Is QUALITY MEATS NYC's Best Steak? Tomahawk Ribeye Review

Quality Meats was founded in 2006 and ever since bursting onto the NYC steak scene it has been a popular destination for steak lovers and meat connoisseurs everywhere. Many foodies consider Quality Meats to be the best steak in NYC. Today, we try the Quality Meats prime tomahawk ribeye and put its steak to the test!
This is one of the most upscale reviews I have done. Not only have I never had a tomahawk steak before, but Quality Meats is a uniquely sophisticated environment. It's a very fancy place and the service is top notch. Besides just the steak, which is coming from supposedly one of the best steakhouses in NYC, I also try the famous Quality Meats sticky toffee pudding and its chef's specialty, the Quality Meats corn creme brulee.
Is Quality Meats among the best steaks in New York City? There are so many great steakhouses in New York that you can ask 20 different people what the best steakhouse in New York City is, or even the best steakhouse in Manhattan, and you will get 20 different answers. But we will see today if Quality Meats deserves to be mentioned amongst the iconic steakhouses of NYC and is among the best meats you can find!

    Self-sacrifice? You bet. Food critics don't just indulge; they endure. We face grueling 1-2 day per week schedules, endless travel to theme parks and fine dining establishments, and the pressure to post videos of ourselves relaxing as we do little more than engage in a basic human function for 20-35 minutes. We're the unsung heroes ensuring you're well apprised of all the best dining experiences you can't afford and will probably never experience. Now, if you'll excuse me, I've been working for well over 45 minutes today, and I'm well overdue for a glass of wine.

I tasted both filet mignon and Dry-Aged Prime Tomahawk Ribsteak but I always prefer the filet mignon. They were both good! Shrimp cocktail was also very good. I also tried the asparagus and spinach, I liked them all. Lolz. Service was one of the top notch by my experience.❤ Can’t wait to return. Love your channel. Looking forward to see more videos, and maybe find some areas I never been to so I can visit myself.

    It's pull apart bread, so the point of the fork is not to eat the bread with a fork, It's clearly to be able to separate the bread and serve it for a table of two or more without everybody handling it with their paws while it's going around the table.

    You have a great channel but several of your opinions are based on flawed logic. I know that sounds like I am attacking you but I'm really not. The reason the butter is so thin is so that you have a larger surface area to put on the steak to melt - rather than a glob of it that will take a long time to melt. The bread is pull away - the fork is meant to assist in this. A few other things I can explain if you want. The thing to say is "idk why they have a fork" or "Im not sure why they slice the butter so thin" instead of "they do it for cost cutting" which is absolutely false. B

    Certainly, this was an excellent restaurant review. The meat was presented, in my opinion, MEDIUM; MEDIUM RARE! No issues since this remains in the "bliss" zone for all beef. AND, the corn creme brulee appeared to be a worthy signature side dish that is a MUST TRY! I am not that interested in desserts (rather prefer to get "fat" eating proteins!) However, I do appreciate your accurate & described review of your dessert. Well done, sir! Thank you for sharing!

    I understand you are a "for the people" style reviewer but some of your opinions are ignorant or forced. The truffle butter for example, instead of understanding the reason as to why they chose to do it that way, you assumed it was due to cost costing and theatrics. When it reality, that butter is being stored cold, so when it's shaved paper thin it's going to melt or spread a lot easier as it will hit room temp a lot quicker than a pad of butter. Though I agree theatrics/demonstrations play a role, you should be appreciate of this method vs criticizing it. $9, give or take is standard for black truffle butter any almost any steakhouse I've been too and I've never had it prepared table side at a steakhouse. I thought that was a brilliant little touch!
