I'd vote for both MJ's and Ruth's Chris. Very different, but like them both.

Re: Steakhouses
 

MJ's is good and I have always had a nice steak at the Rib Room at Emirates Towers (and the Rib Room have a special coeliac menu so it gets extra points from me for that).

In Abu Dhabi, you cannot beat Le Beaujolais at the Novotel - great steak and chips and fab prices. For a splurge, Rodeo Grill is excellent but eye wateringly expensive.

Re: Steakhouses
 

The Rib Room went down hill after a succession of chefs coming and going. It has just reopened after a refurbishment and they have a new head chef , Anna used to be the head chef at MJ's so it is going to be back on form :-)
The Agency has also moved to what used to be the ribroom bar next door.

Re: Steakhouses
 

I had a great steak at the Dhow and Anchor a few weeks back, couldn't complain :thumbup:

Re: Steakhouses
 

Is this some kind of chef name dropping contest?

If you go to the Butcher's Grill in JBR and tell the head cook, Antonetta, that I sent you I can guarantee you a portion of cold chips and a wrong order. She always ensures the same for me.

Re: Steakhouses
 

Where is that then? Incidentally, how much do you guys pay for a steak meal without beverages?

Re: Steakhouses
 

In AD would agree with Rodeo grill, excellent meat. Frankie's / MPW @ fairmont also very good. For somewhere a little less expensive the steak place in One-to-One hotel is pretty reliable too.

In Dubai, Asado @ Palace Old Town hasn't had a mention and is excellent. Palermo at AR Polo Club does a steak night Monday and Tuesday AED 119 including a glass of wine, good Argentine steak.

Re: Steakhouses
 

it's in the Jumeirah Beach Hotel, not sure how much the total bill was but the steak was either 145 or 185

Re: Steakhouses
 

Too much , i think it's robbery in all of them , some of them are charging AED 250 just for a slab of beef and up to AED700 for Wagyu Beef.

You could get real Beef curtains for that money...

Re: Steakhouses
 

I believe there is a nice Argentinian steak restaurant at the Palace Hotel overlooking Burj Khalifa. Has anyone been?

Re: Steakhouses
 

my husband went, he said it was absolutely superb :)

Re: Steakhouses
 

Rare @ The Desert Palm Hotel that's very good as well , i think it bagged best steahouse in Dubai last year , lovely hotel as well , just a pity about it's location.

Re: Steakhouses
 

Yep, it's ok, service patchy though...

Re: Steakhouses
