- I eat and review the unlimited ribeye steak deal, which also includes unlimited salad and fries for $45 at the Midtown Manhattan restaurant, Legasea Bar and Grill. I find out if the offering is the best steak deal in New York City.

About Me: I live in NYC and I’m about food, travel and work.
That's silliness right there. I'd be there 3 days a week for lunch. That salad looked really good, too bad about the acidic dressing. The steak looked really great. Another one in the books and well done James. Cheers
Thank you! Yeah, I think it's a pretty crazy deal to, but I'm glad it exists!
for $45 for unlimited ribeye I’d be there weekly!
The acidic dressing might actually be a good thing - helps digestion and puts more beef into you.
Vinaigrettes are always acidic, really. I suspect you can go in next time knowing that and request the dressing on the side and control the portion.
@@Jamesnu Wow it looks like an amazing deal! Everything looked delicious! Were the servers quick or slow? That's very important in all you can eat because you r relying on the server to bring u food.
I imagine it would be hard not to feel competitive with the amount of food you're getting on a deal like this, but 3 portions of steak is pretty respectable!
Thank you! Even though I didn't get a 4th portion, I'm still satisfied with my performance.
You had me at unlimited steak. Lol. Definitely seems worth the price. I used to always over eat at buffets but like you learning my limits to just enjoy. Great video james 👍
Thank you! Yeah, leaving a restaurant feeling good physically is important.
The salad and fries sold me on an already great deal
I work across the street from here and have always wondered, but the lines of tourists always turned me away. Happy Hour offerings look really good too- for the garment district- which probs explains the prices. Guess I’m gonna have to drag the work crew here. Another banger of a review!
Thank you! Yeah, they definitely seem to have some good happy hour deals.
That steak looked absolutely delicious! Fries looked good also!
It was definitely delicious and tasted even better, probably because I knew that I was getting good value for it.
Looks like you enjoyed your meal James. Certainly seems like exceptional value particularly in Manhattan. Thanks for finding these gems and sharing them with us. Merry Christmas in advance.
Thanks for watching! Yeah, it was a really nice meal! Merry Christmas as well!
The steaks looked soooo good. I love a good char on Ribeye steaks. One of my favorite cuts of steaks. So flavorful. Thank you for the video and showing us a good value.
Thanks for watching! I really enjoy ribeye too.
I really enjoy your thorough reviews, thanks!
Thank you for watching!
Love watching your food adventures in the city I love the most! Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for watching! I really appreciate it!
Love your videos bro, honest and down to earth opinions with good editing, cheers ❤
Thank you! I appreciate it!
Thanks for sharing another steak deal James..not Sparks, Keens, S&Woll or Lugers, but like you, that would definitely satisfy me any day for a ribeye craving. Will definitely be hitting this place soon..keep the videos coming, great as always 👍
Thank you! Yeah, it's not the fanciest steak, but it definitely satisfies.
Really like your style James, so informative, thoughtful and intelligent. Glad I found your channel. Watching from Australia and going back to visit NYC in October and will eat at some of your recommended resturants. Btw experienced earthquakes in New Zealand where they're common, not fun but memorable.
Thank you! I really appreciate the support! I hope that you enjoy your NYC visit!
Thank you for doing what you do and now I have a spot to add to the list! 🙌🙏
Thanks for watching!
Nice review James, keep up crushing all the good food!
Thank you so much!
Mr. Andrews, I am a massive admirer of your channel. Your food reviews are extremely fair and unpretentious. If I may suggest two excellent New York establishments for you to try out, then they would be Smith & Wollensky and The Grill.
Thank you so much! Those are actually two restaurants I plan on dining at. Thank you for the recommendations!
@@Jamesnu Love this channel as well. Just found it recently. Deserves many more followers, great work!
@@Tybennie-nz7vr Thank you so much!
OMG what a deal looked so good thank you as always love your reviews
Thank you! Yeah, it's a really great deal!
