Is NYC's CHEAPEST STEAK its Best Steak? St. Anselm's $29 Butcher Steak
Вставка
- Опубліковано 21 вер 2024
- When it comes to the best steakhouses in New York City, there are loads of legendary options. Keens Steakhouse, Peter Luger Steakhouse, Gallaghers Steakhouse, Spark's Steakhouse, Delmonico's Steakhouse, and Wolfgang's Steakhouse all lay claim to the title of best steak in NYC. But what if I told you the best steak in New York was also one of the cheapest?
When we went to Gallaghers, we reviewed the famous Gallaghers $30 lunch special, which included Gallaghers sliced filet mignon, Gallaghers wedge salad, and Gallaghers New York cheesecake. But while St. Anselm does not offer such a high volume of food as Gallaghers, the famous St. Anselm Butcher's Steak is incredible and arguably the best steak in the USA.
St. Anselm's hanger steak, also known as butcher's steak, is just so incredibly soft, melting in your mouth and cooked with the perfect amount of seasoning and garlic butter. St. Anselm's is absolutely a great value steak and a great budget steak, but unlike diner steaks or casual restaurant steaks, it is a steakhouse that specializes in beef, and St. Anselm's $30 butcher steak is as good as any steak you will ever have! Trust me!

Great shout out to a restaurant that is still trying to keep prices reasonable vs. ripping people off... hopefully they get tons of new customers from this video, the vibe looks terrific too
Great steak, great value - but no sides, no nothing, and clearly overpriced sides on the menu. Not a meal deal, it`s a meat deal. Also, the US flag, or any sign of any patriotism is groovy & radical in NYC.
Yes it was a very good price! Too bad it didn't come with sides, but the steak itself was awesome and absolutely worth $29
Part of the reason why it’s a lower price is because it’s not Manhattan. Location can be a big factor
Doesn't cost much more than a sandwich at Katz's.
I agree you have to walk up to the register bent over backwards haha good though😮
Pastrami sandwich at Katz is around $28 after taxes so yeah, this steak is a solid buy for the money
Haha you're right. Though the Katz's sandwich may be good enough for 2 meals
I prefer the Katz sandwiches over this.
Langer's #19 FTW
I didn’t know such a cut existed, this was interesting. 😃 Thanks for introducing (some of) us to something new! That beef looked incredible.
You have such an amazing attitude towards life and seem like such a kind person! One of my most favourite food review channels on UA-cam. Proud subscriber
Agree 100%!
Thanks for the kind words! Really appreciate the sub!
That hangar steak looked phenomenal and for $29.00????? WOW. That has to be one of the best deals in the country considering the quality. Keep up the great work, my favorite food review channel by far!
I’ve been a Professional Chef for over 25 years, and that is “Rare” 24/7. Now, don’t get me wrong, I only eat steak “Rare” but that is DEFINITELY not Medium Rare! No way! Check your Chefs temperature guide: Rare=125 Center, Medium Rare=130 Center, Medium 135 center, Medium Well-140 center, well done= GO TO McDonalds!🤣
TY
Keep doing what you're doing and you'll have over 100k subscribers in the next year/two. Good looking steak!
I sure hope you're right!
Ive been living in nyc for 8 years now, and
You’re an amazing nyc restaurant guide, the only food channel I subscribed to.
Thanks for your videos
Wow, what a great compliment. Glad my videos have been of help to you!
Butchers Tenderloin aka hanger steak is a great cut.We sell quite a bit of it in our butcher shop.
Has to be peeled and there is a thick nerve that runs through it.
When cut and cooked correctly you can’t beat it.
Great Video 👍
Thanks for sharing some info about hanger steak! Yeah I love it, it's soft like a filet mignon but unlike a filet mignon it's filled with flavor.
that muscle helps the cow breathe, it's attached to its lung. also it's very mineral tasting, like an organ meat, almost with a hint of a liver taste. I freaking love it
St. Anselm is where I go for my birthday every year, phenomenal restaurant and a great wine list to boot! Glad you enjoyed
I just discovered you and I have to say you are one of the best I have ever seen! Keep up the good work and you'll reach a million followers in no time!
