A Steakhouse Gem in the Heart of London
Located in the lively heart of Soho, KöD offers an elevated steakhouse experience in one of London’s most vibrant neighbourhoods. The atmosphere is modern yet warm, with a sleek Scandinavian touch and a lively buzz that makes it perfect for both special occasions and a night out with friends.
From the moment we arrived, we were warmly greeted by Sophie, the manager, who not only welcomed us but also took the time to explain which options were Halal. I really appreciated the attention to detail and the thoughtfulness in making my dining experience Halal-friendly.
We began our evening with Garlic Prawns and Buffalo Chicken Wings. The garlic prawns were plump, juicy, and infused with just the right amount of garlicky richness, while the buffalo chicken wings had that perfect balance of tangy heat and tender meat – a starter selection that set the bar high for the rest of the evening.
For mains, my friend opted for the Japanese Wagyu Sirloin (not Halal) paired with truffle fries. He described it as “sensational” with a melt-in-your-mouth texture and deep, rich flavour. I went for the Halal Australian Sirloin, served with creamy mashed potatoes and steak chips. The sirloin was cooked to perfection, tender, juicy, and perfectly seasoned, and I enjoyed it with a vibrant Chimichurri sauce that added a fresh, herby kick. The kitchen also ensured it was completely Halal-friendly by removing any bacon or non-Halal garnishes, which was greatly appreciated.
Desserts were a treat in themselves. I had the Danish Rød Grød, a classic berry dessert that was refreshing, fruity, and beautifully presented. My friend enjoyed his Fried Apple Pie, which had a golden, crisp pastry shell encasing warm, spiced apple filling, comfort food at its finest.
To accompany our meal, we sipped on delicious mocktails and homemade lemonade, both refreshing and perfectly balanced.
A huge shout-out to the fantastic team – Sophie, Kanice, and Yacine – for making the night special. Sophie’s warm welcome set the tone, Kanice’s recommendations were spot on, and Yacine made sure we were well looked after and enjoying our drinks.
KöD Soho isn’t just another steakhouse; it’s one of London’s finest, with excellent service, mouth-watering food, and Halal-friendly options that make it inclusive for all. Highly recommended!
