The food here is very tasty. The steaks can either be cooked medium or rare and you get two servings of your plate. The restaurant is very fast paced as it is very crowded and very busy. There is a line, on weekends atleast, that wrap around the building and if you do not line up before opening, you will have to wait around an hour for the first batch to finish their meals. Because the place was very crowded the service was a bit slow. I asked for a knife and it took asking twice to get one. There was also no salt or sauce for my table and we were asked if it was ok to share with the table next to us.

The unlimited steak is nonsense. I was served, offered seconds and that was it. The steak, fries and sauce are ok. However it doesn’t justify the large queue. Overhyped! The dessert menu lacks information as there’s only names and pictures of the puddings and no further information (ingredients), we were left wondering for some time until we’ve asked for the bill. Not bad, but wouldn’t recommend it.

Food was really good, so tasty! Service was good and we didn't have to wait too long for a table on a Saturday night, bearing in mind you can't book. Not too expensive either for London, would definitely come back!

Personal muy molesto y grosero. Teníamos una mesa para 5 reservados, pero 1 persona estaba llegando tarde debido a compromisos de trabajo. No nos sentarían a menos que todos estuvieran presentes. Esperábamos conseguir la mesa para 5 y ordenar para la persona que viene tarde, ya que teníamos un espectáculo para llegar. No nos permitieron esto y no eran complacientes. Entienda que los restaurantes tienen sus políticas, pero ser acomodaticios o mostrar flexibilidad a su clientela es una parte importante de brindar un buen servicio.

There is one meal on the menu, a sliced steak served with fries and a “walnut salat”. The steak was nice, yes. Salat and fries on the lower end of scale. Narrow seating, loud atmosphere and compared to other UK waiters staff might be described a bit pushy- although still polite. But we could feel it is not the individual guests that counts but the throughput. E.g. once we were just done they got us the bill without us asking.

The service was friendly and attentive, and the steak frites was absolutely delicious, perfectly cooked, and served with a rich, flavorful sauce. The only downside is the price, which is a bit high, but if you're looking for a top-quality steak, definitely worth it.

This was just not good, the steak was tough, kind of cold and the service was mediocre at best. I would not spend my money here again. Definitely do not go if you have to queue (thank god we didn’t). I have been to the L’Entrecôte in Bordeaux many times and the whole experience and the quality of food is far superior to the restaurant in London. It was one of my favourite places for a reliable meal when I was living in Bordeaux so I was excited to try the London restaurant but I was extremely disappointed. I will not be returning

Although I love steak, I have mixed feelings about this place. Let’s start with the atmosphere—I honestly can’t stand it. The chairs are packed so close together that you can hear every conversation around you, which makes it hard to enjoy your meal. The service isn’t great either; the restaurant is so busy that it takes ages for the staff to come back to you. Now, onto the steak review, which I know you’re waiting for. For the price, it’s not bad. That said, they really need to season the steak properly with salt—and the fries too! The sauce is definitely the star of the meal and carries the flavours. The fries are nice and crispy, but again, they need salt to really shine. All in all, it’s not bad for the price, and I’ll be coming back, but there’s definitely room for improvement.

I don't get the hype and I wouldn't come back. We ended up standing in a queue for ages to be seated, which is completely unnecessary and performative in 2024. And it's not "steak and chips twice"...it's about a third of a steak and a load of low-quality, barely warm French fries twice. The service is obviously geared towards getting people put as quickly as possible to clear the queue. The steak itself was nice and the sauce was excellent, but just not worth it.

This is a branch of the famous Parisian restaurant. Be prepared for a lineup in the evening but the space is huge and it moves fast. It’s a noisy loud and crowded atmosphere, in a good way. They only serve one item, which is unlimited steak and chips for £31. This also includes a salad and bread (which was hot and delicious) Steak can be ordered, rare, medium or well done. The sauce that goes with it is delicious. Service is fast. Lots of dessert options as well. We had the meringue with icecream but in hindsight should’ve picked the sticky toffee. Overall amazing experience.

