Beast — Restaurant in London

An extraordinary experience that is unlike anything that I have seen/experienced so far.

Firstly, the way the restaurant has been set up is through a mix of modern and classic design all done in a very elegant way. It felt quite special being in such an environment.

Secondly, the service was perfect! It was clearly apparant that the staff was passionate about what they are actually serving and take care of things. Our main waitress spent time elaborating about the different meat cuts they had available and everyone seemed to have an eye for detail on almost everything - the way how things are presented, the way how things are carried, warm plates for the main course and cold plates for the desserts, etc etc.

Last but definitely not least, the restaurant caters to Halal dietary requirements when notified at least 24 hours in advance - for now only the Australian Chateaubriand is Halal and there needs to be a minimum of 400g per order. I requested this one and I can highly recommend it. The meat was so tender and succulent and complementing it with the tripple-cooked truffle chips and fresh peppercorn sauce just blew my mind. Everyone else decided to share different types of meat with each other and they all loved what they ate. In addition to this, the Wild Nigerian Prawn was insanely delicious. As for the desserts, these were shared amongst us and were nicely presented. My favourite was the Pistachio crumble cheesecake.

Bottom line: Yes it is a very expensive restaurant but if you want to try something different & boujee of a very high quality then this place really...

As some others have indicated, this is a slightly confusing place because the prices are really high, and the service-style matches that (the food order is a bit like negotiating a battle plan with the waiter, a sommelier has to take your drink order, and passing waiters top-up drinks unbidden)... But the way you are sat on really long communal tables gives it a canteen feel, can feel cramped (a very large man was sat beside me, and he didn't really have adequate space), plus navigating around the tables makes leaving to use the toilets really awkward (tables are quite closely spaced, which must make the waiters' jobs more difficult when crossing paths with diners on their way to and from the toilet). Food-wise, I think it's generally all good, although a couple of people in our group thought the chargrilled octopus was over-charred and bitter. Disregarding the prices, from the sides I really enjoyed the broccoli, chips, mushrooms and salad. There was a nasu dengaku style aubergine side which, whilst fine by itself, felt an incongruous option alonside the "main events" of steak and/or crab. The serving staff were all very approachable and friendly, and seemed to very attentively carry out their duties. This isn't the kind of place I'd choose to eat at (and really cannot afford), but a relative booked it without consultation - so bear in mind this is a review by somebody who enjoys food, is happy to pay well for it (and the service), but is not comfortable in the "high end" restaurant scene (and also doesn't put steak on the same pedestal as...

This place was an ultimate experience in itself! Upon entering you're greeted by the beast itself, walking down to the restaurant we are greeted by large tanks of Norwegian King Crabs and cured beef meat. There are 3 long tables instead of individual tables which almost felt like something out of Harry Potter. We went for the ribeye steak from Nebraska, Norwegian King Crab, truffle chips and plain chips and bone marrow. Wow I can't even begin to describe the steak. It was just so tender, juicy and sweet!! This is honestly the best steak I've tried so far and I have tried many! The steak came with I think mushroom sauce/gravy? Oh gosh that went so well with the steak but even without it the steak was glorious already. The truffle chips..wow that was out of this world!!! My mum always went about how she always wanted to try truffle mushroom but I never understood the hype around it until I have tried these truffle chips. It is a godsend!!!!!!! You HAVE to order the truffle chips if you come here. I didn't have the Norwegian King crab but my friend who ordered it was very satisfied with it and the best crab she has tried so far. The bone marrow was also good according to my friend. Honestly I am going back soon. I'm so happy this place exists. Yes it is more on the expensive side, especially for the crab but for steak I'd say its average compared to other places, the only difference is in the amazing taste. If you're visiting London and craving for seafood and steak, this is a place...
