Zelman Meats Harvey Nichols in Kensington and Chelsea

Second visit after six months. What a disappointment. The first visit we enjoyed and it prompted us to come again. Again one of us ordered the cod. It can only be described as being like rubber. Appreciate that this is a red meat specialist, but if you are going to offer fish on the menu, it’s reasonable to expect it to be cooked properly. I am sure it would have bounced if we tried. Totally inedible. They agreed to replace it with a burger which was fine. However the triple fried chips were not all cooked properly. The regularly shaped chips were okay, but the thicker ones were not cooked through, and inedible. Service was good. Overall disappointed though and not sure we will be back.

Although the name sounds like a high street meat supermarket it was actually an amazing restaurant on the top floor of Harvey Nicholls! The steak was cooked just right & even had little drips of blood flowing out. Also had delicious Sundae dessert! Service - and banter - was great too! It was good to treat myself and try somewhere different for a great day out!

Spent over £280 on one course for 4 people. For that amount of money I expect better food, drink and environment. After all it's in a shop. Food was good.

At Zelman Meats, it’s not just the top-notch meat that draws you in but also the exceptional service, especially from the manager, Jonathan. His attention to detail, warm hospitality, and spot-on recommendations elevate the dining experience. Jonathan’s passion for his work and genuine kindness make every visit memorable, ensuring guests leave with a smile. His efforts transform a meal into a delightful experience, making you return not just for the exquisite steaks but for the welcoming atmosphere he creates. Zelman Meats stands out not only for its culinary excellence but also for the unique touch Jonathan brings to every interaction.

Went on a Sunday, arrived 20minutes earlier than reservation time but seated immediately. Waitress Deborah served us, very polite and attentive and helpful. Ordered the ZELMAN plate for 4 with 4sides , a Wagyu burger, Caesar salad and drinks. All meat was done as requested and perfect temperature. Sides were good, I loved the sweet potato the most . Overall, lovely lunch in a relaxed and nice atmosphere with music at the right volume and not blaring to drown out conversations.Also, had the staff bring out a lovely birthday dessert for one of our guests which was lovely . Would definitely come back

Shocking and disgusting is beyond a joke. Turned up and the manager Jonathan is there picking his nose at the front desk. Then go to order and the food is then served cold then returned and food not cooked correctly and then brought a third time and for which the manager was rude and threatens to call security because he didn’t listen to the order correctly and we were not happy. Definitely not coming back again not the first time where steak is not cooked correctly as requested

Very underwhelming experience and will be my first and last visit. Considering it’s a brand focussing on meat, we ordered the Zelman Plate (£56 a head). We ordered medium / rare and every piece of meat was cooked differently. The meat quality wasn’t good and lots of fatty sinew. Lots of other steakhouses in london I’d recommend

I went to Zelmans meats at Harvey Nicols because I heard great reviews of the place-being completely halaal in this area of London-BONUS.I was greeted warmly by the hostess who led me to my table and was left to decide on my choice.I ordered a Sirlon medium well done and unfortunately it doesnt come with any sides so I ordered fries. I was delightfully surprised when my steak came and it was exactly as I asked.I tried the chimichurri sauce with it even though I asked the waiter for the pepper sauce-she brought both.Needless to say whe the bill came I was shocked!I ate Ribeye even though I specifically asked for Sirloin and whats more the price was 49pounds vs 32 pounds.They also charged me for 2 sauces even though I asked for 1 sauce.I enjoyed the steak BUT I do not appreciate my wishes being overridden when ordering.When I queried this the manager said it would have been chewy if I took the Sirloin.It was my choice!Anyway the food was good but make sure they give you what YOU order not what they think you should have!

This was a treat for me and my wife ( it was Father’s Day). Our first time to have a meal at this building and in this area. A superb experience, never to be forgotten

We are regulars at Zelmans and it is an oustanding steak house for Halal meat. I have to express my appreciation to Sandra today who amazing and gave us a wonderful service. Thank you so much Sandra

Visited Zelman meats with my mother after months of planning as we were excited to try some higher end halal steak in London. Turned out to be an awful experience. I got food poisoning which took over a week to recover from. I made contact with them and was put through to the quality control manager who insisted he had conducted a full investigation. Despite informing me that they are taking my report seriously, they were more concerned about saving face than reassuring me and prioritising my emails. It has been almost over 3 weeks since my last email, where I responded to their inconsiderate need to disregard my experience. After a terrible experience, all I asked was for a refund which I’m sure they can surely afford in severe circumstances such as this. It was an absolutely traumatising experience and I would never write a negative review under ordinary circumstances, but after having tried to make contact with them directly to agree to a mutual resolution and being ignored, they have left me with no choice.

