"Peter Luger's Steakhouse has been winning the Zagat's Best Steakhouse of New York for so long (16 years running) that it's time to retire the award. It'll be like the Cy Young award in baseball: good candidates will win, but will never be as good as the...."

"If imitation is indeed flattery, then Peter Luger Steak House has cause to blush for the next 120 years. But not to gloat, and not to coast, and I’m convinced that this venerated and venerable New York institution is doing some of both...."
