About this restaurant

  • Romantic
  • Good for groups
  • Great for fine wines
Smith and Wollensky steak house serves USDA prime beef from select family-feeder farms in Iowa in an effort to bring the best taste to the customer. Savor the flavor of twin tournedos wrapped in bacon or the Kansas City cut sirloin that has been cooked to perfection. Try the Cajun-marinated bone-in rib eye for a new flavor or stick with a classic boneless New York strip steak. Smith and Wollensky also offers Colorado lamb chops, family-farmed veal rib eye and Faroe Island salmon steak for guests who want to venture away from beef. Pair a glass of wine with an Alaskan red king crab cocktail or a chilled Maine lobster to make the evening unforgettable. Smith and Wollensky features many international red and white wines that are meant to complement your choice of entr�e.

    Wine week, as always, was lots of fun. Given that the restaurant was full for lunch on Friday the service was slow but acceptable. The many glasses of wine made it much easier. The food was the usual level of pretty good. As now required we ordered a baked potato in advance and all was well. The courtesy and helpfulness of the servers pretty much offsets the delays in ordering and getting entrees when things are very busy.

    Wine tasting is an excellent promotion. The fillet medallions were so-so, but everything else was superb, especially the service. The smoking patio is a great spot--one of the few places to enjoy a cigar in the District.
