Food Quality

Pros:

• "One of my regular haunts in the City. The food is always delicious. The staff are full of love for their customers. Great atmosphere."
• "The quality of their steaks are really good, I recommend their platters and their sandwiches."
• "The dulce de leche cheesecake was amazing - a European style, dense cake not overly sweet or tangy."
• "The meat is something else. Slow cooked rib melts like butter off the bone. The sirloin is incredibly tender."
• "Great food - really tasty."
• "The steak was seasoned and cooked to perfection, and all of the sides were delicious as well."
• "The steak was cooked to perfection, with a lot of flavour and make sure you try the crepes with caramel ice cream."

Cons:

• "The food was a bit disappointing: chips are extremely salty and the beef, their specialty, was much over-done."
• "I would give 5 stars but my Lomito was completely raw inside, even cold temperature."
• "Cost £7 and we only got 3 mushrooms. By the time you add service charge thats over £2.50 per mushroom."
• "The chorizo sausage was undercooked."
• "The burger quite good but the chips felt overcooked - they were orange and somewhat oily."
• "Grill box was alright, ribs could have been softer, steaks were not thick enough and a bit too chewy."
• "Carpaccio disappointed us as I think they squeezed too much lemon in it."

Value

Pros:

• "The prices were as you would expect... Quite high!"
• "but £2.50 for each steak sauce was a little pricey."
