Windsor Grill in Windsor and Maidenhead

Can't believe they closed down. Very sad

A wonderful restaurant with the friendliest staff I've encountered for a very long time. The meat was amazing and cooked to perfection, by far the best steak I've ever had in Berkshire and maybe all of the UK. The atmosphere and decor is nice and cosy. It's an independent restaurant with staff that really cares. I went for my birthday but will definitely go again, many times! If you like meat, I can't think of a better place to go.

Fantastic food and service. We were planning another visit till the waitress told us that the owner is retiring and the Windsor Grill will be closing on 14-09-24 Just as we thought we had found our new favourite restaurant.

Excellent food, steaks very high quality and great service

The best steaks in Windsor! We have visited The Windsor Grill for many years and the steaks are always perfect. My wife had a beautiful fillet steak and I tried the Veal Chop which was one of the specials. They were both cooked to perfection! The service was fantastic.

Really awesome ! Excellent steak !

Great place in Windsor. Very attentive and polite staff. Food choice was amazing and fantastic quality. Would definitely recommend The Windsor Grill as a place to visit.

Love this place! Great food, great service!

Great food of a very high quality in a nice atmosphere and comfortable surroundings. Very friendly staff, who went the extra mile for my son as it was his 21st birthday.

Food was of very high quality with a friendly service. It was my son's 21st birthday and he was made to feel very welcome:)

Absolutely amazing We stayed in Windsor one night and searched on trip advisor for somewhere nice to eat. I truly appreciate people taking the time to review restaurants as that’s how we de use where to eat! This was amazing we had prawns and Scot h egg to start and then steaks 🥩 fillet they were honestly one of the best steaks I’ve ever eaten. Great friendly service and such a lovely place We absolutely loved it Thanks

The best meal of our weeklong trip thur England. We arrived very early for our reservation planning to have an extra drink. They were just opening for the evening and accommodated with no hesitation. Half of our time there it was pretty quiet but we were happy to see it filling up. Service was excellent, food was perfect. Two of us had the steak au poivre, my friend had a chicken special and mushroom soup which she really enjoyed. It was walkable from our stay in the busier part of Windsor and in a historic building. What more could you want?

Excellent value early doors menu with no additions for selecting steak. Mains also include enough sides, so ordering extra is optional, not a necessity. When one starter on the menu had run out we were offered something similar, rather than pushed to a different option. Lovely, friendly service.

Great food, the most amazing cheesecake dessert. Great service - we will be coming back.

Staying in Windsor for a few days I looked on line for a restaurant particularly one who provided gluten free options I booked at the Windsor Grill on arrival we were shown to our table and drinks arrived quickly I was told that GF options were available on most items on the menu and the bread was made in house The food was excellent we both enjoyed our meal and will definitely recommend this restaurant to family who live in the area.

The quality of the raw materials (steaks) was clearly top notch and they were cooked perfectly. Was not impressed with the onion side dish and would liked to have a greater choice of (5 rather than 3) red wines. The Merlot was good. Perhaps the addition of an Australian Cabernet Sauvignon and a Californian Zinfandel would be impactful. We tried neither starters nor deserts so will put that to rights on another visit. We want to go back as the steaks were better than enjoyed elsewhere.

This restaurant has become our get to go place . The staff is always so kind and friendly , they engage in spontaneous conversations which makes us feel like we are having our dinner at home, but cooked by professional chefs! The food is just devine , wheither you're having an early menu which is a great deal but delish , or the a la carte which is always having interesting things on the specials . The steak is just delicious and I recommend the salmon as well which is generous portion always . What I really love about this place is that welcomes kids, so the atmosphere is always warming. We are so delighted to have such a great restaurant that is family friendly and has delicious food always in Windsor, especially that is an independent business and you can notice by every single bit that she chefs put in creating their amazing food . Don't miss this place if you're visiting Windsor .