This is a good place in Knightsbridge for halal steak. The service was friendly and the prices very good for the area. I would recommend the tempura prawn, heritage carrots, burger and obviously the steaks! The negatives were that the pepper sauce was too creamy/thick for my guests liking and my latte wasn't that hot. Apart from that I would return again.

Excellent service and great value for money! We were greeted with great hospitality and found ourselves learning a great deal about each steak particularly the specials. We went with the recommendations of the porter house and were really happy with it! Great service came to check on us and everything was on time and was clear the staff try to go that extra mile to make sure you enjoy! Great to celebrate occasions & will be returning!

Took my wife out for her birthday at Zellman’s in Knightsbridge on a cold January Saturday evening. Having eaten at top steakhouses across the globe, I was very impressed with the quality of food at Zellmans. My wife and I both ordered the dry-aged porterhouse steaks. Given the aging process, the meat was perfectly tender with the right level of “funky” flavour. The sauces were great but were not necessary given the taste and texture of the steak. Furthermore, I was impressed with pricing which presented a relatively good value. Similar steaks elsewhere in London could cost as much as double. Finally, service was top notch and what you would expect from such an establishment. I look forward to dining again at Zellmans.

We were very disappointed in our experience there, we've ordered a shared plate of meat (The zelman plate) for 2 persons. 1st of all the quantity was very poor regarding to the price (42.5£/p) , 2nd we specified that we want the meat medium well, after nearly 30 min of wait they brought half of the meat well done to dry as shown in the picture. Nice mood inside the place, but for someone who really care for his -and i quote- "ANIMAL INSTINCT", the restaurant is overrated.

Went today . Best service ever received. Excellent and attentive professional waiters. Manager came talked to us. Very pleasant and very friendly. Never had such good service not even in Dubai at Nusret. Delicious food . 20 out of 10. Had the Zelman plate to try each steak from menu . Bargain at 42.50 each . Beautiful side dishes and amazing alcohol free Tiramisu. Massive yummy creamy slice . Going to get brownie and ice cream next time . Thanks Zelman meats. You have restored my faith in top class cuisine and service . Will be back many times more and very soon.

Finally came and tried the food here and I was left very disappointed. The ribeye which is our fave cut of meat (ordered medium rare) was so poor, barely any flavour. Wasn’t impressed at all should’ve dined elsewhere in Knightsbridge

Thank you Leonela for her wonderful service. This is a family friendly restaurant which accommodated our specific dietary requirements which was great. The mocktails were great The starters we had the prawn tempura and the lobster croquettes. The prawns were way better in my opinion The wagyu burger was delicious and we also shared the Zelman sharing plate of different cuts which was delicious especially with the chimichurri sauce. The BBQ ribs were a delight. We finished off with the desserts which were good Great place for lunch or dinner and best of all it’s Halal

We went there for my birthday with my husband as I love meat. We're really looking forward to it but once arrived meat didn't have any "meat" taste is as if it has be freeze for 10 years. The service people were nice but couldn't finish our plates (we had a shared one with 4 type of meats). The price was also very high which doesn't bother me of it's good but really I think it's the worst food experience that I had in my life in a restaurant.

Surprisingly great meal. I have a very, very high bar for steakhouses and was pleasantly surprised. Most of the great steakhouses obviously have a great steak, so they can only differentiate themselves with the other dishes. That said, if a steakhouse can’t get the temperature...

The restaurant is located on the fifth floor of Harvey Nichols, amongst several outer restaurants. This place had a good ambience, along with a decent menu offering halal dining options. I tried the wagyu burger which was moist, tender and flavoursome; however portion sizes could...

It was a disgusting experience when it came to (lack of) customer service, professionalism and having any code of good behaviour. There was no service, staff was there as if to fill in a gap on behalf of someone and i could feel they hated...

£200 for 3 people is steep for the majority of people, me included. But every now and then you want to treat yourself. This meal was very very average. The meat was fine. Aldi quality, I've cooked steak as well. Ribs were fine. Quite dry,...

Service - simply superb Food - exquisite Delicious mocktail Recommend sea bass and wagyu burger. We will return The Branch we went to is on the top floor of Harvey Nichols

The meals did not meet our expectations. The steak and salad taste average and the waiter was impolite.

Amazing food especially the prawn starter & the steaks. Super friendly staff especially Mimi who was extremely kind and professional

Food was perfect and our server was enthusiastic and friendly. Looked like he was working twice as hard as anyone else to make sure his customers enjoyed themselves. Think he was called Christian (looking at receipt)

If TripAdvisor had a Good Rating, that’s what I would have rated it, but Very Good just felt too generous. I was in the mood for a steak and this place was listed in Time Out magazine as one of the 10 best steak houses...

