Old world charm. Elderly portly waiters provide excellent (and witty) service. Extensive wine menu. Great steak. The Palm on 2nd Avenue used to be the same but ever since they add waitresses, it isn’t the same any more. Call me sexist all you want, but I prefer portly men.

- Old-Fashioned Wedge (two slices of beefsteak tomato)
- Porterhouse

- Jumbo Asparagus
