Good food and great service. The cuts are unfortunately too large for one person but if you're willing to share then they work out great!

Better than Hawksmoor and Gaucho for every dish you could possibly order. Obviously expensive but great atmosphere. Service very charming (can be a tad slow but adds to slightly prolong a lovely occasion. Would love to return again :)

Amazing service and food as always at Goodman. The steak frites at lunch time is a great value (£25) deal for high end steak. You can easily pay the same elsewhere for something that doesn't even come close to being as good as Goodman.

Enjoyed the food. The sides were small especially the veg. Service good. Wine excellent. I would come again. Didn’t really understand why I would buy a steak from the blackboard over the menu, but perhaps I missing something...

Everything about our meal was perfect. The crackers with caraway seeds as nibbles were unbelievably tasty. We then shared a USDA Porterhouse which was cooked to perfection and tasted amazing, as did the creamed spinach and chips plus three types of sauce. The wine was fabulous. Then to cap it all off the cheesecake & berry compote. Oh my word - the berries! Totally amazing food, really great service and loved every minute. Thanks - I will be back!

Excellent steak, good chips and great service. Terrific range of meat and cuts. Decent value for money for London, but not cheap: you get what you pay for though.

Best steak in London! Amazing service as well and perfect atmosphere! Not too dark, bot too bright-alot of space-the music level was just right-everything was great! The table was booked for a birthday and we got one of the best tables in the restaurant. At the end of the dinner, we were also served a small birthday dessert (without asking for it)! Overall it was a very good experience and would definitely recommend!

Superb food. Exceptional service. That's it! Couldn't compare it to another restaurant I've been to. The staff recommended the wine and it was the second cheapest not the most expensive. They seemed to really care about the taste and not about the profit. They even recommended not having more side dishes as the 2 we ordered were enough to share. Very impressed

Great steaks and sides in a convivial atmosphere. An extensive wine list, with some real gems by the bottle or glass. The right balance of traditional appearance, good service and informal hubbub.

Greeted efficiently on arrival. Table was ready however my guests had not arrived so went to the bar. I always think it's good when a restaurant has a proper bar area to meet friends or colleagues. Bar staff knowledgeable regarding drinks. At the table the server knew the menu well and explained only the meats cuts requested (So much better than Gaucho....). Food arrival was efficient and not too quick or slow. Wine list comprehensive. Ended up back at the bar after the meal. Change of staff but equally as efficient and chatty. Very good.

Good Steaks - perhaps slightly overdone against the instructions given. The side orders - vegetables, fries etc are not up to the same standard, and not as good as other similar chains. Beer selection is absolutely terrible - the assumption is that everyone wants wine. This branch has always served better meat than the Mayfair one, but the demographic is a rather boring monotone - everyone is a banker...

Great service from being greeted throughout the whole meal. Great steaks. Puddings good but the meat was the reason Goodman's is so good. Great decor. Thought it would be more expensive so pleasantly surprised but please don't put the prices! Definitely will reccomend. Would like to go again when I have the cash and am in London. Nice.
