We were able to walk in and wait about 30 minutes for a table for 3 on a friday night They give you a mug of popcorn to start. Menu is VERY simple. Flat iron steak or burger plus handful of sides. Then on your way out, you get a scoop of ice cream on a cone or in a cup- vanilla soft serve with choco powder. Tasty and different! The flatiron steak cooked medium rare was SO GOOD. and you get a cute butcher's knife to cut it with instead of a normal steak knife. Truffle mac and cheese- SO GOOD. the breadcrumbs with the truff sauce... YUM. Eggplant veggie side- red sauce with lots of flavor, also tasty Garlic mashed potatoes- very garlicy, great with breadcrumbs. Yum Overall we loved the food, it was amazing And not badly priced! 15 british pounds for each steak plus about 5 pounds for each side read more

Steak was very yummy, cooked to my liking (MR) and well portioned. The mashed potatoes were yummy and heavy. Probably would stick to a side salad next time. The service was quick and helpful. I loved the ambiance. It's dimly lit, small, not loud so it felt fancier than what it was. Affordable, simple, yummy, chill-- I'd take a date here. read more

Established in 2012, this cozy and fun restaurant made it through quite a lot, including Covid. That says a lot. And I can see why. Service was incredible! Extremely fast. Right when you come in you get a cup of popcorn that is delicious! I love the scenery. There is a window in the ceiling in the back that really makes it a fun dining experience during the day and I'm sure at night the sky looks incredible. This is a great spot for a date. The drinks are well made and the steak is tasty. I was not s fan of the creamed spinach, but that may be due to my American pallet. I like a bit of Parmesan in mine. The entire time they were extremely attentive. Very attractive staff as well. When it's someone's birthday they bring out drinks and a candle and sing. Lovely spot in the middle of London. Well worth checking out! read more

SO GOOD. I understand why there are so many chains in London. We got the Wagyu and flat iron steak, wine, creamed spinach, and chips. The Wagyu was very good of course and same with their classic steak! Glad we got to try both. We made a reservation the day of so glad we got to try this and the complimentary popcorn and ice cream were both sweet surprises! Our server was very kind and informative. This is certainly a popular spot, it is a larger restaurant but it was full! read more

Flat iron was a delicious experience. The simplicity of a menu is similar to the North American concept, Medium Rare. A few choices of steak that are done well with some pretty good side choices. I love the small bistro atmosphere allowing minimal seating. There wasn't much of a mocktail list for the non-drinkers. I did appreciate that our waiter was able to figure out something else with my drink as I didn't like the nonalcoholic gin option. We ordered our steaks at medium rare and they came out the appropriate temperature which was nice. Prices were very reasonable so I would go again. read more

10/10. I love the concept of this place and think it's so perfectly executed. I came with a friend for her birthday and we both got a steak and couple of sides to share. The steak was perfectly cooked to our individual liking and very well seasoned. The meat wasn't overpowered with salt/pepper. The garlic mashed potatoes were incredibly decadent and paired nicely with the steak. We got the truffle mac and cheese as well and absolutely loved it. We each ordered an old fashioned and felt it was a little too sweet but nonetheless well made. To end the dinner, we received a little token for a free ice cream. I believe it was tahini flavored soft serve and was the perfect lost savory dinner sweet snack. read more

Visited flat iron on soho based on a friends recommendation. We went for lunch around 2. They sat us in the bassement where there were only two other parties. Menu is simple. Flat iron steak for 15 pounds or a cheeseburger for 18 or a Scottish cut or the two daily specials which included a wagyu steak at 35 pounds. We ordered a flat iron and a cheeseburger with a side of their aubegine dish. All tasted well. We also were surprised by a soft serve ice cream. Only weird things was that this is the first place in London where they added a 12.5% optional tip to the bill as if anyone is going to ask the server to remove it. Not sure it is smart or not cool at all. read more

Fantastic experience and affordable, delicious food! Flat Iron is a chain located around London, and it is a great option for dinner! Steaks are juicy, cooked just right up to preference, with a variety of sauces to choose from. The moment you step in, there's the smell of freshly popped popcorn and steak. They give you cups of beef dripping popcorn, which is super flavorful and peppery! The sides are delicious as well, and my favorite was the truffle mac and cheese! You end with a complimentary ice cream as well, and it's super decadent and creamy! Overall a great restaurant, and the staff is so kind! read more

