Do they take reservations?Or is too crowded at noon on a friday?

They take reservations and always friendly/professional.

Is your West 72nd St. restaurant open?

YES

Is there a kid's menu available and are children welcome? Thank you in advance.

Thank you all.

Are they open Christmas day

Thanks I was planning on it

Is there a tv at the bar?

TV is only at front of bar so unobtrusive to the NY style pub. They do watch Jeapordy! Especially watch Jeapordy wth the current 2019 winning streak- but sound is off.

I loved this place and can't believe I have not been here before. Classic beyond classic NYC, had a great burger and fries...two orders of fries, a bloody mary and a dirty martini with gin of course. Great bar tender and a load of characters were there, this place is a must.

AWESOME place for drinks at the bar! Not so much for dinner from the menu. They have cheap price for NYC for dinner and you get what you pay for. If your ok with very average food at a cheap NYC price than definitely come here.

Family run Irish Pub. I have been a customer there since about 1970. The food is great. The turkey dinner is real turkey cooked in their own kitchen. Staff is attentive and fast. Very popular with the after work middle aged crown. Put this on your list.

I was very disappointed. I’m only giving one star because I can’t put zero stars. The steak had absolutely no salt or seasoning. The chop steak was completely raw in the center even after we requested it cooked. Unfortunately the waitress was no help. She offered to bag our food after we told her the food had no flavor.

This place is my preferable place. Of all restaurants I know I favor it most. I always suggests to my friends to go to visit this place. Whenever I I need a decent dinner, this is the place that comes right away to my mind. outstanding and all sorts of food and a rich menu.great staff members, and good ambience. Also important, the cost is affordable. I sent my friends to this spot with no doubt.

Bartender recommended Shepard's Pie; and it was delicious and plentiful. Hot beef open face sandwich was "ok" as per my dining partner. Lowly played oldies was a nice accent. Will definitely return!

A classic NYC institution with a calm old-school vibe, fairly good food, no-nonsense waitresses, and prices that are pretty decent for the UES. Support this place, as there are definitely too few like it left in the country.

If you are looking for a quaint little eatery this place has the best atmosphere. I just sat down for a couple drinks at the bar and was pleasantly surprised at the friendly bartender, Johnny, with an Irish accent and a tendency to keep my drink full.

A long time favorite of both my husband and me. Both of us worked in the city and this was our Friday night meet place. Maureen is always there and greets you with a huge hello and a smile. Food is always good. There are always special and even after not being there for a few months it felt like coming home. Try the fried shrimp (my husband's favorite), or the lamb chops (my favorite). If you are lucky enough to be there on a night when they have scallops, definitely try them, you won't be disappointed.

Started out great. Bread was amazing, the mozzarella sticks were amazing, the salad was fresh and crisp and delicious (could’ve used some croutons and shredded cheddar, but not a big deal). So when my $40 filet came out I was expecting perfection. Little did I know my hopes were about to be shattered and my taste buds disappointed. The steak was bland with no flavor whatsoever. Ordered a refill, it was sitting on the end of the bar for quite a long time (at least 15 minutes) as our waitress walked by it and us multiple times. I asked the waitress to split the check because we were all buying our own food and I received a disgusting look and an attitude with her response. We received our checks and were charged full price for each refill we asked for, you know the one that was on the end of the bar for at least 15 minutes. I would not go back to this restaurant and do not recommend it. It’s not worth the money.

A very good sirloin steak and a very good hamburger. The atmosphere is of a bar; a bit tight booths and a bit noisy. It attracts older fox, who seem to really enjoy the place.

Donoghue's Steak House is definitely not a place I would recommend to my friends or anyone that enjoys good food. I recently had dinner there with my boyfriend and we ordered their beef steak. It was the most dry, flavorless piece of meat we ever tasted. We were very disappointed especially since we spent quite alot for the dish. In fact after we left the steak house we got bought some Halal meat at a food truck to compare and to our surprise the halal meat was way better!

The turkey they serve is precooked and has no skin on it and no flavor ... stuffing is flavorless as well... not a hint of onion, celery, rosemary, thyme, etc. How hard is it to make tasty stuffing... Also, it is mushy. Gravy is from a can. Don't know how Irish owners could not make a respectable turkey entree. Pork chops are excellent. Bar area is very small... maybe ten stools.

What a great experience. After walking by and researching the place, finally went for my birthday with family. I was pleasantly treated to quality food, efficient wait staff and an ambiance long forgotten in today's NY. I can't wait to go back here to explore the rest of the menu. Thanks for keeping it old school, Donohue's!
