Dna Steak & Grill in South Northamptonshire

Excellent quality food, attentive but not overbearing service. Mixed grill and steaks were melt in the mouth, desserts excellent as well.

Fantastic food whenever we go, Monday night or a busy Saturday evening. Wonderful steaks and meats, all cooked perfectly. Brilliant to have such a decent offering from an independent, as opposed to the usual high street kebab shop dross.

Nice little cosy restaurant with amazing food, staff and atmosphere. Big dishes and the food was cooked to perfection. The mixed grill we had was beyond any mixed grill I've ever had - meat was proper cooked and was melting in my mouth. And the sticky toffee pudding was simply the best!

It's not just about the steak!...... we popped in for Sunday lunch last weekend and OMG! it was stunning. Probably the best that we've ever had around Towcester. We've cancelled our Mother's Day booking elsewhere and rebooked for DNA. I can't wait to go again! 🤣

Popped in tonight for an early valentines meal, wow just wow, food, ambiance, service and food all excellent We had booked another venue in towcester but didn't like the menu when we arrived, walked passed DNA and can honestly say it was amazing, the steak was melt in your mouth, hubby had the mixed grill and it was delicious the pork and steak so tender, it felll apart. A gem to visit again. Must add service with a smile as always makes difference. We will be back and bring our friends.

First visit. Absolutely amazing food and service. If you haven't been yet, you need to. You won't be disappointed 👌

Went with some friends for a meal. Lovely atmosphere, amazing food and the staff were very attentive and friendly. Best steak around. Will definitely go back.

Really excellent Sunday lunch at this lovely independent restaurant. We were there as a family of 6 with a toddler. Great cooking, lovely staff who looked after us really well. Highly recommended

Excellent steaks with the beautiful char grilled flavour. Staff are brilliant and very accommodating

We had heard this place was good for a steak but living in Buckingham had never been so we ventured out there to try it.... Well what a brilliant evening..... very pleasant and efficient staff with smiles on their faces looking after you every need. The steak was brilliant and we will definately be back. Many thanks to one and all. Pete & Greta

We just love it here, visited for the first time about 2 years ago after hearing so many good reviews and this is now our favourite place. Food is just amazing, in house service is fabulous and everyone Is just so friendly and welcoming. Would highly recommend xx

Amazing meal out for a birthday. Food was sensational, atmosphere was great and staff were knowledgable, helpful and friendly.

Should be called V&A as the food is so exquisitive it belongs in a museum! Had a fantastic meal on Sat 27th Jan, pork belly and brie bites starters and various steaks. Good ambience, no loud music, plenty of space. The best meal out I've had since I remember. Favourites were the soft and smoky teriyaki pork belly, the picanha with chimmichuri and the onion rings (crispy and sweet).

This place is a hidden gem in Towcester. We usually go for the steak sharing platter which is always amazing! We decided to try the Sunday roast that people in Town have been raving about, because I’m a chef I’m normally quite disappointed when I have a roast out! Well I certainly wasn’t disappointed it was absolutely fantastic! The service is always great & the atmosphere is always warm and friendly, the food is excellent! I’m definitely a fan!

Lovely independent restaurant. Fab service, attentive but not too much. Fantastic food, I had surf and turf and it was bloody amazing. Husband had the mixed grill and the pork belly was delicious, melt in your mouth

Visited Dna with friends last night. Stepping through the door we were welcomed by the staff to a lovely full restaurant with a really lively buzz (always a good sign). I thought nothing could beat the beautifully cooked Brazilian Picanha steak ....that was until I tried the delicious homemade chips and finally the indulgent knickerbocker glory !! The service was as high quality as the food and the atmosphere. All in all, a fantastic evening out. Very highly recommended.

Lovely restaurant and staff. The food is amazing. Highly recommended.

I've been to DNA many times, and have been meaning to leave a review for years. It is clearly long overdue and is the least I can do to support this local independent restaurant. Their consistency is second to non; every visit the food is absolutely delicious, the cocktails are great, the waiters are very friendly, and the owner is extremely attentive. I highly recommend this restaurant to everyone who can appreciate the combination of great food and fantastic service. It's perfect for group meals, meet-ups or date nights. Hope they will carry on for many years to come. Merry Christmas to the team at DNA. Helena

Just arrived home after a lovely afternoon spent at d&a was my first visit here but I can’t wait to return.Food was superb,steak that just melts in your mouth and the ice cream was to die for,such a relaxing atmosphere and the staff have got customer service at a perfection polite,so friendly and very welcoming thankyou so much for a wonderful afternoon.

