When a steakhouse opens in Brooklyn, people notice.

DeStefano's Steakhouse could do just that.

The reviews are in and this is what the diners have said

Yelp review 5/2/2012

Every now and then one must submit to the carnivorous beast that resides within and give in to the cravings..... Will chicken or pork suffice you ask? NO, only beef will do, more specifically STEAK!!

After reading all the positive reviews on yelp, I convinced my friend to join me for a night of overindulgence of red meat..
We started the night off with two glasses of sangria and an order of the short rib rolls. If shepherds pie were to hook up with an eggroll their offspring would be these tasty little buggers.
As our main course we decided to share the 40 oz Porterhouse steak for 2. It was absolutely DELICIOUS!! Hands down one of the best steaks I've ever had in my life thus far... Perfectly cooked medium rare with hardly any visible fat. For sides our waiter recommended sautéed spinach and the maple glazed carrots. Gotta say she definitely knew what she was talking about, both were delicious and paired well with the cut of meat that we ordered.

I have absolutely nothing negative to say about this establishment. Besides the amazing food, the staff made us feel like we were right at home. The family photos that line the walks of the dinning area added a nice touch and made you feel like you were having dinner at a friends house (minus the bill of course). I would recommend this place to anyone in search of a good steak.

I came here with my husband to celebrate my birthday a few months ago. The service was impeccable and the food was simply amazing.

We ordered an appetizer to share and both had the rib eye. Oh my gosh, it is so tender, delicious and full of flavor.

I love the ambiance of DeStefano, it's quiet and intimate. I can't wait to go back.

Peter Luger has a major competition

OpenTable Diner review 07/13/2011

This is without a doubt one of the best steak experiences I've had for a very long time. I believe a steakhouse is always measured by the Porterhouse, which is exactly what we had. The thick cut was juicy, flavorful, savory, with just the right amount of spices. They did a heck of a job dry-aging the beef, which reminded us how simple yet sophisticated a porterhouse should be. My fiancee is not a typical steak/meat lover, and even she gave numerous praises during and after the meal. They also hit it out of the park with the French onion soup. The abundances of gruyère caught me off guard because I simply didn't expect an Italian steakhouse to be so good with this French classic. The service was excellent as well. Nothing to complain.

Nothing Better!!!

I have been to many steakhouses over the years and Destefano's in absolutely the best! From the owners chatting us up about the family history down to the wait staff explaining every dish in detail. Destefano's is a warm old fashion steakhouse. Oh I forgot to mention the succulent filet mignon that I had...to die for!!!! Cut like butter, literally because I used a butter knife. My friend had the veal chop, my first time tasting veal that also was excellent. I plan to try everything on their menu as I will be going back until I do :)

Traditional Italian Steakhouse

OpenTable Diner review 07/12/2011

A family owned and run business, the service is impeccable, but never snooty or rushed. The place is small - maybe 40 covers, so reservations are a good idea. The first time here, we got lucky and they could seat 5 of us immediately as they had a reservation no-show. The second time we made a reservation. The waitress remembered us and most of our order. It felt like coming home.The food is very, very good. The pear and arugula salad is worth the trip on its own. The steaks, crab cakes, veal chop, and lobster ravioli were all better than expected - and we expected alot.

Skip Peter Luger's and go here instead.
