If there is anywhere in London where you could guarantee a good meat meal it should be Smithfield. The Bar & Grill actually looks out onto the main market area so carnivores can approach with confidence!

Bar and Grill Smithfield really does look great, with an attractive black & white interior split between a lively bar & ambient restaurant. Then there´s the matter of the food. An all-pleasing menu covers anything from oysters to pizza but is dominated by an off-the-grill section where you can pick from a wide range of protein, including ostrich, tuna, vegetable skewers & several types of beef.

The star dish has to be Kobe Beef which is available as a fillet, rump or sirloin cut. This style of beef - from the wagu breed - comes from Japan and they import it themselves. Frankly this beef will blow your head off - the best you will ever taste! The Kobe is very expensive but worth every penny. The cattle are fed on a diet of grain and beer (yes beer!). Being very high in protein, this puts a lot of fat on the animal, the marbling is very pronounced and as it is cooked it is constantly basting itself giving an phenomenal, intense flavour.

Chef´s Speciality Dish:

9oz Kobe Beef Fillet Steak - what else!
