Gallagher’s Steakhouse has been a fixture in Midtown Manhattan for nearly a century. The restaurant is located steps from the Theater District, drawing theatergoers, tourists, and regulars since the Prohibition era. Gallagher’s has been known for its signature steaks and classic chophouse atmosphere.

Operators announced the closure in a message posted to the restaurant’s website and social media accounts on June 11, 2024. The statement did not specify details about financial or lease issues but referenced "ongoing challenges facing the hospitality industry." Employees were informed of the decision earlier in the week.

The closure will leave a gap in Midtown’s diminishing roster of old-guard steakhouses. Gallagher’s underwent an ownership change and substantial renovations in 2013, but business declined in recent years. Several high-profile restaurant closures have followed the COVID-19 pandemic and shifting Midtown foot traffic.

Reservations at Gallagher’s Steakhouse will be honored through the final dinner service on Friday. No plans have been announced for the future of the space or for relocating the brand.