Came here twice while staying in London it was that good. Prices were very reasonable and the steaks were delicious. The service was so fast, we were served within 15 minutes our meaWe did a flat iron steak, which was salty and full of well flavor. Ask for medium rare steak and you will get just that, amazing! Our second time we got the special of the day, Wagyu Picahana for 2. This steak was thick and unfortunately, quite fatty. Had good flavor. Slightly more tender than the flat iron, but we agreed the extra fat ends made it not worth it. We also got the truffle Mac n cheese, the mashed potatoes, and the chips - all superb. The meal ended with free ice cream. Highly recommend this inexpensive dinner experience to everyone! read more

Thanks to my yelping in London, we found an inexpensive but popular steak place in SOHO. Our bus guide also said the place was extra popular. An easy ride to this area, got us there before the crowd. Putting our name on the waiting list got us a table in less than 10 minutes. The menu is simple: 2 types of meat cuts and the specials also include a ribeye and Waygu options. We opted to try the ribeye and the Waygu Bavette(a type of sirloin). Both cuts were cooked to our request. Hubby said his Waygu was super tender. Server recommended one side selection per person since they were portions made for one. The truffle mac and cheese was amazing. The chips(fries) were amazing! Service is quick, lots of servers and food runners. At the end of our meal, they give us these tiny meat cleavers where we can exchange them for free homemade ice cream. There are many London locations and I've read all of them have the same service, food quality and ambiance. read more

We got into Kensington and were starving after traveling. So I looked online for nearby restaurants and found this spot. Initially I was worried because there wasn't a dinner reservation open til 8:45 but we decided to walk over and test our luck at getting a table- and so glad we did. Ambiance was cute on the outside and inside. Staff was friendly and we were promptly seated (it was around 5:00) and they give you some popcorn that they pop in if I remember correctly beef fat as well as some chilled water. It's a win for me and my daughter as we love popcorn and water. We both ordered medium rare flat iron steaks and truffle Mac n cheese and bone marrow mashed potatoes. Everything we ordered was incredible. Upon check out, they give you these cute cleavers that you can exchange for some yummy Soft serve ice cream- love it. The ice cream was delicious and you can get chocolate shavings added. I can't recommend this spot enough. read more

Very small almost hole in the wall restaurant. The main entrance is almost hidden , not a huge sign denoting it we almost missed it. Once we were seated the service was good , tables are very close together. The steak was so good so tender. Served not even in plate served on a piece of wood. Cocktails were made at the bar but served in a flask with their logo on it, pretty cool. Everything we had was fantastic from the steak to the potatoes and the Mac n cheese. We would have gotten ice cream but their machine was down. Can get pretty loud at times because of the closeness of all the tables. Definitely need to make a reservation ahead of time. read more

We loved this place, went twice whole week we were in London.much better than your typical chain steak restaurants in the United States. then they give you free ice cream at the end. How can you beat this place? Mash potatoes- a must! read more

Loved the restaurant when visiting London. Reasonable pricing and very fast for a great meal with the family.

Pro-tip: come early, so you have a semi-decent-chance to grab a seat before the rest of the flock arrives. If you're traveling solo like me, there's a high probability you can skip the line at the bar. Bottom line: the best culinary deal you shall find in London . Period. A must-stop-by to find a bargain during inflationary times . Show me another place serving a high quality steak for 14 pounds? Yeah, you can't, can you? To put this in perspective, a SMALL cheese pizza from a fast-food chain costs 17.99 pounds. But wait, there's more! Each patron receives a free complimentary popcorn snack before meal, and at the conclusion of the meal, you are awarded a 'cleaver token' to be exchanged for a free ice cream cone. So for 14 pounds, you receive popcorn, steak and a desert ice cream cone! Probably cheaper than if you bought each individually from the grocery store ! So I ordered the flat iron steak (medium rare), and two side sauces -- béarnaise sauce and pepperoni. Steaks came out perfectly medium rare , melt -n-your-mouth and already sliced for consumption. But if you must cut it further, they provide a miniature fancy cleaver. From a well-trained chef, it's a rookie mistake to dip any sorta sauce in a juicy medium rare steak. In some countries , you're insulting the chef. I tried two of the side sauces on a few pieces just to see what they tasted like. Béarnaise -- skip. Too rich . Cannot taste meat. Peppercorn-- okay. Better flavor , but just order the flat straight up. I also ordered the cream spinach side. It was more wholesome and healthier as it contained less concentration of the cream side Im accustomed to. Complimentary ice cream cone was excellent. Tasted like something I found at salt 'n straw: basically ice-cream cone of what a sticky toffee pudding would look like. Strong 5/5 stars. Can't recommend enough. read more

