We had a wonderful anniversary dinner at Smith & Wollensky.
From start to finish, the experience was excellent.
The two of us shared the jumbo shrimp cocktail (although not as jumbo as I expected) and the classic Wollensky salad, followed by a Kansas cut sirloin and a beautifully cooked USDA Prime steak—everything was outstanding and perfectly prepared.
The service was attentive and polished, and the atmosphere had that timeless, classic Smith & Wollensky feel.
To make the evening even more special, the staff surprised us with two glasses of champagne and a small cake to celebrate our anniversary, which was such a thoughtful touch.
Overall, a lovely dining experience and a perfect place for a special occasion in London.

Smith & Wollensky London absolutely nailed it! An outstanding steakhouse experience from start to finish — classy atmosphere, a fantastic wine list, and truly wonderful staff who made the evening feel special.
We started with the wedge salad and scallops, both perfectly prepared and full of flavor. For mains, we went all out with a Wagyu steak and a ribeye with a lobster add-on — the Wagyu literally melted with each bite, and the ribeye was juicy, rich, and flavor-packed.
My Manhattan was spot-on (loved that it’s fully customizable), and the wine was bold yet approachable — a perfect pairing for the meal.
An all-around amazing experience — top-notch food, drinks, and service. Can’t wait to come back! ✨

Exceptional Steakhouse Experience at Smith & Wollensky
This marks my second visit to Smith & Wollensky, and it has quickly become my top choice for an indulgent steak dinner before catching a show at the theatre or opera in London’s West End. The ambiance captures the essence of a classic New York steakhouse—elegant and upscale, with crisp white tablecloths, premium cutlery, and impeccable service that makes you feel truly pampered.
The steak selection is unparalleled in London, boasting an extensive menu divided into three premium categories: USDA Prime (mostly on-the-bone cuts for maximum flavor), grass-fed Irish Beef, and luxurious Wagyu options. My companion and I opted to sample the highlights from the USDA section, sharing the bone-in ribeye, T-bone, and Kansas City strip sirloin. The ribeye was the standout—perfectly marbled, juicy, and cooked to perfection, delivering that melt-in-your-mouth tenderness. The T-bone followed closely with its robust flavor profile, while the Kansas City strip, ordered medium as recommended, was slightly tougher and chewier than expected for such a high-caliber cut. Nonetheless, the overall quality was outstanding.
We complemented our meal with sides that elevated the experience; I highly recommend the crispy onion rings and sautéed mushrooms for their perfect balance of texture and taste. The wine list is impressively comprehensive, curated with expertise, and the knowledgeable sommelier provided spot-on recommendations to pair with our steaks.
Without a doubt, Smith & Wollensky ranks among London’s finest steakhouses. I’ll certainly be returning soon—highly recommended for any steak enthusiast!

We had a super special evening and very nice time at the S&W. The service service from Tomas (CZ) was just excellent and sweet at the same time. We had a super nice personal tour thru the restaurant and the food was just excellent as you can see in the pictures. Everything was just delicious. It’s 6 star, not 5. The drinks always on point. The signature S&W cocktail was very tasty. We will be back next time. Overall a very special experience this evening. Thank You for the special time.

Wow. I have eaten a lot of steak in some wonderful places, this is without doubt one of the best meals I have ever had. The steak was cooked to perfection and is the first steak I have never had to add anything too, the taste can not be put into words, the flavour explodes in your mouth leaving you short of breath as to how someone can completely change the way you enjoy steak. This was beyound perfection. I came here as I had heard the steak was good, but nothing could have prepared me for the marvel that was brought to the table. I salivated at every bite, I took as long as I could to eat so I could fully enjoy every mouthful, as every part added to the experiance, the perfectly cooked and seasoned chips that again for the first time needed no extra salt. This was not just a meal it was perfection personified. From the entry and the table service, everything was on point. This place knows how to treat its diners. Go at least once if you can as you will not be dissapointed. I had the £80 rib eye on the bone as recomended by the waitress as their most flavoursome steak and boy was it. Take a bow Smith & Wollensky Take a bow. I hope to come again soon no matter how expensive you may think it is, it is worth it.

Beautiful restaurant and craaazy good food!! Immediately loved the vibe and the restaurant itself is so gorgeous, it made me feel like I was in New York. Jeans and a nice top kid of place, and it’s not a very big place but it didn’t feel cramped. Had to get oysters to start, and that red sauce served with it is so addicting. Good selection of steak, we just got a big fillet to share with garlic butter (insane combo, 10/10) and a few sides. That was enough to fill us up but I heard about the cake so I knew we needed to see it for ourselves. It was hilariously humongous and it completely blew me away, just so good with the cream. Obviously couldn’t finish it but I can’t wait to have the leftovers for breakfast tomorrow. Thank you to all the staff for such a lovely night!!

From start to finish, Lukas delivered exceptional service that made our evening at Smith & Wollensky truly memorable. His professionalism, warmth, and genuine enthusiasm stood out right away — he greeted us with a big smile and kept that same positive energy throughout the night.
Lukas managed our table with effortless confidence, ensuring everything ran smoothly while maintaining a friendly and approachable demeanor. He knew the menu inside out, offered excellent recommendations, and was always attentive without ever being intrusive. Whether it was handling our large order with precision, ensuring our drinks were topped up, or timing each course perfectly, everything he did reflected care and pride in his work.
When the bill came (a substantial one!), we all agreed it was worth it — not just for the quality of the food but because Lukas made the whole dining experience feel special. His attitude, attention to detail, and charm added a personal touch that elevated the evening far beyond expectations.
If you’re dining at Smith & Wollensky, ask for Lukas — you’ll be in the best possible hands.
