Hawksmoor Spitalfields in Tower Hamlets

Went to try the Big Matt (top quality version of the famous McDonald's big mac) and it did not disappoint! The two patties were perfectly cooked, the buns were perfectly golden and the beef dripping fries that came with the burger were excellent. I highly recommend! (This burger is on the lunch special menu, not served on Sundays)

Booked a table for my Birthday. We were seated in a corner under an air vent which was blowing out enough cold air to disturb our napkins. We asked to be moved but were then seated adjacent to the disabled toilet that was behind a large curtain. I don’t think it’s appropriate to have a toilet within the seating area of the restaurant. The food wasn’t anything amazing for the price (£275.00). Overall a disappointing experience

Absolutely great steak. The staff is very helpful if you don't know what you should order and can make great recommendations. The scallops were really nice but the pudding is very sweet

At there last night, one of the best meals I’ve ever had. Get a sharing steak, you will never regret it.

Steak and sides were amazing, staff very nice and friendly, I will be back for sure. No words for the Black Forest Pavlova...

We got the Chateaubriand for 2 medium well and it was PERFECT! The Macaroni Chese and the beef dripping chips were also great. Good service, good cocktails and one of the best steak places we've been to. Hawksmoor will definitely be seeing us again!

Came here for my birthday meal. Service was excellent and the food was great quality. The fillet steak was perfectly cooked, and I enjoyed the beef dripping gravy. I also appreciated the free chocolates I got as it was my birthday. The only downside was the atmosphere. It was very noisy in here, I could hear the conversations of every table around me, and the tables were tightly packed together, resulting in space being invaded every time someone got up or placed a dish at a table. The starter options also leaned heavily towards seafood which I don't eat so there was only a few meat options to choose from.

Oooh amazing!! We are here for our wedding anniversary and we are being really looked after by Jaro who's been super professional and absolutely lovely! And the steak....omggg...and the dessert...omgggg it was a chocolate and caramel tart...heaven!!

Here 2/20/25 and it’s busy and dinner was lovely. We had two prefixe meals and upgraded one fo filet for £11 extra . We added a sauce and spinach side and with service it was £92 so it isn’t inexpensive however it was delicious and Jennifer our server was professional and lovely and the pros fixe can also include dessert for only £5 more. The food is always good and it’s a lovely crowd. Ok dinner was wonderful. We had a filet and a sirloin and ordered them rare. We added spinach and fries. Monday night they allow BYOB for £5 which is just a deal. We had Moet Champagne which went perfectly with our steaks. Service was wonderful and food hot and delicious. Ran after to west end for a play. It was a really nice dinner

amazing food. seriously amazing.

Absolutely FANTASTIC service from a range of different servers. It was my partner's birthday, and they really made an effort. Top roast as well of course!

Another outstanding steak experience in Hawksmoor!

Food outstanding - we chose our wine but our waiter gave us a sample of his recommendation which was very good indeed and cheaper than our selection! This is not cheap but the quality is outstanding - very highly recommended in my opinion.

Legendary Steak House in the heart of trendy Shoreditch. Pricey, but worth it for a birthday or other special occasion/celebration or if ya minted! Starters are amazing desserts are delicious and steaks are melt in the mouth superb. Staff and service is excellent. Highly recommend this place

The service was brilliant, however the food was a little bit of a let down. 3 of the 6 dishes were brilliant, however the remaining 3 were a but of a disappointment. The steak had very clearly been sitting under the heating lights for a while whilst all the other food was cooked so it could all be brought out at the same time, and the fillet steak for the surf & turf was completely over cooked. Overall, a great time was had, but it's just such a shame these small things went wrong, especially as the prices aren't cheap - everything needs to be spot on.

Food was lovely staff very helpful and attentive but not overly so.

Had the best time! Food amazing, service even better! We had our 7th anniversary meal, they were more than accommodating! Even giving us a special gift with our dessert!

We have noticed since our last visit which was at the Guildhall venue, the quality and portion of the starters and sides have gone down but the prices have increased. We will not be coming back anymore.

This visit wasn’t the same as my previous experiences. Although the staff were polite, helpful and resolved my issue around a small complaint around the final billI left there feeling slightly distraught and judged for challenging the bill.

Great atmosphere! Fabulous service. The waiters were very attentive and friendly. They made my experience so amazing!

Awesome. The original and best branch. Best steaks in London.

Our steaks were amazing - beautifully cooked to the correct temperature. Really surprised they do not serve mushrooms and the chairs/ seats were not the most comfortable. That said we all left very happy and satisfied!!

Booking via OpenTable was a breeze! I love Hawksmoor for their steaks. It was lunch time so was very busy. The food is always top-notch. However, after our starters, it took half an hour for our mains to arrive. Very unlikely so when I asked the waiter, she said that there was a delay. Finally when our food arrived, we loved it. To compensate, they didn’t charge for the sides.