Found this GEM while on short walk from Holiday Inn Express on Alma Road. Menus were posted in window so I learned about the set price 2-3 course meals. Ala carte prices seems very reasonable. Found the staff to be very attentive and easy to understand in English. Taste and portion size just right. Manager/Owner stopped by our table twice. We dined early without an reservation, based on limited tables I would suggest reservations during prime dining hours 6:30 to 8:30 PM.

Great ambience Good conversation Such enjoyable food

Our first time here and wow, the food was amazing and the staff are lovely… will definitely recommend and we will be back… thank you for making my birthday extra special xx

This was the second time we’ve eaten here and it didn’t disappoint. The food was delicious and out quickly. Drink selection was great too. Kids loved their steak and pasta meals respectively. Will be going again when next in Windsor!

One of our favorite local restaurants! Incredible steaks and impeccable service.

We visited Legoland as a family and chose to eat at Windsor Grill two nights in a row as we have a slightly autistic son who loves chicken strips. Needless to say that they were absolutely fabulous. We had steak - cooked to perfection either medium or bloody; aspargus and pea risotto; mushroom soup; apple pie and cheese pudding. All just heavenly and perfectly spiced and presented! The waiters were friendly and welcoming, the chef outstanding in allowing us to have a look at the kitchen as my younger son is aspiring to be a chef one day. Due to taking the children, we were on the early menu before 6.30 and it was great as the restaurant wasn't too busy. We will hopefully be back soon again and can highly recommend it. Thank you everyone at Windsor Grill, you have made our trip extra special and we were utterly spoilt.

Fabulous evening out before our day at Legoland. There's nothing we could fault the place on Attentive staff, extremely high standard of cuisine (even the quince paste is homemade!), steak cooked to perfection, barbecued chicken wings as a starter were simply divine, apple cake dessert a dream. We can highly recommend it. - and sorry, the pictures don't do it justice.

I’m still a little shaken after a really scary experience here, I don’t know what is going on in the chefs life for him to loose all sense of humanity but I went in to ask if I could use the toilet as it was a real emergency with my 4 year old and I was on my way back from a hospital appointment. The chef physically blocked the door when we were right in front of it, whilst my daughter was in terrible pain, I said I’d pay, suggested we buy food, drinks anything and he got even more aggressive. If he does this to us god knows what happens to the food if someone sends it back, avoid at all costs. I hope he gets some counselling to deal with his issues.

Great restaurant, service and food fantastic, will definitely be returning.

Absolutely phenomenal place. They squeezed us in at very short notice, the food was amazing and the service is absolutely top class. Worth every penny and more - will definitely be back. Thank you for an amazing evening!

Disappointing meal, usually very good but not this time. Not busy on a Friday night. Wonder why?

Lovely meal , we went for my birthday , they went out of there way to accommodate us and make sure that we had a lovely night.

Haven’t been in a long while, had a great dining experience. Food was great, service was good although not perfect and definitely not as good as our previous visit (albeit several years ago!). Had indicated that we were celebrating birthdays (through the OpenTable booking app) and there was zero acknowledgment of this on the day. Certainly didn’t detract from a great dining experience overall though.

Had a lovely evening celebrating my partners birthday 🎂 food was amazing aswell as the staff. Will definitely be returning to try more of the menu.

The ribeye steak was full of flavour and the starters were really nice. Also really enjoyed the banana bread pudding dessert. Every dish was perfect and the staff were really friendly. I would 100% recommend this restaurant.

The service and food was delicious, I am so glad we found this as the food is locally sourced and taste amazing. When we are back in uk will definitely be back.

Popped in last night after a day at Legoland and were blown away. Dillon and the female waitresses were so helpful and patient. My daughter has autism and struggles to find food that she likes usually and Dillon recommend a mocktail for her that she was delighted with but the batter on her fish was 'out of this world' which is high praise from a 15 year old that usually just grunts!! First time in months that the plate was cleared! I had the house special chicken which again was amazing. I've never had chicken that's so moist and flavourful! My partner had Ribeye and agreed that it was one of the best that he'd had. It was so lovely to use an independent restaurant, eat blooming lovely food in a beautiful restaurant. Highly recommend this place!

