Best steak I ever had was a 700 gram Chateaubriand to share. Something about the larger ones cooked as one piece is just better

Yep for what it was it was steep. In saying that, the individual steaks that were going by seemed better stocked.

think the ribeye was 38e,  they offered us the tomahawk but we have had a tomahawk previusly elsewhere  and while cooked perfectly and looked great it tasted of nothing

We were there last night. Didn’t have a starter as we were getting the Tomahawk. Its €95 per kg and ours weighed in at 1.050 kg. I really enjoyed the steak but as a Tomahawk for 2 the plate was a bit light. It was accompanied by 1 corn on the cob, 1 tomato and two pepper halves. We ordered a side of fries which was tiny also, think a MCDs Happy Meal portion of fries. 

Had a pint of Guinness which was spot on and then had an “old fashioned” cocktail which is a whiskey based and was a head blower, no shortage of whiskey in it.

Dessert was top notch, went for the Italian lemon cake basically, cant recall the fancy name.

All in it was €152 before tip for a pint, two cocktails, bottle of water, the Tomohawk and side and the two desserts.