I’m not sure that was 8 ounces, looked more like 6 to me but still - dear Lord my friend what a deal! You should think about doing an entire series on the best deals in the city. I’d love that! I was impressed with the other two cheap steak places but this place also had ambiance. I could see really enjoying a nice bottle of wine with my steak and dining with a friend. This would be once a week for me!
Yeah, I think that because the restaurant isn't just limited to steak, it's a much better place to take multiple people so everyone can get what they want.
Thank you for another superlative review! I'll have to give Legasea a try this week. My usual go-to is The Knickerbocker Bar and Grill on University Place in the Village.
We usually get Knickerbocker's Famous T-Bone Steak, which comes with fried or mashed potatoes & their special creamed spinach. It's a great deal and incredibly flavored steak. For one it's $54.00, for two $53.00 p.p., for three $52.00 p.p., for four 51.00 p.p. Their bread is also fantastic.
However Legasea is $9.00 less and it is unlimited. Personally I can only eat an order of fries and a salad, but unlimited ribeye is a wonderful perk.
Thanks for watching! I wasn't aware of that deal, but I'm intrigued. I'll definitely keep it in mind. It sounds good!
Found your channel awesome review I’d be there 3 days a week at least I love steak just learned how to cook still a work in progress good job on your channel
Thank you so much! Yeah, it's an awesome place!
Love learning about new places. Great video
Thank you!
@@Jamesnustill waiting on your next Halal restaurant review 😊
Amazing channel brother ✊🏻 Hard to believe you handle everything yourself & Also being the only you tuber that responds to most of the comments. Thank you for the infotainment!! Catching up on older vids since I’ve found this channel and Looking forward to the next vid ✊🏻 🥩🍔
Thank you so much! I really appreciate it!
James I really enjoy your videos. And your watch collection from all your videos 🙂
Glad you like them! Thank you!
here in colombia when you get an "all you can eat" deal its usually of subpar quality so I was afraid the steak wouldn't be good, but happy to see you enjoyed it so much
I know what you mean. A lot of the "all you can eat" deals here aren't the best quality too, but thankfully I really enjoyed that steak.
Amazing value when you factor in the quality and consistency of the food.
Absolutely!
I appreciate how the additional steaks (and fries) are listed on the receipt/score-card.
Me too!
They probably need to since they place each additional order into the point of sale system to feed the request into the kitchen.
I like the coarse grind seasoning on that STEAK 😮
WELL DONE VIDEO
THANK YOU FOR YOUR EFFORTS AND TIME FOR THESE VIDEOS THAT YOU UPLOAD😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Thank you so much! Yeah, that seasoning really amplified the flavor of the steak.
This is why these guys do what they do, now I gotta try legasea when in nyc!!!!!
It's a must try!
@@Jamesnu thanks I most definitely will 🙌🏾
Hey James! I want to say it's great to see youtubers that give a different perspectives on food in NYC then the popular usual suspects.. It's refreshing to see "smaller" youtubers like you and UI Eats! But it's also good to see your channel grow!
Thank you! I appreciate it
UA Eats
Great review, as always! 👍 😊
Thank you!
Gotta try this soon 😂. I love french fries and don’t mind the rib eye ahaha. TY for the review
It's worth a try. Thanks for watching!
Pretty good review, thanks for sharing, can’t go wrong with ribeye 😊
Thank you! Indeed, ribeye is a satisfying cut!
The fries looked great!. We saved another place you shared with us. Great video
Thank you! Yeah, it's definitely a restaurant worth checking out.
Reminded me of Rodeo Brazilian Steakhouse for $50 in 2019 from Toronto, unlimited meat, and AYCE fixings, too. Even had dancers on Saturdays. Walked home, never so full. 5 x 6 oz ribeyes my limit.
Nice! That sounds like an awesome place!
That looked very good my man…also thank u I’m starving now…good job buddy
Thank you! It was a really tasty lunch!
Try Le Relais de Venise L’Entrecôte at 155 E. 54th Street, between Third and Lexington. They had fabulous steak frites and only $35 at the old location. They have been closed for awhile but now open with new restaurant. We loved the old place, try the new one for us!
I've been there and made a video about it over a month ago. I really enjoyed my lunch there! It's a great deal for sure.
