jw steakhouse - grosvenor house

set within a 5 star hotel, jw steakhouse comes with 5 star pricing, though meat lovers will attest that quality steak is worth paying for. all in all, i had an extremely pleasurable dining experience at jw steakhouse with a fun, yet mature atmosphere making it an ideal location for groups of friends or colleagues to enjoy world class food in a world renowned setting.

jw steakhouse burgers - a rip off. we went to jw steakhouse last night (9 of us) as part of our monthly burger club in london. it was the most disappointing, tasteless and dry burger we had so far and considering the £17 price tag this was borderline offensive. you can get something close to the best burger in the universe for £15 at goodmans or hawksmoore or even cheaper at meat liquor. the meat had nothing to do at all with "steak" despite being called so, the buns were unimaginative and dry, the cheese was cold and sticky and the fries appeared to have originated from a freezer bag. you get a better burger in most pubs for half the price.

we shall never return.

last night i attended the jw steakhouse launch party at the grosvenor house hotel on park lane. the new kid on the block, jw steakhouse is a serious competitor to the likes of goodman and hawksmoor who currently hold the crown and a dear place in my heart

another steak restaurant looking to be the best in london, jw steakhouse has set itself a challenge that few would relish. the competition challenging for that top table place is fierce and only last week, my stk london waiter promised me 'the best steak of my life', but he needs to get out more. i have further reservations here however as jws is in, and part of, grosvenor house hotel, park lane, a jw marriott hotel, hence jw steakhouse: this is rarely good news. the hotel-steakhouse arrangement is not one we have liked for either  cut at 45 park lane or stk london.   restaurant menus have been rotated from portrait to landscape while the online menu i'm looking at right now starts with dessert, then has wines by the glass, and then moves to starters, steaks, market potatoes before finishing with soups & salads, mains and sides. are they trying just a little too hard to be different i wonder  on the starters, there's kansas city steak soup which sounds kind of fun, so tempted, but with

amazing place in london. i love the food. can’t wait to come back here again. congratulations to the staff.

visited to try their famous cheesecake after hearing so much about it. chose the cheesecake from the little bakery / shop outside jw steakhouse and asked to sit in the steakhouse to have tea/ coffee with it. thoroughly enjoyed the cheesecake - the filling is a little bit runnier than your average cheesecake, but it really works and it's really good. it may not be the best cheesecake i've ever had, but i could understand the hype. the portion is huge and good for atleast 3-4 people. the waiters on the other hand, could not have been more displeased to seat us and were so rude and arrogant. they kept hovering and it was like they could not wait for us to leave! such a shame as it ruins the whole experience.

walking distance from hyde park this hotel restaurant has become one my favourite places in the city. i have been there already 4 or 5 times, every visit was full of great culinary experiences. great service, astonishing bourbon cocktails by the bar, international team of employees always happy to help and serve you. i can definietely recommend beef fillet oscar with some shrimps and sauce on top or just new york strip, perfectly grilled as requested (medium rare in our case is the only possible way). they have also very good variety of wines, large salads (ceasar is great, but you won't be able to have a main course after that for sure) and interesting soups of the day (i had mushroom one with truffle oil on top - it was absolutely amazing choice on a rainy evening). if you are not into meat, even better reason to come over is famous jw cheescake, propably the best cake i had been eating in my whole life. all the ingredients are imported from us, but the cake itself is baked in hotel. standard portion is massive, i recommend to share it for a couple or order piece take away.

been in jw grosvenor hotel several times, and had the chance to try this restaurant.
the waitresses always feel you welcomed, they are so friendly.
as a starter, the prawn cocktail is tasty. for the main, the ribeye steak is delicious.
definitely a recommended steakhouse in london.

my father and i just decided to check whether if they had a table or not since we haven't reserved one earlier and lucky us we found a table.

starter : spinach artichoke dip toooooo good a must !!

i had the grilled prawns there were four pieces and ya perfectly grilled

the cheesecake is a must as well
however the one that they serve is good for 4-5 people too big for two people 😂

we arrived to the gorgeous setting of jw steakhouse in the grosvenor house on a wednesday evening. 

we automatically had a fantastic waitress call ceara who knew everything inside and out about the menu so we decided to take her advice. 

starters: 

- prawn cocktail- jumbo prawns with caviar- what more could you ask for 

- tuna tartare- topped with avocado spread- so fresh. absolutely delicious 

mains: 

- ribeye steak topped with crab, asparagus and hollandaise sauce. this was gorgeous. highly recommend! 

sides and sauces: 

- potatoes gratin with truffle salt on top- gorgeous! 

