About this restaurant

  • Good for business meals
  • Good for groups
  • Good for special occasions
The combination of a traditional American grill combined with the classic elements of a first-rate steak house best describes Bobby Van’s fourth New York City location. Run by the same four partners who have been awarded Tom Horan’s American Top Ten Steakhouses in each of the past three years, the Grill caters to those seeking the legendary Bobby Van’s Porterhouse as well as lighter dishes such as pastas, salads and fish. All served with the renowned service that has been Bobby Van’s hallmark from its beginnings in 1969. As partner Joseph Hickey said “We’re all about pure, unadulterated customer happiness."

    We stopped in for an early dinner before our Broadway show. Carlos was our server and we could not have been treated better. The food was exceptional, service was on point and the ambiance was very relaxed. Overall a wonderful experience. Highly recommended.
