Beast

Beast Restaurant Review If you’re looking for an extraordinary dining experience, Beast is the place to go. From the moment you walk in, the classy environment sets the stage for an unforgettable evening. One unique feature that stands out is the communal seating arrangement; sharing a long table with other guests adds an exciting social element while preserving the restaurant’s exclusive ambiance. The cocktails are exceptional. Their Old-Fashioned is perfectly balanced, and the Whiskey Sour is crafted with precision—both highly recommended. When it comes to the sides, the truffle chips are a must-try. Unlike many places that simply use truffle oil, Beast takes it up a notch by grating fresh truffle over the chips, giving them a wonderfully rich flavor. The main attraction here, however, is undoubtedly the steak. Beast offers a remarkable selection of dry-aged cuts, each one cooked to perfection. For wine lovers, the variety of options is impressive, with bottles that complement every dish beautifully. Service here is top-notch. The staff is attentive, knowledgeable, and clearly committed to ensuring guests have the best possible experience. If you’re after a dining experience that combines exceptional food, drinks, and a welcoming yet luxurious atmosphere, Beast won’t disappoint.

A truly great afternoon feast was enjoyed by me and my friends. We had the Wagyu and the Australian chateaubriand served with 3kg of the King crab which was absolutely majestic. For the dessert we had the cheesecake with pistachio crumble which was finished within a minute. Also a big thank you to the staff who looked after us that day. Looking forward to my next visit here.

Loved the place!! First time coming definitely not the last. Great place and atmosphere, the food was just to die for, we went for the scallops, steak and King crab claws. Mark our waiter was very helpful and understanding, he helped us in every thing we asked about. Aman the manager was also attentive and very friendly.

An unforgettable evening at The Beast! The steak was simply divine – perfectly cooked, incredibly flavorful, and melted in my mouth. Lucio, our waiter, was exceptional; knowledgeable, attentive, and made the experience even more special. The atmosphere is lively and the service is impeccable. A must-visit for steak lovers!

Beast Restaurant truly lives up to its name! From start to finish, our experience was incredible. We started with the crab, which was absolutely amazing – fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. You can tell they really know their seafood! The steak was equally impressive – juicy, tender, and full of flavor, cooked exactly to our liking. It’s clear that the kitchen staff puts a lot of care into sourcing and preparing high-quality ingredients. Beyond the food, the service was exceptional. The staff was attentive, friendly and welcoming, making sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. It really felt like they went above and beyond to make our evening special. Overall, Beast Restaurant is a gem. If you’re a fan of high-quality seafood and steak in a comfortable and classy setting, this place is a must-visit. Already looking forward to my next visit!

I recently had an exceptional dining experience at beast. From the moment we walked in, everything was perfect. We were warmly welcomed, and they offered to take our coat, adding a personal touch right from the start. First, we had the fresh oysters – incredibly fresh and flavorful. Then, we enjoyed the scallop, which was cooked to perfection and bursting with flavor. For the main course, we had the Nebraskan bone-in ribeye steak, which was nothing short of amazing, juicy, and tender. The truffle chips added a delicious touch of luxury to the meal. We also ordered wild mushrooms, and they were unlike any others we've had – a delightful and unique addition. The service was exceptional, with attentive and friendly staff ensuring our evening was flawless. Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and I can't wait to return. Highly recommended!

Beast in London offers a luxurious dining experience with exceptional meat options. The quality of ingredients, expertly crafted dishes, and warm ambiance make it perfect for special occasions. Impeccable service adds to the charm. A must-visit for food enthusiasts! The wine selection is astonishing and the somalier is an expert!

Amazing experience! Paulo and team were amazing! Very memorable 5 star experience and a great place to indulge in such incredible food. Also they make the best espresso martinis! Will definitely be back and recommend Beast for all personal or business occasions.