I know everyone likes the sauce at relais, I personally hated it. The sauce at skirt is hands down better but their steak on the other hand very tough. I will give legasea a shot. Thanks for the review
Great video . Looks awesome next time in nyc im going
Thank you!
James: your timing on this video was perfect for me as I am planning on coming to NYC in january. I've eaten at L'entrecote in NYC & Sunny Isles, FL & Skirt Steak. They both use a hanger steak or bavette! At $28 Skirt Steak WAS a good deal! L'entracote in NYC @ $35 is a good deal in Florida it's NOT a good deal @ $50! So, seeing the quality of a rib steak at Legasea makes $50 a deal! Your 2nd & 3rd meat portions were a bunch of pieces not a whole steak. Cooked right, so no problem! Yes, I like the fact that there is space to eat! SUPER!
I hope you enjoy your trip here! Yeah, Legasea is definitely worth it, especially if you can eat a lot.
Great review on a great deal! The steak and fries looked delicious!
Thank you! It was a nice meal for a good price!
great video and review
Thank you!
I'm a decent eater but I think I'd of only been able to do 3/4 portions, steak and fries looked amazing. Great video 👍👍👍
Thank you!
That's one hell of a deal, James. Wish we had something similar here in Sacramento.
It's a great deal for sure!
To get a quality steak with good flavor and all you can eat especially in Manhattan that is a rare bargain. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching! Absolutely. It's a great bargain!
Your channel brings me back to when I lived in New York and tasted all the fabulous flavors. Try Chez Josephine for your next adventure. Two of Josephine Bakers adopted sons created a restaurant and the food was amazing as well as the ambience. Don’t miss the crème brûlée!
Thanks for the recommendation! That sounds like a nice restaurant!
I always say, if you have money, you can find almost anything you want in NYC. In the Washington, D.C. area, there's only one place that's called Medium Rare. Same concept as this for $30 per person. I'd rather have the rib eyes at Legasea though. $45 is a great deal. Most high-end steakhouses in this area now priced their rib eyes between $60 to $75 just like New York.
Yeah, steak is expensive and it's great to find a good deal like this.
texas roadhouse always best
@@kaleb5926 Make sure you are on their mailing list. Free appetizer with entree purchase today thru Tuesday. Great deal.
I like how you "flash back" when comparing the previous meals at different places.....
Thank you! Yeah, I really like being able to compare restaurants to each other.
Oo looks awesome, definitely putting it on my list
It's definitely worth trying!
That looked so good. The fries especially looked great! It looks like you got your money's worth.
I definitely got my money's worth with that lunch. Yeah, the fries were very satisfying!
Thanks for the video! Are the fries fried in tallow or seed oils? I’m trying to avoid industrial process foods/oils.
Thank you! I'm not sure what the fries were cooked in, but they were tasty.
You seem like a very classy nice guy, very passionate about food too, I subscribed and I'm looking forward to see more of your videos.
Thank you! I really appreciate it!
Nice review…u just got a new subscriber!
Thank you! I appreciate it!
The French fries are the same frozen French fries from every Sysco food truck and in every restaurant across the country.
Solid review
Thank you!
That is a phenomenal deal! Great find and happy hunting!
It's definitely a great deal!
There was a Mt. Bellyès Eatery in Kelowna where you could order the Pasta Al Waxman. He was the fat star of King of Kensington.
Interesting!
Came here after your Le Jardinier review and went straight back - I know where I would rather eat for treats.
Fair enough. Thanks for watching!
I'm convinced now that these videos are multi-dimensional. These are not just reviews. It's more like: NYC Culinary Adventures- starring James Andrews
I like that description! Thank you for the nice words!
I just found your channel. Puhhhhhhlleeeeez take me with you on your next adventure!
Welcome! I hope you enjoy my videos!
Great video as always. You should check out JeJu Noodle bar. Awesome food and not ridiculously priced for a Michelin Starred NYC establishment.
Thank you so much! Yeah, I've been to JeJu once and really enjoyed it. I do plan to make a video there sometime, but it's one of those spots that are difficult to get a reservation.
