• Steakhouse • Little Italy
Booked 116 times today
The American steakhouse is an iconic restaurant institution. We’d wanted to tell that story for years, but waited until we had the skill, talent and ability to execute it properly, and the right space to be our canvas, an important corner in Little Italy, a neighborhood where we have deep roots. We brought an almost academic appreciation for steakhouse history and tradition to Born & Raised, while trying to stay relevant and authentic to ourselves and our city. Our dry-aged beef pays tribute to earlier, earthier, pre-government grading practices and is the centerpiece of a meal best savored at a slow pace. A timeless celebration of everything that makes restaurants so special. - Consortium Holdings. A 4% surcharge is added to all guest checks.

    We had a wonderful experience! The food was delicious, the atmosphere was immersive and enjoyable, and our server was absolutely fantastic. She shared wonderful stories about each elephant, and her genuine love for them and gratitude for being part of the team truly made the experience special. The staff was very accommodating of a food allergy and took excellent care of our table. Although one main dish was accidentally forgotten, the generous portions and delicious food we did receive more than made up for it. Overall, a memorable experience with wonderful service and a special atmosphere. We would happily return!