The fanciest dinner to date. Tables were just very long rows so you do get the chance of sitting with strangers, which we did! Sat with a night club owner and had great conversation. The burrata was my favorite. We got waygu as well. 5/5 for sure. We definitely enjoyed ourselves.

Whoaaaaa built for corporate credit cards only. Price per portion is crazy high. Sides are disappointing. Sommelier and wine list were the highlight.

Do your home work. Look at the menu prior to arriving to have proper expectations. I'd say I had a great experience overall all thanks to the reconnaissance. I highly suggest to arrive a tad bit early and have a drink at the bar trying one of the in house aged/stored adult beverages before being seated and just have a look around. Once you are seated, the server will try really-really hard to upsell. Ignore all that noise and order what you decide. Don't let the server order for you. Have it like you want it! Beautiful concept but the I had to knock off one star for the shoulder to shoulder experience. Overall 4.0+ Cheers!

Just amazing. Great seafood, wine and steaks. And they sell their steaks sliced so you can share and compare how different steaks from around the world compare. I would definitely come again. Not cheap for sure come early as the empty Restaurant has a unique charm tonit

Went to Beast for a work dinner and we got the tasting menu which isn't cheap but so worth it. Firstly, the table setting is beautiful! They're long tables with lots of candles; candles on the tables, candles on stands above the table- felt like a big Christmas lunch. It wasn't too crowded on a Wednesday night. Once we were seated our drinks and food orders (and adjustments to tasting menu as I don't eat beef) were noted. I started with their coriander margarita and it was delicious! Took me back to LA! The only downside of the meal was that our first course took about 45mins to come out- we were starving! But then came out the beautiful scallop- oh so good and the sauce it comes in, delicious! The king crab was soooo good- so fresh, so flavorful. Also the prawn- it was massive and juicy. Others on my table really enjoyed the steak and wagyu tataki too. Highly recommend for a celebratory night out

One of the top steakhouses in the world. And I've been to MANY globally. The quality of the steak is unbelievable. Will be back again for sure.

Menu, food, service, literally everything is above expectation. The seafood, the meat, above all the king crab.

Amazing selection of food ! Amazing steaks, Crab legs and delicious truffle sauce to take flavor to a whole new level ! The starters were very good, we had the burrata, fried prawns, the scallops were too tiny for my taste. The crab legs were heavenly, juicy and delicious. Their truffle sauce was equally amazing w the beef and with the crab If you're into juicy fatty tender meat then go for the Japanese Wagyu ribeye, if you don't want fat, my friend swear by the chateau briogn (can't spell it) it was too tough for me. The Australian Wagyu was rich with flavor, but not as heavy and rich as the Japanese Wagyu, but it's filling. For 6 people, 6 starters, several sauces, 6 crab legs, 2 claws, and 4 steaks, and some waters no alcohol. The bill with service cake up to £1,061. So £177 per person. It's pricey but the food was great and the ambiance and service was terrific ! Definitely worth it!

One of my friends recommended this place. I went to Beast at about 6pm for a casual dinner. What special about Beast is their live king crabs (they are humongous. However I didn't taste it because I'm allergic to crabs). The environment is comfy and relaxing. It fits for most of the occasions--whether for dates or business affairs etc. Waitresses and waiters are very cordial and friendly in this restaurant. ... I ordered a USDA Chateaubriand 500g steak cooked medium well. The steak was succulent and delicious. Highly recommend it.

If I reviewed Beast in 2016, it would've been a raving 5-star review. Instead, my review comes after a very average dinner in December 2017. They restaurant was overbooked which meant we were sitting in between two large parties with another couple squeezed across from us. One of the things that made Beast unique and special was that it was never *really* crowded. They took great pride in ensuring you had space to experience the meal with your group. It also meant excellent service, the ability to call ahead and reserve a piece of meat or lobster/crab depending on your plans for the night and there was an expected level of professionalism from diners and staff alike. It seems that the restaurant is now a tourist trap with kids running up and down the hallways, no dress code and average food. I hope Beast can turn it around before it's too late.