Man, I remember you had less than 1000 subscribers fairly recently. Not like few weeks ago recently, but couldn't have been more than 2 years. Eat on and prosper my man!
I only watch 2 food reviewers and he's one of them. Excellent job.
Watch MapleCook
@@Mickcotton I don't think so, troll
MapleCook & UA are both Great Channel’s ✅
honestly though, "the butcher would greedily take for themself" is pretty true as there's only ONE hangar steak per cow.
Hey UA, the crew over here is most appreciative for the RESEARCH you conduct. The "hanger steak" insight was quite simply top-notch. BTW - That steak plate definitely needed an additional accompaniment. Maybe three or four grilled asparagus. Just plopped in the middle of the plate by itself somewhat odd. Many Thanks Yo ! 🔜. 🥩. 💯
Crew?
Love your videos!! Keep up the awesome work!!!
Thanks! I'll try!
Looked amazing!
Will definitely pay them a visit.
Personally, the higher the fat content in the cut, the more I lean towards medium.
I like the fat to be more rendered into the meat and not chew raw fat.
Makes sense. I prefer burgers medium personally over medium rare, as I like their form to be more set, so I definitely see the medium doneness angle!
Wow , nice to see a restaurant that has excellent food and not ripping you off
Great video UA! would love to see you review the mutton chop here
I really enjoyed the one at Keens. Will have to try this one sometime!
I love your videos....I don't know why you don't have a quarter or half million subs...keep up the great work, you will eventually get there
I hope your right! Thanks for the kind words!
I see that spare plate with steak on it!!!!!
This meal looked very delectable. I always look forward to another UA video.
Thanks! I'll keep making vids if people keep enjoying them
I love your videos. Your channel is what UA-cam was originally built upon. Honest content. I truly hope this journey makes you a multi millionaire. I’m a fan. 😎
Good video UA! You are moving up!
Thanks!
Good video!!! Food looked fantastic
It was very nice!
oh my I'm going there should I ever be near enough! Amazing food amazing service! thank you for another great review, UA!
Glad you liked the vid!
I've never been to New York, but if I decide to go sometime, I'll know where to eat.
WoW, everything looked amazing! Need to check it out asap. Thanks again!
Wow I 🥩🇦🇺👍what a gem .looks grate with a open kitchen it seems honest .
And more appealing to the public the down to earth casual diner .
Hanger steak is a classic in France, you can get it from beef or veal, the second being eventually cheaper. Taste great with shallots.
I'll need to try it in France someday!
The Spinach 🥗 is EXACTLY the side dish I wanted you to choose.😊 and to see.
Everything looked great. My MOM used to make potatoes like that with our left over mashed potatoes
Sounds like you had great potatoes growing up!
Awesome video. Definitely need to check this place out. Getting amazing steak for $30 is a steal!
Very good price! One of the best steak deals in the city
I've had the Gallagher's lunch special. I will definitely try this on my next trip to NYC.
Both are great steak deals. Give St. Anselm a try sometime!
Tenderloin is not another word for filet mignon. Thats just the narrow end of the loin. The thick end is called Chateaubriand.
Now that looked amazing UA!! The bark on that steak was yummy can't find that cut of steak in too many places that do it right ! The side dishes were amazing as well so if two people get a hanger steak and split two sides which is more than enough for two people you're in business. I'll be going to Williamsburg my next trip back east !!❤
Yep they're hanger steak is one of the best steaks I've ever had! I think one hanger steak and 2 sides is definitely enough food for two people, but if you both really like meat you both might find the meat portion a tad small.
I had a great Ribeye at The Woods restaurant (when it opened for $34). It's more expensive today. I think you should have your own TV show; I binge watch your food reviews, they're great and funny.
Thanks for the kind words! Yeah it'd be cool to have a TV show, I don't though so this channel will have to suffice
Food reviewers should not have their TV show because there’s restrictions and they have to not be honest so nobody gets mad
Wow ! That steak 😋 was cooked perfectly , exactly the way I like it ! When you said cooked perfect for tenderness , I think you forgot also for flavor , thanks bro for sharing , I didn't know about that cut , I'm a ribeye freak 😜 !!