Take a drink every time he looks at the camera to nod and smile
wow i am liking this one dude....NICE!
Yeah, it's an awesome deal!
Do you have to eat the whole plate before they can refill the steak or can you ignore the other stuff and just focus on the steak?
I feel like you have to at least finish the majority of the food, but I'm not positive.
Gotta love the SKX
It's a classic watch!
James did you ask what grade the steak was? USDA Choice or USDA Prime?? Thanks
I'm not sure what grade it was, but it probably wasn't prime.
James..It would be great to find a Kosher steak house with the same offer. If you can find one in NYC, i'll be forever grateful. Keep up your labor of love.
Thank you!
The fries at Skirt look really good.
The salad looks like it was a bit soggy. I'm curious on what you thought the grade of steak you ate was - choice? select? The 2nd and 3rd servings definitely looked better as it appears they had just been cooked. Was it grilled or cooked in a skillet?
Eat there and find out yourself
It's hard to say what kind of grade it was, but it did taste good and that's what counts for me.
i just sub'ed. keep em comming
Thank you! I really appreciate it!
Do you know how the steaks are cooked? Are they cooked in vegetable/seed oils? Thanks!
Sorry, I wish I knew.
You went on Friday?
I was in Manhattan on Friday we could have hooked up!
I get down there occasionally
I live outside of Albany but NYC is where I grew up
Nice! Yeah, I was in Midtown that day so it felt like the perfect restaurant to go to.
Another place across GWB you can try is Meson Madrid.
Thanks for the recommendation!
Great job great deal I'll try. I did try a Korean burger at Nowan with honey garlic tots and goguma pie. It's real good
Thank you! I've heard a ton of great things about Nowon. It's definitely a restaurant that I plan to visit soon.
@@Jamesnu I guy I met at Nowan just went to Saga he's the 2nd person who told me about this I have to try
@@RR-fg2rl I've heard great things about Saga too!
I am a pretty big dude and I am very full after about 14$ worth of ribeye from my local grocery store - that's roughly 1.5 lbs of ribeye last I checked, and that's only eating a little bit of bread on the side, the rest is pure steak.
You'd need to eat ~ 3x as much steak as me in a single sitting before you broke even - counting tip and taxes, probably more like 4x as much steak.
So yeah unless your appetite is huge, like 6000 calories in one sitting huge, just get your own steak from the grocery store lol.
That's true, but I like the restaurant experience and not having to cook and clean everything myself.
its very much a lazy or kind of not wanting to cook thing when you go to restaurants and keep in mind your time is money so you need to factor that in too
The video was just the right length. Not too long or too short. How I like to watch my videos. You got a very nice voice, unlike some RUclipsrs who are a bit overbearing or loud and obnoxious. Your voice is easy on the ears and very pleasant sounding. ☺️ I love your narration too. Editing was also good. But it's your face I love the most. 😍 Handsome and very boyish. 😚 Yum. 😋 Definitely something nice to look at and enjoy, if I had you as my lunch or dinner guest or companion. 👬 I like to look at something interesting while I eat. 👀 No judgement on my part on whatever or how much you ate, long as you enjoyed yourself. Besides I'm a very slow eater and I like to take my time. Keep up the great work on your videos and it's always nice to see you pop up on my timeline with new videos. 👍 I'm definitely a fan, James. 🤩
Thank you!
The best way to eat this meal, eat as much steak as your stomach can take, then some fries. Then eat your salad last. Salad is a roughage which will help break down all foods consumed prior. Americans eat salad in the incorrect order. Eating your salad first will just take up some space in your stomach, and you won't eat as much of your protein or sides.
That's an interesting eating strategy. I'll keep that in mind next time.
If I were a much younger man this would be my “go-to” place. A true carnivore’s delight.
Absolutely!
Very nice Seiko SKX009 you got there on your wrist.
Thank you!
Is there a time limit? Most places say like 2-3 hours from when you are seated.
As far as I know there's no time limit.
Awesome, you can really take your time and enjoy till your belly is full.@@Jamesnu
What kinda watch you rockin?