Wonderful atmosphere, attentive waitresses, good food. I like it.

I absolutely loved this place!!! The decor was great. The staff - just perfect. The food was fantastic. It's not often I give 5 out of 5 but for me this place did it. Everyone in my part of five loved it! The steak was flavourful and the lobster very yummy!!! The truffled fries- just wow! One of the best meals I had in 2017. The only negative - the huge bill at the end. This would stop me going back again so readily.

Porterhouse 450-550 gm is to die for! Make sure to have it medium since it's dryaged, medium well is a bit dry. Truffle fries are a must to complete the mouth wattering porterhouse

The elusive 5-star Yelp review, ladies and gents... here it is! THIS. PLACE. Oh my days, let me tell you all about it. The decor: like a sexy older gentleman who doesn't have to try too hard or remind you he's on Forbes millionaire's list. It smells like exclusivity, but sans-pretentiousness. The lighting is low, so you can feel warm and fuzzy without having to be. The welcoming drinks are snazz. AND THE FOOD. If there ever was a reason not to become vegan, I can give you TWO. Their Norwegian crab. And their Australian beef. And actually here's a third; the octopus. I dont know what to say other than it's among the top 5 pieces of meat I've ever put in my mouth EVER, including that really hot guy from the gym, and I'm picky as FUCK, And the truffle fries. And the deconstructed cheesecake. And the tempura prawn. And the burrata. Lord have mercy of my thigh gap, this place is everything your palate needs. EXCELLENT to divide the boys from the men too, by the way. It's not cheap but it is delish :)

Beast is about the details, of eating and decor. As soon as you walk in you are offered a glass of Ruinart Champagne, a formalized coat checkin and then you head downstairs to see their bar with amazing large bulbous mysterious liquid dispensers and dried citruses, perhaps to make a delicious cocktail, but we would never find out as we stuck to champagne. The dining room at Beast is BEAUTIFUL. Long farm tables, cosy leather chairs, and the room is lit entirely by candles that are on raised platforms throughout the room. Then there are the adorable bibs that you can wear with the beast logo, perfect for de-shelling the crab. For dinner we decided on the Japanese A1 waygu, 2 king crab legs, foie gras and crab gyoza and white asparagus for our vege dish. The gyoza came out first and was super tasty, you could taste more of the crab than the foie, but this was great in my book. Next the crab, waygu and asparagus arrived. We decided to start with the crab. I have to say I have NEVER in my lifetime had king crab this good. It was sweet, succulent, and so fresh that I wished we hadn't ordered anything but a whole crab. The butter sauce that it came with was delicious, I kept pouring it all over my plate to try to get as much surface area of the pieces of crab I had coated by this. Next we decided to try the waygu. This was the first time I had ever tried Japanese style waygu and I was super excited to find... while the texture and the cook was perfect, it was a bit over salted. We would tell the waiter later and he suggested scrapping some of the salt off but overall it was ok. Quelle disappointment. Later on we would put this into a doggie bag to take home and I made steak and eggs with it the next day using the eggs to remove some of the salt flavor. Can you imagine? Using Japanese A1 waygu and taking it home to make steak and eggs? Pfffft. I hated myself for that, but nevertheless that's what I did. The asparagus was a nice finish for the night. If I had to do this night over at Beast however, I would have gotten the full King Crab and skipped the beef all together. The crab... yeah, beast has me a believer that king crab is for great restaurants and not just crappy buffets.

An elegant restaurant in a busy part of town . . . Service is top notch with friendly and fun staff. We were seated at one their long tables to be shared with other guests but still felt like an intimate setting. Sharing is recommended so . . . we ordered the king crab legs (the cut them for you!), bone in rib eye special, a dozen oysters, miso glaze aubergine (one of the most complex tastes . . . mind blowing), fresh tomato salad. Portions were enough to make you satisfied but not overly full. Seafood was very fresh and meat excellently prepared. Surprisingly the sides almost out did the meat, which at a place named "Beast" showed their love for ALL food.

