Breaking news for all steak snobs of Hong Kong: Two of our city's steakhouses have been named in Upper Cut Media House’s comprehensive list of the World’s 101 Best Steak Restaurants for 2025! Since its first instalment in 2018, this annual list from the London-based media company rounds up the top steak restaurants worldwide and rates them based on their expertise in firing up high-quality steaks.
This year, two Hong Kong steakhouses made the prestigious list, both placing higher than their rankings last year. Open-flame grill restaurant Fireside jumped up 20 spots from last year to land at number 50. Similarly, The Steak House in Regent Hong Kong climbed up 21 spots and placed at number 80 in 2025’s rankings.
So, who took home the top spot? For the second year in a row, Argentina’s Parilla Don Julio was the global winner and nabbed the title of best in South America. As for the rest of the world, Cote in the United States claimed the title of the best in North America; Laia Erretegia in Spain was honoured as the best in Europe; Australia’s Margaret was appointed the best in Asia Pacific; and 11 Woodfire in Dubai took the title of best in the Middle East.
Each steakhouse on the list is evaluated based on eight factors – the quality of meat offered, the selection of meat and the number of steak cuts available for diners, the quality of service and product knowledge, the description of cuts offered on the menu, the restaurant’s wine list, user-friendliness of the restaurant’s reservation system, the restaurant’s online presence, and the interior design of the venue.