That was the Seiko SKX 009. I love that watch!
wow thats an insane deal. need this in chicago
Absolutely! It would be perfect in Chicago!
Nice SKX009, I have the same watch.
Thank you! It's my favorite watch that I own.
Okay, Im from Costa Rica and Im very interested going to NYC, specially restaurants and food in general
I would definitely recommend traveling here. The food is amazing!
I'd be full after one serving!! Looks so delicious!! Lol!
I know what you mean. Even one serving is pretty sizeable.
@@Jamesnu I'm a small person! Lol!! Petite! But I love a good steak!! 🙂
I would love this, but I am wondering what quality ribeye they are getting to make this deal profitable? I assume the average order ends up being something like 2.5 steaks.
Yeah, it definitely wasn't some fancy dry aged beef, but it was still pretty good and satisfying. I bet the restaurant is also counting on people to order beverages where there's a good profit margin.
The way myself and other New Yorkers I know eat, they will definitely be out of business in no time lol
Haha!
I'm movin' to New York!
There's definitely a lot of great food here!
Have you tried I SODI yet? It's on Bleeker St. ..I think it's well worth a review
Not yet, but it's a restaurant that I'll go to in the future and I'll definitely make a video about it.
@@Jamesnu I think you'll love it.. I'll keep an eye out for your review. I agree with your review on Katz's..They're the bomb lol
how much tips do we need to paid if we are having all you can eat?
I just tipped the standard 20 percent, but I guess if you spend a long time eating, then maybe a little more if the service was good.
Wow! I could not eat that much ... congratulations.
Thank you! I was hungry!
That is actually a good price in New York. Just about most places !
Absolutely!
Do you have to finish all three to get more steak?
I'm not sure, but you probably have to finish at least a good part of it.
I now wish I lived, or least worked, in NYC!! 😄
I know what you mean. It's a great steak deal for sure!
Went with my friends. Fries were quick to be refilled, but salads took pretty long. And we only got two refills of a minimal amount of steak over two hours upon countless requests. Will not go back.
I'm sorry to hear that. I've heard others mention the slow service as well.
Another great review James. I might snack in a tube of Dijon if I attend. Love watching your dining experiences . Ever think about exploring the chic chic side of things like , Odeon, or Balthazar ? I think you have done 11 Madison already . I have no interest in its current state.
Thank you! Yeah, I definitely plan to go to Balthazar sometime and when I do, I will definitely make a video about it.
i think rodizio are a better deal at the same price but more variety but u have to admit for NYC this is a steal
I think you're right. It's definitely a place that I will visit in the future.
If the steak is seriously served hot that way, I'm coming on Amtrak from PA after holidays.
It's pretty tasty steak!
Unlimited ribeye, I can only eat one! Two is asking for a stomach ache! Fries-you should not eat more than a fist sized portion once a day. I hate the fries at 90%>or more more of restos. Buffets tend to be the worst dining experiences. I ate once at Buffet des Continentes-don't think I'll ever go back. Past teen years, quality counts more.
I know what you mean about buffets. They may be nice for value, but the food is typically not the greatest.
I might need to go here
It's worth checking out!
Went last night with friends for her birthday it was great
Nice! I'm happy to hear that!
My tummy was growling with envy from the other side of border...Canada.
Haha! Nice!
😂 Hahaha!! Ok, ok,!!! Three orders of steak!! Ok, ok! Wow!! The first for me was enough!!! I laugh!! Now see, for me, I would have taken that back to my family's home there! And that would have been it!😅 But you a had a third order!!! Oh no, I hope ypur stomach is ok!!😅😅😅 Well, anyway, that salad looks good! I probably would have asked for a little more dressing.😅 Thank you for sharing a cool restaurant scene!!😅😊
Thanks for watching! Yeah, I was pretty stuffed by the end of my lunch. It was delicious!
@@Jamesnu 😂 Hahaha I hear you!! Well, Happy New Years to you and be safe celebrating there in New York!! ☺
@@LMays-cu2hp Thank you! Happy New Year to you as well!
