Sam Aberman Stopped in for a midweek lunch and was reminded why the Flat Iron formula works so well.
Theyve figured out what most restaurants overcomplicate: do a few things brilliantly rather than everything adequately.
The menu is refreshingly focused—a handful of steak cuts (plus whatever special is running that day), a tight selection of sides and sauces, and thats it.
Youre here for steak, they cook steak, everyones happy.
Service was quick and genuinely friendly, the kind where you feel looked after without being interrupted every two minutes.
The Kings Cross branch is smaller than some of the others, which actually works in its favour—the intimate space has a nice atmosphere, all warm wood and cosy corners.
And the pricing? Reasonable for London, especially for this quality. Sometimes the simple approach is the right one. Who needs more?
