The Grill On New York Street

Have been visiting this restaurant on New Years Eve without a reservation as I wanted to have a good steak and it was top rated. I have tried their Blackhouse ribeye steak a try: very good and exactly at the requested cooking stage ( medium rare ). The cheesecake as desert was very tempting so I had to give it a try as well - it was very delicious. Staff has been very attentive and friendly. One star deduction as I consider 2.95 GBP additionally for a sauce too much - and the desert should rather be priced at 5-6 GBP. The other prices were just fine.

Great location, the restaurant itself is nicely decorated with a modern, relaxing yet classy vibe. I had been before around 4 years ago and I enjoyed it back then. Food is not cheap but it’s of high quality so it’s worth every penny. We had a 1.2kg tomahawk asked for medium rare, as you can see by the picture below it was cooked to perfection! It melted in the mouth and was seasoned perfectly, very impressed. Even better we saw the waiter take it from the meat fridge and pass it to the chef so we saw it from start to finish which made you see the quality. Staff were nice but nothing special, not too engaging which was a shame I think it would have been a better experience had we got a waiter with character as it adds to the evening. We were lucky enough to also have a 40% members discount so the whole bill came to £70 which at that price for the quality is an absolute steal! A bargain! Overall impressive food and an enjoyable evening, if it had a bit more personality it would have gotten 5.

What a lovely evening, extremely busy restaurant due to football being on in the City, night before mother's day and a large party group who we were told turned up 45minutes late. The management & staff dealt with the situation perfectly under extreme pressure they made us feel really welcome and the food is beautiful. I felt a little over dressed in a suit but I would definitely return a little more relaxed in future. One of the nicest meals I've experienced definitely in my top 10 places to eat in Manchester.