Had a fantastic Christmas meal with friends and everything was spot on. My salmon was cooked to perfection. Staff very attentive. Was a great evening. Thanks DnA.

Top quality steak. Had the sharer and every bite was delicious. Cooked perfectly and well seasoned. Sticky toffee pudding was amazing too. Very good service. Not cheap but more than happy to pay for a quality meal.

Great food, atmosphere and staff. The steaks are cooked beautifully and really good quality. The staff were friendly and attentive. We’ll be back, for sure!

We’ve eaten here at lunch, in the evening and most recently for Sunday lunch. All have been amazing. The Sunday lunch in particular was outstanding.

One of the best hamburger I’ve ever had 😍 I’m not a meat lover but this one was perfectly cooked and juicy. The staff was friendly and nice anche the ambiance warm and cozy. After visiting Silverstone Museum, come here to have a bite. It will definitely be worth it

Went mid week for my partners birthday. Will definitely be going back! Food and service were amazing

Had the most amazing meal here last night. The food was just sublime, I’d go as far to say the best steak I’ve ever had. Sticky toffee pudding was also unbelievably nice. And to top it off the staff were lovely and couldn’t do enough to make sure we were happy, which made the experience that much better. Bravo DNA, 10/10.

would definitely recommend and will definitely be going back again. lovely experience. Lovely decor and atmosphere. Warm welcome from staff. When seated with out asking water brought to the table. Compliments to the chef, 3 course meal, food was perfectly cooked. (Camembert starter) amazing!! (Mixed grill) pork belly was tender and melted in my mouth with amazing flavours. The chicken and steak also the same. (Sticky toffee pudding) lovely. In my opinion probably the best meal I’ve eaten out ever from memory. It is now definitely going to be my new favourite place to eat if the food taste as good as it did today!

I am never going anywhere else for a Steak. Interesting menu, with some fancy options. Food is extremely tasty and well presented, staff is nice and the atmosphere is great. Can't wait to come back.

First time here and the food did not disappoint was really good, pricey but don’t mind when it’s good. However the team need to be more on it and attentive they really let the front down the atmosphere let it down too no music. Was quite however if the service was better I would have scored higher as the food was very good. When your charging these prices you really need good front service team !

Delicious meal, wonderful staff and service, and yum cocktails! This was my second visit to DnA and it did not disappoint, I’ll definitely be back!

Phenomenal. Best place in town for food, best restaurant for miles. Food incredible, service amazing... Really friendly, with a family atmosphere but perfect for couples & friends too. Steaks are perfect and the roast dinners on a Sunday are the best I've eaten in a restaurant.

Third time we have been and every time has been fantastic . Great food and drink served by the best people in town .

Great night for myself and my wife.

We had an amazing meal for my daughters 50th this evening. The food was incredible, we got a takeaway dessert for the fifth member of our group who couldn't make it. We always have sticky toffee pudding...this one was the best by far. Thanks to all the staff who made this a pleasureable and most memorable evening😁😁

The rain halted our longer walk for lunch elsewhere, we walked back into Towcester and dropped into D & A. Well rain messed up plans, but quality of food and service simply made the day. My wife had steak Diane, and I had the haddock and chips, both present very well, excellent portions and service. To our surprise there was a 25% discount at lunch time. Cannot believe this restaurant was not full of people at the price, for quality meals. By far greater value for money than garden center cafe’s, and local high street venues. Thank you D & A you never fail to impress.

I went to DNA for lunch on a Saturday with my husband. The service was very friendly. The food was delicious! I had a chicken baguette and my husband had the steak baguette, my husband said the steak was perfect. They came with chips and salad. We both said the chips were the best we’ve had, chunky and homemade! DNA are offering 25% off but we will be back and happy to pay full price. Can’t wait to return to try the roast dinners soon.

Absolutely love DNA. Never disappoints. I don't often leave reviews for places but this is well deserved. After our third visit this evening to celebrate my birthday I just want to share what a fantastic meal we had, staff are always welcoming and accommodating and I would highly recommend to anyone . You are a true asset to towcester!

