Gallagher’s Steakhouse NYC

Gallagher's Steakhouse NYC

Gallagher’s Steakhouse NYC located at 228 W & 52nd St is certainly in my opinion, in the top 3 restaurants I have ever had the pleasure to dine in. As you can see from the photo above it was a freezing cold night in the Big Apple & I really needed a good steak dinner.

A week ago I was in North East Brazil & the temerature was 38 degrees celsius. 🙂

This is what you see first

The aged beef at the entrance gives you an idea of what awaits you inside. 🙂

Interesting entrance

Gallagher's Steakhouse NYC

Immediately you know a memorable experience awaits.

Not too crowded

Gallagher's Steakhouse NYC

 The TripAdvisor rating is #35 of 7,468 Restaurants in New York City

A jack Daniels before dinner perhaps?

Only if you insist. 🙂

 For those who like their beef rare, this one could almost walk off the plate. 🙂

Fabulous seafood platter

As good as this looks you just have to order a steak at Gallagher’s. Perhaps it would be good to share it with a friend for an entre.

Gallaghers most distinctive features.

Gallagher's Steakhouse NYC

The flame above the logs pays tribute to our hickory coal grills—unique among all the restaurants in New York as the only way we cook our steak.

The logs echo the bold design of the restaurant’s chandeliers—dating back to 1940s. Crafted from hickory logs notched across each other and suspended from the ceiling, all fourteen chandeliers have been artfully restored and rehung in their original place of honor in the dining room.

Renovated May 2018

Patrick’s Belgian Steakhouse Pattaya

Patrick's Belgian Steakhouse Pattaya

Patrick’s Belgian Steakhouse Pattaya is certainly one of my favourite restaurants. TripAdvisor rating is #22 of 1,025 Restaurants in Pattaya, however in my opinion it is in the top 10.

Perhaps a salad to start with.

Lots of choices at Patrick’s Belgian Steakhouse Pattaya.

The photo does not do it justice.

The Oxtail soup is fantastic, I often drop in and have it for lunch, followed by a waffle of course. 🙂

Of course I sometime have the pancake instead of the waffle. 🙂

They are both delicious.

Without a doubt they serve the best lamb shank in Pattaya, perhaps even the northern hemisphere.

The new decor is attractive & modern. This was at 6.30 pm & I was the only customer. 🙂

In case you were wondering, here’s Patrick.

Early May 2018 they gutted the restaurant.

The finished product is excellent.

Here we are at the old restaurant.

I’m with Greg Clee & Hamish Elton celebrating Hamish’s birthday in 2015. Notice the old fashioned decor?

Can you believe the size of this Tomahawk? 🙂

Patrick’s Belgian Steakhouse Pattaya

A whopping 1.5 kilo, I think Hamish could handle it. 🙂

A terrific dinner with friends.

Another Tuesday night dinner

Half the table ordered the lamb shank. 🙂 From the right we have David Rose, Brendan Tate, Jessica, Hamish Elton, David Herd, Dan Escamilla & last but not least Possum. 🙂

That is a great looking slab of beef.

Patrick’s Belgian Steakhouse Pattaya

You would need a huge appetite to get through that. 🙂

Irish stew was exceptional on October 21 2020

Great value at B250 or $8 USD.

Location

Opposite Mike shopping mall in an arcade opposite the Beefeater.

One final look at the Tuesday special.

Patrick's Belgian Steakhouse Pattaya

Lamb shank (French style) & potato au gratin. I only have one criticism of this fine restaurant, the house wine is far too expensive. Everything else is excellent, many thanks for visiting my Patrick’s Belgian Steakhouse Pattaya photo blog.

Patrick discovers El Mercado

Patrick discovers El Mercado

Here is what Patrick had to say about El Mercado; “Didn’t know where to eat tonight in Bangkok so I asked my good friend David Herd who is an expert in Bangkok restaurants. He suggested El Mercado. Wow, what a surprise. Never saw anything like that in Thailand. All those choices of cheeses, cold cuts, seafood and fish. Many wines as well, but a bit on the expensive side. I enjoyed a mixed platter with cheeses and cold cuts, my wife went for the oysters and seafood dish. All in all a success and very enjoyable. Book in advance, packed all the time. Worth a visit when in Bangkok.”😉😎
