Price: Expensive
• Steakhouse • New Brunswick
Booked 37 times today
Steakhouse 85 is a 21st century rendition of the classic American Steakhouse. The menu at Steakhouse 85 is comprised of fresh and inspiring modern day interpretations of classic American cuisine, served alongside the traditional steakhouse classics we all know and love. The back bone of our menu is without a doubt our beef. Our mouth watering dry aged steaks are rubbed with a simple yet luscious combination of sea salt, black pepper and fresh herbs. They are seared on a 1200 degree cast iron grill and then broiled to your liking. Paired with a large classically designed bar, complete with savvy cocktails and a Wine Spectator award winning wine list, this steakhouse is sure to please.Wine Spectator Award of ExcellenceOfficial Steakhouse of Rutgers Athletics

    Nobu Downtown made our one-year anniversary truly unforgettable! From the moment we walked in, we felt like VIPs. To our delight, we were seated at the same cozy corner table where we celebrated our first date exactly one year ago—such a thoughtful touch! The food was nothing short of spectacular. We kicked things off with the yellowtail sashimi, which was incredibly fresh and flavorful. The crispy rice with tuna was a delightful surprise—crispy on the outside, perfectly tender on the inside. The lobster tempura was a showstopper, and the tuna tacos were bursting with flavor. The beef tenderloin in anticucho sauce was cooked to perfection and melted in our mouths. To top it all off, we indulged in the bento box for dessert, which was a heavenly ending to our meal. Throughout the evening, we sipped on lychee martinis, which perfectly complemented our dishes. The ambiance, service, and every bite were absolutely perfect. Thank you, Nobu Downtown, for making our anniversary so special! We can't wait to return!
