Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I have been before and the steak was amazing, one if if not the best I’ve eaten in a restaurant. Prime USDA is not a common steak to find in the UK. Unfortunately this time the steak came cut up, even after Elena the waitress (who was amazing) made sure to ask and I told her I didn’t want it cut. So when it came out I was unhappy and the manager apologised for his mistake in cutting it and took it away per my request. The temperature goes cold very very quickly when you are one person eating a steak made to share.
A new steak came out about 5/10 minutes later which was unfortunately too quick for a steak of 600g cooked to medium rare. The manager was nice enough to get me fresh sides to eat with my steak. Unfortunately it was blue / rare on the inside. After taking it away to cook it more it came out rare which by that time I just wanted to eat. Unfortunately through rushing the steak out it was severely charred and burnt on the outside and what would have been an amazing steak was ruined. Elena apologised profusely and said she hopes we come back and even took the steak of the bill. All annoyance I had was utterly shattered by the high standard of customer service. I have been and will continue to recommend The Steak Restaurant to everyone who enjoys steak. I will be back. P.s my partners fillet mignon was perfect and she loved it.

There is not one element this restaurant can be beaten on - the price, the quality of the meat, the selection, the taste, the atmosphere and the service are spot on.
Myself and my partner visit relatively regularly, the lovely staff allow us to order starters that are no longer on the menu, always tell us we’ve ordered too much food (which we always have) and are a credit to the restaurant!
Today is my birthday and under the current circumstances we placed an order for collection and the quality was still outstanding! We’d have been eating at The Steak Restaurant with or without a lockdown.
Thank you!

Easy to book, welcoming reception, nice seating and restaurant.
Food was good from a decent menu selection, not a huge menu which fits in with my preference at specialty restaurant (IE Steak!).
The not so great bits.
Drinks were slow to be served.
The second glass of wine was ordered when the staters were taken away and arrived after the main was finished.
The broccoli arrived mid main course and was cold, as for it to be replaced but it never came back.
But, as the manager clocked the issues without us having to raise them they were already deducted from the bill! That is great service and why I will be going back.

We went Last night to take advantage of the Eat out to help out but unfortunately it wasn’t the best experience. I asked for my tuna to be medium cooked, instead it was pretty rare. The Caesar salad I had was not nice at all , the dressing tasted overpoweringly of anchovy, which I know should be in that dressing, but not to that degree, the lettuce was wrong and it was limp, everything was just disappointing, but the worst bit was that they added service charge so the £10 off which we would’ve got was reduced to £6 and some pence and didn’t seem worthwhile

We are so sorry to hear of your disappointing experience with us.
I would like to assure you that our veg is delivered fresh everyday and that we take our quality very seriously, which is evident by all the great reviews we receive. If you would have brought any of these issues up while in the restaurant we would have dealt with them there and then. Please do pop in anytime to have a chat with me so that we can resolve this. Every customer is important to us and we would love the chance to win you back.

Ate here on August Back Holiday Friday.
Our table was booked for 8, and they were very busy when we got there.
We were shown to our table and given the menu to look at.
I ordered baby Back ribs as a starter, followed by calves liver and mashed potato, both were hot and delicious, hubby ordered grilled halloumi followed by King prawns on a skewer with a caeser salad and a portion of fries, again he really enjoyed his meal.
All the waiting staff were friendly, good parking in the car park in the street behind, will definitely return they have a very nice lunch time menu at a really great price, might try that next time.

Always great special. I go to this restaurant every time I’m in the UK. It’s a small restaurant that has a family run feel, and seat approx 80 people, with double seating most evening for book your table.
The menu is small and select with good cuts and choices. The steaks are always cooked to perfection to the temp you like. My daughter’s favorite is the peri peri chicken, half a rotisserie prepared with a home made peri peri. Imagine the other peri peri chicken place taken to another level. Always very moist and fantastic with the skinny fries. We alway also get the mash as it goes well with both steak or chicken and is really nice.
For dessert we are alway torn as they are all so good but the cream brûlée or chocolate fondant win for me every time

First time to this place, we usually go to prime when we have a special occasion but had been disappointed in our last few visits so we booked here.
We weren’t disappointed
Best steak me and my boyfriend have ever had, we ordered oysters when we got there as we love them they were spot on, so fresh.
We both had starters that were spot on.
I ordered fillet , and my boyfriend ordered the Wagu sirloin he’s always wanted to try it.
Both our steaks were cooked perfect to our liking. My fillet was the best I’ve ever had it melted in my mouth and lee loved his wagu.
This is our new steak place for special occasions.
Staff were all attentive and very friendly and the owner came over as we wanted to say how nice our meal was.
It’s nice to see the owner working and serving people like his staff.
We had a great time thank you!

Treated ourselves to a selection of main courses and sides for home delivery. We do not order food for home delivery at all usually but we wanted to support the restaurant’s new venture in these tough times.
Very pleased as food arrived promptly, hot, tasty (as usual in the actual restaurant) and all the packaging was recyclable. We didn’t order steak because I wasn’t convinced it would travel well. The lamb shanks, burgers and teriyaki salmon were all well received.

I was a bit sceptical about getting a delivery for steak but really shouldn’t have been ... it arrived perfectly and was absolutely scrumptious. So full of taste and the accompanying chips and creamed spinach topped our meal off perfectly. We will definitely be getting another takeaway soon and be visiting the restaurant once restrictions are lifted.

