Connaughton's Riverdale Steak House: Irish Bar and Steaks Until 4am
Connaughton’s Riverdale Steak House, at 5700 Riverdale Ave in North Riverdale, doesn’t post a happy hour. It’s an Irish-run steakhouse and bar that Terry Connaughton, from Athleague in Roscommon, has run since 1979.
The verdict: the latest bar in Riverdale by a distance, open noon to 4am every day, and a room where GAA is a reasonable conversation topic. The restaurant’s own site calls Connaughton one of New York GAA’s most dedicated activists, and most of the 20 staff are Irish. The catch: no menu or prices on its site, so there’s nothing to measure, and no subway nearby.
What to Expect
- Hours: 12pm–4am daily
- The room: a steakhouse with its own bar, under the same owner since 1979
