- The MacMaster and The Blonde Angel are in Nottingham to review Son of Steak for a Steak. When our steak dinner came if was a little disappointing, however not all was bad, there were a few plusses and minuses. Take a look for yourself and let us know in the comments section how you would rate the steaks and the restaurant itself.

Minus several million for no proper plate alone! And I've not even got to you eating the food yet. Poncey slatey things and all these novelty food containers....have you seen the little supermarket trolleys for chips? Nonsense. 🛒🍟🤣
If can afford to eat out every day you've not really got much complain about in life surely not
My food bill every week for fresh fruit and vegetables plus some cheap cuts of meat is around £30. Thats why we never eat out in the UK. Utter pisstake price just cos people can't be bothered to find the good stuff and have a bash at cooking it.
No way was that steak a Rib eye...small portion chips...dry coleslaw from Lidl...gristle steak looked on the tough side...if they are running out of ingredients then the venue is poorly managed....overpriced rubbish...thanks I will never go there
You literally had a flat iron steak, and you're moaning that it was too flat? Mental that
Both Son of Steak and Miller & Carter are owned by Mitchells & Butlers
Another good video. First I'm with you 100% on the plates. Never mind the fancy, give my a plain white plate every time, let the food be the star? No lettuce, gherkins and run out of chips, in the words of a well known star, I DON'T BELIEVE IT! I would rate it a six but as it has been mentioned below it's the quality of the basic ingredient (steak) is sometimes beyond the restaurants control but they must know how to cook to order. It is surprising how many times medium is different. Keep up the good work!
You can't beat fillet steak having no teeth i can gum it to death 😂
I think a lot of the problems with steak is not the restaurants fault. Its more to do with the way beef is reared these days. Gone are the days where these animals get fed by mum and move onto grass for their life. The biggest part of these are reared in enclosures with no access to grass. Fed corn, soya and anything unnatural. They lack exercise that builds muscle and so it goes on. Some are on growth promoters and antibiotics and equally bad stuff. Also since BSE they are slaughtered young. All of this accounts to little flavour. If you can find a piece of grass reared which has been hung correctly it costs a fortune. All this to produce cheap beef to the masses at the expense of flavour.
First of all I agree with the point you made about " hung correctly ". That being said there is absolutely nothing " unnatural " regarding corn and soya. The process here is to raise the beef on the range then pen them in feedlots. The food is natural wheat and no, they do not have the ability to exercise. Aging beef should be dry aged no less that thirty days, preferably longer.
Vacuum packaged beef that the majority of the steakhouses use, it's impossible to tell how much age is on the beef when it's received. I'm sure you will agree they can put anything on a label. You mention problems with steak is not the restaurants fault ,,,, really ,,, so what are you suggesting ? that we pay ridiculous amounts of money for a steak and if it's tough and flavourless too bad ??
On the contrary sir, serve me a high price cut of beef that is chewy and flavourless and it will go right back ,, I've done that a number of times ,, I simply want what I'm paying for. Have a nice day sir.
Some good points here but can I add that the use of soya is a huge problem from climate point of view as most is grown from land from cut down rain forest. Thats the reason that soya is a problem. The age the animal is slaughtered makes a huge difference. Good cattle need time to mature slowly. I think we all enjoy a good steak.
WTFish,run out of lettuce, it's not rocket science 😂😂. I know it was early,but the thin on the ground customer's should have given you a hint.Steak'n'chips is a basic. That should be within most chefs range. The supply chain,being able to source the steak can help,its not about the cost but how well it was reared.Some time it's just a bad cut of meat.😢😢Now with all that said was great to see Angie, and sorry to hear that Nick was under par. Please pass on my best via his mum&wish him well❤ and in the words of the Batman Show: same vlog time,same vlog channel. 'Til the morrow.Cheers 20:58
Apparently I can't make a comment??
@Robert Smith I’m not sure where you stay? But the majority of cattle in the UK are in fields and thankfully not like other countries that have those awful feedlots. The beef that restaurant is using may be imported from abroad.
Hate slates & skin on fries. Skin on fries means they couldn’t be bothered to peel the spuds properly 😂
You sure can clear a plate of food you’re not enjoying!
😂
@@samgreig727 Ooow someone got out of the wrong side of bed!
You're still watching though, so he's doing something right.
Full of CR@p steak. ;)
@@TheMacMaster Better than wasting it, and your money!