Very disappointing meal. My steak very tough and not at all juicy (supposed to be Medium Rare, but just dry and unpleasant). Chips soggy and lukewarm - looked and tasted like cheap oven chips. Top end pricing definitely not justified - there are much better alternatives.

This place is exceptional. Incredible pork belly and prawn starters. Steak was cooked to perfection. Tasty fries and sides. Friendly and chatty staff. Excellent speed of service. A real gem.

Always good. Good service and great food. Parking to the rear is free, and advice on the menu is always spot on.

Absolutely fantastic quality, rib eye beef and trimmings were delicious… combined with great service … unbeatable in Northants Robbie & Linda

Food was fantastic, worth every penny! Will be coming back soon.

Had a really rally delicious dinner last night. Steaks were superb as was the fish. Will be back!

Very good steak meal, nice restaurant and friendly staff

Excellent food and service, highly recommended 👌

DNA Steak and Grill I a must restaurant for real Steak connoisseurs. I have been searching through the UK for the perfect Steak and I was incredibly impressed. Not just the flavour but the perfectly cooked Rib Eye will live on in my mind for a long time. The onion rings and even the chips were perfect also. Highly recommended!!

This a fantastic place to go, all members of staff were professional and friendly. Food was amazing, pricy but so worth it.

Steak and food was nice but expensive and portions could be bigger. 4 star overall experience for us weighing up cost, service, atmosphere etc

Outstanding steak and grill restaurant. 5* service from all the employees, fabulous starters, mains and dessert. Would highly recommend DNA steak and grill for a meal out to celebrate an occasion or as an evening out with friends.

An excellent spot for great food and great service. In our group of 6, all felt the same, this is a wonderful venue. ❤️

Excellent food and attentive service!

We visited this restaurant for my partner's 40th birthday! We travelled from Suffolk for a weekend away and decided on DNA Steak and Grill due to the reviews. They did not disappoint!! The food and service was exceptional. The burger tasted wonderful, the steak cooked to perfection and the onion rings were the best we ever tasted. The staff were all really pleasant and helpful. For my partner's 40th birthday, they put a candle in his dessert and sang Happy Birthday! It really did top off our night. Highly recommended you visit here 💗

My mouth is watering just thinking back to eating here. A group of 4 of us had the chateaubriand and everybody was very impressed. The meat was beautiful, the dauphinoise potatoes were buttery and delicious and the cocktails were fresh and well made. It was a fairly hefty bill but honestly worth every penny, absolutely the best restaurant locally.

It was indeed a pleasant surprise. I found this restaurant by chance on Tripadvisor and decided to go in. With a cozy room, always with clientele, the menu offers several options but meat lovers will love many of the delicacies. I ordered a mix of meats, to share, and I didn't regret it at all. It was worth every gram. The service was always very close, friendly, careful and attentive. The restaurant is right in the middle of the village, next to the town hall. It's easy to find a free park nearby and take a few steps there. Sorry for the prejudice, but it seems like you can still eat well in the UK! ;-)

Had a really lovely evening at DnA, the quality of food was really tasty, there was time between courses for a tipple and a chat without feeling rushed. I thought I’d try the fish of the day, Swordfish as I’ve never had it before and...

Foi, de facto uma agradável surpresa. Encontrei este restaurante por mero acaso no Tripadvisor e decidi entrar. Com uma sala...

Another excellent find from TA. How do you rate a meal above 5* cause that’s what this was. We have eaten steaks all over the world on 5* Cruises, independent restaurants and chains. This meal topped them all, this Chef knows how to cook a...

Awesome food. Came here on saturday 15th july as a party of 9. Most of us had the DnA burger and 2 of us had the pork T.Bone with black pudding Bon Bons.. Thanks for a great night guys.

Double birthday dinner, great food very filling, sadly we didn’t have room for dessert which was a shame. Lovely atmosphere.

Thank you Alberto and the team at DNA for making my Wife’s birthday celebration a wonderful night to remember. Faultless food as always. Amazing service. I cannot recommend DNA enough. A night to remember.

The meal was ok, and the steak was slightly overcooked but still tasty. The prawn starter was nice and spicy. Service was a bit slow although they were nice and friendly, we would have spent more on drinks if they arrived quicker.

