Auckland｜This Year’s Most Satisfying Dry‑Aged Steak!

Truly lives up to its reputation as one of the village’s top spots — arrived at 5:30 PM on a weekday and it was already 1/3 full! 🐮 Beef Tartare – A nice twist! Finely diced (not minced) raw beef paired with crispy thin fried potato strings — texture and flavor were on point 🤌🏻 🐙 Wood‑Fired Octopus – Smoky grilled flavor on its own, served over lightly tangy cheesy mashed potatoes. Both elements were good alone, but together felt a bit mismatched. 🍕 Wood‑Fired Pizza with Chorizo – The spicy chorizo paired with a slightly sweet pizza sauce created a delicious sweet‑spicy kick — so addictive and appetizing! 🐮 Dry‑Aged T‑Bone Steak (600g) – Perfect for two! The fat cap was incredibly fragrant — rich beefy aroma with rendered crispy edges and a smoky char. We ordered medium‑rare — the meat near the bone had just the right marbling. Simply seasoned with coarse salt to highlight the steak’s natural flavor. Simple ingredients, extraordinary taste! 🍰 Tiramisu – Had a nice hint of liquor, decent but not a must‑order. 💰 AMEX offer: Spend $200, get $50 off (our order + drinks刚好 hit that). We over‑ordered for two — ended up taking half the pizza home. Next time without AMEX, we’d skip one dish 😄 🍴 Lilian 📍 472 Richmond Road, Grey Lynn #AucklandEats #AucklandFood #BestSteakInAKL #DryAgedSteak #AucklandDining #NZFood #GreyLynnEats #FoodReview #DateNightSpot #LocalFavorites
