Will, Happy B-day🎉🎉 Now that was a very nice meal! I've eaten at Hawksmoor in London some years ago & enjoyed it very much! They're very famous for the toffee dessert😅
Thank you! It was amazing, easily one of our favorite steakhouses yet. We’d love to try it in London as well. Haha yes, I’m grateful our waiter insisted we try it!
So this is on my radar, but I have yet to try it. I lived in England for a year, and never tried it there, either. As I love all things Negroni, that cocktail (well, both actually) sounds amazing! I'll definitely have to get there. And, Happy Birthday Will!
Let us know what you think of it if you get the chance to try it! I wish we had known about it when we were in London as well, we’ll have to go the next time we’re over there. The cocktails are fantastic and they actually had a few different Negronis on the menu. Thank you!
I live here and love these reviews. Been wanting to hit this spot up for awhile now. I’d love for you guys to hit up: 4 Charles, Cote, Fish Cheeks next
Great review! I was planning to visit Keens steakhouse when I'm in NYC next month but I might do Hawksmoor instead. Everything looked incredible!! & Happy birthday!!🎂
Thank you!! Keens vs. Hawksmoor is a really tough call. I think Keens is better for an old fashioned, historic New York experience. Hawksmoor doesn’t have that New York feel but it’s still beautiful and the food is fantastic. Both are amazing though!
I have dined at Keene's twice. I had their lunch menu of their prime rib (smaller portion). MOUTH WATERING 😋 PERFECTION!! The service was sublime. I have reservations to Hawksmoor for next week. Look forward to visiting with friends ❤.
@@jkhegarty857 Let us know what you think of it! We had an amazing time at Hawksmoor but we've heard from some people that they didn't enjoy it as much as we did. Would love to hear about your experience!
@@travelfuller Hi Travel!! 👋 Sure thing. I went on their website to peruse their menu. Their Chateaubriand looks/sounds enticing. Thank you for your review of their carrots. Love carrots. They look mmm, mmm, good 😋.
Okay I guess I am officially your channel's fan. love all your vids and of course "Wow" (but said in that signature staccato style) I saw a vid a long time ago about a place in NY called Ci Siamo, that looked very interesting (wood fired stove), would you consider looking into it, if it is even around anymore? Also, I am out in CA so next time we are in Vegas we'll check out that place at Wynn's you recommended, it's in walking distance of where we usually stay. Thanks again for the great and informative entertainment
Haha wow! Thanks for your support, it means so much to us! Yes, Ci Siamo is excellent. We haven't been since we started the channel but it's definitely worth going back to for a video. That's great, hopefully you enjoy it! Let us know what you think!
I remember this chain restaurant with the word 'University' in it. This in California, 30 year ago. I like the pan fried steak for breakfast. It a thin cut. Less than a centimeter thick. Gray in the inside, but you use Tabasco sauce and salt and pepper, it pretty kick ass. 'Best' steak a reality for people eat steak after 6pm. Some people eat heaviest meal at lunch or breakfast. If you no know how to cook, you pretty impress by 'utility' meal.
Thank you! We're going to try to keep posting twice a week and post a few different food tour style videos soon so hopefully something gains a little traction!
Went there last year. The bar area was very lively. Wish there was a bit more room between tables along the banquette row like you had. Felt like I was at a cafeteria. Would sit in the bar next time. Food and drink were outstanding, though,.
We always get to restaurants right at opening so we can have our pick of table. Makes it much easier to film but also gives us a bit of a non-replicable experience. By the time we left there wasn't a single open table. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks!! It would’ve been about $275 if we had paid for the sticky toffee pudding. Definitely not cheap but pretty inline with most of the city’s steakhouses
@@travelfuller Thanks! By the way, I'd love to know what video equipment you use to make your videos, excellent resolution, and use of depth of field - very professional!
It’s funny. Me being British I have been eating at Hawksmoor over here for years but the best steak I have still had has been in the U.S.. Sparks, The Benjamin and SW at the Wynne Las Vegas my personal favourites.
