🇬🇧 York | Must-Try for Carnivores 👉 Tomahawk
I’ve checked out one of the local hotspots in York! 👀 👉 TL;DR: It’s pretty good! Not worth going out of your way for, but as a big brand, it definitely delivers. The food, service, and ambiance are all on point. It’s one of the few places where you can really fill up, making it a great spot for a date.👌 But honestly, if you can’t get a reservation, just head next door to Miller & Carter—it’s pretty much the same deal! 😂 I think they might even share a supplier. “The Tomahawk” Bone-In Ribeye Steak Why choose when you can have it all? The Tomahawk offers a massive bone-in ribeye (don’t worry, it’s deboned and sliced when served) with a choice of four sides from the menu. You just need to pick your drink and dipping sauce. 🥩 I always go for medium-rare, which is about 30% cooked. One unique thing about Tomahawk’s steak compared to others is that it has a bit more of a charred, grilled feel on the outside, almost like a hint of... smokiness? 🌿 The outside is perfectly cooked, while the inside remains incredibly tender and juicy. The ribeye’s marbling ensures a fantastic texture and flavor. When the butter melts in your mouth, that rich, creamy aroma is just heavenly! 🫡 Sides I Chose: - French Fries 🍟 : Standard but delicious! - Beer Battered Onion Rings : Real chunks of onion with a crispy batter. They’re not greasy at all—way better than the thick-battered ones you get at fast-food places. So satisfying! - Field Mushrooms & Slow-Roast Tomatoes : Huge mushrooms and roasted tomatoes. I found these a bit too oily for my taste. - Broccoli Tossed in Spicy Chimichurri : The broccoli was perfectly roasted, though a bit oily as well. ⚠️ Random Musings: I thought the steak, which is already fatty, along with the fries and onion rings, could be balanced out with some veggies. But even the two veggie sides were a bit oily. 😅 For those who usually eat lighter or want something more balanced, I recommend the “Tom Salad,” which has tomatoes, onions, cucumbers, and lettuce. It’s super refreshing with the steak. 🥗 I miss Miller’s freebies, though! 🥺 🏠 Tomahawk Steakhouse York 📍 26 Lendal, York YO1 8AA 👀 On the way here, I spotted a tempting Brazilian steak buffet called Rio. Turns out it’s by the same company as Rio Steakhouse. Next time, I’m definitely trying their all-you-can-eat steak buffet! 🥩 #York #UniversityOfYork #YorkEats #YorkFoodie #UKYork #YorkRenting #UniversityOfYork #YorkFreshers