Good food and ambiance until you realize it's a tourist trap. After spending over $500 we were asked to leave because there was another group of people waiting for our table. We'd literally ordered dessert and before it arrived a gentleman came over to say we would need to move to the bar so they could (make more money?). We were stunned. Imagine asking people to order more food, and when they do, they are asked to leave.

If there ever was a true meaning to the words 'food-porn' this is it, especially if you like meat. Steaks. I've eaten steaks in so many different restaurants, many 'award winning' places, many 'best stakes in London', and still I've yet to find a piece of beef that melts in my mouth as smoothly as the Argentinian monsters from Beast do. It's probably something like, 7cm thick, rare cooked (but not a drop of blood to be seen), it hangs in huge refrigerators to dry with chunk of salts and its temperature is accurately measured and checked throughout the grilling. But I digress, for Beast is so much more than the best steak you've ever had. According to the size of your party, your starter will be a quarter or half of a parmesan wheel. It's the good stuff, the real deal. I should know, I am Italian. You're given a small scalpel to dig your way through the cheese, which comes served with pickled artichokes and onions, extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar. They like to take their time between courses, so you'll have to be patient. It's really really hard not to eat to fullness the whole cheese thing, but do resist the temptation. Once the steak arrives it's peace at last. One thing to add to what I've already said is that it's served with an array of absolutely delicious sides: no fries, this isn't your cheap burger place you dirty sods. It's vegetable delicacies, amongst which I feel compelled to commend the delicious balsamic smoked tomato salads, which I must remember to ask the chef about next time because I MUST know how to make them at home. If you're an average human being with an average sized stomach, you'll feel pretty full after the steak. However the third course is yet to come: a massive crab, already cracked open but rearranged together to look pretty. You're given tools to dig into it - which you'll likely forsake in favour of your hands. This too comes with many sides and two (if I'm not mistaken) choices of sauce. I regret to say that both times I went, at this stage I was so full of delicious heavenly steak that I could not *really* appreciate how good the crab was, because it was SO good. But by then I was just shoving it in my mouth hoping it would fit. After the third course is also done and dusted, you get to pick between 3 different desserts: I always go for the deconstructed cheescake. There's something so silly about the idea of a deconstructed cheescake that I love, and also it's delicious. All the above is at a set price of £75 per head. Excluding drinks. Yes, it's a lot, but DAYUM it's worth it. Need to go back for a third visit as soon as possible, I need steak in my veins.

Amazing food and service! Prepare your pockets!!! The big ling shared tables are a put off though. Totally worth going!

10 stars! Absolutely the most amazing Wagyu beef we have ever had. Just cooked perfectly! We also had crab for the group! Delicious! They have 10 pound crabs in the water tanks! Excellent wine list. Lots of variety to choose from. Excellent service! We were very happy with the service as our waiter was very helpful and professional. Will be back when we return to London

Not very fancy atmosphere, basically everybody shares the same big table. The king crab tastes awesome but the steak is very average and both quite over priced. option for cocktails is not many and over £15 per drink.