Haha it's hard to say if this was the best steak we've ever had but it was definitely one of them. We just posted a video about Benjamin and we're planning on making one for Sparks and SW very soon!
Yes, definitely! We've heard mixed things about their rump steak but we'll have to go back and try it. We'll be posting a video on St. Anselm next week but their $34 hanger steak was unbelievably good
Yeah that was a weird way of phrasing that... I think she was trying to say that the fat on the end added a soft texture, but the crust on our steak was perfect
Hawksmoor is fabulous! I wonder if this Hawksmoor is connected to Vancouver's Hawksmoor?! I will have to check and ask! What a gorgeous restaurant and I love their integrity. Carbon neutral and donating to charities sells me immediately on this restaurant! I can't wait to visit on my next trip to Manhattan in 2 months. Gorgeous cocktails and wowza to the food! I'd go for a Manhattan or a Martini - very dry! Oh wow! I live bone marrow. I am about to switch to being vegetarian for health reasons but I have to wait until I visit this amazing restaurant!! Fabulous video! So well done! Cheers! 🙂
They have locations all over the US and UK, plus another in Dublin, but I'm not sure there are any in Canada yet. It looks like there is a similar restaurant in Vancouver called Hawksworth! But yes! It's amazing they are so dedicated to sustainability and service. Haha this would be a perfect send off to eating meat! If you visit, definitely let us know what you thought of it. Hopefully you have a great experience! Thanks so much!
Living in London Hawksmoor is very accessable, and I've been to three of their branches. They are very good, but there is so much better available. I'm sure everybody has their favourite, and Sagardi in Shoreditch, is not particularly mine, but it's Basque dairy cow steaks will take you to steak heaven! It's not a competition but the best this and the best that, is very reliant on personal opinion. When it comes to food I welcome a good recommendation, but let me be the judge of whether it's the best I've ever had...
Dairy cow is a big trend here. The animals are normally 10+ and the meat is full of character. Many restaurants have discovered it, and a particularly good one in London is Fallow. When you come to London, GO to Fallow!
@@titusrider7948 But for it to be funny it needs to have at least an element of truth in it. Boiling beef has been popular in the US and UK and even Austria for reasons of difficulty finding good quality meat. However its not at all popular now and hasn't been for many generations. There isn't actually anything inherently wrong with boiling a steak (sous vied style certainly would work) as long as you sear it at the end. The end result wouldn't be significantly worse as long as you took care of water time and temp, (ideally you would bag the steak) to stop the juices leaving into the water. But what do I know as a Brit. I haven't a clue. FYI ua-cam.com/video/13I6JlKMeHg/v-deo.html&ab_channel=ThatRecipe
Some others have commented this as well! We always go right at opening and often on weekdays so we can film but that means we’re not there for typical conditions
DO NOT GO DO NOT GO. I was sooooo disappointed and I will tell you why. I am a steak expert and a semi Pro cook. I have eaten in just about every top steak house in NY but never this place so I was excited. Me and my best friend went. We are both medical professionals. I wanted a 20 ounce T bone but I was told they had none available. They only had porterhouse and minimum size 26 ounces. I agreed. My friend ordered the Filet Mignon. Porterhouse is $1.50 more per ounce than T-Bone because the ratio of the fillet portion is higher than a T-Bone. I ordered medium rare. They brought me a T-Bone NOT a Porterhouse. I refused the steak and I was starving! They came back 10 minutes later with another T-Bone and I blew my top. I refused the steak again. I asked for the manager but instead the waitress came back and said the manager was going to send me a Filet Mignon free WITH the T-Bone that they supposedly didn't have available. It came and was NOT medium rare but more medium and I hate medium. This was a lot of bull and obviously 90% of customers would not have known that the steak was NOT a Porterhouse. I knew. I was so angry by then and disappointed it didn't matter anymore. The bone marrow appetizer had practically NO marrow. The mashed potatoes side was so small we had to order 2. The bill came to almost $400 dollars and I just wanted to get the hell out so I paid without even checking the ridiculous price. We got 2 desserts to go and for 10 bucks they give you 3 small pieces of chocolate candy. !!!!. They should stay in the UK because they are not worth the trip even to Manhattan. Never again. We should have went to Lugers or the Capital Grill. Huge waste of money and time. The lies about the Porterhouse and the trouble they went to trying to cover it up was insulting and disappointing.