- sweet potato fries 

- red wine sauce and peppercorn sauce 

desserts: 

- ultimate cheesecake- you must try this- it's the best i have ever had. it is huge so ask for a doggy bag! 

- apple pie- so fresh filled with apple bits and raisins! 

we chose our menu so well and recommend all of the above! 

make sure you are hungry because you will be full for days! huge portions.

jw steakhouse is located inside the grosvenor hotel on parklane which is a jw marriott property, my first impression of the property was very good it is very beautiful and located in the heart of the city overlooking the magnificent hyde park. the steakhouse is quite big with outdoor seating, they also serve sheesha outside which makes this restaurant even more attractive for sheesha lovers.

my order consisted of half a lobster baked with garlic butter, prawn cocktail, and half a portion of the crab cakes. the prawn cocktail was very good the prawns and lettuce were very fresh and the cocktail sauce was very good, the crab cake was quite flavourful and quite big for a small portion however, the lobster was the real star it was perfectly cooked and bursted with flavor. to end the meal i ordered the jw cheesecake which was another cracker of a dish.

i would suggest all of you foodies out there to try the steakhouse at the grosvenor hotel, and you guys must order the lobster and the cheesecake.

a trip to jw steakhouse is a real treat! the food is delicious, the service is flawless and the interior has a certain luxurious appeal.

the restaurant offers tender hand-cut selections of american usda prime beef, which was music to my ears because i love a good steak! i ordered the 'new york strip' with a stilton and port sauce and my partner ordered the oscar fillet, both with truffle salt fries. it was all very decadent and tasty. the portions were of a good size and it's safe to say that i felt satisfied with the meal!

while the truffle salt fries had a great distinctive taste to them, they were a little greasy  and short in size (i know that's a strange thing to comment on, but it was a little bizarre!)  the steaks were good, but i've had steaks of just as good quality elsewhere - for a cheaper price!

you pay more at jw for the location and service, both of which are incredible. all in all, i would say that the restaurant would be the perfect place to celebrate a special occasion like an anniversary or birthday.

mayfair is not an area i normally frequent but i ventured over to this part of town to try this high end steakhouse. jw steakhouse is set within the grosvenor house hotel, it has a classy, polished feel to it with low lighting & trendy fixtures. the service here is very attentive, we choose a bottle of the cheap wine, and at £36 that should give you an idea of price here & were presented with a tasty little loaf baked in a small pot - it was delicious. we opted to share the 'tomahawk' rib-eye, bearnaise sauce, truffle salt fries & sautéed wild mushrooms. the steak arrived as a whole piece and with it's huge bone throughout looked like something fred flintstone would eat, we were asked to check if it was cooked how we had requested (it was perfectly medium-rare) they took the steak back to the kitchen to slice up for us. there was more then enough meat for too, beautifully flavoured, well cooked & worked so well with a perfectly zingy bearnaise sauce. the truffle salt fries were delicious with a lovely flavour, the mushrooms were great but i would have preferred them to have been a bit more garlicky. to finish my other half insisted we went for what is dubbed the 'best cheesecake this side of the pond' at £14 it is an expensive dessert but then when it arrived we could see why- it was enough to feed 5 people! the cheesecake was very nice, the gingery base was so good but the best cheesecake in the country? mmm i'm not sure it was nice but i wasn't wowed. all in all this a lovely place for a special occasion, the steak is fantastic but you will pay a high price for it.

the atmosphere in the jw steakhouse is more than cozy, marvelous, classy and attractive! 
located in central london and the famous grosvendor house i would highly recommend this restaurant not only for the quality they provide in part of the food but also the service they offer to their customers! 
the cuisine is mainly anglo-american and i would recommend to order the grilled lobster, hickory smoked short ribs in bbq sauce or the longhorn burger with crisp bacon which are from my favourites as a main dishesh! 
their wine list is marvelous as well, i prefer the red wines like the aregntinian ones-  catena zapata nicasia single vineyard, malbec ! great place to visit!

if you like big juicy steaks then jw steakhouse is the place to visit in london. with windows overlooking park lane, this is a large and lively restaurant with a bourbon bar at the far end that is worth arriving early for. our waiter then explained the different types of steaks on the menu, from the finest cuts of usda beef to the hand cut selections of aberdeen angus.
