Eating at Delmonico’s. NYC. One of the Best Steakhouses and a Legendary Restaurant

I eat at and review Delmonico’s in the Financial District of New York City. The restaurant has been around since 1837 and is considered to be the first fine dining restaurant in America. Several dishes have been invented at Delmonico’s including the Baked Alaska and the eggs benedict. Delmonico’s is also recognized as one of the best steakhouses in NYC. They’re famous for their signature Delmonico cut of steak, which I try among other courses. After a three-year closure, Delmonico’s is once again open.

The fact this channel isn't casually sitting somewhere between 700k to 1.2mil sub's is criminal the production is there and he's charismatic & handsome. YouTube algorithm is dumb.

I have many books describing dining at Delmonico's from the days of the early 1900's to today & it sounds amazing & this video shows how amazing I actually have a book with many of the famous recipes as well as pictures I love history of New York!

This was a recommended video from my algorithm. Great video in different areas and looking through your playlists, it’s a must follow. Looking forward to watching several of them.

I looked up the inflation rate for 40 cents in 1876 because I was curious about just how expensive that coffee was, and 40 cents was the equivalent of over $11 in today’s money. I guess this restaurant HAS always been super expensive haha. But from this video, it seems like it’s worth it, at the very least for a once-in-a-while special occasion

It's great to hear you got to visit so quickly after its reopening! Such a perfect meal seems like it was worth the wait.

Great segment James. I was taken to Delmonico's many years ago for a business dinner and was wowed by the atmosphere and quality of the food. Service was highly attentive too. Your expressive style is great as it shows you really enjoy your food. Keep these videos coming and have a great rest of the extended weekend.

This was great! That salad looked incredible! Thank you for sharing this experience- now I’m hitting the like and subscribe because this was very entertaining! Well done! 🙌👏

I like your personality, your simplicity and your positivity. Your video is straightforward, you're transparent about the prices (show us the menu and the bill), you judge the food honestly. I love it. Looking forward to more. If you keep doing these videos, you might grow a bigger following and be able to afford much more of these dinners haha. All the best from Germany

Keep up the good work!

Completing my "binge" watching of your many offerings and I still marvel over your enthusiasm & joy for food & travel. Since subscribing to your channel, I have been pleased to see the steady increase in the numbers of views & subscribers. Yes, a true testimonial of the quality of your videos & reviews. Also, you have now obviously entered the realm of notoriety based on the numerous nasty critiques / comments issued for this review alone!. I am impressed by your handling with grace & patience to these verbal "slings" & "arrows"! Definitely, you were raised well by your parents. If I may share a personal comment about Delmonico's, my great-grandfather (Dominic Gandini) served many years as a line cook for the restaurant during the first two decades of the last century. Food & restaurants in NYC is very personal for me & family. This is Peter, & thank you for sharing this post!
