    I spent a few days in Istanbul last year, ate at Nusr-et twice.
    It's the same food, just much more affordable, especially at the current exchange rate.
    You could fly to Istanbul on Pegasus Airlines from Stansted, get a 5* hotel for the night, eat that exact same meal and still have a few hundred pound in change to splurge at the designer village next to the airport, the grand bazaar or the dozens of excellent baklava stores.
    For those of you who aren't millionaires and spending a large chunk of your salary just for the "experience", you'd probably get more memories out of a weekend in Istanbul. Fair enough, it's not going to be the "big man" feeding you, just some clone. But that's offset by the fact you can eat at the original Nusr-et restaurant. Plus the big man will soon be out of London when the weather gets cold anyway!

      Everyone has this misconception that Istanbul is cheaper. Yes it is cheaper but that Is because don’t use Wagyu beef in Istanbul. The restaurants in Turkey all use local meat. He owns a number of farms in Turkey.
      Wagyu beef is only used is Dubai, UK, USA and Mykonos.

      @@HoggiSami It's just cheaper generally at the current exchange rate.
      For comparison, the Nusr-et special sushi is £7 in Istanbul and £23 in London. The dish looks identical.
      A Coca Cola is £9 and a Red Bull £11 in London. A soft drink was less than £2 in Istanbul.
      I'm absolutely certain they could do 2 days (1 night) in Istanbul including a 5* hotel room and return flights on Pegasus + eating at Nusr-et (a very similar meal, if not for Wagyu) and have a chunk of change from £900 for sure.

    The place is more about bragging rights, a pretentious tariff for what is a decent bit of meat and mediocre vegetables. While we all like the restaurant staff to be attentive I would not appreciate all that drama and messing with my food.

    Considering the bill you paid, you werent rude or arrogant to the staff, and you can tell they enjoyed serving your team.
    Agree with other comments, where the experience outweighs the food, and as a food reviewer, you can say you have reviewed the trend and viral character of "salt bae".

    Can't stand people overlooking me and interfering when I'm trying to enjoy a meal. Steak was rare, not medium to rare as stated by the waiter and you could get as much of that cut plus many other cuts of steak for £28 at my local rodizio. Fair play for trying it though.

    The food might be tasty, but for 1000 £ you can buy not one but two cows from a farmer in most of eastern Europe. The beef price is roughly 7 pounds per kilo in supermarkets.

  • @duckworthselect826

    I agree with what you say, a great meal is who you are with and what the food is like. The problem with going to this place is you know it is going to cost a fortune and that would be at the fore front of my mind all the time and make the experience less enjoyable. Definitely better places to go for an amazing steak without have to spend nearly £1000. Great review Matt 👍

    Anyone getting outraged at the prices then you're clearly not their target audience. This place is for people who don't even look at the prices. They've probably thought it's better to have one table spending 2 grand on a meal than 10 tables spending 200 quid. They can give each and every customer their full attention. It makes no difference what so ever if its value for money, most people spend money they don't need to every day, some people just do it on a bigger scale. The fact is it shuts down if they don't get the customers in.

    Excellent review! To be honest, I thought the owner knowing you have spent a fortune in his restaurant would have been more talkative rather than pulling a few faces and throwing salt all over the place. Looking at the review I’d prefer to have spent the money at 2 different 5 star restaurants. Love every review you guys do

    Great review - really appreciated the balance and honesty. Salt Bae is a butcher by origin, so it's not surprising that he knows his meat, but he clearly needs someone who'll give the same sort of love to the vegetables. And while a bit of theatricality is fine and fun - we eat with all our senses, after all - there was way too much fussing and faffing about. That's more like invasion of personal space. As for feeding food to me, I wouldn't accept anyone doing that except my wife, a nurse (if I was incapable) or, when I was toddler, my mother. End of!

    @danielpedersen1688 2 роки тому +1

    i don't get why people are complaining about this, yea it costs a lot and so what? i live in Copenhagen and trust me one of the best Michelin star restaurants happens to be in the city center just 20-25 minutes from where i live, it's called Noma and they charge 282 pounds per person, so let's say if 7 people came along to the michelin star restuarant that would be over a grand and to be honest i've looked at the menu of Nusr-et's restaurant on their website and i gotta say it's quite reasonable 20-35 pound meals i honestly thought it would be a lot more while other michelin stars i've come across are probably 10x the price of that so it's not bad for the price it's very reasonable, sure it depends what u order but for a decent meal i don't see an issue.
