Monterey is an elevated steakhouse experience in the heart of Midtown Manhattan, just steps from Rockefeller Center and the historic St Patrick's Cathedral. Enjoy classic steakhouse dishes with modern American touches, all served in a vibrant setting. Building on the best of the city's time-honored steakhouse tradition, Monterey's dusty pink banquets, crisp white tablecloths, and culinary theater evoke the golden age of New York City dining.

    The ambience is very vintage and is in a great location in relation to Time Square without being overly chaotic.

    Greated quickly! Took some Time to get our drink order and even a longer time to take our order after that. Drinks and Food came out at a decently good pace, after those initial delays. We were in good company so it was ok. Everything was delicious. Our visit was about 2.5 hours long but again the ambiance and our family quality time was perfect!

    Beautiful restaurant, food was really lovely! We were sat at the large windows / door which was lovely but there was a very cold draft, tables were all full so didn’t ask to be moved. Server wasn’t the most pleasant from the beginning, made a visible facial display when we didn’t tip the highest percentage choice on the bill. Overall we enjoyed the experience.

    Service was too fast - I felt as if we were being rushed out after a 30 minute lunch, but overall food and drinks were excellent.