I had similar experience with a steak chain in the USA Ruth C….., they brought me a steak that I’ve gotten better in longhorn and the wrong bottle of wine already-opened it was terrible service I had to leave a negative review that I had never done before never again would I go to that chain !
I have been to various Hawksmoor's all over England and they are expensive but the service should be amazing. Your experience doesn't seems at odds with the numerous times I have been to the groups restaurants.
We've heard something similar from a few other people as well. I'm surprised because ours was excellent. We'll have to go back and see if we just got lucky this time
@@KrisKk08 Yes I am a tourist but not a stranger to the best steak houses in the world. My research indicates that they are very environmentally friendly and place a big emphasis on DEI. This my New Yorker friend = WOKE
am not exactly sure what “British owned” has got to do with the calibre of the food on offer? Very little, I imagine. Brits famously do certain dishes but Steak (which in itself is boring stuff) is not one of them - especially overpriced and flavourless meat coming from corn-fed cattle is underwhelming
I think you answered your own question! Steak isn't necessarily something you'd expect to be excellent from a UK based restaurant, making it that much more significant we felt it held its own against it's famous New York counterparts. And it is certainly expensive but similarly priced to all of the steakhouses in the city
@@travelfuller hallo and thanks for yours. Yes but I would be remiss not to say - that a joint of beef in the UK and as is often the case in much of Europe, is properly grass-fed, which imparts a great deal more flavour without falling back on a high percentage of fat to lean ratio for flavour. I have lived in both countries. Alas, Americans are cultured in dining and food consumption by the dreaded cosmetic industry, which simply means it’s not uncommon for them to avert anything with a strong aroma and flavour. These steakhouses extol a glamorisation of excess, waste and grotesque eating habits
I really enjoyed this style of review, definitely deserves more views!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it! Any restaurants you'd like to see a video on?
With Kristins smiles at the end it looks like she had some good drinks as well.
Great review and I’m looking forward to future reviews!
Thanks so much!
Always enjoy the couple approach to your reviews. Great review as usual!!

Hawksmoor in Knightsbridge London is literally the best steak in UK!! I can't wait to try it in NYC
Let us know how they compare! We’re so curious if it’s different in the US vs the UK!
Micky D's fries back in the day were fried in beef tallow. Which made them the "Cat's Meow!" Take that to the bank!
Wow! That's amazing. It's unbelievable how similar these fries are to McDonald’s
So this is on my radar, but I have yet to try it. I lived in England for a year, and never tried it there, either. As I love all things Negroni, that cocktail (well, both actually) sounds amazing! I'll definitely have to get there. And, Happy Birthday Will!

Hawksmoor in NY? The same as the UK owners? Do they also serve a full English breakfast?
Yes, it's part of the same group! They're opening another in Chicago as well. This one isn't open for breakfast but they do serve a full Sunday roast
I feel like that sirloin for $117 is a lot. My ribeye i just got from Wolfgangs looks as big if not bigger
It is, Hawksmoor is definitely not the place to go for a deal
@@travelfullerfind a good local diner. Good food, reasonable prices. Not vastly overpriced.

Yeah that was a weird way of phrasing that... I think she was trying to say that the fat on the end added a soft texture, but the crust on our steak was perfect
Dont forget the new Dublin venue. Reviews so far are mediocre mainly due to service and pricing, but that's Dublin all over.

I thought hawksmoor was a fusion of American/British?
21 dollars a cocktail is a joke
To scare away the poor people😂
Rich wants nothing more than privacy
Been there a number of times and think it’s a great dining setting but thought the steak was good but to me it’s no Peter Lugars
This was medium; not medium-rare.
need a girl who look at me the same way like kristin.
