Recommendations? Start with oysters on half shell, followed by steak

Anywhere in the boroughs or manhattan. Was thinking Peter Luger, but birthday boy is craving some raw oysters. And perhaps a decent beer? Preferably a setting that is not exceedingly extravagant.

What about the most famous of them all?

If you're in Manhattan, the Old Homestead has excellent oysters and excellent steak. In Brooklyn, go to Marlow & Sons for oysters, then go next door to Diner for their grass fed steaks. Had a great NY strip last night.

My last Visit to Old Homestead was over a Year ago....Had Oysters and a Medium Well Ribeye......Almost Crapped my Pants on the Train ride Home...BAD SCENE!!!!!!!!
And 2 others in my party of 6 had the same experience.....
I'm Not telling people to stay away from old homestead......Could've been a bad night.......Just saying, watch out with the Oysters :(

How about oysters and beer and cocktails at Marlow & Sons, walk over to PL for the steak

That is GENIUS.....and then maybe Dressler, for a Peach Parfait and/or glass of St. Germain.....a trifecta, I say. :)
