• Steak • Belfast
Booked 5 times today
The clue is in the name....and for the juiciest, most flavorsome steaks around, no matter how you take it, it's hard to beat a Josper-cooked steak! The secret is our Josper grill, a very particular style of Spanish charcoal oven, which is regarded by chefs worldwide as the finest method of cooking super tender steaks, while locking in all those wonderful flavors. So whether it's Sirloin or Rib Eye you prefer, the unique smoky, barbecue-style taste of our locally sourced, prime aged steaks is, we believe, out of this world! If, however, steaks are not your thing, then fear not, as we also offer a wide-ranging & amp; varied menu and quick & easy Light Lunch menu.

    Busy time of year to visit. Booked a table which is a must in Christmas week. Seated promptly. Server was lovely. Our server forgot to order our starters, which wasn't really a problem other than them arriving at the same time as our dinner but no biggy really. Food was OK not the worst but far from the best. Nice atmosphere other than a really loud table near us but it's Christmas. We were given a 10% off voucher for our next visit due to the error. We weren't expecting anything but that was a nice touch on their part. Would I go again? Yes but mot in the Christmas week. All in all a nice way to spend an afternoon.
