For classic cuts of steak cooked over charcoal and served up in a macho setting (this is the City, after all), this steakhouse is hard to beat. Got an expense account? Use it here.
Don't miss: Magnificent though the meat here is, don't forget about the sides. The truffle fries may not be cheap at £8, but they make the perfect accompaniment to a blow-out lunch.
The menu at this Soho steakhouse is short but inventive, and centred around cuts of cow and luxe sides. Zingy, aromatic cocktails serve as the perfect foil.
Don't miss: Like your meat super-smokey? Go for the 'dirty' sirloin steak, which is seared directly on hot coals.
The Spanish tolerance for vegetarianism is notoriously low, and nowhere more so than this King's Cross tapas bar. Work your way through meaty classics, then order more of your faves.
Don't miss: If you tend towards pork, the presa Iberica – a dark, beefy-looking steak from acorn-fed pigs, is a must.
If you count yourself as an adventurous carnivore, make a beeline for this offal-centric Italian. From bone marrow to testicles, it's all there in full gory glory.
Don't miss: Keen to get under the skin of your dinner? Macellaio's Bermondsey site hosts regular butchery masterclasses.
The pressed linen and glitzy chandeliers at this City steakhouse hark back to a classier time – a vibe that's carried through in expertly grilled cuts of beef and delicate sides.
Don't miss: The restaurant's selection of 'posh' condiments are available to take home, and ought to add a dash of class to your next fry-up.