Both food and service was great which we thoroughly enjoyed it. If you go there definitely go for the Tiger Prawn Tempura, (could do with one extra prawn) and The Zelman Plate for the mains. The food was amazing, juicy and tasteful. It was a...

The steaks and chips were excellent, we ordered a fillet and three striploins, however after a minor misunderstanding with the food, George Collyer was very apologetic and provided us with complimentary appetisers and a free glass of wine. The atmosphere was warm and the staff...

Absolutely exquisite steak and sides. Service was also excellent and friendly. It was a nice change going to a restaurant within a department store vs standalone.

We visited for dinner and were rather dissatisfied with the service and meal overall. The staff managed to get our drinks wrong on 4 separate occasions : We ordered G&T with no ice , simple right? We got G&T with ICE, then just an empty...

We visited this place on a Friday night as we celebrated an anniversary weekend in London. The service and food was exemplary. The steak was just so perfectly cooked I was speechless. My only gripe was that the music was really loud and spoilt the...

Outstanding service from start to end! special thanks to Ana who looked after us every step of the way.

Decided to visit for a birthday treat. Booked a week in advance to avoid any disappointment. Had a call in the morning to ensure I was still arriving for my booking which was fair enough for them to check bookings. Upon arrival we was greeted...

Fantastic food! Attentive and friendly staff!! Even gave me a free tiramisu with a candle in for my birthday! Not the cheapest but absolutely worth it!

Service and food was amazing. Christian was marvellous serving the table! Totally recommend, best place to spend my Sunday!

The lady at the front of house, was probably the most rude and obnoxious person I have ever met at a restaurant. It took her at least 3 minutes to acknowledge I was stood waiting to be greeted and served, cause she was to busy...

The first thing about this restaurant - the staff are incredible. So friendly, welcoming, professional and kind. They literally make the restaurant as wonderful as it is. The food is wonderful. It took some time to arrive but tasted amazing and the quality is brilliant....

I had a lovely lunch with my partner on Sunday. The staff were so nice and are a credit to the business. We had the zelman plate to share which was delicious! I especially loved the rib eye. The chimichurri sauce is a must have....

The Food 350 gr Sirloin Steak Perfectly cooked and tasty Wagyu Burger Good portion and the beef was cooked perfectly. They add some fried onions as topping which is different. The service 5 star service, super friendly and attentive The location Easy to find. 5th...

Pre Xmas lunch with my best oldest daughter. Covid safe in our experience - lively service and quite lovely food. The Burrata was perfect / the wagyu burger one of the nicest for a long time / carrots and the crispy cabbage dish were great....

We had a beautiful lunch at Zelmans. We went for the lobster croquettes they were so rich but ever so yummy. I would go for them again but to share. We shared a steak I think it was the ribeye from Australia, truffle chips and...

I knew I was in for a treat once I tasted the ‘Tiger Prawn Tempura’. A juicy large prawn curled inside a delicate crispy batter. Ordered alongside ‘Lobster Croquettes’, the starters were one of the best I’ve had. The only downside was I wanted more....

On settling down; we ordered largely the same meal but I ordered a starter; the Lobster Croquettes, before their signature Wagyu Burger with chips. Lobster Croquettes: presentation-wise, the were faultless. The breadcrumbed balls were nuggets containing a cheese and lobster sauce - and these in...

Amazing food and service!! While shopping at Harvey Nichols, I decided to check out Zelman Meats for lunch. I was seated right away and server was friendly and attentive the entire visit. Nothing makes me happier than amazing customer service. I ordered the Wagyu burger,...

Oh my goodness where do I begin?! This restaurant is just sublime. We had a table booked for 7.30pm on a Saturday evening and it was our wedding anniversary meal. I don't really know what to say except that it was absolutely amazing!!! The best...

it's been a while since we had an outstandingly cooked, naked prime cut steak. In fact, the last time our mane was made to stand on end was the wagyu steak had at Chai Wu in Harrods at an unsurprisingly eyewatering £90. In terms of taste and quality, Zelman Meats' are...

Came here on Saturday evening with friends.. Even though it was a very busy time and we were half an hour late due to traffic the restaurant accommodated us. Food was amazing always and halal (they cook the haram and halal food on separate parts...

Very good meat we came especially and enjoyed We took the plate with a bit of all kinds of meat. Yummi. Good service Its on the fifth floor and a-lot to see around

Amazing place - cozy and friendly. Superior meal and lovely service. We will definitely come back !!

