Chef Bar

Picture
The setup: Seating only around 15 people in a narrow shophouse on Asoke Soi 2, Chef Bar may be tiny, but it’s certainly big on flavour and character.

Highlights: Cape Grim Ribeye and Sirloin 240g, and Robbins Island Rump 240g (start at B900), which come served with roasted bone marrow, mash or chips, and red wine jus as required. Fancy splashing out? Treat yourself to the amazing Robbins Island Full blood grass fed Wagyu Ribeye (available on

Highlights: USDA Prime NY Striploin 300g (B1,195++); Grilled rib eye 300g (B1,195++); and Filet mignon 240g (B1,195++).

Tenderloins Bar & Grill

Picture
The setup: Notable for successfully marrying a crackling bar and an excellent grill featuring some of Bangkok’s most reasonably priced steaks, Tenderloins, on Sukhumvit 33, has a lot going for it. The menu is short, but features beef from Argentina, Australia, New Zealand and the USA. Building on its popularity, Tenderloins recently opened a second branch on Pattanakan 30.

Highlights: This month it’s all about the Rugby World Cup. Not only can you enjoy selected beers at just B125 per pint, but you can also tuck into juicy steaks for as little as B300.

Sukhumvit Soi 33(BTS Prom Phong), Tel: 02 258 4529 www.tenderloins33.com


Prime Steakhouse

The setup: There’s always a sense of culinary adventure when dining at Prime. Travelling to the Millennium Hilton Bangkok by boat (from Saphan Taksin BTS) is a real pleasure, and the views of the Chao Phraya River, afforded from the restaurant’s position on the third-floor, never fail to impress. Then there’s the steaks: Miyazaki Japanese beef; USDA approved Black Angus beef; and Australian 500 days grain fed Tajima Wagyu – all cooked in a wood-fired oven.

Highlights: All of the above. But if we had to pick just one dish, the Prime Tajima Wagyu steak tartar (B950).

The setup: This longstanding expat favourite is best known for its Cajun/Creole food from Louisiana’s bayou country (house specialties include Blackened Redfish, Crayfish raisedon and some of the best Gumbo you’ll find in Thailand), but its char-grilled steaks – imported USDA Prime Cuts and local Thai-French beef – are great too, and just perfect for devouring alongside an American craft beer on a Friday or Saturday night when the restaurant is at its atmospheric best. (Off topic, but the all-you-can-eat Mexican buffet, every Tues from 6pm-10pm, at B325++, is also well-worth a visit).

Highlights: USDA Prime Filet Mignon 340g (B1,490++), USDA

Prime New York Striploin 340g (B1,400++), and the Cajun Blackened USDA Prime Rib Eye 340g (B1,490) – a sumptuous treat you won’t find elsewhere in Bangkok.

Bourbon Street Restaurant & Oyster Bar


Wine Connection the grill

The setup: Building on the huge success of its nationwide chain of affordable wine shops, delis and bistros, Wine Connection has now opened its very first steakhouse – and it’s a meaty triumph. Located on the ground-floor of trendy dining hotspot Groove at CentralWorld, Wine Connection The Grill is the brand’s most upmarket offering yet. Similar to its other ventures around Thailand, though, the focus remains on affordable quality. And this translates here into some of the most reasonably priced high-quality steaks in town.
Wine Connection The Grill
Highlights: The Australian Tenderloin (240g; grain fed for 150 days; B1,190+*) is wonderfully tender and tasty to boot; the Rib eye bone in (850g; B1,890+) for two to share is eye-popping in size and simply delicious; and the premium Chateaubriand (500g; B2,390+), a center cut fillet and most tender part of the beef, also for two to share, is truly a meaty masterpiece.