Turned up without a booking and restaurant was busy but we were accommodated and lots of effort was made to make our night after a cancelled flight! Fillet steak was just the best, beautifully cooked and just delicious as was the side of Parmesan topped...

Exquisite: service & staff nice, friendly & relaxed, food absolutely delicious , ambience, wine. Fantastic, cannot recommend highly enough 👌

Popped in today with my father after a long morning at the hospital. (All good) We have tried most of the restaurants/cafes locally and thought we’d pop in for lunch (13:45) hoping they were still serving. They were, got a lovely table in the window...

Shared the chateaubriand, absolutely lovely meal and great service 👍

Excellent service Beautifully cooked food. Somebody in the kitchen really knows what they are doing. My tuna steak was carefully prepared exactly as I like it. The vegetables were cooked to perfection. Can not fault the whole experience.

Excellent food and service! Highly recommend! Yes, a little bit more costly that other local eateries, but here you get what you pay for - quality and excellent service.

We had such a lovely dinner last night with family and friends. Steaks were delicious, we ordered flat irons, sirloins, mixed grill and surf & turf. Staff were very helpful and friendly and checked on us frequently if everything was alright. Very busy Sunday night,...

We were passing through on a Friday evening and were just looking for a relatively quick bite... fortuitously we were welcomed in and quickly decided we deserved to make the most of the enticing menu. As there were 3 of us, the platter sounded just...

Genuinely warm welcome and great service. Fabulous quality food. Thoroughly enjoyed trying a platter of different steaks, cooked just right, bursting with flavour. Can't wait to go back!

You can tell a chef's passion for his trade by what arrives on your plate... This guy is a credit to his profession! We stopped here en route to the south coast and we happened across the best steak I've had in a very long time! Cooked to perfection, tender, juicy and flavoursome. My son described it as heavenly! If you're ever in Towcester and hankering a steak or burger I can't recommend this place enough. Staff were all friendly and welcoming, I spoke to the chef before leaving and he really cares about his produce. Can't wait to come back!

Going against my norm I'll giving a short account of the small things they can do to improve the experience. 1. If sitting at the back near the kitchen, please keep the outer door closed as the draft was quite cold. 2. Slightly more attentive staff as took us several minutes to get the bill as they were stood at the bar chatting. With that out the way, this place is a must visit eatery in Towcester. The decore is warm and inviting matching the temperature and the seating/layout. It was full when 4 of us visited last night without feeling crowded, which is something very few venues get right. The table was well laid out with a steak knife already present, which I very much appreciate when dining at a steak house. Now onto the food... The chicken supreme was excellent. The mash creamy, well seasoned and piped onto the plate in a fan shape, which showed me this chef takes real pride in plates. The broccoli stems positioned between the mash and the star of the plate, that wonderfully moist, delicately dressed chicken 👌🏾. The two steak dishes (Ribeye and Mixed Grill) were very much faultlessly executive. Medium Raw, well seasoned,l and again that chicken which accompanied the mix grill was amazing. Chips and a light salad was in keeping the standard of everything else. I was so impressed that I completely forgot we had staters 😅: bread n olives, whitebait and calamari were all very nice and we were all too full to try dessert, so we have no option back to go back 😎. So the bill... Including 2 bottles of red and a non-alcoholic drink, a very reasonable £190. A very solid 4.5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐

amazing food here ...... every visit is just as good as the last would say you'd struggle to find a better steak anywhere near

Fast friendly but professional service. Beautiful meal beef cooked just as I like it! Highly recommend it! Cheers Alberto!

Nom nom nom yum nosh boozy cocktails for afters. Dribble dribble steak delicious.

Amazing food, really tasty, clean, modern stylish decor, friendly and attentive staff. Went for lunch, good range of drinks. Burgers were big and really juicy. I had the Caesar salad and it was a proper Caesar salad. The chicken was properly grilled with a true smoky flavour, perfect flavour dressing. The chips were proper chips, better than todays chippy’s. The chips were full of flavour but not greasy, just tasty. The Brie bites were crusty outside with melted Brie, deep cooked but again not greasy, just very tasty. Good size portions. Definitely will come here again. Modern decor. Spotless bathroom, friendly attentive server. Great experience.

