    Great steakhouse with lovely and friendly staff. We had the calamari as a starter and that was cooked and seasoned perfectly. My steak was cooked well and seasoned nicely too. Overall, a great experience if you're looking to enjoy a good chunk of meat :)

    Amazing beef. The menu is limited but the meat is delicious and cooked to perfection. Service is friendly, slightly on the slow side. Nice atmosphere in the restaurant.

    I've been to this establishment many times over the years and my father attended it's original opening in Albert St. It's always served top notch food albeit at a top notch price. That said, I've never yet had a disappointing visit. This particular instance I had a Sirloin cooked in Garlic whilst my partner had an Eye Fillet plus we shared some grilled onions & some grilled mushrooms. As always excellent. No hesitation whatsoever recommending the place.

    Solid steakhouse with no fuss food, good service and love that they offer fried eggs on their steak. I had the Sirloin, which was cooked really nicely with good char and red on the inside

    Large open grill kitchen in the middle of the restaurant. As a result, there is a slightly greasy and smoky smell everywhere. You can also choose your own cuts of meat at the counter. Huge steaks at a fair price. However, very long waiting times. Meat is served first. It is almost cold by the time the side dishes arrive.

    Really good steak perfectly cooked however we would have loved to start with a dozen oysters, share a steak (as the are huge) and add some sides. Unfortunately rather than a minimum spend we had to have 2 mains so just had 2 steak mains and no sides as it came with a salad. Really good but we would have enjoyed more dishes and would have spent more!

    We were looking for a great place for dinner near our hotel and this place was fantastic! The place was packed but the wait was only 30 minutes so they moved quickly. And you can see the steaks in the fridge and grilling right as you enter. The meats were huge and very buttery and juicy. I had the lamb rump which was very flavorful. My husband had the Scotch steak which he enjoyed. New Zealand meat is very tasty. We topped up with garlic bread (very garlicy) and mint peas (also delicious).

    Finally made it to the Angus steak house 😁 I got a Sirloin with an egg on top, salad & chips on the side - the perfect steak meal. That was a mean feed and I would go back again. Thank you for the food.

    Our first steak house restaurant was delicious to the core. Myself and my sons had Scotch fillet steak (medium BBQd to perfection) with egg and added sides of creamy mushrooms, fried onions and fries. Desert was nice. Service was top notch.

    To be honest, customer service was what really brought the review rating down. I felt extremely unwelcome as well as my other family members and the service was absolutely disappointing. I saw one of the waitress’ simply chuck the salad on another persons table. You would expect people serving you to at least be kind or smile and feel welcomed but I felt the exact opposite. It felt uncomfortable and as if I was being ignored and looked down on from their words and attitude. The beef was alright, not the best. We asked for medium well but got medium rare with blood oozing out which wasn’t very pleasant. Will probably not come back here again.

    Delicious! Was referred to this restaurant by my Airbnb host and I’m so grateful! Steaks are DELICIOUS but hands down, their Beef Dip (aka French Dip) sandwich is the BEST! Staff is friendly & kind - highly recommend if you are in Auckland!

    We had the most amazing experience from the moment we set foot in the door, we were greeted by the Chef/ lovely owner at the grill in our own language and then the wider staff team. We felt like we were being welcomed into their home, the food was devine, we had the sirloin and t-bone, the steaks cooked to perfection. The experience of picking out our own steak in the kitchen was a experience in itself. Our sides were just as good especially the salad. Thank your Angus Steak House, we are glad we found you and definitely won’t be the last time we see you. Fa’afetai, Fa’afetai lava

    Got there without a booking and we underestimated how busy it would be but we were so hyped up, we were happy to wait 20 minutes. The cooking itself is a show, so fascinating to see how the chef cooks everything and he can remember which is rare, which is medium etc. The portions are big! No miserable little piece of steak at all. At least 500gm guaranteed. The sides are just as delicious. Husband swears by the jacket potato, I am in love with the Café de Paris Butter! Kids can go there, but it's only worth it if they have a big appetite. You don't want to pay $26 for them to take one bite and shrug the old _"I'm full"_ #murder This is a place to save. Our regret is to not have visited this place before. It's lively, full of people, good music and the chef is a side show all along. Absolutely fantastic!

