This place ticked all the boxes! The service and suggestions was excellent and more importantly, the food was exceptional. The T-bone steak was cooked to perfection and all accompanying sides was great. We'll definitely be going back soon!

5/5 stars I had the pleasure of dining at Glenelg Steak Restaurant, and it was truly an unforgettable experience! From the moment we walked in, the warm and inviting atmosphere set the tone for a fantastic evening. The service was top-notch - the staff were attentive, knowledgeable, and made excellent recommendations. But the real star of the show was the food. We ordered the T-bone cooked to perfection, and it literally melted in my mouth. The flavours were rich and bold, and the quality of the meat was exceptional. The sides and desserts were equally impressive. The paris mash creamy and decadent. And don't even get me started on the banana creme brulee and apple crumble- it was pure heaven! Overall, Glenelg exceeded my expectations in every way. If you're a steak lover like me, do yourself a favour and book a table ASAP. You won't regret it! Highly recommend for special occasions, date nights, or just a great meal out with friends and family.

Food was delicious - a little on the pricey side especially when you add drinks but we expected that. Would highly recommend for a special evening out. Service was great and the wine selection absolutely brilliant.

A bit pretentious for a restaurant sat between a car park and a highway. The food was good but not sensational and definitely not worth the money. A pleasant enough meal tho and the service we received was great.
