    There is only one main on the regular menu and you cannot go wrong with this steak. I recommend the chips and (amazingly buttery) béarnaise sauce to go with. If you love steak, this place is a must!

    One os the best steaks and burger around London. The service is just perfect, fast and very friendly. If the restaurant is full, they take your name and send you a SMS as soon as a table is available.

    One of the best steak I've ever had! Its tender, juicy and coarse salt crystals busts in your mouth with every bite! Go for medium rare. And get yourself a glass of wine and a side of chips!

    A year later I'm back and WOWO! Go for the special burger. It's absolutely amazing. Beautifully cooked in beef dripping, covered in bearnaise sauce and shallots. Simple yet delicious! Go!

    The most sensible steak place. Steaks are amazing, sides are great, interior is cozy and the service is absolutely fabulous. My fav combo: house steak + peppercorn sauce + creamed spinach. To die for.

    The cocktails were great, the steak (shoulder cut) was properly cooked, and my chips were fried in the drippings. The steak could've rested for another 10 minutes to be honest, but it was great.

    For just 10£ you get an amazing steak. Waiting time is usually 2 hours, just leave your name and go for a drink nearby. Whatever we had (sides/cocktails) was really good. Totally recommended!

    Great steak place. Cheap and great tasting steaks. The slides are always yum - spinach and fries are my favourite. Cute back garden area.

    Limited menu but amazing £10 steak, chips cooked in dripping, extra side salad with blue cheese. Complimentary salted caramel ice cream. Malbec wine was a treat - delicious and great value as well.

    Steaks looked great but the burger I had was fantastic. The price for London is very reasonable. You don’t feel like you have been fleeced at the end of the meal. Would recommend.

    Same steakhouse as the one in Soho. Delicious flat iron steak served with popcorn and a cute mini cleaver. Great value!

    Highly recommended! A very nice steak shop, Flat Iron Steak is signature £13 and ribeye is £20, both are great. Also, the staff was friendly.

    Having lived in Argentina, I'm suitably stuck up about steak. This is one of the best I've had in London - tender and succulent. Oh, and the staff are so genuinely friendly.

    Best value steak in London. Too many great sides, the best has to be the Melanzane alla Parmigiana.

    the beef was delicious but the smallest portion that i've ever had. We ate 2 beefs with a small salad, one chips, 2 sauces, a cider and a beer per 40 pounds.

    You know what you get here. The wait can be pretty long. I put our names down at 6 and it was still a 40 min wait. Any later and it’s hours!!
