I spent $390, including a $60 tip, for an experience that was quite disappointing. The steaks, priced at $60 each, were not very good. We also ordered the seafood tower, but the shrimp was overcooked. While the cost suggested a five-star experience, we had to endure a private corporate function in the restaurant, with several people shouting in the background. It was frustrating, especially when the area had so many excellent restaurants. Given our experience, I doubt we'll return to The Battery; it simply isn't worth the high prices.