    Fantastic meat.. Nice grill. I was very well welcome also without booking they could fins a place for me.. maybe Thursday is not a very very busy day. One small improvement would be to serve the main dish at the same time with the rest of the side dishes. I was almost finish my email when they bring the side dishes..

    This place is a hidden gem located in an alley. Whenever I travel to Auckland, I always have my 7pm dinner at Angus. The staff are wonderful and the steak selection is the best. Angus is more casual than other steakhouses in Auckland, which makes it even more appealing. My favourite menu is eye fillet steak with grilled onions, fries, salad and peppercorn sauce. With a Steinlager Pure, it is a real treat. Just don't sit at table 34, because that's my "reserved" seat :)

  • 4/5 Rook De M. 1 year ago on Google
    Tried the sirloin, the lamb rump and the sauteed mushrooms. Great price to portion and tasty. Likely to return, hence the 4*. Only reason i haven't left a 5* is i have no point of comparison, at time of writing i would consider this my go to steakhouse in Auckland.

    Exceptionally loud. Full of drunk, obnoxious, misogynistic, white men. Waited 10 minutes to be seated, 30 minutes to order, then an hour for food. The meat was sub par. Sizzling stones were cold by the time they reached the table. Sides were basic and I’d make better at home. Servers all looked like they wanted to quit. Overall a horrible experience compared to the old days.

    Just finished THE most succulent, flavoursome and delicious eye fillet I’ve had in about 8 years! I search out steaks all around Australia and the world but on my 1st visit to AKL in ages tried here. Just magnificent Make sure you plan your arrival time. Thought it was going to be quiet but ended up bustling by the time I left. Check google for “busy times”

    Excellent value, huge 500g block of beef (I had the Scotch steak) perfectly cooked from the open plan kitchen. Add in a side and a soft drink and still only came to around NZ$70

    Service was great with friendly staff. The steak was served on a hot plate which will continue to cook the meat. Steak quality is not super great but value for money. Worth coming for and plenty of seats available

  • 5/5 Christian S. 3 months ago on Google • 36 reviews New
    Eye fillet, jacketed potato with sour cream and butter on the side and a sparkling water. That was the order four nights in a row. Excellent food and staff that makes you feel like family every time you walk in. What more do you want from a restaurant? Every steak was cooked perfectly, the potato was tasty and service came with a smile. Thank you!

  • 5/5 Johnny N. 3 months ago on Google • 30 reviews New
    Food is great. It is especially mouth watering when they serve it on a sizzling hot plate..I truly enjoy my steak. Goes really well with the sautéed onions too… going to come back again to try out their Lamb rack…

  • 4/5 George B. 3 weeks ago on Google • 16 reviews New
    Go here for your protein hit! Succulent steaks cooked to order. All the steaks are visible to choose cooked in full view of customers so you know exactly what you're getting and what's going on. The gentleman running the grill was really helpful, knows his meat and cooked everything perfectly. Even more impressive considering the number of orders. Service let down a bit by one lad wearing a permanent frown and rushing you through your dinner. Given the opportunity, we'd go again.

  • 5/5 Silika M. 5 months ago on Google • 14 reviews
    Amazing dinner tonight! Please make sure you order a steak you can finish, these are incredibly massive steaks. We ordered a range from beef stakes to the chicken and lamb rack. All delicious! Medium rare is the way to go! T-Bone, Scotch or Eye Fillet are great options. Definitely coming back! ❤️

    A fantastic experience getting some absolutely humongous steaks that tasted fantastic. A nice sear on the steak plus all the sides make it a really nice steak dinner. Fantastic and friendly staff too. Must do if looking for good steak in Auckland.

    I just had the best steak at this restaurant! The meat was perfectly cooked, tender, and full of flavor. The atmosphere was cozy, and the service was excellent. If you’re a steak lover, you have to come and try it! I highly recommend it, and I’d love for all my friends to join me here sometime.

