The clue is in the name....and for the juiciest, most flavorsome steaks around, no matter how you take it, it's hard to beat a Josper-cooked steak! The secret is our Josper grill, a very particular style of Spanish charcoal oven, which is regarded by chefs worldwide as the finest method of cooking super tender steaks, while locking in all those wonderful flavors. So whether it's Sirloin or Rib Eye you prefer, the unique smoky, barbecue-style taste of our locally sourced, prime aged steaks is, we believe, out of this world! If, however, steaks are not your thing, then fear not, as we also offer a wide-ranging & amp; varied menu and quick & easy Light Lunch menu.

Very friendly and attentive staff, lovely background music, beautifully decorated and a lovely choice of food which was absolutely delicious. I had the gyozas to start then a main of sizzling duck and my boyfriend had the Godzilla sushi to start and the hot stone chicken with garlic butter as a main. We both recommend and will definitely be back.

I had a starter portion of the bang bang chicken for my main with a side order of chips. I don’t need a huge amount of food, It was delicious, have had it before. Seemed very popular. Didn’t have room for desert ! Staff very polite, they always are. There was a rather loud party of girls and guys there when I booked. 5.45 pm but that was ok. Very busy and good service. Would highly recommend.
