Good food bit overpriced. Not a big fan of Wagamama like long tables forcing you to sit next to strangers and having to yell across the eagle to communicate given noise levels.

Most of the smaller steaks were unavailable as they were 'aging' so we had to share a 1kg steak between three of us, which was fine in principle until it came. Was mostly unpleasant, chewy fat, not enough meat to feed three. Seafood was way overpriced. £130 per kilo for crab, the smallest crab being 3kg! Again between 3 people it's a couple of legs each for £130 per head. That's poor value. For a high end restaurant, the communal seating concept doesn't fit although an Empty restaurant in central London on a Friday night says it all. Service was also questionable, had to ask for the menu to be explained, and even then, the waitress didn't do a great job of it as the menus has the head line prices but the boards state what is available, so one is left cross referencing between the menu and the blackboards. Sorry Beast, I won't be coming again, I was embarrassed to have taken my out of town colleagues to your restaurant.

Beef was excellent as too was the wine. Didn't think much of the starters which were very expensive and not really that good. Overall a good night.

Great venue, great staff, great menu, great wine, awesome meat! Galician chateaubriand cooked to perfection and perfect sides. Very quiet today and I might prefer option of private table.

The best meat we've had. The chips are gorgeous too. Don't bother with the starters though - except the shrimp tempura. Finish off with the cinnamon doughnuts. I will be going there again - have to try the crabs!!

Food is incredible although quite expensive it is however, worth the money. The only change I would make would be to change the music slightly as it was quite loud and like club music.

I had an amazing experience at beast. I took my girlfriend there for her 19th birthday and they made it very special for her. The food was very good and the best lobster I have had; the staff were polite and accommodating, the atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming. We do not usually dine in such an establishment because of the high price for our lifestyle but it was a treat well worth the money we spent.

Really cool restaurant with a big selection of meat to choose from. If you're in to the surf and turf theme this is a good choice.

Beast was amazing! Our wine & sommelier were very knowledgable when choosing the wine & what we wanted. To eat we had the wagyu starter, burrata & gyoza. All were delicious. For main we had the delicious truffle chips, the king crab claw & legs that were super fresh & buttery. The ribeye was incredible from the ex dairy cow & chateaubriand really tender. We also had grilled hipsi cabbage & amazing cauliflower carpaccio too. The creme brûlée was lovely but the showstopper dessert was the mini doughnuts. The only thing was the service was a bit slow, once you had ordered they disappeared for a while. Otherwise I would highly recommend and definitely go back.

Amazing seafood in a very cool environment. It was expensive coming in at a higher cost than my last Michelin tasting menu, but we did indulge in a good wine, King Crab, Lobster, Dessert and the recommended matching Dessert wine.

Quality food and service, and a nice selection of drinks/cocktails. Different, but lovely set up with long banqueting tables. Only drawback would be the price, extremely expensive.

It's an experience but not one I will be repeating. A place for bankers and the elite with prices to match. There's also a lack of finesse. For example the cheeseboard was a mess dumped on the table with little explanation of what the cheeses were. When you are paying this kind of money you would expect consistent service through the courses.

The best steak and crab, and service. A slick and reassuringly expensive operation. Go for the Finnish meat for something different. Mix and match with the crab legs for a feast.

First things first. Beast is very expensive.No doubt about it. It's expensive. That said, the crab and steak are absolutely delicious. Cabbage and chip side orders also very good. I would recommend skipping starters and having the king crab as your first course and steak with sides as second. We had the Galician and it's one of the best steaks I've ever had.

Food merely okay,drinks absolutely overpriced and seating arrangement for profit rather than atmosphere as you are cramped onto long tables. Service was friendly and attentive albeit a little bit rushed.. probably wouldn't care to come back.

Expensive? Yes. But, hands down, the best steak in London. The interesting wine list and the attentive and polite staff compliment the experience. A must go for all serious steak lovers.

The seating is church style benches, which leaves you sitting almost on top of the person next to you. I didn't like this as there was a lack of privacy and several times the people from 2 parties beside involved themselves in our conversation. Other than that, the food, drink and staff were amazing. We had crab legs to start which I would go back for alone. I then had a bone in ribeye (800g) which was truly sensational accompanied by a selection of sides that we shared. Summary - good for casual friends night out, not so good for taking a business customer where you would expect a little more space. I think it was also expensive and maybe even overpriced. Scoring it so high though as the food was great.