Amazing food - less amazing service! Simple things let the service down tonight…. They got a food order wrong as the server didn’t write down our order and unfortunately got stuck to a chair (chewing gum)!! On chatting to Alberto he took on board some...

First visit to DNA, food was fantastic! Excellent service, good atmosphere, couldn’t fault anything. will definately be back!!

Lovely cosy atmosphere and well prepared 'yummy' food. Offers a little twist on traditional dishes to set them apart from a 'pub meal'. The service is delightful and welcoming also- Will definitely go again.

Lovely little gem on the High Street. Honestly the nicest steak I’ve had in a long time, ribeye perfectly cooked. We had starters, mains and shared a pudding. Everything was tasty and enjoyable. Great selection of alcoholic and nonalcoholic drinks. Service was relaxed and friendly....

Booked DNA steakhouse for my husbands birthday. The food was delicious and perfectly cooked. The staff were so friendly and accommodating. There was something on the old menu my husband liked which had been taken off the menu but they made it for him anyway....

WOW - fantastic service and delicious food. Steak was cooked to perfection and the best sticky toffee pudding ever. What was even more impressive was that hubby has a dairy allergy and rather than the usual fobbing off with sorbet, the kitchen offered him a...

Lovely restaurant with great service and fantastic food. I ordered the steak baguette with chips which was delicious. Large portion sizes and very tasty. A lovely place to go either for lunch or dinner. Really glad we stumbled across this lovely restaurant.

It was our second visit and the food was just as good as the first if not better! The service was also very good. It’s New Year’s Eve so they were very busy. Highly recommend.

DNA is a lovely place where to enjoy tasty and well presented food. Cosy and welcoming atmosphere, service was quick and the staff kind and efficient. Steak was tender and perfectly cooked, mushroom sauce creamy and tasty and veggies very well seasoned. Starter & desserts as well very much appreciated. Highly recommended

Food is over priced and average. My burger was very tasty, but quite a dry combination. Service extremely slow. Disappointed.

Alberto and his staff and welcoming, friendly and attentive but not too much, either. Steak was great, just as ordered. Can't think of anywhere better in Towcester and worth travelling to, if you're not too far away.

So good, everything was delicious, definitely recommend the fillet steak as well as the peppercorn sauce which was #unreal 😋

Me and my husband have been to DNA near enough ten times now. We keep going back because the food is so delicious and the waiting staff are really friendly. The atmosphere inside the restaurant is really nice and relaxed. I would recommend DNA to anyone who is looking for a restaurant to eat at in Towcester.

Rare to say but was perfect meal and service

We need to eat out locally most weeks and thought we knew everywhere in Towcester. But didn’t know DNA had opened up on Towcester High St in May. One night, we were heading back home and went in to see what was going on. It...

Food and service were excellent. However we booked for 6.45pm as that was all that was available.At 8.30pm we were asked if we wanted desserts as our table was wanted for another sitting. We declined as knew we would be rushed if we stayed. We...

Cosy little place that did fabulous food, really enjoyed the steaks and both the starters and deserts were also enjoyable. On the pricey side, but you definitely get what you pay for, will 100% visit again!

I booked this restaurant after reading all the other reviews. It was packed at 7.30 on a Wednesday night! The fillet steak was one of the best I’ve ever had. Great food & atmosphere, will definitely be back!

What a fantastic restaurant. Polite and efficient service. The burger was juicy and cooked to perfection. Chips couldn't have been done better. Great decor as well. Thank you for a great experience guys

We visited DNA for the third time last night (22/10/22). We didn’t opt for starter but had the burger and turf and turf for mains followed by two Bailey’s floater coffees. Absolute perfection. We never order steak anywhere as no one seems capable of cooking...

Starter took so so long to arrive.. Bread and olives mm such a small serving .. Some of our steaks were OK some undercooked. Cant believe you dare to charge £5.50 for a portion of brocolli !!!!!! No lemonade we suggested they went to the...

Great food as always, amazing steaks and friendly efficient service

At last a restaurant where they understand how to cook food in way that brings out the best of the ingredients . Not only a fabulous choice extremely competitively priced. To be honest I don't think we'll bother trying anywhere else..and have booked to return...

My partner and I have frequented this place often. Usually the experience and food are above average and consistent. The attention to detail and quality of food is what one would expect from a privately owned steakhouse in a small village in Northamptonshire. That was...
