Nusr-et Steakhouse New York - Crossing

I?m a big fan of Nusret?s, been twice to the original place in Etiler Turkey. The Nusret burger is a must try, one of the favorites I ever had, simple but savory!

Nusr-Et Boston has extraordinary interiors, high ceilings, unique restrooms with pheasants on glass panelled doors. However, I found the menu prices high and the service to be middling. There is a mandatory gratuity of 18%, regardless of the size of the party. Within earshot, a server said to another employee that 18% is for average service, after picking up my final credit card receipt that showed I didn't add any additional tip. I had the Nusr-Et Salad which was appropriately-sized for the $25 charge. The salad is flavorful and has a good crunch with the pomegranate seeds and nuts. The menu picture shows the salad as piled high and with large cubes of cheese. The salad I got didn't have much cheese and looked simpler than the menu photo. The cheeseburger was basic-tasting. The bathroom is spectacular. This visit was probably a one-time occasion for me.

Had my graduation dinner here. The venue is really trendy and nice fun. Food was amazing and servers were helpful and really made the experience special.

Average is an overstatement ? As a guide who?s been to some of the top restaurants in multiple countries, I can assure you that this meal ?spaghetti?, is one of the most tasteless pieces of meat I?ve ever had. And for the price you pay for this meal, you can certainly have an outstanding experience at a fine dining restaurant. I am truly disappointed by the quality and the prices set up. It is incredible to sit down at the table and be surprised by the numbers you are seeing, with some steaks hitting over 1000 USD. Drinks menu is rather expensive too. If I am looking for a good steak and good cocktails for a reasonable price, I?d surely look elsewhere. Gotta give it to the staff though for good service. I do not recommend this restaurant

I ordered a Nusr-Et burger for the main course, and baklava and tea for dessert. The quality of the burger was good (7 out of 10 . Baklava was Perfect !!!! However the money you will be paying is not worth the experience you are going to get. Recommend this place for once or twice a year only.
