Walking into Hawksmoor feels like stepping into a steak lover’s heaven. I went for the ribeye. It’s perfectly seared over live-fire charcoal, paired with truffle butter and sweet potato mash (every bite was rich, juicy, and utterly satisfying).
I washed it down with a bold Rioja, but their Hawksmoore Martini and Shaky Pete’s Ginger Brew are brilliant if you want a cocktail twist. The ginger and whisky combo really made the flavours of the steak pop in a way I didn’t expect.
Pro Tip:
For steak lovers who want to try 35-day dry-aged beef, Hawksmoor’s Sunday Roast is a must. It features succulent beef, giant Yorkshire puddings, and rich bone marrow gravy. Served from 12:00 PM – 5:00 PM, it’s the perfect hearty British feast to enjoy with friends and family.

At Gaucho, the steaks steal the show. I tried the ribeye and it was tender, juicy, and packed with flavour. Truffle butter mushrooms, sweet potato mash, and crispy fries added their own twist to the meal.
Drinks are just as exciting, like drinking at a sports bar. I opted for a bold Malbec that brought out the richness of the beef. Meanwhile, their Wagyu Martini and Miso Mango Sour cocktails offered a flavourful twist that made the whole experience feel indulgent.

If you want to elevate your meal at Gaucho’s, make sure to try their best sauces:

Meet Argentinian Steakhouse knows how to make flavours shine. From ribeye to fillet, each cut comes off the grill tender, juicy, and full of flavour. The sides really round things out too—garlic butter mushrooms are rich and savoury, and the peppercorn adds a spicy punch.
Drinks like a bold Malbec or Shiraz deepens the richness of the meat, while a G&T or a classic Old Fashioned balances everything with a smooth finish. The meal becomes hearty and balanced with every sip.

Toro’s offers top-tier cuts like porterhouse, ribeye, and sirloin through their “48-Day Beef” line. Each meat is matured for a long enough period to concentrate flavour without losing its juiciness.
The sides and extras mirror that boldness in flavour too. You can think of garlic parmesan truffle fries that hit you with umami, loaded sweet potato fries with a spicy kick.

If you think Toros is all steak, think again. Their new brunch menu on weekends, from 10:00 AM – 3:00 PM, proves it’s far more than that. They offer classics like Shakshuka, eggs Benedict, Turkish eggs, and more.
