"Hawksmoor's steaks are often called the best in London, and Charlie's sirloin, a hefty, bone-in slab, lived up to that billing. The Josper charcoal grill gives a deep, smoky char, but inside the flesh is rosily pink and full of flavour." READ REVIEW

"The problem with steaks, though, is that after the first blast, there’s just more of the same, until you’re sated. It’s animal appetite it serves, not gastronomy. But for that, Hawksmoor sure hits the spot." READ REVIEW

"The dry-aged Longhorn steaks, via super-butcher Ginger Pig’s Yorkshire farm, are the bomb. Huge, thick, breathing smoky fumes from their punishment on the charcoal grill, they manage the remarkable feat of being perfectly black outside and evenly pink within." READ REVIEW

"The steak was a glorious hunk of drippingly pink, charcoaly flesh – with none of that obnoxious chewiness that comes from poorly integrated fat and bad cuts. I’m not sure I’ve tasted anything better – even in the US." READ REVIEW

"The message I want to convey is to not have steak at Hawksmoor. Its good, but it’s not great, for the same money... Instead, I urge you to go for everything else on the menu." READ REVIEW

"Anyone who’s been to the Spitalfields venue will know what to expect from the kitchen, but the setting, atmosphere and location make this one even better." READ REVIEW