I agree, I love ribeye but hanger steak is awesome and often overlooked
One of the best steak deals in the country lol, need to get you to Texas, great review again ua
I meant in terms of quality for price, but yes I do need to visit Texas sometime!
Hi UA, If you’re ever in Boston, I’d love to have dinner with you in the North End. There are a lot of great spots that I think you’d enjoy. As a New Jersey native I very much enjoy your videos. I would love to see you review some of the restaurants in Asbury Park, NJ. Thank you for the great channel. Best, Alex
Thanks for the offer! I have never been to Asbury Park before but it's definitely on my list
keep up this amazing work UA, you're a top honest reviewer and I'm sure you'll get to 1M subs soon
That whole meal looked excellent! So, you need to try the mortadella sandwich! I make one very similar at home (I actually paused the video to read it!) But I do mine on toast, more like a grilled cheese. Next time you're in Flushing, I'll make you one! As for the steak, that looked great! Really was cooked perfectly, and both side dishes looked great. I agree that both really creamy spinach, and crispy have their place. I think I'd love these! I actually deep fry Brussels Sprout leaves as a snack lol... Anyway, now I'm rambling. Another great review sir!
Yeah I wound up googling mortadella sandwich and it sounds awesome. Agree on all fronts as usual regarding your steak and sides takes. Creamy spinach is nice but I like the more crispy leafy spinach dishes too!
My years of french class hurts hearing him say gratin. I should sound like Gra tan
Looks amazing! But I will say that steak was definitely full rare...but no complaints here!!!🥩🥩🥩
I would say more medium rare but closer to the the rare end
@@uaeats Fair enough
Come to Dallas and review some restaurants here
That steak is rare. It isn't medium rare. I can tell it was great though.
Check pronunciation of "gratin.";) Thanks for the great look at these restaurants !
I have to go there. I so appreciate your enthusiasm. BTW, smoother, not more smooth.
You’re killing with these videos!
Thanks!
They sell roast partridge. Where does one 'find' a partridge farm in NYC lol?
good place and i think nice people as well for you.Another great video from you to us...THANK YOU Big Dog!
Yeah very nice of them to gift me a free side!
"a little more patriotic than I'd expect" (for williamsburg, brooklyn) - lmao YES!!
As for the steak... Hangar steak is my fav for steak and eggs. very flavorful and tender. gunna have to go here for brunch/lunch - Ive only been here once for dinner. So ill have to check it out for lunch. I saw menu said steak and eggs, so green light for that - I live on the complete opposite side of Brooklyn, near mill basin so it's a troop
This has to be one of my top videos from you! So evident how much you enjoyed the meal 😅
Glad you liked the vid! Yes it was very tasty!
Well I learned something new today. Can't wait to try hanger steak when I come across it next.
looks great, on my list of places to eat at. keep it up UA!
Glad you liked the vid!
Really nice spot. I know you don't really drink, but Spuyten Duyvil next door is a good spot for wacky, rare beers.
Definetly on my bucket list. Thanks UA.
Glad I was of assistance!
Love the little intro about "Butcher steak" in the beginning. EZ sub.
love the food vlog ua. 👍
Glad you enjoyed it!
I’ve come to absolutely love your videos.
Looks so amazing
Very tasty!
Thanks again UA on a great review! The other Steak Houses that you have reviewed seem overpriced, uncomfortable and a bit pompous. This place seems more Chill, and it happens to have great food! I would check it out next time in Brooklyn……Cheers!
It was definitely more casual of an atmosphere. I liked it!
Hanger steak is my favorite cut of steak. I purchase it online, and it comes frozen to my front door.
Wow that steak looked awesome! You mentioned in the review returning to try more of the menu and I hope you do more reviews of this restaurant!
I may have to do that! I wanna try their ribeye
Cut the music (while you're talking).
Wow. You made the reason for me to visit Williamsburg. Thank you!
