Our Famous Dry-Ageing Process

Our steaks are USDA Prime, dry-aged and butchered on-site, making us the only steakhouse in London which offers a cut of meat that combines all three.

Sitting alongside these are patriotic British and Irish cuts and premium seafood together with locally-sourced ingredients from the very best UK suppliers.
