Hawksmoor

Steak, Chips, Red Wine

27 Nov 07, 14:48 Beyond expectations

I had high hopes for this place. My friend who works in the city has a taste for the finer things in life, and being a red blooded banker as he is, there is no exception to the rule when it comes to steak.

Time Out voted this place the best steaks in London, and the Metro says it has the "best steaks this side of the bond." This place had a lot to live up to and boy did it.

First thing to mention is that they will get you any cut within 48 hours. If you have a particular desire for a blade steak then just ask, it will be worth it.

I went for their Sirloin, still on the bone, cooked medium rare and weighing 600g. It was heaven. Cooked perfectly, served with a "triple cooked chips" which, if a little on the small size, were otherwise a perfect companion. All washed down with a bottle of Rioja.

If you're going to take me for a meal -take me here.
