West Shore Inn Steakhouse

Amazing place! 25 years I have been going there. The food is always great, the service is great, the owners are great. Go there for every occasion and everything is always spectacular. Best place on Staten Island to eat. They have something for everyone.

Brought the family for a birthday dinner on a Monday night. Glad to see the steak specials are still offered then. We all had the 24 oz porterhouse. Nice piece of meat. Cooked exactly as requested. A fine meal, including the French Onion Soup and creamed spinach. Criticisms: the onion rings were greasy - which tells me the fryer is set too low. An easy fix. Come on! The meat is straight-up broiled, so needs salt of course. It would be nice to be offered a finishing, perhaps a skillet searing in butter, or even a dusting of sea salt to form a crust. Not a criticism, but a suggestion to make a good meal even better.

I brought my girlfriend here for a nice steak dinner. I have heard from many friends and family how good this place was but wasn't expecting to have the best steak I have ever had! Do yourself a favor and get the Porterhouse, cream spinach. My girlfriend had the crab legs. Great portion and when she is happy....I'm happy! I'm not a review type person, but people need to know where to bring someone for an amazing dinner.

On Tuesday I called the West Shore Inn. I've eaten there many times and even hosted a few small functions there before, but now I had a dilemma that I was unsure they could handle. On the following Sunday, I needed a room to host a luncheon for 55 people. Jessica answered the phone, and in a calm collected voice said, "No problem". Well, I had looked at their function menu online so I was ready to answer all the menu request questions. She informed me that if I wished to go above and beyond, Mother Mousse Bakery could also provide a sheet cake and they could pick it up for me. (I did and they did).
It's Sunday, people coming for a 1-5pm function. I, along with 2 family members, arrived at 11:50am. A restaurant associate opened the door for us. Flower pieces and balloons, that we supplied, were set up. Table seating arrangements and place cards were put out, guests arrived and at 1pm the guest of honor walked through the door. Now it was left to the restaurant staff.
I've noticed over the years that some restaurants hire staff and expect them to fill a slot. A better class of restaurant trains their staff to work together. West Shore Inn had well trained, attentive, courteous associates. With time to answer a question or just within eyesight, they were spot on, ALL OF THEM! The kitchen staff, although I did not see them, kept the food coming so all of us could enjoy the same course together. Not as easy as one might imagine. Although we had a menu of fish, chicken or beef, it was not a problem to create a few children friendly meals, a ravioli platter and a vegan plate. I'm still getting phone calls with the food and venue being applauded.
Mike, you should be very proud of your entire staff, they treat the customer, I'm sure, like you would. Kudos. I'll see you many more times, you make a good time out great.

Excellent, I'll be back!! Just left the steakhouse and everything was perfect. I went here about 3 years ago and wasn't impressed, but the w owner was working the restaurant along with the staff and everything was very good. The filet Mignon was cooked prefect, although it was charred on the top a little more than i like it was medium and tasted amazing. We also got the volcano steak tips, which are filet Mignon with fried onions and mashed potatoes, and again it was perfect. I would honestly call this one of the best steaks in NYC!! However the service could use some work- it want bad but it definitely want good.
