Guest Post- Clubhouse

I have been swamped at work the last week or so and sadly have not made it out to eat. Thanks to the readers who have sent me great guest posts and I apologize to those who have been suffering from withdrawal from my combination of sarcasm and kosher food. I will be out to eat soon!

Guest Post:
Well… word on the town is mixed for this little hole in the wall (literally- the restaurant is situated in the original walls of the building – look carefully when you are there and you will see the joints in the brick) just across the street from the famous La Marais steakhouse.  Opened by the same owner, but lacking much of the finesse, atmosphere and service of the former, Clubhouse Café is, well a Café.  The music is loud and usually good (though the night I went it was off for most of the meal and when it was on it was sappy elevator music.)  The menu is very short, pedestrian and unimaginative with a serious lack of variety but every single thing you will order is good.  I had the grilled tuna steak which was fresh, perfectly done and well flavored.  The sliders are always a hit and the salads are crisp and flavorful.  The hangar steak was very well done also.  No quibbles about the taste of the food; It is perfect for grabbing a quick bite if you are in a rush, or can’t get seated anywhere else, or you’re looking for SOMETHING edible late at night in NYC…

The prices are not café priced.  They are slightly below La Marais’s…
