- NNatashaVancouver / British Columbia •6 reviews5.0Dined todayFabulous professional wait staff and front-of-house crew. One of the best Manhattans I’ve ever had. Old-time ambience. Would recommend for romantic dinners, business dinners and family dinners. Great place. I can see why they’re still in business after 105 years. My husband and I shared a steak (thankfully, since it was a 16 oz steak!!!), gnocchi and grilled broccolini. Lots of food. All the staff we encountered were charming and treated us as if we were treasured customers. The service was swift but never made us feel rushed. We had a relaxed dinner but were in and out in less than an hour and a half. My only tiny quibble was that the tender steak was difficult to cut because my knife needed to be sharpened. I mentioned it to the assistant waiter, who apologized, saying something about them being closed Mondays. (I gather they don’t have time to sharpen on the weekends, so Tuesdays are the unsharpened knife days, perhaps?) I could simply have asked for a sharper knife, but didn’t want to interrupt my delicious food fest.More infoMusso & Frank GrillPrice: Expensive• Steakhouse• Hollywood•4.8
