Im born and raised and still reside here in NYC. Hells Kitchen, Manhattan, specifically. Between 02 and 2017 I'd eaten at Peter Lugers countless times. Literally in the hundreds. It was always the restaurant for celebrations or even just randomly for dates, or before/after shows, introducing out of town friendly to said restaurant, etc. Birthdays, graduations, communions, confirmations, anniversaries, mothers/fathers day, and almost any other occasion you can think of. It was always incredible. Amazing old schoool white tablecloth atmosphere, fantastic prideful service, and some of the best prepared and cooked cuts of steak in the entire city. Then, seemingly out of nowhere, the service plummeted substantially and even the steaks weren't hitting like they used to. Long story short, in the last 5 years theyve lost all of their Michelin stars, have had terrible review after terrible review, and their patronage has gone down in numbers theyve never seen. It completely fell apart.

[@smurf_n_wesson9064]

Yeah Wolf Gangs Steakhouse is way better now

[@whoknows4379]

@@smurf_n_wesson9064 Agreed. Definitely one of the best in the city. Although Smith & Wollensky is my go-to now.

[@whoknows4379]

@@thevinceberry You can look up any articles, food blogs, ratings, chefs notes, reviews, etc, regarding PL over the last 5 years. The vast majority will be less than satisfactory. They've lost all of their Michelin stars and prestige due to the astounding drop in service as well as the quality of their steaks. I wouldn't be surprised if they've paid any critics off for good reviews. Thats what they need to do now.

[@DanknDerpyGamer]

@@SuicideJones33 IDK if the cooking method would be the issue seeing it's pretty much remained unchanged over the past 138 years (and is one that other places do too) - from what I understood the issues were more to do with quality of the food, consistency of that quality, and service more so.

[@MisterMick113]

​@@DanknDerpyGameridk man, if it's quality that's usually either the supplier providing subpar product, issue in transport or the storage and prep on-site. Consistency could be a supplier problem, but it's typically an issue within the restaurant so it very well may have to do with the cooking method especially if the quality is inconsistent.

[@DanknDerpyGamer]

@@MisterMick113 It could also be from something slipping up in regards to the people executing the cooking method(s)! Last time I went to the Williamsburg location, the bacon was actually quite cold and a bit stringy (oddly), which I had never had happen before, but was definitely a turn off. (Luckily, when I went to the Great Neck location - which I hadn't been to since the 90s*, it was nice and hot!) *My grandparents on my Dad's side went there quite often, but they ordered their steak more medium-medium-well, which turned me off to steak for a long time. Like, my late brother who LOVED the place would try to convince me to come along when they would go out (and I was old enough to stay home alone), but that fucked up my liking of steak really badly. Took us going to North Shore Steak House for me to learn that I a) like steak, and b) like it really rare, with lots of salt. Took me a few more years to gather the nerves to try Luger again though.

They have to cut the steak before serving because of their method of cooking. They sear the steak and then they cut and put back on grill to cook the inside more.

It definitely is not perfect and fat is not flavor it is just grease and is totally gross. Give me a good pasture raised grass fed steak with all the exterior and large clumps of intramuscular fats removed prior to cooking no added oils, fats, or butter and cook it to an internal temp of 175 then it would be perfect as long as it comes out in one piece never cut up another mans steak

[@payback6454]

I just made a t-bone a few days ago. Cast iron crusted on both sides a few min each and tossed it in the oven 400° for a few min. Looked and probably tasted better then these salt mountains.

[@crumbsnacker4817]

How to identify yourself as someone who has never cooked before. You need to salt thick cuts of meat VERY LIBERALLY or else the seasoning will not reach the end of the meat. The salt becomes a crust and most on the outside flakes off while the rest marinated into the center of the meat. Learn a single thing about cooking before you start popping off. Chef of 20 years here.

[@lilithsmith1290]

That meat is so dry the salt would not stick to it. And also they use sea salt , that place use to be my husband favorite Restaurant. The food was great , and expensive ,I haven’t been there for 18 years !some of the night looks it was a Sopranos Convention!

[@jlim9411]

Apparently, a lot of people don’t know how to properly season a thick cut of steak. The amount of “salt with a side of steak” jokes in this comment section is concerning. FYI when you get a rare/medium steak, that red juice IS NOT BLOOD!!! It’s myoglobin, a protein with red pigment that is in all red meat.

[@Everythingisaconspiracy]

What about rubbing in the salt on both sides and letting the salt penetrate the beef?

[@davidgray8089]

Yes, it is well known that lots of salt is great for your heart health.

[@jlim9411]

@@Everythingisaconspiracy salt doesn’t penetrate meat unless you give it hours or even days to dry brine(depending on the size of the cut). People who season 20-30 minutes in advance don’t know sh*t if they think that’s going to be any better than seasoning right before cooking. As for seasoning both sides, unless you’re taking very deliberate bites and only tasting one side at a time, it’s not going to make a huge difference once you start chewing it, especially since they pre-slice the steak for you, but I can kind of understand people’s frustrations with that one.

[@jlim9411]

@@davidgray8089 yeah, so is eating a huge porterhouse steak with creamed spinach, and then washing it all down with wine and cocktails. Eating food with a lot of sodium isn’t bad for you as long as you don’t do it on a regular basis and drink plenty of water. People don’t go to steakhouses for their personal health, they go to have a great tasting meal. If I’m going to spend that much money on a cut of beef, they better not half-ass the seasoning or I’m sending it back. Steak that thick needs to be salted generously otherwise it’s going to taste bland when you bite through it.

[@davidgray8089]

@@jlim9411 Not a big salt fan here, even had to throw out fries because they were too salty for me. Also not an expert on salt but i do know that big outfits I worked for in construction outlawed salt pills on site because of the associated heart attack risk which they did not want to be liable for. Working on a hospital foundation in a blue clay hole in 123 degree heat did mean that I had to bring apples and a salt shaker to work though since my legs would cramp so bad that my boot would kick me in the ass. Anyways, you have yourself a good day and I am never one to turn down a tasty meal, even if somewhat unhealthy.

[@creativo4ever564]

I've eaten there and my steak certainly did not taste like even half that much salt was used.

[@robboss1839]

That first layer was scraped off before slicing and cooking again. Like a roast beef or pork belly the salt is a moisture barrier to “lock in the juices”
