    Grey Goose martini

    When you see Pat La Freida meats, you know it's going to be great. They supply great steaks and chop meat blends to many of NYC famous restaurants. In my head I'm going to enjoy a nice steak cut before the game. I go to Open Table and there are no available reservations. I don't take no for an answer so I call the restaurant reservation line and ask if there is a table for one? Not a problem sir, we'll squeeze you in. Thats some 1986 Mets Magic right there! I arrived early and I'm told, no problem. I'm seated in the back where I can see the Yankees batting cage?? I ordered a Ketel One martini while I look over the menu. I see the "Mets burger" topped with lobster The menu is saying this burger is award winning?! Let's get that burger cooking! I order this burger medium. The dish came out pretty quickly. I have to say I'm disappointed. The French Fries are cold The burger is over cooked This is a cheeseburger topped with fresh lobster. That's a fish faus pas, the lobster was very lemon forward and it didn't go well with the burger. I ate the lobster as side, it was pretty good. The dining room was large, every table was full and it seems everyone loved their meals. Overall, it was good to sit and have a nice meal. I'm a Yankee fan so, deuces Shea stadium! (I'm not calling it Citi Field, that's just wrong)

    Got a shrimp cocktail and crispy calamari as starters to share. Also decided on a NY strip to share, since we wanted to try other food at Citifield. The NY strip was cooked to a beautiful medium rare. We chose horseradish mayo as our sauce, but I wish it was a little more horseradish-y. The shrimp cocktails were nice and plump. It came in 4s on a cocktail glass. We were given a generous portion of crispy calamari. The calamari was so good! Highly recommend and they give you so much so it's easy to share. It's crispy, crunchy and the ratio between calamari and breading was perfect. You need reservations or club access to get into the club. They will check before you get to the door. But they will seat you almost right after. Pat's Chop Shop is a good way to escape the heat or when the crowd gets too overwhelming. It's air conditioned and there are TVs around to watch the game from the inside as well if you want to take a break from the crowd.

    Great food and ambience. I'll get to the point though. Unfortunately the service we received from our server was not great. She initially got our order wrong and two meals were brought out that shouldn't have and then it took another 35 minutes to finally get our steaks, the filet mignon which was excellent and a reasonable size and portion for the $55 price so while we missed a few minutes of the game the food turned out great, While the food was fine and the wait very annoying what made matters worse is the manager who for some reason decided not to come to our table but did visit the other tables adjacent to ours and elsewhere on the premises. While the service and wait was unacceptable the dinner thankfully ended off ok as we were comped for our meals and for the excessive wait. Hopefully next time we are back service is improved and we can enjoy a great meal once again without the wait and a friendlier and more attentive waiter and manager.

    My son says the best meat is off the bone!!!!

    This restaurant was a wonderful surprise. Located in the Clover Club level of Citi Field, it offered cloth napkin offerings of a classic steakhouse. The $195 tomahawk was the best cut of meat I had all year. It was cooked to perfections and accompanied with chimichurri and butter sauces. The truffle Mac and cheese and candied Brussels sprouts were notable sides. the burrata and tomato were delicious. the crabcake, while basic, was well prepared and tasty. service was professional, attentative and friendly. The ambiance was busy and noisy as it is an open space with much fan traffic going and coming from their premium seats. We had a great time. GO METS!

The decor is simple but cozy, it seems like a place you find yourself in, in the middle of the week. The food: Anchovy Special with Arugula and Orange Supremes- Shocking how good this was, the anchovy was cooked perfectly, they were incredibly tasty without being oily. It went nicely with the arugula and the freshness of the citrus. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=Y_iTTjKvV5hLy-880SZzlA&select=WXs8evyJarabbHv9XVj6fw Melanzane alla Parmigiana- breaded eggplant, mozzarella, tomato sauce, basil. This was basically an eggplant parm and the eggplant was cooked perfectly, the cheese was ok but the sauce made this dish really tasty with the nice homemade focaccia they give you in the beginning. Branzino Special with Cannelli Beans and Swiss Chard. This was the winner of the evening. The cripsy skin was amazing. The fish was cooked to perfection, the cannelli beans I thought were going to be weird but it added a nice creaminess to the fish. Lastly the swiss chard was crunchy on the ends and nice and tender on the leaf. This should be put on the regular menu. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?userid=Y_iTTjKvV5hLy-880SZzlA&select=xNVfJCmf89OOY-1ME3FY7Q Controfiletto- grilled prime angus N.Y. strip steak served with roasted marble potatoes. I hate to say it but as good as the steak was, the roasted potatoes was the star of show. The potatoes were amazing. Pappardelle alla Bolognese- housemade ribbon pasta, meat sauce. This was good but came off a bit plain. The pasta was homemade but it was almost to a fault since the pasta came out too soft. The flavors were good but I felt this would have been a better, reheated the next day kind of dish.