Short version: The Goodman family still serves good food. But compared to Goodman Steakhouse and Burger & Lobster, Beast rings in last b/c I can't bring myself to pay £27/crab leg (though its a novel thing for London). And I really don't think their Beast Experience is good value for the food you actually get, even though you save money (why? read on!). Yes, the food is tasty, but think grilled lobster is tastier than king crab leg... so I'd rather visit their other 2 restaurant groups. ==== Its hard to get fresh live seafood in London, but when you do get it, understandably it comes at a premium. Beast is the first restaurant to offer king crab legs all year long (I think), with big tanks showcasing these giant Norwegian crabs. When we got there, we were seated at a large communal table with bench seats which runs through the restaurant, end to end - so ladies, be careful when you're wearing skirts! I was pretty sure I wanted their Beast Experience for £85/person (or £170/couple + gratuity): 2 king crab legs, and 400 gram steak, which comes with assorted pickles and onions to start, potatoes, salad, and dessert. So its a helluva lotta food, and yes you are saving - if the menu actually has the stuff that you want to eat. I didn't care much for the pickles, potatoes, and neither one of us were captivated by their dessert - so a la carte it was. Between the 2 of us, we ordered: 2 king crab legs (£54) 600 gram bone-in ribeye (£54) 2 shrimp tempura (£6) tuna tartare (£6) 2 Crab & foie gras gyoza (£6) House salad (£7) Sparkling water + old fashioned: £17 Final total for a spread more interesting than the beast experience: £175 including tip. The crab legs are served on a giant platter, they were tasty with melted butter - I didn't think was worth it. I'd rather have grilled lobster..! Ribeye - cooked perfectly, and one of my fav parts of the meal. The meat was incredibly delicious, and I'm reminded again of why I like Goodman Steakhouse. The other highlight was their house salad with smoked tomatoes. I've never had smoked toms before, but they were seriously some of the best stuff I've ever had. The rest of the appies (tempura, tuna tartare, and foie gras gyoza) were forgettable. The foie gras in the gyoza had melted through, I couldn't detect any hint of it.. though to be honest, I think even if it did - maybe its not the best pairing with crab since it usually carries such an intense flavor on such light meat. That being said, I think the crab probably needed to be left on its own. Tartare was way too small, and I'd rather go to a Japanese restaurant for the tempura. Nothing wrong with it.. I don't think there's anything about it to make me want to order it again. So at the end, we came away completely stuffed. Andrew had a larger share of steak, but even I was completely full (and we're pretty big eaters). The steak and salad was still my favorite part, so I'd rather go back to Goodman's, and get my ribeye / lobster tail for £50, along with a more interesting menu and appetizer spread. Edit: it seems that earlier this year, the price was still at £75 but there seemed to be more interesting veggie sides.

Beast is hidden in an old unfashionable quarter of town in an unmarked town house. The entrance is guarded by a giant bronze beast and a single black clad receptionist. From the stark entrance way with its giant glass windows one descends into the dark catacombs below. There one is paraded past a selection of giant glass cabinets. The first containing giant pieces of steak prime (in no way is this resembling dismembered body parts) ... The second set of cabinets houses racks of live crabs (again n in no way does this resemble a monstrous collection of denizens from the deep skittering and clicking) ... The final collection of cabinets assembled in a maze like configuration is host to a seemingly endless parade of potions and tinctures (this may be the wine cellar in disguise). Having made it this far one may pause a while if it is too early to be seated in a dark anti chamber between the glass cabinets and the large banqueting area. We however were whisked swiftly onwards ("Denn die Todten reiten schell" seems to be whispered in the darkness). Seating is at one of the Cyclopean banqueting tables. The lighting mainly coming from the wax encrusted candelabra scattered around the room or the oil candles suspended from the ceiling. In the distance the cooking staff (would servants seem the more appropriate term?) Can be seen labouring to cook giant pieces of meat. Food will appear upon the table served in large silver dishes and the plates to eat off are old style oval plates. A few iron heavy vegetables will be served to accompany the fat(cheese) or protein (steak and crab) but no new world starch ... Even the simplest of waters will be poured from old cognac bottles ... The sense that one has slipped from the modern world into some past filled with the rending of flesh from bone by teeth. The gentleman are almost as bejewelled as the women. With rings, watches and glinting metals upon their shirts. This is no place for the new and fashionable but is a home to old soulless things in young flesh. Come to feast on ... Well if that all sounds a bit melodramatic feel free to visit Beast and see if you come away with a different impression. Just to be clear about the food there are only two things worth eating here the steak and the crab ... The steak is USDA prime ... And the crab Norwegian king crab and rather obviously very fresh ... You will pay for it £75 a head ... It is fantastic quality ... Nothing else is worth eating ... A bit harsh on the deserts but they add little value to the meal other than sugar. You will be totally surrounded by city crowd ... Feel free to play spot the man without cuff links ... I scored zero on that game and the place was full. Wine list has a few token wines sub 40 quid ... And a lot more in the hundreds. Goodman's knows what type of person wants to sit in a darkened catacomb tearing their own food apart with ones hands ... And you the reader know if that is you ... But seriously waste no stomach space on anything but the main ... The cheese et al are just there to fill time whilst your meat is cooked ... Oh and the truffle sauce is good ... The crab is pretty high salt ... Stumping out into the night afterwards and being surrounded by the bright lights of a modern city and gazing around at all those who walk by unaware of what lurks so near is a troubling experience. If only they knew ...

