About The Bull Steak Expert
The Spotlight on The Bull Steak Expert

Argentinian Steakhouse Excellence in the Heart of London

Located on Red Lion Street in Holborn, The Bull Steak Expert is a sleek, modern Argentinian restaurant known for its dedication to top-quality beef and attentive service. Just a short walk from central London’s major concert venues and theatres, it’s a perfect spot to fuel up before a big night out. With a smart casual dress code and a warm, polished interior, this is a spot where great food meets a touch of sophistication—without being stuffy.

Why Concert-goers love it

Proximity is a major draw—you're minutes from venues in the West End and near several Tube lines, making it easy to get to your show on time. The service is efficient and friendly, so you won't be left watching the clock. Many diners have praised the relaxed yet refined atmosphere, making it a calm place to enjoy a great meal before diving into the buzz of the night. The menu is focused and high-quality, so you can expect meals to arrive promptly without sacrificing flavour.

Who this Restaurant is great for

  • Groups of friends sharing fine cuts of meat and a bottle of Malbec
  • Solo travelers looking for a comfortable, welcoming place to dine before the show
  • Couples enjoying a romantic evening with great wine and intimate lighting
  • Fans craving a lively but not overcrowded pre-show vibe
  • Budget-conscious music lovers who still want a quality dining experience—especially with the lunch or early dinner set menus

What People Say

Guests rave about the authentic Argentinian steaks, with many calling them the “best in London.” The staff knowledge of cuts and wine pairings is frequently mentioned, as is the peaceful ambiance—perfect for conversation. Regulars love the attention to detail and the fact that the team makes you feel like a valued guest, whether it’s your first or fifth visit.

Areas for Improvement

Some diners note that it’s more of a place for a relaxed pre-concert meal rather than a quick bite—so if you're running late, it may not be ideal. Prices can lean toward the higher end, but most agree the quality justifies the cost.

The Bottom Line

If you’re looking for a refined, flavour-packed meal close to London’s top concert venues, The Bull Steak Expert delivers with style, warmth, and serious steak credentials.
