Rank 4. Carne Mare
Italian Steakhouse
A horseshoe bar anchors the ground floor of Andrew Carmellini's Italian steakhouse at the South Street Seaport, with Tuscan leather banquettes, Venetian mirrors, and East River views upstairs. The menu signals more ambition than the genre usually delivers, from tableside salads to a gorgonzola-cured Wagyu strip loin that earns the detour onto the menu. Sharply dressed servers, the whole production.

Rank 5. American Cut
Modern American Steakhouse
Moody leather and brass in a Tribeca townhouse set the stage for a modern steakhouse that takes its theatrics seriously. USDA Prime and Japanese Wagyu go through a high-heat grill after dry-aging, and the kitchen consistently delivers on both. The room has a genuine late-night-Manhattan pull to it. Service can be uneven given the price point, but the cooking tends to carry the evening. It ranked 67th on the World's Best Steak Restaurants list.