Another great meal with a friend. Service was brilliant as always and no rushing you from the table for the next sitting.

Expensive... Friendly staff, but really expensive compared to its peers

Expensive, but good meat good service

our server Enriko is legit the GOAT. i hope u remember the two loud crazy filo girls stalking their friends date 😭 i hope we didnt cause too much of a ruckus 😝 we really appreciated the recommendations and spilling the tea to u and the updates the whole time. someone give him a raise or promotion please!!!!!!

Outstanding and generously portioned steak as usual. The other diners had the roast and it was apparently fabulous. Special mention to the caramel rolos.

Food was excellent and cooked to perfection. Beautiful ambience friendly service well worth a visit will come again. Thank you Harry for looking after us.

Had the lunch and drink special (rump steak and chips and Tunnock's old fashioned) which were delicious, and service was great !

5 Stars all the way. Absolutely delicious food and amazing service. Our waiter was brilliant. First time to Hawskmoor and highly recommend.

We had a lovely meal in January at Hawksmoor, very good value. We were given the wrong items originally but we explained we'd ordered something else and they rectified it quickly.

Fantastic food and exceptional service. Best steaks in London.

Very good food and service. The rump steak was surprisingly good for £20 but cost of drinks etc. we're a little steep. Overall very enjoyable

Made to feel like I’m the most important person!! Hope they read this, your location is perfect been to a few other locations and the reception by a few members of staff made my dad not want to go back, this spot as got everything right staff are friendly and happy. Went into the kitchen with my dad to say hi to the chefs and even though they were working hard they took the time out to say hello. Management perfect, front of house perfect, other costumers were smiling and in good sprites, mum and dad loves this place and I can see why food was premium quality decorations perfect. Can’t wait to come back Thank you hawks Ajla-Rae

Delicious meal and fantastic service! Can’t fault it!

Excellent meat and I was absolutely amazed with the pavlova rhubarb dessert. Not expected in this type of restaurant. Highly recommended. Very noisy (it was a Saturday night) Booking essential

An excellent meal at the Hawksmoor. All three courses were very good.

This place is unbelievably good. I must have left a review last year when a steak we’d ordered wasn’t quite to our standard, because when we arrived today a note had been placed on our account and most of our meal was complimentary! Such a personal touch. The Sunday roast was a delicious birthday treat for me and my family. We are patrons for life!

Staff were excellent as I’m Coeliac and they helped me with the menu items that I could have. Disappointed that I couldn’t have chips or roast potatoes. Question is why are roasties being done in a fryer? Anyway my food was a special order and was great just sad I couldn’t have the whole menu. Biggest problem was my wife and son both had the roast beef which they both said was very fatty. The dog did well when we got home. Another question is about the roast potatoes again. If I cook them at home everyone wants them super crispy, however Hawksmoor put them inside the Yorkshire puddings making them soft. If I’d had them I would have been really disappointed that they went soft. I’d say staff 100%. Food nearer 50%. Sorry Hawksmoor were disappointed

It was ok. The meat was lovely. The rest mediocre. Maybe it was an off-day, or just a January lacklustre experience. We’ll see. I’ve had better, I’ve had worse. But for £30 for a basic roast, you’d want more.

Ambience, good Food, good Dessert, good Service, good Cocktails, not so good

Excellent service with very generous portions. Sunday roast is nice but the "pink" cut of rump is borderline blue.

Every aspect of Hawksmoor was great. My only gripe is the pricing. We were made to order a steak which weighed 500g. No option of a smaller piece. Each 100g slice cost nearly £16, that is a lot for steak in this current climate. I cannot fault the rest. Staff were amazing as was the ambience.

Excellent service and food. Can’t complain! 5 stars Would throughly recommend!

Very good. Excellent service and high quality food.

Thank you for a great evening. The food was outstanding , and all the staff were friendly and efficient, we felt really looked after. Thanks again.

The food was delicious and well presented. The service was exceptional. We started with scallops that were tender and succulent. Our main entree was ribeye and the steak was cooked to perfection served with creamed spinach. We concluded our meal with apple pie and cream and my wife had a sticky toffee pudding that was so delicious. We were visiting London from USA and this rivaled the best steakhouses in NYC.

Food was excellent and the server was amazing! She deserves a raise tbh

Took the wife after rave reviews from my daughter. Food definitely five stars Unfortunately, customer service was a little disappointing, our plates left uncleared way too long , even though our server saw we had finished. This disappointment was redeemed by the genuine polite and friendly service by french server . Will definitely be back with the family.

Wonderful food. Moist and flavorful steak. Very expensive wine.

Fillet steak was very overcooked. Yorkshires were very dry and tasteless. Puddings were good.

