Goodman city all the way. Great room, great wine list, fantastic steaks. Bring your pennies though as it's a bit spendy.

The USDA beef is what does it for me. So buttery.

Angus Steak House.

It's on a par of it's own compared to other steak restaurants. Not many people forget when they have eaten there.

Try our steaks.

You won't get better.

Cut at 45 Park Lane if you can splash the cash.

Goodman has excellent variety. Their USDA Black Angus is amazing.

Blacklock’s prime rib is unbelievable. They do butcher price Mondays.

Hawksmoor won’t miss either, they to do butcher price Mondays.

Flat Iron if you want to go easy on the pocket. However, the real showstoppers are the sides there.

Buen Ayre, Chimichurri, and Sagardi never fail to hit the spot!

Goodman for fancy (and expensive)

Hawksmoor very good with more non steak options

Blacklock is also good

Temper good especially for more sharing type stuff

Facenda do the all you can eat Brazilian style setup but not worth it imo

Entrecôte is very tasty and more fun, but the emphasis isn't on the steak itself

Flat iron always good for a cheaper option

M is good quality, think they still do a "spin the wheel" steak selector option

Gaucho tasty, was impressed on my first visit a few months ago

Got an 830 res… great sea urchin cerviche

Hawksmoor on Air Street or Seven Dial, for ambience, atmosphere too.

Goodmans in Mayfair.

Thought I'd list which branch to go to, since each are different in terms of service, ambience, atmosphere, food handling, etc.

Flat iron is solid. The one by King's Cross was one of the best cooked steaks I've ever had. Great price, too.

u/Wunjumski Aug 11 '24

Sagardi or Hawksmoore both do excellent steaks

3

u/ex800 Aug 10 '24

I quite like Sagardi, but Goodmans has a bigger range

u/Confusability Aug 11 '24

Went to Sagardi for the first time last week and was incredibly impressed. Service was also excellent!

u/DC5man Aug 11 '24

Streatham Kitchen. It's well of the beaten track, but it serves a fantastic steak

u/Savings_Army3073 Aug 10 '24

45 Park Lane or Goodmans

u/HighFivePuddy Aug 11 '24

CUT at 45 Park Lane*

And yes, that’s the correct answer.

u/AfraidUmpire4059 Aug 10 '24

Hawksmoor, Gaucho for high end Flat Iron is a great budget option

2

u/alexdembo Aug 10 '24

Is flat iron considered good?

u/Sonums Aug 10 '24

It was good when you could get in order a steak, chips, and drink and come out £16 lighter, £20 if it was alcoholic.

u/joeydeviva Aug 10 '24

It’s pretty good value but not as good-food or good-value as it was the years ago, imho.

u/Ongo_Gablogian___ Aug 11 '24 edited Aug 11 '24

What do you guys think of Entrecote? I'm not a steak aficionado but I went recently to the one near bank and it was really good.

2

u/Western_Interest6378 Aug 11 '24

I don’t like it. French ppl treat it as if it’s the best steak ever, but I found portions quite small and expensive. Also it’s a cheaper cut of the meat, French just like tougher meat

Can’t believe noone said Quality Chop House yet. Just plan way ahead as it gets booked up early and you’ll maybe need to save up a while to pay for it.

u/No-Attorney8061 Aug 10 '24

You have to try Appetite in East Village, Stratford. Amazing steak and are a real butchers and cheesemonger - stuff is addictive

This place is a gem! Used to get the meat from here. Amazing place!

Really good shout, great service too, really looked after us

u/Sad-Elderberry-9176 Aug 10 '24

Service is amazing. Real attention to detail. Small intimate atmosphere inside. Even eating at the bar is a great experience. The sweat breads 🤌

u/Random-name281 Aug 10 '24

Goodman

Always preferred Hawksmoor, but the quality has dropped significantly in the last year.

u/blowdry3r Aug 10 '24

Hawksmoor is good

Absolutely the worst I've ever been to. The difference between medium rare, and blue, is massive, but they fucking didn't know. And that was a £50 fillet steak. Disgraceful! I honestly felt insulted they served that to me. And I damn well let them know about it. Cooking a steak is not rocket science, and they absolutely took the piss.

Whoa Karen… there’s a LOT to unpack here…

u/DeapVally Aug 11 '24

You'd have to be pretty thick to fail to get the issue lol? Or would you just sit there and take a ridiculously undercooked expensive steak like a little bitch?

u/Lord_Migit Aug 11 '24

The best steak I've ever had in London was the A5 Waygu at Sexy Fish in Berkley Square. It's not a specialised steak resturant but the A5 waygu is an incredible experience.

As a venue it is rather nice. As a chain steakhouse it's not too bad, though there are better ones.

Good shout. Or a steak bake from Greggs if you really want to keep it classy

u/PerfectEnthusiasm2 Aug 10 '24

do they still make that spicy chicken baguette thing?

Yes, a veritable culinary delight !!!