I went last night with 5 friends. Usually we go to the store in Soho which is always excellent - not ashamed to say we have been many times for many years. Last night was somewhat of an anomaly in my zelman eating experiences. Starters...

We went to Zelman Meats (5th Floor at Harvey Nichols), Knightsbridge to celebrate my friend’s belated birthday. Our order- Flower Martini, a glass of Puglian red, Wagyu burger w/ truffle chips, Australian ribeye steak (350g), a side of truffle chips and the Sriracha mayo and...

We ordered the option where you get 400g per person of 4 cuts of steak. I ordered it medium rare and it was divine! Although some parts of the steak were rare it didn’t bother me. The steak melted in my mouth. I really enjoyed...

Small friendly restaurant inside Harvey Nichols on the 5th floor. The menu is small but very well put together, the staff are knowledgeable and friendly. The beef is out of this world.

What a place, what a plate of meats. The food here is really great for those who like their meat juicy and tender.excellent place !

Came here with the extended family for a celebration dinner. The steaks are unreal, they have both wagyu and normal cuts both are delectable with the wagyu Picanha edging the normal; the wagyu ribeye however is in a league of its own. One of the...

Place is pricey, high tag but food is yummy, good portion size, good combo of various cusines and west foods

The have very nice Japanese wagyu meat. The service was excellent and the price is good comparing to other stack house And you have to try the truffle fries

The quality of meat is incredible (same owner of Goodman) but the price very competitive. Very good service and definitely to try if you want a good steak for reasonable price. The waiters will give you the best advise when it comes to choose among...

Great time,food was fantastic. We defently come again. Service was excellent. Best steakhouse in London!!

Fab lunch, recommend the oysters, lovely service! We had a few starters, the chips, oysters and a bottle of prosecco for lunch. The guys in there made us feel very welcome, I will be going again!

Delicious food, we only came for a light snack but ended up staying ages, brilliant service. Would highly recommend.

We with friends been there for second time now. We were pleased that at entrance smiley face met us (yes, this is very common in hospitality, but you should appreciate it in rush hour). It was busy both times we were there, but they managed...

The meats are not Grass Fed and they don't seem to know where its from which is disappointing. The meats are halal and we opted for beef Burger with Beef bacon and Strip loin well done. I am not to greatly impressed by the effort...

These guys have the best burger on earth. Funnily, it’s not on the menu. You have to order the “Grubby Burger” in clandestine fashion and ask for additional “special” sauce on the side. But, please, don’t tell anyone.

I only go to the branch in Harvey Nicols because they serve halal meat. I was out shopping and decided to treat myself to lunch and obviously I headed to Zelman Meats. I ordered the crab cakes for starters they were ok but slightly salty...

As we both appreciate good quality steaks (preferably grass fed and humanely reared) I was keen to try this restaurant with my wife, having heard good things about it. So we ordered and in passing I asked that we would prefer to not have the...

My fiance and I really enjoyed our food here. The sirloin was made to a perfect medium on a charcoal grill, and sliced up ready for me to tuck in to. The accompanying garlic butter sauce was the perfect partner to the delicious steak, and...

We decided to try this out on the recommendation of a friend. The restaurant is located on the top floor of Harvey Nicolls. It’s not the biggest, or best-looking restaurant you will ever see – looks like a diner to be honest. The first thing...

Their burger never disappoints, one of the best in London in my opinion, and I am happy to see it back on the menu! The burger cut is thick and juicy, and their secret sauce is absolutely delicious when its combined with their pieces of...

I had steak and snow crab Yummmmmm I still crave it. The service was super friendly and helpful. The wagyu steak to die for and all of it was great. Halal too! I shared the 2 steaks with my friend so we could taste a...

I think my title explains it aptly. Great service, nice humble surroundings, but the meat... oh laaaaawd the meat is something else! Picanja and the Chilean Wagyu was to die for! My only mild regret is that they didn’t have a halal option for the...

The first day I went while visiting London, we ordered the Chilean Wagyu Ribeye, the Dirty Sirloin, Super Food Salad, aubergine, and triple cooked chips. I’m really not a steak person, but everything tasted amazing. The sirloin is cooked over charcoal and had a nice...

When you look at the Zelman menu it looks amazing and I had a hunger for the ribs and at £8 per 100g I figured that 200g of ribs would be a suitable addition to a starter and desert sweet potato & choc brownie). However...

Went during with a friend as I had heard good reviews. The reviews weren't wrong! Lovely ambience upstairs in Harvey Nichols with excellent service. Good selection of halal choices available. We shared a starter and dessert and had steaks for main course. I requested a...

