If the Rat Pack reconvened for big steaks and a bigger red, they'd feel right at home at Hy's, which has changed little in the last 30 years. The formula: prime grade beef, old-style service, a men's club atmosphere (but ladies very welcome), and a wine list recognized for excellence by Wine Spectator. Specialties include Beef Wellington, Caesar salad, and those tableside flambéed desserts we see so rarely now.

ordered the "the only" steak. it was on the dry and hard side. one of my clients wanted a side of spinach with her meal and they forgot to bring it out and we had to remind them.

This place had a really nice atmosphere. Prices are kind of expensive considering the portions really are not that big. The server assistant kept our glasses full of water the entire time. When we left, the water was at the brim. I ordered steak and lobster. It was good, however the butter sauce that came with the lobster had no flavor at all; I was let down. My spirit's rose when our dessert was elegantly cooked at table side. It was very very delicious.
