Luger Schmuger....what about Bryant & Cooper in LI

[Superflytritone]

Have anybody been to Bryant & Cooper in Long Island? I have not had a bad meal there ever, which I cannot say about Peter Luger. Any comments?

[Jason Perlow]

Its a respectable steak place. I've eaten there a few times but their beef isn't as good as Luger's. Their sides are pretty good.

I've heard good things about Rothman's but I've never been.

I remember being disappointed at Rothman's. The money would have been better spent at Luger's. Haven't been to B&C.

Is that Rothmanns in Midtown Manhattan, or are we talking about somewhere on LI?

B&C is very good.

How does it compare with PL you ask? No way I'm going near that.

I haven't been to Bryant and Cooper in quite some time but I'd have to say based on past experience, its like comparing apples(PL) to amateur apples, IYKWIM.

Are the three brothers (we used to call them the three peacocks) still strutting around the floor?

[Jason Perlow]

I will say this about Bryant & Coopers, their parking lot is really annoying.

I vastly preferred the restaurant they replaced at that location, Manero's, although the last time I ate there I was probably like 10.

I was referring to the one on Northern Blvd., near Oyster Bay, LI.

I like Bryant & Cooper, but usually when we go to steak places, I get the lamb chops or lobster. Jason's grandfather likes to go to North Shore Steak House in Great Neck, which is a terrific all around restaurant, great service and they know how to treat a customer, have a well-rounded menu and bartenders with heavy hands. They also do the whole ceasar salad at the table thing, which is fun.

[Jason Perlow]

North Shore steakhouse also has VERY skilled bartenders who are liberal with the booze and know how to make a killer bloody mary.

[bigbear]

... and know how to make a killer bloody mary.

Ahhhh..... nutritional. Celery?

The way it's supposed to be done, I might add. Do they use a raw egg or one that's been boiled for a minute or so?

[Rachel Perlow]

I don't know. Anyone?
