Mighty Quinns.

I used to work on W56th St just a few doors down from Jack's. Never had their steak usually went for happy hour, cocktails are nice and the crab cakes were always on point. And pristine shitters.

This. When I lived in the lower east side I had to pass by Mighty Quinn's on my walk home and would hit it up almost every time. The brisket, pulled pork are money and the burnt end baked beans with pickeled vegetables on the side are incredible.

I've had two truly amazing steaks in NYC, and I've had many steaks in NYC.

Go to Eataly and pick out your cut in the steak house part--they'll do an amazing job cooking it.  Not a steakhouse but really good anyway.

I've had two great steaks at The Strip House, and if you've never been there you need to go.  A little pricey, but well worth it.

Eh, all the NYC barbecue is Texas style (Mighty Quinns, Hill Country, Morgans, Hometown, etc) and I was raised on eastern NC "real" barbecue.  Arrogant Swine in Bushwick is Carolina whole hog, and its really damn good.

Arrogant Swine was pretty good but they had some random things like raisins in the slaw and the Carolina gold pork thing. The waffle mac n cheese sounded like a great idea but underwhelming. Everything else was great. There were some other good spots, one in Red Hook and I loved the Smoke Joint in Fort Greene. I still put NYC Q towards the top because of the variety. Oh and they built a Dinosaur in walking distance to my apartment in BK, was happy about that. But MQ to me was the best, had pulled pork and a great chicken sandwich and the dinosaur ribs were the shiiit.

I feel you on the slaw, didnt make sense.  Love their booze selection tho.  Alcohol and whole hog and you cant go wrong.

Lower East Side/East Village is the Mecca for food in the United States. Did you ever try Gruppo?

Never tried Gruppo. Lived in Fort Greene for 3 months and the Lower East Side for 9 before leaving because of work. Loved every minute and every bite there!!