If James harriet was on hand he could have revived that steak like mine cremated , nice to see blond angel lighting the screen up 🙅♂️
Great video, and yep does my head in when I get served a slate, as top chefs say if you need a fancy slate to showcase your food then you're normally in trouble. Just give us a decent plate! Whether its fancy or not! Sure there is an article online somewhere about the top chefs very much against it
I went there once never again and it looks like they still don't know how to cook a steak
I'll give the waitress who walked by around 9:00 a 10!. The "plates" were bonkers stupid. I'd have sent Blond Angels's steak back as soon as she cut into it.
I like my steaks blue. I can't get blue here in the US so rare is my only option. If you have to put a sauce on a steak, it's pants. That place reminded me of a chain over here called Chilis. same sort of decor and lighting but Chillis for two doesn't cost 56 quid.
I'd have rated that place a 5.
Find it hard to believe how they cant make the time to take a tenner to the shop for some lettuce and gherkins 😅
"Out of" a signature steak, lettuce and gherkins in the middle of the day? Nevertheless, happy to "teach" you about the food they are offering you at inflated prices. Beyond absurd.
Good evening Angie and Lee. What can i say about this Establishment. Lovely Steaks, Chips pretty Good, i do not like Fillers on a meal. What are they trying to hide. In this modern day and age, a Restaurant still must use plates and full cutlery. Again, when you get really Customer Service with a Smile and Respect for the Customer that makes the meal enjoyable, and a very Good Relaxing Ambience in the Restaurant. Yes, very well priced for what you had. Another Great Production Lee and Angie. Take Great Care of Yourselves. 😃😃😃😃❤❤💯💯💯💯💯👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
ah so nice to see the cute girl again was getting sick of Lee's face 😂😂😂❤
6.5 for me. Steak looked fatty, I can't stand dry coleslaw (although probably healthy). They weren't plate fillers Lee, they were slate fillers!! Boom boom. Always worry about hygiene when eating off wooden boards. Same for slate. Nice to see the blond Angel again.
You were told to look up by walk on the wild side
I was. Stephen is a legend. :0) Hope to Collab again soon with him.
Totally agree about plates. Drives me mad when your food is on a wood block, slate etc Great to see Ange, love your banter together.
Why, though?! I think they look pretty damn smart!!!
You guys are fantastic and amazing. It is not just about the culinary experience but your wit is absolutely hilarious and cheers me up each time. You guys just rock.
Welcome back Blond Angel!
The restaurant manager should have sent his help to the local grocery store and get the missing lettuce, potatoes and whatever.
Incompetent is what I'd say here
Pretentious overpriced “I’ll give it a 5”
You are dam right - pop to local shop you can loads of salad and chips for £10!
13:11 Looked like a respectable amount of chips to me 🤷🏼♂️
Hi Angie 😊 lovely to see you again 😘
That’s not rib eye
"how few* chips there are." 😮😢😂
Hiya Blonde Angel, lovely to see you. Leave Lee behind, lovely seeing you. Hope your son is OK. x
Ange should accompany you to Benidorm one of these days..
steaks looks perfect
Lee, I know you like a plate but you did wipe the slate clean. 😂😅
Do slates stay warmer than plates?? Stake looked grisly score 5 nothing wrong with being a bit chubby more to hold on too 😊
Sheets of slate are being sold as heat protection for tabletops against hot skillets and such so noooo.... 😮
Pretty sure that wasn't a rib eye... Far too expensive for what you got on your (slate 😡) Alarm bells ring when an empty restaurant runs out of gherkins, chips and lettuce ! 🤣
3/10
I'll stick with Spoons lol.
Big Millar n Carter fan but in Glasgow place called Butchers Block is really amazing!!
Heinz is an AMERICAN company... jj Heinz.. anyway colemans company is from Norfolk... and hp brown sauce is now made in Netherlands
Hmmm, as a butcher I’m pretty sure that your steak was a rump rather than a ribeye by the look of it Lee!😬
Also totally agree, plate NOT slate!
I’d score it a 7 at most!
Grand job as usual!👍👏👏👏❤️
“Not an awful lot of chips”!!? 😂
Mustard on steak! 😮 never seen that before and I hope I never see it again 😂😉
Not for me .. that slate put me right off😝.. very expensive too. It’s a 4.5.
We used to have steak and chips at the Silver Grill or was it the Roman Grill in Bromsgrove. We could afford it on our wages from working after school two evenings and all day Saturday.
