When you're as indecisive as I am then a one-dish menu is a dream, and if steak is your fancy then this place is the jackpot. Things are kept very simple here; you tell them what you drink, how you take your steak and voilà. A simple green salad to start and then a serving of perfectly cooked steak with bottomless fries.
If you're not sweating from the meat then it's the extensive list of divine desserts that'll get you. But you needn't worry because not one of the 6 that we ordered wasn't fabulous so maybe ip-dip-doo?
Steak should be simple and this place nails it... You can't book so you'll have to queue if it's busy but it's worth it.
We arrived fairly late so we were ushered straight in, they ask you how you want your steak cooked then disappear off for your starter - Walnut Salad.
This was tasty and light - mine had a little too much dressing which was pretty sharp but overall it was nice!
Then they bring your steak with their own sauce and loads of fries... It was cooked to perfection and delicious. What's also great is that they then bring you the rest which has been kept warm so just when you think you're done, just a tiny bit more arrives. And more fries if you fancy!
My only downside was the service was a little slow for us. We were told it's because they were just about to shut and had four tables (including us) come in, but this excuse fell short when we pointed out the table next to us had come in about ten minutes after us.
That aside though, the food is great. Probably one of the best steak frittes I've ever had...!
