ArifNovember 21, 2015Finally I had the chance to eat in the original one and didn't go weong with it. Try steak tartare as starter, get a rib-eye with a good wine and you're good to go.Upvote3Downvote

Sit inside. Order from the butcher. Grassed is better than grain. Go slightly larger and make it med rare with pepper crust. Skip the starch. Have a beerUpvoteDownvote- Terry LablacheOctober 26, 2014The home of meat. Full of locals so defo in the right place. Good and friendly service. Food quality is great.UpvoteDownvote

Yewande Enobaks-AdewusiAugust 22, 2016I recommend the garlic snails & rib eye. To be honest I think they were having an off day or we had a terrible waiter. Our mains were cold and an error my husband's side & it simply never came.Upvote1Downvote
Melanie BrownMay 16, 2012My friend's beef ribs looked really good. My kudu arrived pretty much raw. When I asked them for just another minute on the grill, they completely overcooked it. Wine was excellent.Upvote1Downvote- Rudy 🔞January 17, 2016Nice atmosphere, good service and excellent steaks. Highly recommendUpvoteDownvote
There's an element I've picked up, that, if you are not pleasant as a patron you won't experience the true essence of er this restaurant's vibe.Upvote2Downvote- Paddy McManusMarch 15, 2010If you want great RSA meat -- you will NOT be disappointed - go up to the counter to choose your own cut. The wine cage is first class -- with a lot of new vintners to investigate.Upvote5Downvote
