A solid diner-style experience. The term “steakhouse” is a little misleading: this is definitely a hedge fund manager’s vision of an urban diner. The food is decent, the prices are good, the staff are nice, and there’s a lot of variety. But if you’re expecting the steakhouse experience, or a lot of steak-related options, this is not that. We came here for dinner and then breakfast the next day— an overall solid, affordable spot.
I don't know how good of a steakhouse Tad is, but it's definitely a wonderful diner for breakfast! I ordered a simple two-egg breakfast with some coffee and a beer patty; wanted to try at least some of that steak. The eggs were fluffy, the toast was fresh, and the patty was juicy. All in all, a proper breakfast. They also have a cocktail bar with plenty of options; had it not been the early morning I'd have loved to try it out. Pretty solid diner, all things considered.
Good enough that we returned for breakfast the day after having lunch. My sister said the coffee wasn’t good. Coffee good enough for me and so was the food. “Famous” steak dinner for lunch and then breakfast “San Francisco Omelette”. Good location convenient to Union Square. I’d have rated 4-star but for the coffee.
Essentially order at the counter, pay, grab a table. I don't tip before the event so that was $0. Tip left on the way out due to the steak being excellently cooked - pictured is the Tad's Famous Steak - cooked rare. Very well priced wine - $6/glass was surprisingly good. Salad was fresh - balsamic dressing chosen, and a good sized serve.
Friendly speedy service, competitively priced. Ordered the Tads Special steak, thought it could have had more seasoning to it but otherwise good. Real mashed potatoes which was a nice surprise. Wings were delicious as well. Short glass mango Margarita was tasty.
Not too far from Union Square, it's a good place cafeteria-style for a casual bite. You order and pay at the front and then the food is brought to your table. We went there to have breakfast. It is a bit pricey but since the portions are large, you can totally share. We had the Rooster omelette which comes with hash brown potatoes and two toasts and some garlic bread as a side dish. The omelette was absolutely delicious and the hash browns were very crispy. Unfortunately, the garlic bread was insipid and had no taste of garlic. Nevertheless, I'd come again.
American steakhouse. I visited this restaurant foe the first time in maybe in ten years. It still seemed popular and famous as it had been before. I think they serves 'real' American steaks. Some people may prefer tenderer and fattier beef like Japanese quality wagyu beef. But if you like me prefer a steak of 'real' meat, I think you will be satisfied with their dishes. By the way, this is a cafeteria style restaurant in spite of being a steakhouse.
Last time I ate here it was in a different location and possibly under different management. This location is right next to a parking garage which is really convenient. The atmosphere is really nice and cozy. When you walk in you see them grilling on the left. You place your order upfront all payments accepted. They have either the ny strip or ribeye. They have chicken too. The ordering process is efficient. Place your order which comes with two sides of your choice, pay and be provided a numbered pager and tray with anything that's already ready. Now choose your seat and a server will bring your meal to your table. So in that aspect it's a good system. Now where it falls short... let's start by saying I am really accustomed to Tads Steakhouse since I was a child. Growing up we had 3 in NYC! In which I've dined at all of them over the years. Sadly, that era has come to an end and they are no more . Now, when they served you a steak they would top it with an au just sauce no steak sauce needed and MELTED butter! But here, there is no au jus sauce and definitely no melted butter blasphemous lol. They do however offer regular butter and garlic butter to top the steak. Also, NYC Tad's provides you with a long buttery piece of garlic bread which had the right amount of salted butter flavor. This place gives you "garlic" bread which seems to lack any real garlic butter flavor... and let me reiterate, NO MELTED BUTTER to pour over it... *sigh* lmao... I don't know.. is it too hard to create a nice natural sauce topping from beef juice? Is it too hard to melt butter and have it on the side in case others may like it drizzled on their steak and/or bread. Perhaps I'm a spoiled New Yorker but I believe others would also enjoy this and this spot would be even better than it is now! Parking: Garage right next door
Their jalapeño wings are delicious! I always get the sautéed spinach also. Their omelet is super fulfilling. I feel like everything on their menu is good.
The new Tad's location on Eddy is a huge improvement. Sleek and modern with a sports bar atmosphere 5 large tvs and some outdoor seating covered with heaters. The bar itself is small. You still order in a line-up, food is brought to uour table. Definitely a good place for large groups. The food is good, about what you'd expect, a decent value for the area. My hamburger patty was frozen but with good char grilled flavor, hash browns frozen but made with real butter, sour dough toast wasn't as fresh as it should be. If you want better diner food, the Pinecrest Diner nearby is better but a little bit in pricier. I would still recommend both. Service was excellent. New ownership and/or management is clearly evident.