This was my 5th time here (Spitalfields), and the first 4 were meals I would talk about for a couple of weeks. today however, 18th January 2025, was one to forget. The Rump steaks we all had was chewy to a point some parts the knife would not cut it, and I had to put several mouthfuls in a tissues as I could not chew no longer. We asked for 3 medium rare, 1 rare, and we got 4 rare. Sadly, we are all hesitant to 'complain' so 2 just ate it, 1 was happy with theirs all be it chewy, and I would have said something if asked as I left half of it, but I wasn't so just left it. To conclude, we will go back as this is the only negative experience in 5 visits, so possibly ' a bad day'.

Great service even though we came in just for dessert!

Außerordentlich zum Geburtstag meines Mannes- es war von der Begrüßung bis zum Abschied ein toller Abend. Aperitif und Vorspeisen perfekt, Fleisch top. Wunderbar!

Great express menu, gorgeous food & great value for money!

Fabulous lunch for my birthday with my partner - our two servers are lovey and made the experience extra special. Food was absolutely amazing too! Thanks team

The staff are just lovely but my husband and I were served with our food quite a few minutes apart. My medium rare steak was blue and when I commented as much this wasn’t picked up. In summary I liked the cherry negronis and not much else. The £19 deal was £169 for 2 so no deal.

Everything is good but no halal or vegan option like tofu salad or something like this but the food was avesome especially sunday roast

Went for the steak, was fine but very overpriced and not as good as Flat Iron which is like half the price. £5 for a small coke and £4 for a sauce is a bit much. Everything was fine but I’d just go Flat Iron next time

I cannot fault this place. Amazing steak, incredible cocktails, and attentive service. Worth every penny.

Nice restaurant with a lovely atmosphere and great food. The service was excellent, thank you to the staff for making a nice experience.

Fantastic Steak and great January deal. Will definitely be coming back next year as it’s more affordable for people like me

Bueno... solía ir aquí cuando abrió por primera vez y era brillante - desafortunadamente ha caído en el alimento turístico de la casa de carne por debajo de la media Los entrantes de costilla y médula ósea estaban bien, pero una de las tostadas se quemó ligeramente, pero no restó valor al plato La grupa lamentablemente no estaba bien - tendón inmasticable y por lo tanto hizo que todo el filete duro trabajo - la grupa todavía no es un corte barato y debe cocinarse en consecuencia Elegimos un taxi sudafricano de £ 66 - no impresionado - débil - sin cuerpo y una especie de calidad Shiraz que no esperaba, así que de nuevo un poco decepcionado Qué lástima que cuando solía ir había tal vez 20 / 30 covers - ahora es 80 / 120 y una sensación completamente diferente No volveré sin embargo, reembolsaron un filete y 2 lados y ofrecieron una visita de regreso, pero no estoy seguro de que me molestaría

Great! The meat and the service were amazing. I recommend the rib eye.

One of the best roast dinners I have had in a long time the pineapple soda and is to die for!

I attended with my partner on the 5th and we ordered the shared roast. Our booking was 1:45 and we ordered by around 2:10, we did not get our food for almost a whole hour and the steak came out cold and so did the sides for the roast aside from the Mac and cheese. Our waiter was very attentive however people around us that arrived after us had even been served food long before us. For almost £200 and considering all the food was cold even after taking an hour I wouldn’t attend this branch of Hawksmoor again.

What a great roast dinner! We had the rump roast and it was amazing. We also decided to get some sides and I cannot recommend the stuffing enough! Service was so friendly, our server (I think she was called Ashley?) was super lovely. We will definitely return!

Another fabulous dinner at Hawksmoor with close friends from France visiting London. Delicious meat, perfectly cooked starters and veggies. Harry and Andrea were fantastic hosts. I highly recommend the original Hawksmoor Spitafields

Great service and amazing food. Really recommend the beetroot and potted beef starters, so good!!

One of the best meals my boyfriend and I have had in a long time! Went as we had received a voucher for our Christmas present but honestly I would go again paying full price. Our server Harry was lovely and answered all the questions we had about steak size and weight, and which sides best went with them. 10/10 experience!!!

Having been to their other branches, we were sadly disappointed. The Chateaubriand was dry and over cooked. Sunday Roast was tough and hard to chew. Though the appetiser Fillet carpaccio was delicious. Came hungry, left with a bitter taste in our mouths.

Dined on 31st December for lunch, we are a family of 4, with two young children, so were seated next to a noisy table of 8 when the rest of the tables in the seating area were free - why? I really didnt understand the rationale behind this. We all had fillet steak, the portion sizes were not great, my son's steak was stringy. The Brussel sprouts portion was small, tasty but not an adequate portion size. I couldnt fault the service, the waitress was very attentive. On the whole, an ok'ish experience, not good and definitely not great for nearly 400 pounds.

