The company’s philosophy is very simple:

“Seafood is what we’re known for, but our specialty is excellence. Devotion to excellence is the guiding principle in all that we do. From making fresh tortillas by hand daily for our lobster tacos to including a full half-pound of jumbo lump crab meat in our crab cakes, we strive to go above and beyond in every step of preparation. Our intent: to prepare the finest meal you’ve ever had.”

The restaurant serves only the freshest seafood from pristine waters around the world, as well as USDA Prime steaks specialty aged for at least 28 days to ensure peak flavor. Start your evening with a meticulously handcrafted cocktail or a choice from the restaurant’s collection of fine wines and then visit the oyster bar, which includes a selection of delicious East Coast and West Coast oysters. Something that is perfect to share with friends is the seafood tower, a delectable treat of several types of fresh oysters, Maine lobster, jumbo lump crab, giant prawns, and four sauces for dipping. No matter what you order, the appetizer choices will not disappoint.

For the main course, fish lovers will adore the mild, rich and buttery Chilean sea bass, the succulent swordfish filet, and fabulous Mediterranean branzino, all presented with new and innovative flavors. If you enjoy caviar, then you will appreciate the Petrossian caviar options. Shellfish choices include both South African and Maine lobster, king crab, and Georges bank scallops.

For those who crave a fantastic steak, then Eddie V’s also has that covered with only the best USDA Prime specialty aged cuts. The 18 oz. bone-in New York strip, 22 oz. bone-in ribeye, or center cut filet mignon, are juicy, flavorful and perfectly prepared. Add crab legs, lobster or scallops for a beautiful surf and turf combo.

Complement any dish with your choice of delicious sides, which include butter poached lobster mashed potatoes, truffled mac and cheese and crab fried rice with mushrooms and scallions. Do not forget the dessert. The bananas foster butter cake flambéed tableside is the perfect end to a perfect meal. Simply put, for the prime seafood and steak aficionado, Eddie V’s stands for excellence.
