    A little gem between central and south pier on the front. A must for steak lovers! Friendly staff, great service, not rushed and steaks done to a tea! Love it 😀

    Well received and placed at the table, staff more than happy to help. I had a 14 oz serloin steak with chips and side salad, within that serloin it was a 6 oz rump. Garlic butter was absolutely amazing and the mushrooms were to die for. I ate the whole thing and was surprised as this would be too much for me, but everything was cooked exactly how I asked for it to be done. All in all an amazing meal in an amazing place just well named and seen on Google maps, if you come to Blackpool you have to check this out.

    The food was amazing, one of the best places I've ever eaten at and by far the best in England. Didn't feel like we were in Blackpool! Will definitely go back if we're in the area again

    Have tried this place few months ago on an early afternoon everything perfect only one other table in at the time. So reserved a table for 3 this Sunday arriving to a totally full restaurant but escorted to a reserved table at 6pm. I ordered the exact same meal and guess what it came out 100% as the first time I had ordered the meal the staff are excellent the food is spot on you would never have guessed you where in a restaurant with every table full inside and out the staff did not miss a beat the manager of this place and the team are the best I have been served by on past 2 years so food amazing staff amazing will be back next time in Blackpool. Visit again this week and happy to try the starter this time what a lovely change for Blackpool Prom all the starters are home made and you can tell if you like your food especially stake do your self a treat visit you will not be disappointed my favourite place to eat on the past few years. Visiting several times now and it’s lovely to have such excellent consistency every time.

    Nice piece steak as part of set menu could have done with more seasoning before cooking.the rest of the family enjoyed there meals and we would return if back in the area the main problem was be carefull if you sit near the door as the restaurant is on the sea front so wind can be a bit cold. This could have been easily sorted in I had a jumper with us. The staff where so friendly and made sure door was closed when when ever anyone entered and could help more if we needed anything.

    First visit but won't be our last. Busy downstairs, so our table was upstairs. We ordered 4 small plates to share between 3. Lovely food and great portions. Fillet steak was tasty and tender. Highly recommended. Not to be disappointed I'd book in advance and if you can't do stairs, ask for downstairs when booking.

    In short, wonderful. Crisp light salmon fishcakes to atari then the best fillet steak ever It was cooked to perfection. The chicken Milanese was freshly prepared and very tasty served with chips and a salad garnish. The staff were attentive and there was enough space between courses for us to have a conversation, unlike some places where the main follows the starter in quick succession. Primarily, this is a steak house and there are many cuts to choose from, but there are a couple of vegetarian options for the non meat eaters. Bravo 👏

    We were blown away by the food. I tried some of my son's spaghetti bolognese and that was gorgeous too. Perfect portion sizes. Lovely staff and service and a nice cosy place. Great location right near South Pier. Faultless. We aren't from the area but we will be back whenever we come up!

    Great place to visit for a date night! We visited on a late Sunday afternoon and the atmosphere was buzzing. The backgound music was popping off too! We had cocktails, dipping bread, BBQ chicken wings and the Share board of Ribeye and I could not fault a single item. The dauphinoise potatoes were spot on - A must have! We asked for medium rare. And we got a beautiful piece of medium rare! And then finished off with a cupla tea! The staff are very friendly and inviting and the next time we visit blackpool, we will be revisiting this steakhouse!

    Turned up without a reservation, but the manager happily found us a table following a cancellation. The fillet steak was delicious and the rib eye steak was spot on. Both perfectly cooked to our tastes. The chips were great and the grilled tomatoes and mushrooms were perfect. The staff were very pleasant and helpful and I would happily go there again and recommend to others.

    Food was amazing, although waited almost 40 minutes for our mains and the table next to us longer both were comped with free drinks and was worth the wait, staff are very friendly

  • 5/5 Wayne T. 10 months ago on Google
    The food was great. I had the tomahawk steak and my wife had the fillet. The steaks were flame grilled and cooked to requirements. My daughter loved her kids rump steak which was reasonably priced. It was thunder storming and it started to rain in so we had to move tables and then the electrics went which spoilt the atmosphere somewhat. I'm sure the atmosphere is far better generally. Other than that it was a great meal. Well worth a visit.

    Had the most amazing fillet steak & peppercorn sauce here. Steak cooked perfectly, chips were HUGE and everything was very tasty. I left here with one very happy belly. Very reasonably priced too. Staff were brilliant - attentive, friendly and chatty. It was a most excellent dining experience. If you're local or visiting I can recommend dining here!

    Went for a date night with my boyfriend about 6 weeks ago and we still talk about it now! The place is so lovely and welcoming, great decor, friendly vibe with great customer service. The food was beyond our expectations - genuinely perfect! Our server was second to none and couldn't so enough for us. The cost is fabulous considering what you're getting and the quality of it. We will DEFINITELY be back.
