    What a great experience! Started the meal with lobster knuckles, calamari salad and Parker rolls. All were delicious. The lobster knuckles were loaded with herbed butter, the salad had tender calamari and I nice mix of greens. The Parker rolls were warm and buttery. Then came the 5 different varieties of oysters. Four were east coast, one was west coast. All fresh and clean. They were some of the best I ever had. I can’t wait to go back for more! Service was fantastic, too.

    BONDST was one of the most incredible meals I've ever had. I had two of the Shishito Pepper Margaritas which had the perfect spice level. They were so good. I split with my daughter the Wagyu Carpaccio, Toro Tartare with Caviar, Seared Salmon sushi roll, Spicy Tuna sushi roll, Tuna Tarts, Spicy Shrimp, and the Hot Scallop dish. Seriously incredible. Found out the next day that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce were eating there at the same time too!!! Such a cool spot. The vibes were immaculate and the food was absolutely incredible.

    The dining experience here is nothing short of exceptional, with outstanding service that perfectly complements the superb cuisine. The decor and ambiance transport you to a quintessential steakhouse setting, blending timeless charm with a contemporary twist—exposed brick and a lofty industrial aesthetic set the stage beautifully. The cocktail menu deserves special praise, with the Mezcal Old Fashioned standing out as a true masterpiece—a smoky, nuanced twist on the classic that’s worth savoring. As for the star of the meal, we indulged in the dry-aged New York strip sirloin, expertly prepared to a flawless medium. The steak was a revelation, its tender richness melting like butter with each bite. Though I typically gravitate toward a ribeye, this strip was a compelling choice that did not disappoint. Every detail, from the ambiance to the culinary execution, reflected a thoughtful commitment to quality, making this steakhouse an unforgettable experience.

    Celebrated our 65 wedding anniversary. Have eaten here before. Staff was so kind. Treated us to a glass of champagne. Helped us choose what to order. Shared razor clams, clam chowder, clams and shrimp. All very good. A surprise cheesecake ended our lunch. Would highly recommend.
