    Goucho Grill is excellent, Gracechurch St, Broadgate, Canary Wharf and at the O2. Probably one up west too.
    Boisdales, a Scottish restaurant in Victoria is v good too for steaks. Live Jazz there too some nights.

    Not been there. Can't go wrong with Goucho which are all over. Best one I've been to is Hawksmoor in Shoreditch. Have to order your beef 24 hours in advance!

    Anyone remember The Greenwich Steak House on the one-way system? Had some nights in there when I used to work at Barclays SE10, just a mere 25 years ago! <shock>

    Hawksmoor is ok if you're young, trendy and don't really expect good old fashioned service. Food is good though, it's just that I'm a bit of an old fud.

    Grub was amazing in Hawksmoor. Also like the benches style tables. Seb from Media was in there though with his pals, celebrating the purchase of his new 911 so it does have it's drawbacks.

    Always say Gaucho - love the place. Been to the one in Piccadilly, Chancery Lane and Tower Bridge. Broadgate is next week for the missus' birthday.

    I 100% do not recommend any of those aberdeen angus steak houses - They're distinctly average!

    this place has just opened in Throgmorton and theres one in marylebone... so not covent garden, so no help really.

    Just for city bods really. its 19 quid and you only get one choice of starter of a salad and then steak and chips... no choice - well the only choice you get is how you like your steak done. apparently the steak comes out in two servings as soooo huge!! cant wait to try. plus 20% off till the end of march.

    If your in the moorgate/old street area, city road bar and grill is good.
    And you have for your eyes only a few doors down for after!

    Zorbas in Welling (used to be the Olympus Steakhouse) does lovely steaks and also look after kids well (unlike most restaurants)

    Gauchos is quality but a bit lumpy.

    I treated myself to a steak at Smith & Wollenskys whilst out in Las Vegas. . . . $53 just for the cut of meat!

    Not up town, but i've been in Millers & Carters a few times lately, used to be the beefeater at the jacobean barn, nice bit of grub (although didn't order steak either time).
