"Leaving this review so hopefully La Fusta can take some accountability. To celebrate Father’s Day this year, we wanted to go to our fave restaurant La Fusta. We made a reservation for 6:30pm for 6 people. We were told we’d be accommodated and they looked forward to seeing us. When we arrived. There was a line and huge wait of people who all had reservations. Everyone had been told to come for their reservation time but none of us had been told when we’d arrive that we’d be waiting in line. There were families with 4 plus people waiting, many with older family members and babies/ toddlers. We were not given a reason for the wait or given an apology of any kind. Despite the wait, we wanted to stay because the food is always good at La Fusta. However then they made a very racist decision which left a horrible impression on myself and my family. The hostess decided to sit the family AFTER us in line BEFORE us because the white man at the front of their group complained. Supposedly they had a reservation for a half hour before us, but that is not what their family had been saying while they were waiting. They had been saying their reservation was for the SAME TIME as us. Since they were on line after us, they should have been sat after us. However they were intentionally sat before us. As a family of latinos, it was hard not to perceive that decision as blatantly racist. We have frequented La Fusta for many years and for many special occasions. However, after this overt racism we’re left considering if we’ll ever return. Such a shame considering that their staff is predominantly latino as well. Hoping La Fusta takes some accountability for this decision and reaches out to make it right. Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $50–100 Food: 5 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 2"

Crowded most times so place gets cramped. Takes some time for order to get cooked. Food was great though. I loved the grilled salmon. View menu

I tried the fettuccine alfredo and it was delicious, with a creamy texture that wasn’t dry like at other places I’ve been. However, on 04/17/2022, I ordered the same dish again, and this time it didn’t taste the same—it was missing flavor.

Visited La Fusta while visiting New York , and the food was amazing, i order a combination plate with steak, chorizo ,Morcilla and the famous Sangria. The service was great , i felt like i was visiting family members. Will Definitely come back.

We had an amazing meat experience at La Fusta And Steak House. We tried the meat platter, featuring skirt steak, ribs, chorizo, and chicken, all bursting with flavor. The portions were generous, perfect for our family of four. The empanadas were excellent as well. Overall, we had a fantastic time and thoroughly enjoyed our meal! View menu

I had an amazing dining experience with outstanding service. I don’t see how anyone could find fault here; everything was impeccable. I savored the La Fusta Salad, the Argentinian grill for two, and the flan. The food was delicious and served in just the right portions. My Bourbon Manhattan was expertly made. I will surely come back!

What a Wonderful dining experience! Rosita is warm and endearing! Her and her staff make you feel right at home! The food was AMAZING! I had the chicken Parmesan w garlic and oil linguine! My family members had skirt steaks that were juicy and tender!They also had the rigatoni w the house sauce! Also AMAZING! The chimichurri on the fresh warm bread is a must have! (That?s ifyou love garlic) Overall I Highly recommend this hidden gem! Especially if you?re a grilled meat lover!
