When a steakhouse opens in Manhattan, no one blinks. When a steakhouse opens in Brooklyn, people notice.
They begin to wonder: Is this the one that will vanquish Peter Luger?
DeStefano's Steakhouse could do just that.
Yelp review 2/14/2013
Amazing steakhouse that I hadn't heard of before yelp offered a deal. Hubby and I came here for a date night and were whisked away inside to what felt like someone's personal dining room. Really cozy atmosphere.
We ordered:
- Short Rib Rolls. (Stewed Short Ribs, julienne carrots & mashed potatoes fried in a crisp thin wrapper for $11). Kind of like large egg rolls filled with braised beef rib and mashed potatoes. They were AWESOME.
- White bean soup. It was the special of the day and full of fresh, hearty ingredients. I loved it.
- 12 oz filet mignon. It was flavored well, high quality meat, and burgandy shallot sauce put it over the top.
Peter Luger's may be more famous, but if you're looking for a place with more variety, better ambiance, and lower cost, DeStefano's has them beat

5 of us dined here on a saturday evening for a birthday celebration. Mid size restaurant with minimal deco, but lots of family and neighborhood pictures on the wall. Is a neighborhood steakhouse. Attentive and friendl service. Short wine list. A la carte menu. We had mignon (8oz or 12 oz), NY Strip, both are great, but the strip has better flavor. you can order the sides in family style to share. The desserts are good, they comp one of them.
Don't pay city prices for steaks, Take the L train, 2 stops from NY. The place is 2 blocks from the station.

Started with the Caesar Salad which was delicious with the whole anchovies on top. Then made our way to the 12oz Filet Mignon and the Chicken Cordon Bleu. The steak was cooked perfectly. The chicken was just ok but I suppose you don't really go to a steakhouse for the chicken. Sides (which you have to order separate from the main dish) were awesome. Service was great. They threw in a little celebratory glass of sambuca for my husband and I upon learning it was our 4 year wedding anniversary. Overall good place for a special occasion.

Recently got a deal on amazon and took my girl out for dinner to check out this place. Staff was friendly, place was clean, and the owner was coming around to greet everyone.
we started with a beet salad and short rib rolls, they were great. Then came the steak 24 oz. Rib eye which excellent. Temperature was right on the money and the meat was very juicy. The only down side to this experience was lack of dessert.
Overall very good experience
