For the longest time, I’ve walked past this restaurant on my way to work, always tempted to go in. The ever-present sign boasting “award-winning burgers and steak” piqued my curiosity, especially since I consider myself an award-winning connoisseur of burgers, steak, and fries. So, naturally, I had to check this place out.

The restaurant is located in an unusual spot—right on the corner across the road from a tube station. It’s the kind of place where you’d expect to find a corner store or café, not a cool, quirky eatery like this.

Food review

Food:
For starters, my mum and I shared an olive bread and dip platter, which, I have to say, was one of the most unimpressive starters I’ve had in a while. The bread was overly salty, the olives were dry, and the oily dips didn’t do much to improve the experience.

For the main course, both my mum and I opted for the award-winning steak with wedges. It was good—tender, with a lovely smoky flavor—but was it the best steak I’ve ever had? No. However, it did live up to its “award-winning” claim. The only downside was the portion size, but given the price, I can’t really complain.

Drinks:
We stuck to water, so not much to report there, except that it was refreshing.

Service:
The service was fantastic. We were warmly greeted upon arrival and served by a handsome, Douglas Booth look-alike. He was super polite and very attentive, making the dining experience even better.

Verdict:
I’d rate this restaurant a 7/10. The food was great, apart from the starter, but the location is a bit odd for this kind of restaurant, and it was quite small. If you’re interested in trying Greedy Cow’s award-winning steak and burgers, their details are below. They can get quite busy on weekends, so it’s worth booking a table in advance.
