Had reservations & arrived on time but had to wait 15 minutes to be seated. The waitress was very good and the selections of salads was just ok as we got the roasted beet salad which was just ok. We got the crabcakes as an appetizer which was delicious. The hard rolls were hot and good. Both couples order the 24 oz bone-in ribeye med-rare. We drank 2 bottles of spring water at $9 a bottle with our meal (which was ridiculous) but had to if you wanted cold water as NY restaurants specialize in tap water(cheap). and one person got 1 mix drink. (Come to Virginia and you get ice water free with every meal) The steaks were for the most part (in the middle) was cooked correctly but a good portion was overcooked. We got the home fries which were very good and the creamed spinach was ok. Walked out with a $464.00 bill!

The Porterhouse for 2 was delicious. Tender and flavorful. Caesar Salad and Creamed Spinach were perfectly prepared. We enjoyed the atmosphere....felt like a smaller family experience, as opposed to some of the larger steakhouses in the area. It depends what kind of mood you are in. We enjoy both types of atmospheres. Out server, Christian, was excellent. Didn't miss anything, while being relaxed and friendly. We will definitely eat here again when in Brooklyn.

This was our first visit to New York and we’ve chosen De Stefanos from the web after good reviews. Food was up to perfection. We ordered ribeye on bone and fillet mignon. Meat was so tender and juicy cooked to perfection. Our waiter: Christian was professional so friendly person. It was an excellent experience in Christmas days. If it happens to visit New York back again I would definitely come back again

If you don’t know about this place then you’re missing something. I bring friends here from out of town and they always leave impressed. The steaks are dry aged and as good as it gets. The way you ordering is the way you get it. The sides are all excellent. The service is top notch and not just because I am a regular. This is a Manhattan caliber restaurant in Williamsburg Brooklyn.
