Phil 08 January 2010 07:35 AM

Ditto re Gaucho's

Spec'c'57 08 January 2010 08:05 AM

:thumb: Gaucho's all the way. had Lin's works xmas do there. ;)

Diesel_DC 08 January 2010 08:07 AM

Yeah, been to gaucho's before :luvlove:, but this is with my parents so needs to be more local, they won't set foot in the city :cuckoo: too much hassle for them.

Phil 08 January 2010 08:15 AM

Try Simpy Blues Dave

Their Steaks are good

simon57 08 January 2010 08:24 AM

Burger king will only use the finest angus for their steaks...

nice and local too.:)

Milamber 08 January 2010 08:27 AM

Another vote for Gaucho's, been to both and the food is to die for. Drag em up there for the night.

There is one in Hornchurch too mate, (if its still there) they can eat steak and you can get mangled on their cocktails!!!! (once again our drinks bill was more than the food in here)

local enough for a bit of "cab" action too if needed !


watch it though, dont tell them its your birthday.... the lights dim and they play "stevie wonder - happy birthday" to you.... and you thought their chicken supreme was cheesy??? pmsl :) let me know when you're going and what time.... hehehehhe !!

Milamber 08 January 2010 01:32 PM

The Starr in Great Dunmow is an amazing place to eat too Dave. The steak is superb and the service is top notch.

Nothing better in my opinion - expensive but best by far.

Try the steak sampler for £75 - 1200g of pure beef :notworthy

V4JDMSTi 14 January 2010 12:11 PM

Gaucho all the way if willing to travel.

If not I like Back Inn Time in Chelmsford. Sister restaurant to Simply Blues iirc. Nice little American Dinner style. Great cocktails too.

Joooooooooo 14 January 2010 03:56 PM

Has to be the OutBack for me we all love it. We go to the one in Pips Hill Basildon. :luxhello:

Spec'c'57 14 January 2010 04:08 PM

Canary wharf one wouldnt be that bad for yoy Dave surely they would go there.

Gaucho Canary, 29 Westferry Circus, E14 8RR

Well worth the money though. Get Karen to treat you. I got taken to lunch on a freebie at work when someone was after our business. 3 smaller steaks and a glass of wine each came to best part of £150!

Gaucho's has been done to death ... it's nothing special at all, good but nothing special - full of suits too.

You need to concentrate on boutique restaurants. For example ....

Santa Marķa del Sur - Argentine Grill and Bar

I understand that they were featured on some Gordon Ramsey program so if he rates them it means they are awesome. I should add that I have been there five times and i've never had a better steak anywhere in this country.

Also the Ritz do fantastic steaks ... and they aren't as pricey as you might think.

Someone told me about a fantastic steak restaurant in Chigwell, but I can't for the life of me remember what it was

V4JDMSTi 15 January 2010 09:51 AM

Must admit GS those steaks that the Santa Maria were cooking on the F word looked gorgeous. They're very well priced as well. Anywhere to park round there? Might book a table for my birthday.

Spec'c'57 15 January 2010 10:22 AM

It's awesome. What I like most is that (at the time) it wasn't full of city pr@ts .... (I dressed down that day ;) ) so you had the warmth of a family run restaurant. Also you sit closer to people than you would normally and it makes the experience so much better.

If you like your beef then I recommend saving for a bit and going to Nobu. The Wagyu beef is absolutely awesome. melts in your mouth and worth going there just for it!

WRX_Dazza 15 January 2010 06:54 PM

Aragawa, in Tokyo's Shinbashi district, serves the best IMHO.

hmmmmm. might pop there next week :) - i need a break.