While deciding where to go one day, this was suggested and im so glad I went. The restaurant is cozy with tables inside the main dining room and in an enclosed outdoor seating area. Im guessing it opens in the summer. I sat down with my niece while waiting for my sister and for a good 5-7 minutes, no one stopped by and gave a menu nor offered water. Finally after about 3 people walked by not saying anything, someone came. The area is not that big and 7 minutes isnt that long but to sit there any not be addressed by all the staff walking by was annoying. Finally my sister came and we were offered water and a menu. After hearing about the specials and asking for recommendations, we settled on the gnocchi (housemade potato gnocchi, burrata, peas, pesto sauce, toasted pine nuts), Pappardelle alla Bolognese (housemade ribbon pasta, meat sauce), and side of sautéed spinach. The food arrived and we were pleasantly delightful by the main. The gnocchi was so soft and creamy, the sauce was delicious. Im not a fan of gnocchi but this was so good. The papardelle was my meal and it was also so good. There was a lot of pasta and a good amount of meat sauce. It was also delicious. The spinach on the other hand was bland. It has no flavor and we had to add some salt. A few times we tried to call someone over to our table but felt like no one was paying attention. When we were done with our meals, my sister had a few pieces of gnocchi left. She asked for a box as it was to be my nieces lunch for tomorrow. I then said, can you also box up the spinach. A few minutes later, the server dropped off a bag with one container and said here's the spinach. We tried to call his attention but he was already walking away. Where was the gnocchi. Finally when we came back, we asked about it and he said oh I thought it was garbage. I said no we asked for it to be boxed. He said let me talk to the kitchen. He came back and said sorry, they cant do anything but one dessert will be on me. I guess thats fine but we more wanted the food for the baby. For dessert we ordered a tiramisu and pistachio gelato. The tiramisu was in a jar as opposed to a cake slice. One bite of the ice cream and I knew it was bad. It was grainy and sandy texture. I looked up why that would be and one reason stated it could be improper storage, like it was unfrozen or melted then refrozen. I wasn't chancing that. I told the server and said I couldn't eat it. He offered another dessert but I said know, then offered a limoncello shot. While I appreciate the offer, we weren't drinking before so that wasn't the best option to offer. I just said im fine without a replacement. When we got the bill, the dessert was taken off like he said he would. We paid and left. Overall the main course/pasta meals were delicious. The sides and desserts could use work. Service was alright. Id definitely come back for the food and to try some of the pizza.

The buffet table was smaller than at the TS location and there seemed to be less choices. But the thing we were most disappointed about was the inconsistency with service - we kept waiting for the meat to come to our table but we kept seeing the servers going to other tables (on the outsides, and we were in the middle part of the dining area), then leaving and therefore skipping us. It was not just one server but multiple servers, they clearly have a problem with making sure all tables get the same service or number of stops. We eventually had to flag down someone to ask to be served. The meat served was also mostly the cheaper cuts, even though it's a holiday and everyone in our party was playing full charcuterie experience price. We were all disappointed with the quality of the meat. I'll still go to Fogo but I'll not be coming back to this location for sure.

Came with some friends for lunch. We all got various combinations of the mixed plate and an order of fried calamari. The calamari was lightly breaded in a flaky batter that brought out the flavors of the squid. Cooked to perfection it was tender, not chewy. As for the mixed platters, we had lamb gyro and the souvlakis as well as the lemon potatoes and fries. The lemon potatoes were perfectly seasoned and had a nice tartness to each bite. The lamb gyro was tender. The chicken souvlaki being moist and flavorful is the barometer for the level of detail that goes into every plate served.

We kicked things off with the Beef Bourguignon, and wow... rich, tender, and packed with flavor. Next came the Grilled Octopus & Chorizo with paprika butter roasted fingerling potatoes--smoky, perfectly cooked, and absolutely worth ordering. Then came the heavyweight champion: Le Steak Frites.

Food-wise, we tried the Kung Pao calamari and wagyu meatballs after seeing other reviewers rave about them, but both felt a little gimmicky to me.
