Veggie Stop - Broad Channel

Truck not here. Plus, just googled and the listing says permanently closed.

I have been to several other Mastro’s locations, but never New York. Decided to give it a try Pre Theater with my family of six. The location is good, just a short walk from Times Square. We were promptly seated at 5 PM. There was only one other table dining at the moment. Restaurant got busier by 7 PM. We had excellent service. We ordered several appetizers, including oysters, salads, and a wagyu steak tartare, which was phenomenal. I ordered the chefs cut ribeye, which was perfectly cooked. My kids all had the filet mignon. Steaks came out on time, with sides (lobster mash, mushrooms). Everyone had perfectly cooked steaks. My only complaint was at the end— waiter knew we had a 7PM show, and when we asked for the check at 6:30, it took 15 minutes for him to come back with it. Im not sure what the delay was, but we ended up being late for our show. Annoying. In the end we had a great meal and will likely be back.

Our server, Sean, was attentive, fun, and professional. He made sure we were well taken care of as we were celebrating birthdays. We were a party of 4 and the steaks were all done to perfection with delicious side dishes to share. We did not leave there hungry. Prior to our seating, we enjoyed 2 cocktails at the bar and were very pleased. We would return for another meal.

We visited on Friday night. Surprisingly it was not completely full. Waiter wasn't paying attention (on couple occasions he just walked away). From the appetizer: Tuna was good. Beacon was very salty and charcoal. The biggest disappointment was steak. My friends complained about overcooked meat. Mine porterhouse was undercooked. However, meat wasn't a good quality (hard to chew). Therefore, it is not a place to have a good steak. For sides: I would recommend mushrooms. For $330 per couple you can definitely find better steaks in NYC.

Seated us early. Dinner was awesome. It is a place but that's what we were looking for!! Will dine again!!
