On our recent trip to London, four of us went to the Steak Restaurant, on the recommendation of someone 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) read more