The deconstructed cheesecake was so good. Everything else is what you would expect from a nice restaurant. The service was good and they had an outdoor area too. We had a reservation for lunch but the place was pretty empty, they said it gets full at night.

This is a restaurant for people who want to reduce the number of decisions that they need to make. The only decision is whether you want to pay ￡75 for dinner at a big banquet table in a Marleybone basement guarded by a big wooden bear. Ok, yes. If you've gotten past the guard and the receptionist, Beast has already made the food decision for you. You are going to have the Parmesan, Artichokes, Pickled Onions and Olives as starters. Then you are going to have the King Crab and Porterhouse Steak for your main. Then you will have some dessert, if you still eat carbs and sugar. If you are coming to Beast, you should know that you don't get very many carbs here. Now the real decision. What wine to drink. After you walk down the stairs and are confronted by a meat locker and a crab aquarium, you find a bar on the left and the wine on the right. It's an incredible selection. After all, you need to pair a good White Burgundy with your Crab, and a good Syrah with your Porterhouse. Get a tour of the kitchen if you can. The way they cook the steak is incredible. You need to see it to believe it. I look forward to going back, especially if someone else is paying!

One of the best restaurant in London, crab is amazing and also the cheese cake!! Love it

Very cool atmosphere and the service was pretty excellent. Wagyu tataki was really nice. The king crab was absolutely the best I've tasted. Quite an experience seeing that massive crab come to the table. Steaks were delicious as well. They came out super rare. Not a bad thing, but would have liked a little more texture/char. Truffle chips were stellar. deconstructed cheesecake was pretty amazing. If you are looking for a memorable feast, this is it.

There are great and elaborated reviews below so i'm gonna make this simple for you: If you're willing to spend on the ridiculously overpriced menu then you're in for a treat.

Simply the best food. This is my second time coming to Beast and it never disappoints. It has something for everyone and is truly worth every penny. Make sure you try the steak, crab and mushrooms! So good!

Great steak and king crab. There are not a lot of choices on the menu but each and every one are superb. Be ready to spend some $$ though.

Norwegian King Crab and Nebraskan Angus Beef, simplicity at its best, I want to go back for more!!

Beast's quality can not be questioned, they have delivered by far the best crab dish as far as the London standard. However, the two major questions for me is the decor and the price. They only have sharing tables and benches for diners so do expect sitting with strangers which is not always ideal. Also, regarding the cost, you will be looking paying at least £100pp with wine and that is fine dining territory. Will I rather have a tasting menu with a glass of wine in a 1 Michelin starred restaurant for the same price?

For years we did not eat steak in London but now with Beast we go whenever we have time. We love the atmosphere with the long tables and the amazing selection of cuts of meat, wines and the incredible king crab. It is not as easy to get in these days- we now have to book well in advance. The servers are still fun and polite.

