Great food. Even better service. A fun and dynamic atmosphere. These are the reasons why, every time we’re in London (we live in California), we visit Bife Grill.

Excellent food, very good service, friendly staff and casual ambience, albeit rather crowded and loud. I would certainly recommend it and am looking forward to going again.

Three of us dined here for dinner midweek. Cosy and lively atmosphere and super friendly staff as soon as we entered. Ordered the beef box for 3 which was excellent portion size. Beef had lots of flavour - the sirloin was a thinner cut so ended up slightly overcooked as the meat keeps cooking on the ‘box’. The other cuts were excellent - rump, skirt. Chorizo was juicy and tasty. Fantastic place and all staff super friendly. Highly recommend!
