Fantastic in every way, expensive for good reason! Seared Tuna starter amazingly fresh, king crab legs succulent and sweet, Finnish steak full of flavour when cooked to medium, absolutely delicious combined with the smoked tomato salad. You should experience it at least once!

Bit expensive for what it is Upstairs reception area was not fit for a bar waiting area it created a false impression that drinks are complementary which is not the case

Wonderful evening with great food. We had two hours 30 minutes which was just enough time. Needed a larger steak to be honest. It was the best meal we've had in the UK by far.

Best steak in London! Service is excellent as well. We asked for advice on the amount of crab and steak required and it was perfect! Get a selection of the starters because they're all so good!

Excellent meat and service. Prices, especially wine, are on the high-end, especially compared to other prime meat places like Hawksmoor, Gaucho and Barbecoa. Also, no prix fix lunch offer.

Great service, staff are all very friendly & helpful. Astonishing displays of huge sections of beef & whole crabs. It's an all round theatrical experience especially if you're entertaining 22year olds.

The quality of the food doesn't matter when the service is bad. And the food was not good enough to compensate for the lack of service. The stressful staff negatively affekted the whole experience. Very disappointed.

First time eating here. Great place, very cool. pricey though! The menu isn't very clear in this regards and you can easily order things which might give some serious bill shock at the end of the night. If you can handle that, it's all good!

This place is really unbelievable. The food, consisting mainly of crab and various meats was so well cooked and full of flavor that it honestly competes if not betters most dedicated steak houses that have well established names. In addition to this are certain sourced steaks that are not ordinarily found at most steak houses. And it is not only the mains, but sides, starters and deserts that were equally as good including a wine list that is very long including Coravin tastings The staff, while relaxed, were unbelievably helpful and friendly going well beyond what was expected from them. The only reason this does not get 6/6 was the price, but to me honest paying those prices and actually getting the quality that was served made it palatable. Would definitely recommend and go again

Beast was an experience but was certainly overpriced and a bit ridiculous. The steak was good but easily out done by a hawkesmore/goodmans and the crab was very small for the money. Interesting concept and the placed was packed so there are obviously enough people that are happy to pay £60 for two crabs legs!

Lovely restaurant, terrific ambience, not too noisy, comfortable seats, attentive waitresses, great decor and definitely not for vegans ! Excellent steaks, great chips, wonderful portobello mushrooms and a white truffle sauce thrown in for good measure, but............. I have never ever paid as much for two steaks, ever ! £140 for the steaks which I must admit were excellent and about a kilogram of meat, but £140 ??!! Having said that, I don't regret paying this money once a year for meat, but be warned.

some crab and a steak, couple of glasses of normal red wine...£225 a head. Bit of a shock when the bill came. I recon c45% too expensive. Waiter was monosyllabic and charmless. Food is pretty good but go when you are a guest!

Cool atmosphere Good start with a nice drink in the bar, the bartenders knew what they were doing The food is rather expensive but if you're inte food and want to try the best thing , more than just a dinner you should come! We had the octopus as a starter, never had a octopus that well cooked. No rubber here! We had the Australian beef which was the best meet I've ever had! It truly melted in the mouth The truffle chips was extraordinary!! At this point we were really full but we wanted to try the desserts to, what could go wrong? Nothing Pistachio tiramisu - wow.. WOW Go and see for yourself! It's worth the money!
