantic but it was also recommended by my boss who has brought small groups there before. I would absolutely go back!"
    Dined on 2/14/2014
  • "this place used to be amazing, now the food is mediocre. i used to go all the time and it was spectacular but the last 2x sucked. guess i'll have to find a new spot around there."

  • "Best food ever!!!! Service was great and lighting is dim just as I like it"
    Dined on 2/14/2014
  • "Excellent ambience. Not too loud and chaotic. Service is exceptional and attention to detail in design of restaurant. Gnocchi and cheese side is worth the indulgence. Porterhouse for two is my go to. Chopped salad and caesar are just ok"
    Dined on 2/13/2014
  • "Great bar area where you could dine more casual, good bar staff, made sure we were happy with our seating, mixed 6 oysters for one appetiser and crab cake for the other,fillet steak excellent, the baby ribs were the best , great G&T, to start and good wine list, our 2nd visit will certainly return on our next trip"
