    I’ve had a lot of steak in London, but this one? Easily the best. The Highland sirloin was cooked to perfection—that 2001 R. López de Heredia Viña Tondonia Rioja? Stunning. Aged beautifully, balanced, and a perfect match for the steak. It wasn’t just the steak—the entire set menu was fantastic. Service was friendly and professional, but there was a small hiccup with the bill. OpenTable’s wording made it seem like I had already paid in advance, so I was caught off guard when I was presented with the bill. I asked the waiter, and the manager came over to clarify that I hadn’t actually paid yet. They were completely right, but OpenTable’s phrasing could be much clearer. All that aside, this was an outstanding meal, and I’d absolutely go back—especially for that steak and Rioja.