It's worth a visit. Lots of great food there!
Looking at the menu right now....the NY strip is 70 bucks!!!!
One of my favorite cuts too. For best results cut hanger steaks against the grain.
Woof! Woof! That bark looked amazing. You mopped that plate. Delicious review. 👍
It was an awesome steak all around!
Another great one 🍻🍻
i def appreciate and enjoy the videos man
Glad you enjoy my vids!
"Something called a Mortadella sandwich"
That was just adorable.
mr steak is back and ill be eating chicken thighs brazed in a homemade peanut sauce whilst watching. perfect timing.
Wow that sounds delicious!
Fantastic review!
Thanks!
Awesome job!! Can you do Korean food review also. Keep up the great job!
It's on my list for sure!
this deserves more views
Great video👏
After watching the clip, I did try the 3 exact orders that he had ordered. To me, the steak is perfect cook but a little chewy. The cream spinach is ok but not like WoW. I like the pan fried mashed potatoes but too salty for me. The service and atmosphere is wonderful!
Overall, not even one order that makes me to come back. Nonetheless, I still enjoy watching UA EAT one in a while!
You do some great work
I have been there 3 times. I will be returning. However know that by the time you have a few beers and the spinach and the potatoes and desert and coffee you are looking at at least $75 a person. Its worth it though. Steak and service are on point. One day I'll just eat the steak and no sides and no beer and I will RULE....LOL
I've been eating a carnivore diet for the last 2 years and living in the NYC metro area I thought I would try this cut for the first time. Price wise its less than other cuts, however the $29 cut I got was mayble 6-8 ozs. It was somewhat tender, it wasn't tough at all. It seems they marinate it and add some sort of vegetable spice to it. I eat pretty much the same foods every day; ground beef, ribye, NY Strip and eggs. This steak didn't set well in my stomach (if you know what I mean) and I'm attributing it to the whatever was in the marinate. I wouldn't give this steak high marks. My wife was with me, she is not carnivore and didn't have the same digestive issues I had. She had the same cut, but with eggs which was maybe 3-4 oz of steak (for $27). She had no issues, but said our steak at home from the local market is much better. Oh, she did love the pan-fried mash which I tried and have to agree.
Lol 😂
Great vlog UA!
Thanks!
the atmosphere looks pretty cool in there too Peter Luger’s looks drab
Maybe I’m the only one but I prefer the texture, color and taste of Medium Well
That steak 🥩 looked great, the steak appears to be a great value, a fantastic review also.
Glad you liked the vid!
That crust looks amazing while still having a perfect interior. That has to be some high heat!
It was an awesome steak!
great review
10:23 you still have a plate full of steak on the top right corner :0)
Oops! You got me. Editing blunder
Hi UA! Great review! Just wanted to mention, gratin is spoken as gratan. I think it's french. We learn something new everyday. Keep on!
My bad. Thanks for clarifying!
rib eye by the once: check please, oh, say "hanger steak" again, didn't hear it the 10th time
Awesome!
god dammit, this is coming out 30min too late for me to have ultimate munchies experience with ur new video :----D My food is rdy in 20min and im so wasted. anygays, love to watch ur old vids also in this mental of state. :D
I think ill start from chopped cheese vid and making my way from there, so far as i stay awake.
timing is crucial when it comes to stoned drunk eating and watching something. im right on schedule today
@@tested123 yes it its, but its also 1.20 at night where i live.
Ill Will enjoy this video maybe tomorrow.
Haha, hope you were able to rewatch it when you were craving good food again
Hanger steak if made correctly is the best cut. St. Anselm's clearly did it right. Congrats, I think you found the holy grail.
That steak was perfectly cooked it looks amazing
Interesting cut- does look a tad bit rare-
Kind of reminds me of Tri tip out in California- great sear and a nice medium rare - and can season tri tip well- hanger and tri tip are underrated!
I want to fly out there and eat right now.
It's very tasty!
I've never tried hanger steak. Looks good.
what kinda restaurant plays old-timey music?
Gratin rhymes with sunTAN.
