About Peter Luger Steak House

Peter Luger has been in the same building on Broadway in Williamsburg since 1887, and the formula has not changed in a way that matters: USDA Prime porterhouse, dry-aged in-house, served sliced off the bone on a sizzling platter in its own butter. The dining room is brusque and fluorescent and completely ignores every trend in restaurant hospitality. The steak is extraordinary. The German fried potatoes are underrated. The bacon starter is as thick as a pork chop and lacquered with something that approaches perfection. Peter Luger does not take credit cards. Peter Luger does not need to.
