The Times just dropped a brutal zero-star review on legendary steakhouse Peter Luger (Via EaterNY)
The venerable South Williamsburg institution — open since 1887 and often cited as the original old-school New York City steakhouse — has declined in quality while maintaining high prices, Wells argues in one his spiciest reviews of late. Now, the critic writes, everything from the service to the porterhouse to the famous burger is so bad that “you start to wonder who really needs to go to Peter Luger, and start to think the answer is nobody.
The dry-aged porterhouse was similarly inconsistent, Wells writes, ranging from medium-rare to medium-well — and the “barely past raw” underside tasted “as if it had done all its cooking on the hot platter.” He also slams the service, saying that “the Department of Motor Vehicles is a block party compared with the line at Peter Luger” and that “the servers, who once were charmingly brusque, now give the strong impression that these endless demands for food and drink are all that’s standing between them and a hard-earned nap.”
Peter Luger used to be “ridiculously grand,” but now, there are far better steakhouses than this one, Wells writes. This is one hot take that’s likely to get people riled up: The steakhouse still draws crowds of locals and tourists, and more than 100 years after its debut, fans still say it’s an atmosphere worthy of a destination.