I was really disappointed with my recent visit. While the food and portion sizes were good, the service from one particular waitress completely ruined the evening. She was rude and rushed us through the order, which left me feeling uncomfortable and shocked throughout the meal. I’ve never experienced such poor treatment at a restaurant before. I traveled all the way from Southampton to spend a special evening with my friend and daughter, and this experience spoiled it. I hope the management takes feedback seriously so that other guests aren’t left feeling this way.

My friend invited me to dine at L'Entrecôte, a place I had never visited before. Although the restaurant looked lovely, the service was a shock. When I briefly went to the restroom, the waitress came over to ask how I wanted my meat cooked. Unsure of what she meant, I turned to my friend and spoke in French, confused because I hadn't realized the restaurant only had a fixed menu – I was expecting a regular menu before deciding on my order. Not fully understanding, I mentioned that I might not order, and my friend ordered just for herself and her daughter. The waitress, responding in French and quite rudely, said we couldn’t stay if I wasn’t planning to eat and that she’d need to check with her manager. Her tone was unprofessional and took me by surprise. My friend went ahead and ordered two meals, and when the salad arrived, she explained the concept to me. Concerned about my mustard allergy, I then noticed the sauce on the salad and meat and asked if mustard was in it. The waitress returned and, instead of being helpful, brusquely scolded me for not mentioning my allergy sooner. I explained that my friend didn’t know I had one. We had also asked for water, which she forgot to serve us. When they brought my salad back, it had no sauce at all – not even a simple olive oil dressing – and the same happened with my steak. When I asked if they could provide some butter, she flatly refused. For the steak, it wasn’t a big issue since a bit of salt and pepper did the trick, but it felt dismissive. The single-set menu concept is actually quite unique, but as a first-timer, I was caught off guard. A simple explanation would have made all the difference. The food itself – both the meat and portion sizes – was good, but the waitress’s attitude and lack of service really soured the experience for both me and my friend.

Huge queues outside to get in and no bookings available. The queue moved fast enough and we got a table for six in fifteen minutes. There’s no menu, just a wine list and desserts. For starters there’s a tasty salad with nuts. For main it’s steak in a lovely sauce and chips. They ask how you want the steak done but all our steaks looked the same!! The plates looked like small portions but the waitress came round with second helpings of steak and chips so it was a good portion in the end. The red wine was ok, not amazing. The desserts were all excellent. I do recommend this place. We all enjoyed it and it’s a buzzing atmosphere inside with exemplary service. The price for our meals and half a bottle of wine each was about £60, which was very decent value.

Very rude service, they’re trying their fastest to shop you out. Bill was on the table and paid for before we finished our wine. Tiny tiny portions. About 200 grams probably for the two servings that are sliced ridiculously thin to give you the illusion of more steak for your buck. 31 pounds is a travesty for the quality of service and food. Mustard salad was also not it. They chucked it on our table as soon as the menu was taken away. Fun for the experience but horrible horrible food and service. Will not be frequenting again.

To be honest, this place used to be one of my favourite in the City. However, it seems that it has changed a lot since covid. Good quality has dropped substantially, service is awful and the inside hasn't changed since I've been there first time 10 years ago. Service felt like they are in a hurry or something, coming for our plates before we even have finished food. Constantly bothering us at the table giving an impression that this is not the place to chill but eat quick, don't have any long conversations and leave quick. Really awful place to go now. Which is a shame as I loved the concept of this restaurant.

I use to come here years go as a place to eat after a few drinks. After their Marylebone branch became tik tok famous, this place has become popular again. Marylebone is averaging hour long queues. I was able to walk in for a table of 2 on a Friday night with no queue at all. This place is simple and you get the set meal. It starts with a standard salad with walnuts and some bread. The main is steak and fries. The steak is a sirloin and you can have it rare, medium or well. It comes with a mysterious but delicious greens sauce. Once you have finished your plate, they come round with another serving of steak and fries if you want it, great bonus. We had a few glasses of their st emillion wine which was nice. This is a great value place for some tasty food. Wouldn’t recommend for special occasion or if you had to queue a long time.

