I've eaten at many famous steakhouses. River Palm Terrace is not that well known relative to Luger's, but they're definitely one of the best in the North Jersey/Metro NY Area. River Palm will give a Luger-headache waiting for a table, but the steak will force a Chicago Chop House-smile on your face. The fare are on par with those in Manhattan, but if there's one place to go for US Prime Dry-Aged steak and a fairly-priced wine list it's RPT. Theres three of these places in my home, the Garden State. Do what I did: search the web for their website and a menu, go there and educate your taste.
Pros: Service, Steak
Cons: Waiting for a table, Small/good crab cakes