  • 4/5 Raquel Z. 3 months ago on Google • 9 reviews New
    My steak was massive!! 500g of steak! It was delicious however I do wish that it came with a sauce, butter or something on the side. Maybe it’s just an American thing but having the option would have been great as well. Steak was amazing and delicious on its own!

    We have been to Angus Steak House a few times now and is definitely a favorite in our household. We have always had the best experience and the best food. The Staff are super friendly and make you feel super comfortable. Highly recommend this place whether it be for a cosy date night or a family dinner 😀

  • 5/5 Aaron 2 months ago on Google • 5 reviews New
    Awesome juicy steak. Been meaning to come back here for years and finally found the occasion. Much has changed mainly because of covid and hygiene in general had to comply. The salad bar no longer is there but still able to select own big juicy steaks. Salad prep'd and served from the kitchen.

  • 3/5 javier y. 2 years ago on Google
    If you are looking for a big steak, this is the place to go. Our experience was ok but it wasn't memorable. The steak was well cooked and the servers did as good as they could. I recommend you not to be seated by the rear window where drunk people wait for their burgers from The White Lady, it may be entertaining, but not ideal for a romantic dinner out.

  • 4/5 Paul S. 2 years ago on Google
    The 800gm t-bone steak cook to perfection with salad and creamed mushrooms. I didn't booked only waited a short time but understaffed and that reflected in the service. I won't expand because once they seemed to get into a flow I was looked after and accepted the service flaw apology. Would I go back, yes, go if you are a true carnivore. 👍

  • 5/5 cha l. 11 months ago on Google
    Amazing meat. If you are a meat lover that is the perfect place. Be aware...the meat portion is huge :D would recommend if you are looking for good meat and chill-relax atmosphere.

  • 4/5 Sherryk K. 11 months ago on Google
    Nice aesthetic, well lit venue. There's a waiting area for those that didn't book in advance. Pretty nice thick chunks of steak of all kinds at a pretty high price point of $48 as of November 2023.

  • 4/5 Lilian M. 1 year ago on Google
    We had the eye filet and scotch steak with creamy mushroom. Both steaks were delicious and tender and juicy and huge portions. You need to order sauce as extra as steaks only came with salad.

  • 5/5 Luis Ganontrox F. 1 year ago on Google
    This is a great place for anyone who love a steak in Auckland. The meat has a high quality, 100% from NZ and you are able to see how fresh each piece are before the chef cooks. The steaks are a great call, each come with fresh salad side. The sides options are very good and interesting. For this first trial, we choose the McCain 10 mm Surecrisp and the creamy mushroom. Both options were great, the chips were crispy after 20 minutes in our table. For the dessert, we choose the mudcake chocolate. Is a rich dessert after eating an amazing meal. The prices are fair since each steak has around more than 500 g. In summary, this is a place that we pretend to go back many times to enjoy the experience of eating a great streak.

  • 4/5 David and Morgan F. 1 year ago on Google
    Food was great thought you might need to ask them to season before hand or maybe they just leave it to the customer to season themselves. Wait staff was on point. She remembered my list of order (had a party of 7) that's how you know she's a pro! Props to her. Wouldn't recommend the red wine ju sauce, though. Definitely get the garlic butter! Otherwise, everything else was great!

  • 5/5 Deborah P. 1 year ago on Google
    Absolutely awesome steak. Real sizes real flavour and service was excellent.

  • 4/5 Luke V. 1 year ago on Google
    While I get well done steak is a challenge for some chefs in a hurry in my case it was served still definitively medium rare, and had to be sent back for a second round of cooking, which did make it end up a bit tougher. Flavour was passable, but a bit strong on both the pepper and garlic fronts for my palate. Salad was great however and kumara chips gotten as a side where quite tasty, but due to how busy the place was we ended up spending approx 90 minutes here. Steak size itself is on the larger end, so probably a good meal all told if you eat regular medium-rare steak. Price for steak, kumara chips and a beer is around $72.