But that was in the 70's.....three course meal at lunchtime weekdays for 70p!
The onion loaf at miller and carter is really nice I take the mrs every month for our date night
She is back! We love Ange.
random, you guys use cutlery, in Northern Ireland we just eat it out of our hands
Went here for my birthday a few years ago and was very disappointed. I don't know anyone in Nottingham who has been back after their first time.
First of all, it is ok to say 'waiter' and 'waitress' and I will always refer to them as such. Also, whoever voiced any disappointment when anywhere has run out of lettuce ... no-one ever! Ha!
It was nice to see Angie again, Lee, and visiting Nottingham again. I've never heard of this place, the American terminology does my head in on the menu's though ... 'slaw' ffs! ... I prefer my English to be English, thankyou. For me, the steaks looked lovely, juicy and moist, just like your meat should be, but that's where it ended really as the steak didn't look that tender by how you were cutting it. The chips looked ok, but the slates on chopping boards are VERY off putting for me, (I want my food on a plate) and with the plate fillers also. I wouldn't bother with this place personally, and as you said "it's certainly no Miller and Carter". Nice video though.
So glad to see the two of you together again. Hope Nick will have a full recovery. Keep up the wonderful vlogs.
Love to see you back Angie ☺️
Tried fish and chips at the ivy York and have to say it was terrible. Shouldn't of expected it to be good in a pretentious chain restaurant
The one you had in that posh steakhouse in the US was a T-bone not a ribeye
Nice to see Ange again Lee, the food looked ok to me but obviously I wasnt eating it, weren`t the Pompous Slates in session for John Peel in the 80s 😆
Lol. John Peel legend.
What a joy to see the Blonde Angel again! The video takes on a different character when she’s involved. Happy, Happy, Happy We!
Myoglobin & Water is the liquid - that didn’t look too bad to me. Fillet rare is my favourite especially Chateaubriand or Fillet Rossini in a decent Italian. 7/10 on looks alone.
So lovely to see you two back and Ange I could give you the biggest hugs, bless ya, such a lovely person, we need more Ange's in the world.
Bit of a coincidence that you mentioned the Flatiron Building in New York and then on the restaurant menu, there was flat iron steaks. The food looked pretty good but it looked like they were trying to be something that they’re not.
"Nice One Guys"👍.Watching At 01.30 (Ater a late shift) Would Eat That Now 🤣
I would rate that meal a 4, didn't look all that appetizing to me.
These are timeless. Cyprus was a no no , Morecambe Bay was a no no......please show us some positives
Welcome back Blond Angel honey, Sorry to hear Nick has not been doing well, fingers crossed for the future my friend... All the very best to you both and yours, Chris
Hi guys great to see Ang back hope your all well n hope Nick is feeling better 🙏 have a fab holiday Ang well deserved 😊 love to ya all 😊💜
I like a bit of pink meat 😉 not a fan of fancy slate trays though.
Ain’t nothing worse than eating your tea that’s been served to you on a manky roof tile.
Lee it’s nice to see you’ve reunited with the blonde angel, I bet you are both looking forward to your steak, sorry Lee looks nice served on a bit of slate whats wrong with plates, another place that gives you plate or should I say slate fillers. I think these places are over priced for average food. Definitely not worth the money in my eyes, I’d give it 6/10 sorry mate very disappointing. Another great vlog and nice that Angies back with you on your videos. 👍🏴
Would like your opinion - which is better - round plates or square plates - which is more posh? Also how do UK steakhouses compare with American steakhouses? Sounds likes an idea for a future youtube video -)
I prefer a plate and the sauce pot needs filling instead of half full lol steaks weren't rested early enough before serving so kept cooking with the hear during resting. For me it's a 4 out of 10
Great to see you and the BA back in action ! Lovely work me duck !
Ooo I love a steak 🥩
Bit over cooked though 😕 should of sent it back x
"How did you find the steak sir?"..Well, I just ate my five chips and there it was!"
