GRAMERCY. This Laurent Tourondel bistro celebrates the quintessential American steakhouse, and flavors it with the award-winning chef's own sense of panache. Make no mistake: If there's one thing this place knows it's meat, and you'll see plenty of it if you take a peak in the on-site aging room, where USDA Prime beef sits alongside premium cuts of veal and lamb. Like Tourondel's Fish and Steak editions, Prime boasts a design that seems tailor-made for its particular brand of fare: earthy browns and tans, high ceilings, an open kitchen and bistro-style chalkboard menu. TRAIN: N, R, W, 6 to 23rd St
