   Russell has done a wonderful job incorporating a sports bar feel but in a modern way, along with live music at night. The food is excellent. I'm used to 5 star restaurants in Manhattan and its always a pleasure to go to Stern & Bow with my wife and kids. The drinks are A+. The bartender remembered how I like my Old Fashioned (the traditional way). For that, they get an A+. Decor A+. Staff A+. Valet Parker!!!! A++

   Far exceeded expectations! This is my 6th, 8th visit here and I’ve always considered it to be slightly above average. Honestly a couple of those previous visits were slightly below average. So my expectations for tonight were to be satisfied but not blown away. Wow was I completely impressed! Every single thing about the experience was outstanding. The first cocktails, which were delicious, contained a tiny little LED light. It’s a bit kitchy but I like the effort and creativity. The plate of a dozen oysters was super impressive. The use of a glass vial with an eye dropper to put just the right amount of dressing on each oyster was brilliant. The oysters were fresh as can be. Delicious! The hanger steak was tender, cooked perfectly medium and beefy as f. I substituted broccolini for the fries and absolutely made a great choice too. Prepared spot on. I would have liked 25% more but good beef is expensive and I get it. My bride had the special Chilean Sea Bass, also with the broccolini and we shared our meals. The fish was crispy on the outside and buttery soft on the inside. Really well prepared. So far we on a track for a memorable dinner. We ordered the churros with two dipping sauces (espresso and a chocolate) and again were licking our lips savoring every bite. Service was great. Atmosphere was energetic but not obnoxious. By far the best experience I’ve had at Stern and Bow. If this is a result of changes in management or kitchen staff or whatever, then cudos to the change maker. We will be back soon!
