Monterey is an elevated steakhouse experience in the heart of Midtown Manhattan, just steps from Rockefeller Center and the historic St Patrick's Cathedral.

My husband and I had dinner here last night and it was a 10/10 experience. From the martini (the ultimate chilled martini I think it was called), tans the food and wine, to the service and ambiance, everything was on point. Our server Bora and Chip the Sommelier were very attentive and helpful. This is not an inexpensive meal by any means, but it is on par with steakhouse pricing. We were very happy and had a great time!

Burger was 10 oz, but it was two thin patties of beef so the burger was not juicy as it would normally be if it were one Pattie. Beef quality was good though.

Food was very good. But drinks were small which is a nono if you call yourself a steakhouse. Also the fried calamari was good but the potion was small.

Very disappointing experience. Pressured by the staff to place entrée orders, which felt rushed and unprofessional. This level of service is simply unacceptable.
