If you are craving a delicious steak, then Peter's Steakhouse is a fun place to go in our area.  It is located at 1 Mill Road in Eastchester (914-202-7740).

The owners, Peter Bicaj, the Maitre de, and Artie Jaha, the Head Waiter, have worked many years in other steak restaurants, and they give customers what they want - - Italian and Seafood selections in addition to steak.

The large, spacious dining room has an attractive bar with well-spaced seating that creates a warm and inviting atmosphere. There is also a special room for private parties.

We started our fine dining experience with Appetizers that included tasty and tender Grilled Octopus and Peter's Chopped Salad, which was a winning combination of romaine, spinach, peas, carrots, corn, red peppers, hearts of palm, and avocado, topped with creamy Feta cheese.

Our entrees included a juicy "melt in your mouth" Filet Mignon served with peppercorn sauce.  We also had a generous portion of Sauteed Mushrooms with the steak. There are five other steak entrees and a Specialty Burger on the menu. The diner next to us said the burger was excellent.

Our other entree was Stuffed Shrimp with crabmeat, served with perfectly cooked and flavorful Risotto.

Other entrees on the menu include pasta dishes, including Chicken and Veal A La Peter, served with prosciutto, spinach, and sage in a Marsala wine sauce topped with mozzarella. 

The "Piece de Resistance" was our dessert, which was Pistachio Tartufo encased in chocolate and raspberry.

Classic Cocktails are $16, and Red and White Wine by the Glass are $14 with all bottles priced at $56 each.

The restaurant also offers "Happy Hour" from 4 to 8 pm every day, when Oysters are $2.00 each instead of $3.75, and the Rangers, Yankees, Mets, and Eastchester Burgers are $13 instead of $19 each!

Customer service is a priority here, and the restaurant will offer outdoor dining starting soon.
