Steakhouse Glamour Just Steps from the Action

Located inside the iconic Hippodrome Casino in London's buzzing Leicester Square, Heliot Steak House offers a bold, glamorous dining experience just minutes from many of the city's top concert venues. Known for its award-winning USDA prime steaks, plush red leather booths, and dramatic views overlooking the casino floor, this spot blends old-school steakhouse indulgence with modern London energy. With a smart casual dress code and a location that practically puts you in the heart of the action, it’s a go-to for a night that starts (or ends) with a bang.

Why Concert-goers love it

Heliot’s location is unbeatable – right in Leicester Square, it's a short stroll from many central music venues. The service is quick and professional, ideal if you're on a tight pre-show schedule. The atmosphere is lively without being too loud, and the elevated seating gives you a great view of the casino buzz below. Plus, with a menu built around hearty, indulgent dishes and a strong wine and cocktail list, it’s the kind of place where you can kick off a night out in style.

Who this Restaurant is great for

• Groups of friends looking to share steaks and stories before a big night
• Solo travelers wanting a fun but comfortable spot to dine before a show

• Fans seeking a high-energy, central spot to soak in pre-show vibes
• Budget-conscious music lovers—Heliot offers great value for the quality, especially with pre-theatre deals

What People Say

Guests rave about the perfectly cooked steaks, especially the USDA prime cuts, and the generous portion sizes. Many mention the unique setting overlooking the casino floor as a fun twist. The cocktail list and attentive service also score high marks. Several diners appreciate the pre-theatre menu options and the fact that the restaurant is open late, making it a great post-show destination as well.

Areas for Improvement

Some diners note that the lighting can be a bit dim, which adds to the atmosphere but might not be ideal for everyone. Being inside a casino, it’s not the quietest spot – but that’s part of the charm for those looking for energy and buzz. A few guests mentioned longer waits during peak times, so a reservation is recommended.

The Bottom Line

Heliot Steak House pairs prime steaks with prime location – making it a stylish, satisfying choice for concert-goers looking to elevate their night out.