My husband and I spent just one night in London on the way back from our honeymoon. My husband found this place on trip advisor and it was rated in the top 2% of the 17,000 restaurants. I can definitely see why. Be prepared to spend money, but definitely worth the experience! We didn't have reservations but got there early. I would certainly recommend making reservations if you decide to check it out as it fills up fast and it isn't a fast dining experience. Don't expect a quiet table in the corner, the tables are upscale picnic type tables yet somehow still manage to offer the ability to have an intimate conversation. While you wait for your meal they bring you cheese, artichoke hearts and olives to munch on. The meal itself comes with veggies (beets, carrots) as well as a salad. The steaks are flown in from Nebraska. Be sure to wear the bib they give you because you may want to pick up the bone and eat every last piece on it! The crab, spectacular. Made it even more delicious that I got to hold one and learned a little bit about them from the guy pulling them out of the tank. Dessert is included, the deconstructed cheesecake was amazing!!! We had so much fun here. We often dine at Ruth's Chris Steakhouse or Donovan's or Flemming's. Beast puts itself in a category of its own and made our only meal in London absolutely unforgettable!

Epic fresh King crab legs! Best i have ever had in 35 years of eating king crab at every opportunity. Excellent Ribeye, easily best in London. All other food rubbish. Eat crab and steak and be happy. Don't waste time calories or money on anything else. Very good wine list for Californian wine, do try some. OK swiss lager. The Service is good and the refectory tables fun and its even healthy... Should mention the crabs are live, kept in nice tanks for you to look at, my kids love them...

Beast is sensational. The best, largest crab you'll ever eat, matched with as good a steak as you'll get anywhere. Best to go there at least four handed, due to the seating arrangements , consisting of a few very long wooden tables . Don't let that put you off, Beast is a 'must visit' , quite pricey though .

This is by far our favorite restaurant this trip. Ambient to food to service, nothing to complain. The price is a bit high but heck, this is London, everything is expensive! If you're a party of 4, order the whole live king crab. We will definitely go back.

This is definitely a must-try restaurant, especially if you have an gigantic appetite. There is only one order option here - the £75pp fixed price menu. This includes an appetizer platter, all you can eat steak and Norwegian King Crab, a variety of vegetable sides, and dessert. This was without a doubt one of the best steaks I've had in London, I only wish I had room to eat more of it. The crab was delicious as well - and enormous! Everything was cooked perfectly. I actually didn't expect much out of the dessert, but it lived up to the high standards set by the steak and crab. Expect to leave Beast in a food coma. The restaurant is definitely not cheap - dinner and wine came out to be ~£130pp. Was it worth it? I'd say yes, for the experience and a special evening out - but please don't invite friends here without warning them about the price tag unless you plan to foot the bill (definitely wasn't expecting to spend this much on a "casual" dinner with friends). My one complaint has to do with the tables - I don't mind the communal seating but the tables are so wide it was nearly impossible to speak to to or hear my friends sitting across from me. I guess that didn't matter so much once the food comes since everyone is busy stuffing their face. Overall I had a fantastic experience and would recommend this restaurant. I am interested in seeing if this concept lasts though, the food is amazing but I have a hard time imagining many people will make this a regular spot given the lack of other food options and £100+ price tag.

Best steak ever! food was super good, did not regret for a second spending that money! Definitely coming back! Place is noisy, but its very different from most restaurants, huge tables cosy lighting, open kitchen, crabs on a display, service was very good! i definitely recommend it for meat lovers!

Crazy over priced menu! The food was nice though and it's a lovely venue but it's very well hidden with no signs to announce it! If you can get a tour of the kitchen to see how they cook the steak, Id recommend it

If you have never tried live king crab, you are missing out. It tastes so unlike the frozen ones you get elsewhere. The meat is incredibly soft and sweet. Beast is a great place to bring your male business friends. It feels both exclusive and buttoned down in a country club, secret handshake kind of way. It is not a good place to bring a date. The tables are so wide it is like sitting across two normal tables at any other restaurant. With a 75 quid price tag for the normal steak and crab (plus starters run anothe 15-20 each and wine can be unlimited), this is marketed towards business dining.