It was our first visit, for New Year's Eve dinner. The starters were very good; we had the beetroot salad and the Devon Crab on toast. For our mains we had a Sirloin and a Fillet. Both were cooked perfectly as we like. The wait staff was very attentive. All in all a very good dinner.

Amazing food, cocktails and wine. Our waiter was fantastic and we felt really looked after. Outstanding evening thank you!

The food was exceptional and the steaks were amazing! Service was great too!

Lovely meal, not cheap! Great service, thank you!

Had the set menu, think it might be a Christmas thing as there was a large group of us but highly recommended. Bit cosy where we were sat and we were quite crammed in but worth a visit if you are nearby.

Very poor experience, let’s the brand down, good cocktails were redeeming feature.

We received a warm welcome on arrival and given a choice of tables to sit at. Staff were friendly and attentive without being intrusive and gave us great advice on both starters and main course. The crab on toast and roasted scallops were both excellent followed by a porterhouse to share which I am ashamed to admit we could not finish so had to take it home. The sides of beef dripping chips and macaroni cheese were beautiful. The chips crunchy on the outside but beautifully fluffy on the inside and we definitely appreciated the five cheeses in the macaroni cheese. Unfortunately we had no room for dessert so tried the salted caramel rolos instead. Will definitely be back again.

Very good experience for a first time Sunday roast. The dish was excellent! However, it turned cold a bit too fast the plate needs to be warmer. About the service the waiter was very pleasant and careful. Until next time to try other dishes!

Tasty roast in a lovely restaurant, staff very welcoming.

Wonderful Sunday Lunch! Brought my mother and father in law for the first time…they really enjoyed it!

Delicious roast. The service (by all three servers and front of house) was incredibly friendly and professional. Very informed and accomodating of my gluten-free guest.

The best roast ever eaten ! this gourmet experience It's value and the help of Attia has been really important! Her suggestions, savoir faire, education and way of communicating with guest has been unforgettable. We'll return!

We went for a classic Sunday roast experience and it did not disappoint. We had both the roast beef and chicken roasts which were just delightful. The peanut butter shortbread was incredible. Great service and lovely ambiance on a Sunday. Highly recommend!

Outstanding! The best possible roast you could hope for. The beef was cooked to perfection, beautifully pink, the vegetables and the gravy were also to die for. I could have eaten 2 of these back to back it was that good.

The food was amazing and cooked to perfection. The staff were also very helpful and pleasant. The only thing I could say was there wasn't enough staff. We waited about 50 mins from the moment we entered the building to actually having any food to eat. The drinks took around 25 mins for us to also receive. Everything we had was perfect just felt we were waiting around.

Perfect meal, drinks and service. I’ve never had a bad experience at Hawksmoor - this branch in particular. The atmosphere is always great, staff are attentive and helpful, and the food is tremendous quality and value. Many thanks for another lovely visit.

Ambiente informale e familiare, servizio amichevole e veloce. Abbiamo assaggiato il famoso arrosto della domenica accompagnato da delle ottime birre locali. Consigliamo vivamente questo locale, sia per la qualità del cibo sia per il servizio simpatico e il conto economico. Grazie mille!

Fantastic food and lovely staff, highly recommend!

Great service but was asked to vacate table soon after I asked for the bill even though we were finishing our wine.

Excellent food and service. Always busy Sunday lunchtime

We had a wonderful experience at Hawksmoor Spitalfields, we took my mum for her birthday and the team made a great fuss over her. A fine evening.

Walked in seating for Sunday roast, was advise about 90 min seating which would be fine if only they did not take our order for first 10 min. Food arrived 30+ min after. We finished the super unfat dry steak and average sides in 20 min (bone marrow was the only great dish). Asked for dessert, with 25 min to spare, waiter came back after 5 min and told us there wasn't enough time. The fastest service was the bill which came one min after.

Food was great. The service staff need to take a minute to slow down. Twice they poured wine for us _ and spread it over over the table. When the mains were served _ they plates where slung at the guests. Perhaps the plates where hot granted, so take provisions to present in gentle manner. For the price we paid, can’t say I’d recommend.Rubbish service ruined it. Unremarkable

An enjoyable experience in Spitalfields. The sirloin was grilled to a perfect medium rare, and the anchovy hollandaise was a revelation. The bill for just me was well over £100, but half of that was drinks, so no surprise. Overall, Hawksmoor delivers exactly what they promise: serious beef, good service, and a memorable meal.

Always have the best time at Hawksmoor. Food and service was 💯

Everyone enjoyed their stakes, but I had the scallops followed by chicken, which was fantastic. We'd forgotten the wine we liked before but again were recommended a very good red. Great food and service.