I'd have probably gone for the T-bone steak. But if its that bad you've saved me the £30.95 😁
Our Ange is back on the Vlog.. Happy day's ❤
Both looked really good. Definitely think Annie's looked well done almost. I green on the plate thing also. Would give it a 7. I like a rare steak me, sometimes rare depending 😋
haha using welsh slate for a plate great idea. i hope they wash them properly afterwards
Best steak I had for in Gran canaria
Wasn't keen on the look of it Lee ❤😊💎xx
Nice to get back with the Blonde Angel....🙂🙂 Good steak and enjoy
I had the best steak of my life last week Lee. I went to " Upstairs at the Grill " in Chester and had New York strip with thrice cooked chips and freshly made bernaise sauce. 😋
I had a meal at a restaurant the other day, and it was annoying because it was on the ceiling and I could not get to it the steaks were to high!
Your face said a solid 5 or 6 so definitely juicy lucy the score there! Awesome fun video review as always!
Mister Macmaster & Ange terrific to see ya back on the vlogs...what is all this bloody pretentious business with food..🤔🤔🤔🤔 no plate..🤔things called 'slaw' 🤔bloody Americanisms like 'supa excited' 😛 chips in a tin😅 world has gone totally bonkers & to add to it all the cost for what you actually got for your money 😮😮anyway Ange we all don't wanna see 'stick insect' ladies your alright as you are...😊❤ 3/10 for the food on offer 10/10 for the vlog 🎉💯👍
You ordered fish and chips in the Ivy 🙄😂😂
I don’t like the look of either meal tbh and blonde angel your beautiful as you are hope you have a fantastic time in turkey u deserve the break thanks for sharing Lee my score 2out of 10 I like color not just everything brown 😊
My gran taught me the beef dripping sandwiches, was amazing 😂
Ange was the best part of the vlog for me today, Lee 😃
My tastebuds where tingling every time Tamatanga came in shot through the window, best curry in Nottingham 😋
In Gdansk mate just watched the video as I’m sitting with the wife outside in river bank another cracking clip keep up the great work oh you should try Gdansk it’s stunning and tons of places to eat 👍🍺
Looked very posh 😋 I'd probably end up going for a few pints of Abbott's in the Wetherspoon's after lol
where I live the mustard is usually heinz english mustard 🤮so nice to see colmans as a condiment always take my squeezy tube of colmans if I plan to have a steak out.
Angie's steak looked ok Lee yours looked very disapointing time scale 16mins in.
Btw jack and jill is pill not bill!
How can you forget where Frankie & Benny is? Theres one at EMA, where they wanted to seat you at the back of the restaurant. 😂😂😂😂
LOL I tried to forget that. :0)
Yes , you're both right guys as Lettuce 🥬 on a burger 🍔 and Mayo just makes it bloody delicious 😋 tasting Amazing Lee and Ange !!! How is Ange's Son Nick doing as I'm Only 6.36 / 25.43 mins of your Vlog Lee , She's Such a Lovely 🥰 Lady and it's nice to see her back with you again Xx
Welcome back to Ange😊. Please go and visit "nood lee" next😂
Slate “plates” are so 2017 !!!, I had to laugh when you plonked a big pile of chips out, and said there weren’t many chips !!!. Pretty expensive as well, you could get a better steak with all the fixings for half that price, in a local RSL club , here in Australia. Thought of you yesterday, out shopping, the fishmonger in the shopping centre does hot food, it’s pretty good, you can get battered fish, chips and salad for the Sterling equivalent of 5 quid …..😊
Nice to see Angie back . I've got a couple of old boots 🥾 Lee. Probably better than them steak's 💯🤣🤣
Missing basic ingredients is a hooge fail, but I thought you were a little unfair. They cracked a lot more chips into that cup than you expected, the steaks did look medium and medium raw in the close-ups, and it seemed a reasonable place. Still, 10 out of 10 for rocking the cougar print look...
Miller and carter is an average Joe steakhouse! Thin steaks that are decent only. Try hawksmoore in london for a proper steak.
Also didn’t catch lee’s score
Stop faffin’ with the score. Give an honest score for the food then give one for the juice….job done!
I said how much the juice was. 😉❤️
Did I really just type that sentence 😂
Smacks like a bit of very poor management. What would I do if we ran out of? whats on the menu? Leeds is not a small Town, £20/£40 off to Tesco, job done. Unless its a Seasonal food, and not available I would have walked out. What no plates and yes it smackes of plate fillers , but with no plates. Very thin fatty meat? I would give it a 4.1.
All of my favourite UA-camrs I follow do a great job and I believe in them. All the best 👍
Hi Lee and blonde angel nice to see you both again I look the sound of their burgers
What’s with the fad of serving steaks already cut or sliced? For that reason alone it would only score a 2 from me.
