    On our recent trip to London, four of us went to the Steak Restaurant, on the recommendation of…read moresomeone recently relocated from California. I mention this because we have some amazing steak restaurants in SoCal. The restaurant had several families dining, and had a nice level of background chatter. Our chef took the time to come speak with us, recommend cuts of beef and generally go over our options. This was a lovely surprise as this rarely happens. We started with "fall off the bone" ribs and the Hallumi - (squeaky cheese - wish I could find this here in SoCal... if anyone reading this knows a place... please let me know!) We ordered rib eye steaks, I had the filet... with sides of creamed spinach/truffle fries and Mac and cheese. Everything was cooked to our liking, and the chef came back out to check on us. We actually ended up going back again just because the food and service were great. Look forward to visiting again! (Oooh... if you go, ask for their salts.. I liked the Merlot infused one)

    From the owner: We only source the very finest single farm reared beef from around the UK. All our steak cuts are…read morefrom beef that has been aged on the bone for at least 28 days. This maturing process enhances the richness in taste and ensures tenderness resulting in a sensational eating experience. AND THEN... "The 1800F Grill" The extreme intense heat sears, caramelises, crusts & locks in all the juices ensuring a beautifully textured steak bursting with flavour.

    The ambiance is good. The meat quality is above average. Beef was prepared under ordered…read moretemperature by a full rating... medium rare was very rare. Medium was medium rare, but that's better than over cooking it. Service was not great. Our server was not well versed with the food or drinks and not able to answer questions. We were stuck in a dark corner. Tables around us were attended more frequently and sooner, even when they arrived after us. Wine pours are adequate, but spirit pours are very light. A double whisky was so small that I decided not to spend the money on a second drink. That was after the bar was not able to make a very standard cocktail, and the server had no clue either. So 3/5 stars because of poor service, a mediocre bar, and expensive alcohol.

    Stopped here hoping for a nice steak dinner, impressed with the unique decor...slow service and…read moremediocre food left my palette disappointed. We booked a table in the morning knowing that places are usually fairly busy on Friday nights, when we arrived our table wasn't yet ready, but we weren't fazed we sat at the bar and ordered drinks while waiting for our table. Thankfully our table was ready after about 10mins, their cocktails were actually very tasty and the bartender was attentive and informative of the different drink options. Once seated it took about 15mins for our server to come to our table, we ordered the honey beer bread as a started...when it arrived it tasted stale and the beef dripping butter had a very strange taste...we ignore that assuming it just wasn't something we loved, then we ordered our streaks and shared a side of mashed potatoes and a side of onion rings...I will say the steak was cooked a perfect medium rare as I requested but it was lacking seasoning. A bit of salt definitely helped the steak! The sides were not good the onion rings looked nice and crispy but the inner batter was raw and they tasted overly oily, the mashed potatoes weren't creamy they were dry and very bland. Service was slow the whole night, but on the plus side it gave us a chance to really take in the art part of the restaurant. I adored how each both was a different theme very cute and unique. Over all the steak was mostly good, but the food was overpriced for the quality.