We had an absolutely delicious early evening menu - good variety of food excellently cooked and presented and perfect service. Staff were very efficient, friendly and helpful. Could not speak more highly of the whole experience and look forward very much to returning.

Best steak ever. Fantastic service. What you imagine a meal out to be and never get but last night ticked all the boxes. 10/10 perfection

Fantastic service and wonderful setting. Very welcoming and attentive

My family and I had a great time at Windsor Grill. The staffs made our night even more pleasant as they were very friendly, helpful and welcoming which complemented with the warm ambience. The meals were fresh and delicious, and the restaurant served the best cocktail that I had in Windsor.

Lovely ambience and an informal atmosphere. We had excellent service and the steaks were exceptional. It was a great evening and my mate thoroughly enjoyed his birthday dinner. Coming back

Lovely setting, very expensive though. We had the chateaubreand for two. I honestly thought for £74 presentation would have been better however it came with some salad leaf and crisps which I thought odd however it was very tasty. The waitress from Macedonia as outstanding such a lovely lady.

Wonderful food, great attentive staff- what more can you ask for?

Always a pleasure as usual, great service and great food *****

What a lovely meal we had. In Windsor for a long weekend and staying near the Windsor Grill. We looked on TripAdvisor and saw the great reviews so thought we’d give the place a go. We were there early so opted for the Early Evening menu offer. And what a great choice that was. All the staff were so very friendly, chatty and attentive throughout our visit. On hand but never pushy. Couldn’t fault them at all. And the food was great. The halloumi and chicken wing starters were excellent. The rump steak was huge and cooked perfectly as was the beetroot risotto. And the vanilla cheesecake was amazing. A proper cheesecake with a hazelnut praline that had you wishing you never finish it. So more-ish. And all of the above for £25 each. Amazing and thoroughly recommended.

Excellent service and great food. Highly recommend

Excellent as always. Great food and friendly, attentive staff

Very good meal, lovely restaurant which was cosy and a great atmosphere

Chose the restaurant for a special family birthday and was looking for a nice meal and ambiance. The restaurant was lovely, nice choice of food, cocktails. Service team lovely, friendly and welcoming. We enjoyed our visit very much.

Best steak I can remember having. Perfect smokey char on the outside and cooked to perfection. The prawn starter was superb and really set me up for the main. The sides of chunky chips and greens were perfectly cooked and seasoned. The staff are superb and always on hand without being up in your face. Everyone at our table had a great evening

Beautiful food, well presented and delicious! I vast wine menu supports the food menu. Service was fast & efficient. They clearly know what they're doing. I had liver n onions , my wife had steak. We shared two nibbles and one dessert. With two drinks came out at £80. Definitely worth a visit if you like meat based dishes.

It was lovely, somewhere we’ve wanted to try for years and it didn’t disappoint.

Another perfect meal at the Windsor Grill. Unusually food , on this occasion was chosen from the Valentines specials menu. This proved to be a good choice. As on previous occasions the accompanying wine and service were both of a high standard. To be fair this is not a cheap restaurant but it does provide a consistently good product and remains , in my opinion , one of the best restaurants in the area.

Super service, lovely ambiance, great food. Will definitely be returning. Highly recommend the chateaubriand steak - cooked to perfection and fantastic skinny fries too.

This restaurant never fails to delight. The ambiance is relaxed, the staff always welcoming, which befits a team who know their business and have been there for years. The food is always top notch and perfectly prepared and, with a wine list to explore and enjoy, its the prefect place for a most enjoyable evening.. The stylish, long lasting gem of Windsor.

Windsor Grill was splendid. From being seated and served to paying our bill. The food and wine was delicious. Next time I visit Windsor I will most definitely book in again.