If you don't like decisions about what to eat, this place makes it easy: well done, medium, rare or blue. In contrast to the main menu, their deserts menu is pretty extensive. Recommend for anyone who likes steak and chips, but not great for vegetarians (probably no options for vegans).

branch of the famous L'Entrecote from Paris. Food and experience is pretty much the same as Paris. there's only one thing on the menu, steak and fries, you can choose blue, rare, medium or well done for the steak which is doused with their famous house sauce. Fries are fried to a perfect crisp. For dessert, can choose from Creme Brulee, Strawberries and cream, profiteroles, chocolate cake, strawberry merengue. They don't take reservations so be prepared to queue and will only seat you if your entire party is present.

Este restaurante francés poco conocido cumplió con las expectativas primarias desde la perspectiva de mi esposa. Mi esposa dijo que mientras estábamos cerca (Diez Manchester) un corto paseo para ver que el restaurante estaba lleno y había una larga fila de huéspedes vigilados por la seguridad. La multitud que esperaba se mezcló bien y conocimos a una pareja encantadora que vivía cerca estaban en línea con nosotros que hemos estado en línea muchas veces que lo recomiendo encarecidamente. Estábamos sentados cerca de la cocina y para ver el flujo exacto de alimentos y bebidas con el jefe de cocina supervisando el servicio suave y más eficiente, era simplemente una obra maestra en cómo cocinar y preparar alimentos y bebidas (vino) a una casa llena expresando satisfacción todos El menú sirve solo bistec y los bistecs fueron cocinados a la perfección y nos sorprendió servidores devueltos con segundos casi al final de nuestra comida... sí por favor y gracias! La salsa que acompañaba los cortes tiernos era dinámica, por decir lo menos. Un plato lateral con ensalada bijou y maravilloso aderezo nos tuvo tan contentos con la comida perfecta. Como mi esposa señaló, debe ser difícil para todos los demás restaurantes que rodean RVD ver la fila continuamente entusiasta de huéspedes esperando ser recibidos en interiores. Vaya, qué experiencia maravillosa. Como ex inspector de algunos de los hoteles boutique, restaurantes, posadas de lujo y mejores hoteles de clase en los Estados Unidos y partes de Europa, incluido el Reino Unido, RDV está allí para satisfacer las expectativas más populares para un restaurante francés en Londres. Esta es una VISITA OBLIGADA no solo para los lugareños, sino para los turistas y vecinos por igual.

The starters, salad and bread, were really nice though simple. I ordered a medium steak and it was a disaster. The whole batch was chewy and hard to swallow. I expected it to turn out well but no. The second serving was the same. However, I don't think it was about the way it was cooked, the meat itself had so much sinew. The fries and desserts were great. Normally they offer 2 servings of steaks and fries but when the waitress offered my second serving of fries I wasn't ready and she didn't offer it again. We complained about the quality of the meat at the end and the manager told me to complain before eating it all next time 😂 She said they could have changed it and offered us a complimentary dessert as an apology. Everything is vintage and feels like travelling in time except for the tablecloths. They just use white plastic one-off tablecloths which do not really match with the atmosphere. There is only one knife and fork. The glasses are only one type. When my husband and I entered the restaurant (Wednesday night), we encountered a small queue. However, we were seated quite quickly. The restaurant was packed, very fast-paced and loud. There is no privacy between the tables.

Pros: - Vintage style with a cute charm. - Super fast service turnaround. - Responsive manager and customer service. - FOOD WAS OUTSTANDING! - Wine was beautiful (I had 250ml of the bordeaux). - Seated quickly. Cons: - Extremely tight seating, 5 inches apart from the tables next to us. - Some the cuts of meat were far too chewy. - The waiters were very overwhelmed and could not spend adequate time with each table to make us feel welcome and catered to. - The fast service style and restaurant-like style juxtapose one another. We felt like we were in a high-end diner. Overall: Great food, Great Service, and professional customer care really make this a go-to if you want to grab a bite in London. However, for a full course meal (for 2) it cost around £100. This is a high price to pay to sit on a bench shoulder to shoulder with what felt like 10 other pairs of people. I wouldn't do a romantic date here at all.

