The Steak House

The staff were helpful and friendly, which made for a welcoming experience. Unfortunately, the steak I ordered rare came out meduim-well done quite disappointing given the nearly $70 price tag. That said, the sides were delicious and helped salvage the meal.

Many places do steaks. Some better than others, but I never have never had anything truly exceptional....until today. Reading other reviews of The Steak House made me visit it with high expectations. We ordered a farm raised 650g Sirloin steak with mushroom sauce and chimichurri sauce as the main for sharing among the 3 of us. For sides charred broccoli, Wagyu fat potato and a ranch salad. And for starters, brioche buns with bone marrow butter. The buns are made in-house and were soft, fluffy, yet had enough bite and texture on its own to be mouthwateringly appetising. Smear on the feather light yet creamy butter and a pinch of coarse salt and the explosion of flavour is just a hint of what is to come. The steak came with the chimichurri sauce gleaming on the side. It was done medium well as I had requested and it was exceptional. The first bite and the lingering winter blues left my being. The meat was melt-in-your mouth, yet a cut above in flavour. Sublime. My 78 year old mum who usually has problems chewing through beef fought with my son and I for the last piece - a phenomenon that never happens, much less over beef. And by the end of the meal, she was beaming and chatty - a demeanour that never even happens when I prepare her favourite home cooked dishes. Even the humble broccoli was mystically flavourful and cooked to perfection with enough crunch and a tantalising deep green. The Wagyu fat potatoes and salad. Standard dinner fare. But even these were made special. Special mention goes to the potatoes which has a light crisp on the outside and the consistency of almost a mash on the inside. It was flavourful because of the Wagyu fat, but not rich, dripping with sickly oil. It was light and balanced and such a treat! Steak lovers will be pleased. I was. And I am fussy. Pair this with never needing to head into the city, pay for parking just to get good steak, and I will come here again and again; of not just for the food, but also the service - which was attentive, anticipatory, and just made me feel at home - even though this was our first visit. If you love steaks, try their dry aged steaks. I know I will for my next visit.......tomorrow! Don't take my word for it. Let your taste-buds be the judge. I'd wager a guess, that "exceptional" will also be your verdict.

Loved everything. From the food to the service to the ambience. My husband and I had a lovely older lady serving us on our engagement anniversary today. Absolutely loved every bite of the food we had!

I've been here twice, the first time the chicken wasn't pan fried but I absolutely loved the just cooked texture and taste of the chicken. It was extremely soft and was lovely but this time it has changed to pan fried I believe? The waiter did tell us the menu has changed just yesterday as they now include dessert. I still like the flavours of the beef tartare, we also ordered the brioche with whipped bone marrow and sirloin that is not pictured below. The restaurant is a lovely separate area from the main pub and other restaurants. The staff are always lovely and willing to help. Did not expect the menu change but food is still lovely as always. Will be back for more :)

We happened to stumble across this restaurant and were quite happy we did. The steak (300g) was excellent. Garlic butter, bone marrow butter was good. We also tried the fish which was fresh and thr base/sauce had mild Indian flavours..went well, not over powering. Id give this restaurant 5 and only havent coz the menu was a little too limited, not many vegetarian options.

Absolutely amazing food and atmosphere. We love coming here, it definitely become one of our regular spots. Special shoutout to Chloe, her service it’s beyond anything we have experienced. Definitely recommend 😊

Group of seven. Steaks all round , entree, desert and wines. Food was excellent. Everything we had was fantastic and will definitely come back. Good value for a restaurant of this quality which clearly understands beef in particular, very well. Also hi to Chloe who looked after us.

PART ONE It’s a little long We booked for Valentines Day lunch. When you enter you walk through a very well presented bottle display pass the beautiful display of steaks in Aging Cabinets = sublime. Service Staff were attentive, friendly & we felt welcome without being smothered. We were seated in a booth. The comfort level surprised me as booths don't usually mix well with my disability. The booth was comfortable, supportive, well maintained &, very clean. The only downside to the ambience & tone of this venue, is the very 'tacky' display of empty wine bottles located on the top shelf between the booths. Once seated we had our drinks order taken & promptly delivered. One of the best dining experiences we’ve shared. One minor hiccup, but we’ll get to that. The menu & simple, but it does contain enough detail for us to be confident to order. We asked questions about our options and the service staff appeared well educated with the menu items. We asked what sauce would be best to go with our steaks & were advised to select the bone marrow butter, as to enjoy the steak as the ‘champion’ flavour & to avoid any of the sauces overpowering the steak seasoning, So I tried the bone marrow butter & Husband selected the confit garlic cream. We’ve never had Beef Crackle before, & we very glad we did. We tried it naked first, no dipping. Imagine the lightness of a prawn crackle, but visually - a weird, deformed alien, coupled with the rich buttery taste of Wagyu and a light salty flavour. Then we added the Davidson plum mayo, oh my pure flavour balanced bliss. Onto brioche & bone marrow butter. Another fine example of rich buttery goodness in layers of sweet fluffy brioche. We dipped our brioche into the generous serve of bone marrow butter. Simple & divine. Our steaks came out & we smelled them before we saw them. We were not disappointed. Crisply seared on the outside and juicy tender on the inside. Both steaks were delivered as ordered, mine- medium & Husband - medium/well done. True perfection. My steak with the bone marrow butter was definitely an excellent choice. I did feel as if the steak had enough seasoning of its own and the bone marrow butter really only over-emphasised the butter & saltiness when combined. Next time I’m definitely choosing the porcini mushroom sauce. Husband absolutely chowed down when his steak was delivered. It was also seasoned well & the sweetness of the confit garlic cream was a perfect contrast to compliment his steak. We paired our steaks with the steamed market greens, macadamia & cashew nut pesto, parmesan & we were not disappointed. Nutty, sharp cheese on perfectly cooked greens. An excellent choice.