We went there on a Thursday at 5.45 I had my choice off the a-la-carte menu and my partner had the early evening menu. Other than the price it was difficult to see the difference. Having said that it was my choice and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Great place and easy parking.

Such a lovely restaurant. Great food, lovely staff. Within walking distance of the castle

We have a fantastic dinner at Windsor Grill !! Ivana, our server , was absolutely amazing from her hospitality, to her care through constantly checking up on us through our meal. All staff were quite attentive and food was so fresh and hot, which was delightful.

Great customer service and vast selection of French wines! Cosy atmosphere and delicious steak tartare and T-bone steak which was cooked to perfection medium rare!

Very strong restaurant but on the expensive side. The meat was as tender as I have ever had. The vegetables were sublime and were the highlight for me. Service was warm and impeccable. Having not been before we thought may be a bit stuffy, dress code etc, but certainly wasn’t the case. Wouldn’t go for trainers, but shirt/ polo and jean would be fine. Seemed to welcome kids and its a relaxed atmosphere. Wine was excellent. With hindsight would go for an individual steak cut next time.

Wow what an amazing place. I had just had the honour or receiving my MBE at the castle and this was the perfect end to an amazing day. We were greeted with Kia Royales ( on the house ). Then from the incredible nibbles of Pork scratchings with apple sauce. ( believe me you’ve never had better ). Starters were amazing, soup, mushrooms in garlic sauce on bruschetta, scotch eggs cooked to perfection ( flavour of the day was curry) the look on my grand daughter face said it all. Mmmmmmmmmm. Main meals of calves liver, fillet steak in peppercorn sauce and chicken breast in a lovely sauce. We all said it was faultless, amazing superb….. then onto desserts. A starting dessert for two ( should have been for 4 ). Every item exquisite including the Christmas pudding ice cream, crème brûlée, Elton mess, almond tart and more. The Italian Waitrose, sorry didn’t catch her name, was a real bonus as my daughter and granddaughter had come over from Italy. Chatting in Italian, explaining Italian grammar ( for my granddaughter) and soooooo attentive. This place is a must if you are in or around Windsor.

Absolutely incredible food all the way, one of the best meals of my life bloody amazing! I had the steak and the blue cheese sauce was divine

Great Steak as always, lovely to be back, lovely bottle of wine as well.

The only diners in restaurant so lacked a little ambience for the evening planned

My first visit to Windsor Grill and it was fabulous! Warmly greeted by all staff and there for my daughter’s 21st birthday celebration meal. All staff members were attentive, food was exquisite and looking forward to visiting again! The atmosphere is cosy and great advice on pairing wine with food. Special shout out to Marta who took such good care of us.

Had a great meal here & the staff were brilliant, Will definitely be going back again 👍

This cozy restaurant is a gem to old Windsor! My wife and I had the early bird dinner and the food and the prize are both absolutely amazing!

One of my favourites in Windsor. Great chef and team.

Very festive! Lovely staff and great food! Thank you.

Really comfortable dinner with my wife. Careful and unobtrusive service together with simple and good quality food. That is what you wanna have when you go with simple middle week diner. Thanks team. Definitely will come back.

An excellent meal. My steak was cooked exactly as I asked. The wine list was perfect covering a wide selection and at a good price. The staff were very friendly and attentive. A great evening out.

Enjoyable evening event with colleagues at Windsor Grill. Bubble and Squeak and sirloin steak very good. Also enjoyed Eton Mess and Windsor twist. Thank you for an enjoyable evening!

Absolutely fantastic. We loved it all, food, service everything

After touring Windsor Castle, what a fantastic way to end the day by going to Windsor Grille. Just a short walk from the castle, the cozy restaurant is beautiful, very clean, well-appointed, has an excellent staff and very innovative and capable chef. The front-of-house manager Dilon made us feel comfortable and made sure everything was perfect.

Best steak in Windsor I've been coming here regularly for years and came again last week. The steak is consistently excellent, with really friendly service and great sides. Can definitely recommend. It's worth every penny.

