id=\"Keens_Steakhouse_Dinner_Inside_a_Living_Museum\"><\/span>Keens Steakhouse: Dinner Inside a Living Museum<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Some tables come with bread; at Keens they come with a hundred and forty years of New York hanging overhead. This Herald Square landmark has fed the city since 1885, and dinner here still feels like being admitted somewhere \u2014 past the pipe-lined ceilings, into rooms where the Gilded Age never quite ended.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"History\"><\/span>History<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Keens began as the dining room of a theater-district social circle and outlived the entire district around it. Its pipe club counted Babe Ruth, Theodore Roosevelt and Albert Einstein among tens of thousands of members whose churchwarden pipes still cover the ceilings. Women were famously barred until Lillie Langtry took the house to court in 1905 and won; the playbill Abraham Lincoln held the night of his assassination hangs upstairs. The James Beard Foundation crowned it an American Classic.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_to_Order\"><\/span>What to Order<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The legendary mutton chop \u2014 in truth a towering saddle of lamb \u2014 has been the house signature for over a century and arrives like a monument. The dry-aged porterhouse for two is the celebratory alternative, prime rib the Sunday-best classic, Dover sole the graceful outlier. Begin with oysters, finish with the deep scotch list and let the evening stretch.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Space\"><\/span>The Space<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>A sequence of intimate, wood-dark rooms \u2014 Lincoln, Bull Moose, Lambs \u2014 each papered with portraits, playbills and artifacts, all beneath ceilings tiled in clay pipes. White tablecloths, low light and unhurried service complete a room that no designer could replicate, because it was never designed \u2014 it accumulated.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Who_Its_For\"><\/span>Who It&#8217;s For<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Anniversaries, milestone birthdays, closing celebrations and any dinner meant to be remembered. Bring visiting parents, a serious date or anyone who believes a restaurant can be a piece of history you can taste.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Good_to_Know\"><\/span>Good to Know<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong>How far ahead should I book?<\/strong> Several days minimum for prime evening tables; weeks for large parties in the historic rooms.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mutton chop or porterhouse?<\/strong> The chop is richer and gamier, a once-in-a-lifetime signature; the dry-aged porterhouse is pure classic steakhouse. Ideally, come twice.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Can dinner be split for two?<\/strong> Yes \u2014 the chop and porterhouse are portioned for sharing, and the kitchen splits gracefully.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Is it stuffy?<\/strong> Not at all \u2014 reverent but warm, with servers who enjoy telling the house stories if you ask.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What should non-meat eaters order?<\/strong> Dover sole is a serious dish in its own right, and the appetizers and sides assemble a fine meal.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-group\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Opening_hours\"><\/span>Opening hours<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\">\n<table class=\"has-fixed-layout\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<th>Day<\/th>\n<th>Hours<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Monday<\/td>\n<td>11:45\u201322:30<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Tuesday<\/td>\n<td>11:45\u201322:30<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Wednesday<\/td>\n<td>11:45\u201322:30<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Thursday<\/td>\n<td>11:45\u201322:30<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Friday<\/td>\n<td>11:45\u201322:30<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Saturday<\/td>\n<td>17:00\u201322:30<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Sunday<\/td>\n<td>17:00\u201321:30<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<section id=\"entity-gallery\" class=\"padrino-entity-gallery\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Photos\"><\/span>Photos<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.manhattanka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/61\/2026\/06\/keens-steakhouse-manhattan-1.jpg\" alt=\"Keens Steakhouse\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.manhattanka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/61\/2026\/06\/keens-steakhouse-manhattan-2.jpg\" alt=\"Keens Steakhouse\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.manhattanka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/61\/2026\/06\/keens-steakhouse-manhattan-3.jpg\" alt=\"Keens Steakhouse\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.manhattanka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/61\/2026\/06\/keens-steakhouse-manhattan-4.jpg\" alt=\"Keens Steakhouse\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.manhattanka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/61\/2026\/06\/keens-steakhouse-manhattan-5.jpg\" alt=\"Keens Steakhouse\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.manhattanka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/61\/2026\/06\/keens-steakhouse-manhattan-6.jpg\" alt=\"Keens Steakhouse\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n<details>\n<summary>Show 3 more photos<\/summary>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.manhattanka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/61\/2026\/06\/keens-steakhouse-manhattan-7.jpg\" alt=\"Keens Steakhouse\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.manhattanka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/61\/2026\/06\/keens-steakhouse-manhattan-8.jpg\" alt=\"Keens Steakhouse\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.manhattanka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/61\/2026\/06\/keens-steakhouse-manhattan-9.jpg\" alt=\"Keens Steakhouse\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n<\/details>\n<\/section>\n<div id=\"comments\" class=\"comments-area wp-block-group\">\n<h2 class=\"comments-title\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Visitor_reviews\"><\/span>Visitor reviews<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<ol class=\"comment-list\">\n<li id=\"comment-padrino-0\" class=\"comment odd alt thread-odd thread-alt depth-1\">\n<article id=\"div-comment-padrino-0\" class=\"comment-body\">\n<footer class=\"comment-meta\">\n<div class=\"comment-author vcard\">\n<b class=\"fn\"><span>Nyanka Kizzy<\/span><\/b>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"comment-metadata\">\n11 June 2026<br \/>\n \u00b7 <span>\u2605 10.0\/10<\/span>\n<\/div>\n<\/footer>\n<div class=\"comment-content\">\n<p>Went to lunch alone and was greeted with great enthusiasm.
