Yes, it’s the slowest, most time-consuming and most expensive way to age beef.

And yes, it’s worth it.

At any moment the Smith & Wollensky team is aging 7-12 tons of beef.

Smith Wollensky’s perfect Old Fashioned

The old fashioned was a well-balanced blend of rye whiskey, bitters, citrus with the classic orange peel garnish.

The seafood was fresh. The oysters freshly-shucked laying chilled on a bed of ice shavings, surrounded by shrimp and the sides of lemon and vinegar seasoning.
