The reserve or Rimon they both have good steak, though not on Manhattan standards of course. If you want sushi too I would go with the reserve.

The reserve is way nicer than Rimon.

Prices there are sky high though, (IIRC) on par w PG .

The downside is they seat 2 couples attached, with only some flowers in between. Literally.

I would not go so far as to say that it is as costly as prime grill but it is expensive which is why I mentioned Rimon as a cheaper though not as good alternative.