Ate here in June 2022 after recommendations from Friends.
Upon arrival, I was rather surprised by the number of tables they have squeezed into the small space. It was not very comfortable. Having to squeeze parts the waiting staff and other diners trying to get to the washroom was not a great experience.
The starters were really nice. We had the Jumbo Shrimp Cocktail and Peri Sausages.
For mains, we had the 200g fillet, 500 Chateaubriand and Burger. The steak was very disappointing. Whilst cooked to specification (Medium) the meat was chewy and not very flavoursome. The burger was good.
Sides: Mash and sweet potato fires which were average.
The staff were nice and helpful. They were more than happy to adjust when we had made a mistake with our order.
We had 2 Mocktails (Strawberry Mojito + Pina Colada) which were nice.
It was a pricey visit and more than I expected for a 'local'. We were a party of 4 and paid £156 + £20 for the optional service charge totalling £176.
Unfortunately, for a steak restaurant to not serve great steak means we won't be returning

We visited for a lunch time treat 2pm on a Monday.
Staff are polite and smartly dressed and offered us a table that needed cleaning and turning around for the next customer,with used cutlery and napkins on the floor.
Why this wasn’t done felt a bit lax.
Ordered drinks which came with nibbles,then our mains.
Here is my primary issue,
Ribeye steak medium rare should melt in the mouth and have flavour,unfortunately not.
Nothing awful just average.
My wife’s meal exactly the same, at least there’s consistency.
£140 for lunch should wow a bit more.

Booking for a was easy online.
Upon arrival the waitress came over with complimentary bread and edamame, she mentioned that the bread was not suitable for customers with a nut allergy. This was very good as I have a nut allergy, which she had no idea of, and had she not mentioned it, I would have eaten the bread.
Good choice on the menu. We shared the peri chicken sausages which were nice. Main courses were nice, my husband enjoyed the steak and the Mac & cheese was incredible. We didn’t have dessert as were very full.
The staff were very friendly and very helpful.
The only reason we didn’t give a 5 star review was it was incredibly busy and loud. I know it was 7pm on a Saturday evening and that Covid restrictions have completely eased (staff still wearing masks/visors) but we just felt it was very cramped. There were still screens between tables which is great, but a lot of people in a small space & ventilation was questionable even though they had the whole front completely open as it was a warm evening.
Additionally, because it was Saturday night, you only get the table for 2 hours, which isn’t a huge problem as there was only two of us and we weren’t going to stay much longer but it felt very one in and one out and if we were with a bigger group, it might not have been enough time for a good night/catch up with people.
We will definitely eat here again but with a big group would choose a week night or lunch time

It is difficult to find somewhere to park nearby. The Steak Restaurant is located in a stretch of road which has quite a few places to eat so there is a lot of choice and it attracts a lot of people.
It was apparently a typical Friday evening, every table was booked and the staff were buzzing back and forth between the kitchen and the tables, clearing, cleaning, laying tables, moving the apart and moving them together as required for new groups of diners. All of this went very smoothly with, from what I could see and hear, no fuss at all. It was nice to see the staff noticing and helping each other out, it is evidence of care and pride in their restaurant.
We first started with a round of cocktails, they were OK. We then had a selection of starters, the liver parfait was absolutely fine, however my fellow diners felt the batter of the shrimp tempura could have been thinner and crispier. Only one of us had a glass of wine and said it was very good.
For mains we had a halloumi burger and a selection of steaks. The burger was pronounced very good indeed. The steaks however were superb! We had orders that were potentially awkward for the chef, three different cuts of different thickness, one medium rare, one rare and one bleu. All four dishes arrived at the same time, all prepared, cooked and plated to perfection, closely followed by the sides of triple fried thick cut chips, thin chips and creamed spinach - lovely, lovely, lovely!!!
For dessert we had coffees and cheesecake. The coffees were very nice and the cheesecakes were absolutely fine.
The dinner for four was not super cheap, working out at just over £50 each, however the steaks were superb and put the starters and desserts into the shade, well that was and is our opinion.
Would we go back? A resounding, "Yes!". Definitely for the steak and on the basis of that I would try other starters to see which one suits my taste best. I want to make this clear, there is nothing wrong with the starters and desserts, they're just not in the same super-league as the steaks!.

The steak was very nice , I can’t deny that . It comes with a bunch of garlic with a rosemary leave . The extras are expensive , the roast potatoes were not very tasty and not what I call proper roast potatoes but new chucked into the oven . The veg were basic , peas, no broccoli ( should have been ) and lots of peas ! Very expensive side for what it was . Salad was a few old lettuce leaves . Wouldn’t go back . The bill for 3 was £189 for mains only . No alcohol only bottled water . They should offer another mains to go with the steak, even a few chips would’t go a miss . I give it 2 stars and that’s just for the steak .

Fabulous restaurant. Service excellent- shout out to Mika. Food delicious. Salmon ceviche starter scrummy. Tuna steak main the best ever tasted. Beans cooked to perfection. Everyone else has various steaks - all delicious. Was celebrating friends birthday but we were all too full up to order dessert so they brought a large slice of cheesecake with candle so we could sing Happy birthday (And all the staff joined in).