Do not recommend. There are plenty of tables available on a Monday morning. We were assigned to sit close to the entrance, an aisle table that may block the walkway. Asked the staff to change, she stared at us with eye widely open and asked what can she help. Very unfriendly. The place is so small that the staff need to pull the table out every time to let the customers get seated. Food is not very exciting. A small portion of salads with some baguette. Can barely taste the favour of the steak. The green sauce just cover all of the scent of the steak. Fries were very fair. Pretty much tiny broken pieces instead of complete long thin fries. And it cost over £40 per person. You can find many restaurants much better than this with this budget.

I’ve seen this place on TikTok and thought it looks great. I love that they just do steak and fries. It makes it so they do what they do really well. I wasn’t sure if like the sauce as I’m picky sometimes, but it was delightful! After the salad, the steak and fries came out and it was perfectly cooked and the taste was amazing. Loved every bite! My only complaint was that I wanted more, just as I said it out loud my server came back with a second serving that’s included with the meal. This place is worth every penny and I will for sure be back!!!

Le Relais de Venise l'Entrecôte offers a straightforward dining experience, where the food is undeniably good, but the overall experience falls short in several key areas. The signature steak and fries are perfectly cooked, and the secret sauce lives up to its reputation, delivering a delightful and satisfying flavor. However, this is where the positives mostly end. Unfortunately, the restaurant lacks atmosphere. The interior feels sterile, with little effort put into creating a warm or inviting ambiance. There’s no sense of comfort or intimacy, which leaves the dining experience feeling rather impersonal. One of the biggest drawbacks is the pace at which you are made to eat. The staff rush you through your meal, making it hard to enjoy the food at a leisurely pace. It feels as if the goal is to turn over tables as quickly as possible, which detracts from the pleasure of the dining experience. Speaking of tables, they are incredibly close together. The space between them is so limited that it becomes a challenge to even get in and out of your seat without having to physically move the table. This cramped layout means that you feel squeezed in, with no personal space to enjoy your meal, and it can be uncomfortable, especially during busier times. Overall, while the food at Le Relais de Venise l'Entrecôte is undeniably good, the lack of ambiance, rushed service, and cramped seating make it difficult to fully enjoy what could be a fantastic meal. It’s a place to visit if you're only concerned with the food, but for a relaxed and comfortable dining experience, this may not be the best choice.

We went here for dinner on Monday evening around 7:30 pm. We expected there to be a queue, but we were lucky and were able to get in straight away. Beforehand we received 2 pieces of baguette and a salad. There are no spreads and the salad consists of: lettuce with walnuts and a vinaigrette. Not very special. The Supreme Court followed not much later. French fries with steak and the famous sauce. I had medium and my girlfriend had rare. We couldn't really tell a difference between the two steaks. The cooking seemed the same for both. The taste was good, the meat was tender, but otherwise not special for the price you paid (40 euros, drinks not included and service charge included). We didn't have dessert. So we can't judge this. These looked delicious on other guests, by the way. The service was fast. You just don't get long to sit at the table, we quickly got the bill. The restaurant was not full. All in all fine but not again. The hype isn't worth it in my opinion.

Fantastic atmosphere, good food and service. Reasonable prices. However it was quite a queue. But the one disappointment was the loud sound of customers competing to try to talk to each other, I think the lack of sound absorbing material should be addressed.

Feels very French with the simplest menu ever - salad to start, steak and fries and a choice of dessert. That’s it. Their gimmick is the second serving of steak and fries. It’s a place to visit once.

Absolutely brilliant. No pre-booking so prepare to wait in line but it is well worth the wait.

It’s pure hype, average food, nothing special, unpleasant/unfriendly team members. Service is rubbish and you still get charged for it. They rush you off the table as soon as possible. Save your money and go somewhere nice.