We had high expectations of this steak restaurant after reading reviews. We reserved a table in adavance but the restaurant was not busy. The tempura tiger prawns were good. The 'dirty' sirloin had a large amount of fat attached to it (which was expected) but...

I happened to visit this restaurant when I was shopping in harrods and found out the restaurant, pizzeria, was already crowded. Due to request of my mom, I was searching for a steak house. Then I found this one. Completely amazed me with their high...

Great steaks and more... Wine, vegetables, fish, staff.. I've tested both rests in soho and knightbridge and was the same.. I suggest the black cod and wagyu. Staff very polite..especially Lucio the mgr in knightbridge. I hope to back soon.

Place to go if you love meat. Starters were amazing and sides makes the main even better. Best lunch I have had in a very, very long time.

The hamburger is just delicious, I also asked for a 1936 beer, which if I remember correctly is from Switzerland, which is very good, we had the salad, also good... very pleased with the food, flavors and quality of it all.

I was there recently overall has a nice vibe however service is somewhat inconsistent and little overpriced too. The restaurant was fairly empty as it was 30 degrees and practically everyone in London was out in the parks. There was is still delay in sitting...

Had a ribeye stack (600 g) as on menu was £45 but been charged £60 on the bill excluding %12 service charge

Everything I had was absolutely delicious. The steak was perfectly cooked and just amazing. I had the ribeye. The only problem was that it was so big I left with 3/4 of it in a box. The black truffle fries were so good. Despite the...

My fiance took me for a birthday meal and I must say apart from the excellent food (dirty steak and wagyu picanha steak), Lucio and all the staff were really attentive from start to finish, welcoming and added to the great vibe in the place....

I made an nearly evening pit-stop here, to do some shopping and have dinner at this place, I'd high hopes. There was a friendly welcome. I ordered picanha steak medium-rate [300gms £21], but to me it came out as rare. I hadn't time to start...

I just had 400g of medium well cooked picanha and it was absolutely delishious! Not only was the flavor excellent, but the fact that you order by 100 grams is great, it lets you get just what you want!

Absolutely loved the food here. The quality of the steak was phenomenal. It’s always hard to get good quality halal meat which is then cooked well and this was done to perfection. From the starter all the way to coffee- it was a very, very...

I was at a local embassy mid week, so planned to have lunch here. I arrived at 12:00 on the dot and was seated and had a great chat with one of the friendliest waiters ever. We discussed the halal options which consisted of various...

I want to start of by mentioning that the person who served us (went by the name Mauro) was such a brilliant waiter. This man must have been born with a smile, VERY polite, and had detailed knowledge about the several cuts of meat to...

The steak was amazing, the staff are so friendly and their recommendations are great! Location is great too. Food was excellent!

The meat and service was amazing. Highly recommended! This place is a hidden gem in Knightsbridge. The meat is all free range beef from Nebraska and so good. It also does halal meat. Meat/steak lovers need to try this place.

I visit Zelman at Knightsbridge on a regular base, about every other week, when I am in town on business. You could say that I am a very reliable source of information on this establishment due to the frequency of visits. For all the time,...

I was with my friend for the lunch at zelman meats in 5th floor of HarveyNichols. We tried a seletion of starters and we really love the cecina salad. As a main we ordered a brisket sandwich burger and picana. Everything was really nice and...

MUST TO GO!!!!!!! We have been in Zelman meats last night, We had a very good dinner and a great service too, we had Picanha and short rib - absolutely amazing, we will definitely come back. Thank you very much

I've dined in Zelmans a few times in the past and I have to say the service is always impeccable. The staff are always friendly and curteous and the food is always satisfying. I usually have the brisket and chips which are always a good...

Visited early evening on a Tuesday; not too busy - 5th floor Harvey Nichols. They have a number of halal options including picanha steak and fillet steak. These are sold by the gram with a minimum order of 200g. They have decent mocktails/mojitos (non-alcoholic). I...

Looked strange to see the place not full to the rim - probably because slightly cheaper Burger&Lobster from the same honourable stable is right nextdoor. Deserves more customers as service is excellent and steaks are fantastic - especially as they serve these cut up, makes...

We ate here in Kate January whilst in London for the night It was an unscheduled visit to London where we finished up in the 5th floor bar at Harvey Nichols for drinks The promise of New York style Goodman owned meats at Zelman sounded...

Decent steak place which offers a number of on the menu halal options of different types of steaks and cuts. We were in a group of 5 and whilst the waiter was knowledgeable the service left much to be desired. The steaks came with no...