Highly recommend! But make a reservation. Restaurant is small but intimate! Fabulous steaks and side dishes with interesting steak knife. Don't forget to try the Flat Iron Malbec wine. It's so smooth and has a cherry hint to it. After your meal you will be treated to a soft serve ice cone to go. Wonderful service and delicious food, a dining must in London!! read more

We came to this location when we were visiting London back in July. We made reservations ahead of time for 6 people. I think 6 was the max they'll let you book for at this location. Other locations I can't remember which one now was a max of 4. We arrived and were seated immediately. We sat at a table in the back closest to the bar. Our waiter came and introduced himself. He asked us if we'd been there before and proceeded to explain the menu to us. He answered all of our questions and was very patient with us as that was our first time there. 5 of us ordered the flat iron steak and one of us ordered the burgers. We got all the sides to share except the chips since they were out. The food arrived quickly. My steak was delicious even though it was more done than I had requested. All the sides were delish. Our fave was the bone marrow mash. The mash was so buttery and smooth. At the end they gave us tiny cleavers as a souvenir which you can also trade in for an ice cream cone. My cousin who got the ice cream do it was delicious. If we ever come back to London to visit, we would for sure try the other locations or come back for lunch. read more

Thank God I just happened upon this place while the family was shopping at the OnCloud store! I looked at the reviews and photos - and tried to make a reservation on a Friday night - none were available for days, at any of their locations. It was nearby so we walked over anyways - got on this list, got called within about 35 minutes. The meal was incredible. Everyone got the flat iron steak - it was cooked EXACTLY as we ordered (under Medium Rare) and tasted fantastic. Service was great, the flatware was really cool (meat cleaver steak knife!) and the free ice cream at the end was a nice touch - especially after seeing how much a cone cost at the ice cream shop right around the corner. This is worth a stop if you are in London and looking a great value and great steak. read more

Flat Iron is a local chain steakhouse that has their experience down to a science leading to incredible popularity. They start you off with popcorn (it's seasoned with beef drippings, so not for vegetarians). We ordered the flat iron and the bavette and both were very tasty, well marbled and prepared as ordered. The sides were perfect for vegetarians and omnivores alike. They send you out the door with some soft ice cream, in case you weren't full enough already. Super fun and reasonably priced. read more

I see why people like it. It's cheap and tasty! We ask for medium rare and it's cooked to perfection. Frankly I'm not the biggest fan of the cut because it's rather lean and chewy but it's very good value. They even have other cuts for as low as £20 for options so it's actually quite nice. Our fav sides are cream spinach and roasted aubergine - do give it a go! Their wine is also quite affordable despite the short list but overall experience was very nice! What tops it off is the free ice cream at the end - it's super sweet (not the best) but it's such a cheer on top to end your meal. The only thing is they are very hard to book. read more

Kasim was the BEST waiter. I've been here a few times. My husband and I try to get there every time we're in London. His family is there so we go at least once a year. They have some of the best burgers I've ever had. We had our wedding there in December 2022, we brought over roughly 20 Americans. We brought them all here and they still rave about the burgers (over a year later) The icing on the cake is the ice cream cone on the way out. Just perfect! One of my absolute favorite spots!! read more

I have just finished having dinner at the Flat Iron in Victoria. Wonderful! The Wagyu Flat Iron steak, rare, was so tender and flavorful. I ordered the bernaise and the wild mushroom sauces. Both were fantastic. My Old Fashioned cocktail came in a tiny flask (nice flair) and was surprisingly tasty. The La Foule Pinot Noir paired well with my Wagyu. The best part of dinner was the warm hospitality and fantastic service given by TAL the bartender. TAL schooled me on cuts of meat and the best way to order them. A very personable yet efficient bartender, made me feel like a regular, and so appreciated. Kudos to Flat Iron for great food and drinks at a very reasonable price. The staff is wonderful! This will be one of my go-to joints in London. read more