Went in as a group of 5 at 5.30PM on a Friday, the restaurant was about 1/3 full. 4 of us wanted to eat 1 did not who is a Hindu and vegetarian (and had already had food). We wanted 4 set menus and a bottle of wine for the table so even the guest who was not eating would have still provided some economic benefit for the restaurant to host him by having a drink with us whilst we ate. The manager told us this was not possible and that everyone at the table would have to eat, so we left and went elsewhere. I have been eating at this restaurant for years and even remember being taken by my father when I was a young child, the food is delicious but the experience has put me off returning unfortunately.

A perfect 5 stars. The walnut salad was crisp and well seasoned with a nice tart dressing. Steak was perfectly cooked and tender, served with crispy fries that were fluffy on the inside and a liberal helping of their signature sauce. I had the brule for desert and it was creamy, with just the right sweetness and a delicate layer of caramel. I've only ever given 5 stars a handful of times so they have impressed me.

Been coming here for a while but tonight was nothing like we used to experience. Overlooked, rushed, passive agressive. We've been to this restaurant in London (both) and Paris, used to be one of our favourites. But today was disappointing. Couldn't even comment on allergies.

Great steak and chips. French bistro style atmosphere. We got seated quickly, and our food and drinks order taken immediately. Steak was cooked to perfection and the sauce on it was very tasty. Highly recommended and very reasonably priced for central London.

Simply delicious, and great service. One thing though I've noticed in this recent visit, the portion of meat is smaller than before.

Poor service and no common sense. The place was half empty on a Friday in the city (deserted usually) but they were pretty strict still in wanting us out after one and half an hour which I would have understood if there was a queue or of it was busy during the week. No smiles by the French maids either Overall very poor and inflexible customer service

If you want steak and chips this is the place to go. It is all they serve but it's fantastic steak cooked to your liking with seconds if you can cope. No dessert just coffee.

Stunning. Delicious. Fast paced! We were starving and were worried about queuing but it’s like a conveyor belt of meat and fries it all comes super quickly and it’s delicious. The wine also fab. I will be back

One of my favourite brasseries. The set menu never disappoints. Modern and city corporate vibe for lunch. Excellent service and always busy. It's not a family restaurant for those who don't know the place. I still prefer the restaurant at Porte Maillot maybe because it's in Paris!

Food was great, salad was nice and steak was amazing. What didn’t amuse me though was the wait. When I called they said they don’t take reservations, so when I got there the queue was very very long, stretching to the back alley of the restaurant. We waited about an hour or so till we got out table. Dessert was ok.

The place is very dirty and messy and the 2 Asian guys are very rude and arrogant with the customers is my first bad review in my life . Subway bosses should do something about this. Homeless people in front of the door avoid this place

Our server was lovely but the overall experience was very bad. They hadn't turned the taps on in the bathroom so I couldn't wash my hands and had to find someone to activate them. The front doors were left wide open so the entire restaurant was freezing. Our nachos came out ice cold and I had to send my mac and cheese back as it tasted terrible. I don't normally do that or write bad reviews but this was an exception.

Had to call the shop 6 times to find out how long our delivery would take as it had already gone way past the estimated delivery time. We kept getting told "it's on its way". Ended up having to drive to them as they were ignoring our calls and the food was already 30mins late. By the time we eventually received our food, it was cold, soggy and flavourless. It's very overpriced for what you get. Two regular portions of sweet potato fries cost £10!!! And they were very average, had plenty better. Cost us £44 for two of us which is far too much considering how bad the service is, poor food quality and shocking delivery time. Would never order again.

We found this hidden gem during our first visit to London. I recall we satisfied a craving for a family place to have lunch. Despite we were in Trafalgar Square, which was particularly in the city centre, this restaurant was like a hole in the wall. They serve quite big portions, and I will not lie if I say that you can’t go wrong with anything you choose on their menu. There was really vibrant atmosphere, moreover, its owner hosted us on that day. We didn’t feel rushed or uncomfortable and combined with top-notch service, I would say that this Italian restaurant was out of this planet. When we make our next trip to London, we will definitely make a repeat visit. Hope, it will open soon.
