all around excellence!
Do believe the naysayers. the are just poseurs trying to bring down one of the greats! You would be hard pressed to find a better room, meal, drinks or service anywhere in this city. I have been to every steakhouse in the city and this place has got it right. not just another Lugers clone. It has is own personality and menu. The menu changes slightly of the seasons which is always refreshing. It has most of the usual Steakhouse items, but lots of great items that no other place has. The only weakness is the desserts. I get the cheese plate or the molten chocolate. Standouts include the Beef Wellington Rack Of Lamb and the Filet .Plus, ALL the apps are great as well as the sides. I skip the "chappeaux" but that is just another way Dylan is unique is a city full of boringly similar Steak Houses.

Great Anniversary Dinner
My husband and I spent our 3 year anniversary celebrating at Dylan Prime. I don't understand all the negative reviews. We started with the fondue which was amazing and I definitely recommend you start with that. I had the hangar steak topped with cheddar and bacon which was super tasty and a huge portion. My husband had the bistro steak and finished it all. The sides we chose were the baby baked potatoes and parmesan bread pudding-both excellent. They offered us a free cheesecake martini as it was also my birthday and that was delish also. We will be returning

if only the chef was as good as the mixologist...
The best part of the $300 + change dinner for two were the drinks. The Tribeca Towncar-Dylan's twist on the sidecar was the tastiest cocktail I've ever tasted. Sorry to say, this is where tasty left and never returned during our stay at Dylan Prime. The restuarant is beautiful and ambient, but the food is horrendous for the price they charge. We had to return the lobster bisque because it was unedibly bad-it didn't even remotely resemble any bisque I've ever encountered. It looked more like the gruel they used to serve during the Great Depression. The crab cake was decent at best, and so was the scallop appetizer. My significant other's rib eye was completely nothing out of the ordinary and both the bordelaise sauce as well as the bernaise sauces were not very tasty-they were bland, buttery, and dull. The lambchops I ordered were a good size and decent compared to the rest of the meal. The desert-Lava cake that we took to go tasted like betty crocker. The sides-mashed potatoes and creamed spinich tasted just one notch better than the Boston Market version. Service was good though. They have a lounge so go for the drinks, but eat someplace else. Chances are, where ever you decide will be better than Dylan Prime.

Great for Veggies
For a steakhouse this is suprisingly good for veggies. The pot pie is to die for and a good range of Fish for Fishaterians. Highly recommend the Fried Artichoke starter ...just push the pancetta to one side

Dylan Subprime
Wall Street types have convinced each other that this place is good, just like subprime mortgage derivatives. It's not this overpriced, over-rated place has below average food, with tiny portions. Even the bread is bad. About all it has going for it is the ambience.

Not Worth your time or money!
My husband and I are steak lovers we have gone to the finest -smith and wollensky, peter luger, uncle jacks, nebraska, ruth chris and never ever have I ever been so dissapointed. We went there for our anniversary and the staff was ok they did not really cater to our needs I ordered the filet mignon which came out in about 15 mins (I ordered well done!) obviously it was pre-cooked the taste was ordinary the sides which were potatoes and spinach were maybe two teaspoons full. I ordered a glass of wine and so did my husband. The minute we were done with our meal they grabbed our plates and slapped the check down for $150.00 we could not even sit relax and have a conversation. We felt rushed, hungry and dissapointed. Never again...

A wonderful evening
We arrived on Friday night for dinner at 8PM and were welcomed by great service and a beautiful setting. We were put in a romantic booth and ordered martinis. Appetizers were the salmon tartar (good, but a little too much avocado), the scallops (excellent) and we then ordered a nice bottle of J Vineyards 2005 Pinot Noir. Main courses were the crispy striped bass and the NY Strip with the Cabernet butter chapeaux. Both were made very well and very tasty. Sides were the mushrooms and the brussle sprouts. All in all a great meal with a beautiful room. This is not a place to go however if you are not a meat eater since the fish options are very limited. There is a very nice bar attached for a before or after dinner drink as well.