Beautiful food & fantastic service. Couldn’t ask for more. Thank you

Very nice meal. Couldn’t fault the service and the attentiveness. Slightly over priced but for a Special Occasion would be a lovely treat.

Absolutely amazing find, fabulous welcoming staff, great steak menu with vegetarian and fish options, loads of side and sauce options, kids menu, with great wine menu and cocktails too! Short drive to castle and close to Legoland too with parking on road

Amazing evening everything was perfect. Staff were very attentive and lovely, food was fab and the decor and ambiance was great. We had a really enjoyable experience and have told all our friends. We will be back

Excellent meal as usual. Early Bird very good value.

My husband and I celebrated our anniversary in this wonderful and cosy place. Excellent service and very, very delicious food. We'll definitely come back again :)

Very similar in style and presentation to Côte Brasserie. I had steak tartare to start but it had barely any seasoning, let alone all the other condiments that were missing with no egg yolk in sight, and served with stale crisps and a random long hair. My sirloin steak was okay but the tomato, onion, and basil salad was very disappointing. The house malbec was good and service friendly. The atmosphere was cosy.

Visited with 6 others and we had a fantastic meal. All the courses were tasty and high quality. There were no dud dishes across the group. Staff were great and wine plentiful

Excellent! Steaks and mixed grill were cooked perfectly

The food was exceptional would highly recommend it

It was our first time here. We went for a family birthday celebration dinner and their customer service was fantastic. They were very attentive and great with their recommendations. Fab food and fab cocktails. The food was absolutely delicious with a great selection of starters and mains. Thank you for a great evening!

Booking the restaurant up until the day of the event was smoothless. Nothing was too much trouble. Great restaurant, choice of food vast, cooked perfectly, attention to detail was on point and the staff were amazing. We were a group of 35 and all the orders were correct. One of the best restaurant experiences encountered in a long time!!! We will be back...

Over priced. Presentation of the food was poor. Can’t say I’d go again at the prices they charge. We we tucked in an alcove and forgotten.

A thoroughly lovely meal and a knowledgeable team to look after guests.

Just happened to pop into this restaurant unplanned, looking for a family friendly restaurant. We were met by a lovely and friendly waiter. With my dietary restrictions I am limited to seafood and vegetarian so I opted for their grilled Argentinian prawns amd chips. Everything was cooked perfectly, the prawns were not rubbery like other places, quite succulent, and the amount I got for £25 was a lovely surprise. On to dessert, being a visitor to the UK and wanting to try british cuisine I had the Eton Mess which was quite delicious. Would definitely visit here again. Essentially, great and friendly staff, delicious food, first class service.

On the whole it was a good meal. The blackened prawns were of a very good quality. I thought the steak was of a decent enough quality without being top quality. Service throughout was pleasant enough. There are some niggles they need to get right. For example when I am spending £40 on a steak and ask for mustard I don't expect a plastic Colman's bottle to be plonked on the table. That being said food was 7/10 and had a nice evening.

Everything was excellent staff, food , the whole thing.

Amazing restaurant- walked in without booking. Very accommodating for a Friday evening. Food and service was outstanding- clean plates all round. The chateubriand was by far the best I have ever had!

Food delicious, extremely good service and good selection of wines.

Unbelievable food and incredible service. Would definitely go back

Nice restaurant, good food and service was particularly good. Made to feel v welcome in the restaurant

This restaurant was recommended by the hotel staff where we were staying. Good recommendation. We ordered off their early menu which offered good choices at very good prices. The food and service were very good. The only reasons for not giving five stars: 1. we were seated at a table in the corner of the back of the restaurant although the front of the restaurant had plenty of space; 2. A pet peeve- great service during the meal but took quite a while to get the bill.

Amazing staff, lovely atmosphere and excellent food. We really enjoyed every minute

Our go to restaurant. The best fillet steak in Windsor!

Great steak in a local cosy atmosphere. Try the cocktails.
