Marco Pierre White’s idea of simple is old school: elegant dishes prepared using the finest ingredients by chefs trained in London by Marco himself. The deceptively simple menu demands every dish earn its place: the choicest cuts of meat, freshest fish, classic sauces. The vibe? Grown up, relaxed, playful. The setting? An opulent room you’ll feel at home in, only better!

Wow! Exceptional service and top-quality food! We can’t believe we’ve only just discovered this place. The waitstaff were incredibly friendly and attentive from the moment we arrived until the end of our meal. And the food — absolutely phenomenal! We’ve dined at many restaurants around the world, but this was hands down the best steak we’ve ever had. After dinner, we enjoyed some time at the bar, soaking in the live music, sipping cocktails, and admiring the beautiful garden view. Huge thanks to Fire Steakhouse for the impeccable service and an unforgettable experience!

Lovely restaurant and food was great. The issue was when we arrived and said we had a booking, the person serving us couldn’t find it. When I showed him the email confirmation of the booking he said the hotel doesn’t really use open table as a booking platform but he would try and accommodate us. We asked if we could sit outside and we’re told there was no tables. There were clearly two tables outside not being used and when we asked if we could sit at one of them he agreed. It was an unusual first few minutes, but following on from that everything was great.
