This is a great steak placed adjacent to and owned by what is widely considered to be the best beer bar in NYC. For me, that’s pretty close to heaven.  The 2-hour wait for a table – the average after a few visits – is best spent with a friend next door at Spayten Dayvel (beer garden in Williamsburg). Once seated at the San Anselm bar (everyone at the bar is there to eat), much of the action is from an intense duo of tattooed maidens slinging “ax handle” steaks and everything else that crosses the grill for the entire restaurant. They know what they are doing, and it is fascinating to watch.  Fish, meat, and veggies pass over those flames with nothing much between. The food is superbly tasty, simple and reasonable.  It takes an evening, but you will remember it your whole life.
