Featured Dry-Aged Cuts

  • 8oz RIBEYE From 29

    The Ribeye comes from the rib section of the cow, known for its high marbling, which creates a rich, juicy, and intensely flavourful steak. It's ideal for those who enjoy a tender, succulent cut with a pronounced taste.

  • 8oz Sirloin From 29

    The Sirloin is cut from the back of the cow, and is known for being leaner with a firmer texture than the Ribeye. It offers a robust, meaty flavour with less fat, making it a great choice for those who prefer a leaner, yet still flavourful, steak.

  • 8oz Fillet From 41

    The Fillet, or tenderloin, is cut from the smaller end of the tenderloin, located under the ribs. It’s the most tender cut with a very mild, almost delicate flavour, and is prized for its fine texture. This steak is perfect for those who prioritise tenderness and a melt-in-the-mouth experience.

  • 10oz Sirloin From 31

    A larger version of the Sirloin, this 10-ounce cut provides a bit more meat while maintaining the lean and firm characteristics.

  • 10oz Fillet From 46
