Excellent Service & Food

by VegasGal

This restuarant offered great food at a decent price. The portions were overwhelming, but everything was incredible. Even my date mentioned that the water even tasted great. I will definately treat myself to eating there again!! The staff were extremely attentive and pleasant.

• Pros: Great atmosphere and friendly service
• Cons: None that I remember

New York, New York Casino is deteriorating rapidly and no where inside its massive carcass is this more evident than at its flagship restaurant "Gallagher's Steakhouse". After prompt seating the "service" was non existent. After 20 minutes of futile attempts to even be acknowledged by our waiter we left promptly, notifying an assistant manager who feigned interest for about 30 seconds, doing absolutely nothing to explain or rectify the problem. Steer (pardon the pun) way clear of this East-coast transplant.

• Pros: Easy to get a table (Now I know why) None others.
• Cons: Service, Table Configuration, Management, Location

Grossly overpriced, insulting staff, poor food

by jb713

Looked good, seated quickly without a reservation (turns out there is a reason for that) but the tables are poorly arranged making for seating more suitable to a greasy spoon than a fine dining establishment.

Prices are high but they make that clear by posting the menu outside. The prices are so high that it is clearthe restaurant wants to be compared to the finest restaurants.

Waiter was insulting but I let that slide as I really wanted to have a good time, but he then served the lamb raw (not undercooked but cold and raw) and the salmon over cooked (which I actually like but not acceptable). He then insulted us when I called him over. Before I said anything he said "Is the lamb a little undercooked for you" (understand that it was clearly raw). Insults continued but damn I wanted a nice evening so tried to make the best of it. All insults were done with a smile. No apology for the poor food and at one point the waiter suggested we would still have to pay for the lamb. We did end up paying for what we had eaten.

Not all the staff was as bad although the bar tender was rather short with me when I asked a question. To make it clear we were dressed OK (I didn't have my tux on but neither did anyone else) and were polite, too polite actually, had not been drinking and are naturally a quiet couple.

This is a low class place that laughs at tourists. No self respecting kitchen would serve raw lamb and over cooked salmon. Serious management issues (staff not happy), health issues (serving raw food), Kitchen out of control (two major and obvious errors) and grossly overpriced for the product.

I cannot recommend Gallaghers. There are much better options. My name is Jeff Brown and this was the evening of July 17 2007

• Pros: Location
• Cons: Staff has poor attitude, Kitchen unhealthly
