The 30 Best Steak house in Southampton

“Fantastic place serving authentic Mexican food! The owner is full of energy and gave us such a warm welcome. You could really tell he was passionate about the dishes and excited to share his knowledge. He gave us lots of recommendations, all of which we thoroughly enjoyed. Definitely one of my new favourite places in Southampton — I’ll absolutely be coming back. Thank you for the amazing experience!”

“Great little place. Been here 5 or 6 times over the years. Friendly staff, and good value for money steak. I really hope they never close down or change too much.”

“There are words to the outstanding service and the totally amazing food today. We were greeted by the manager, who was so friendly and supported a very happy team. Tiah gave great service and was so helpful, with Nick on the grill doing amazing food. They are a great asset to Miller and Carter, please recognise them in this reviews”

“Sitting in conservatory, was very comfortable. We just had cappuccino and cake then later pot of tea and chocolate tiffin. It was very nice. Staff were excellent, carrying a tray of tea/cake for me and clearing table when needed.”

“Really enjoyed our breakfast at Bill's. Their big breakfast isn't as big, but was definitely delicious and hence I was able to completely polish it off. They even changed the egg to match my preference. The bacon, baked beans, eggs, mushrooms, and sausages were cooked to perfection. The black pudding however was not my favourite. Their jam and toast martini with vodka was one of my favourite things all day. Definitely try this if you visit.”

“Just had a great Sunday lunch cooked by Chef Luke. Friendly service from Sam. Roast lamb was great and my wife had a half a roast chicken which she failed to finish - just due to the volume - and to ensure she could fit in some dessert. Cracking crumble and excellent bread and butter pudding with homemade vanilla custard. Great way to end a weekend away. Hoping to book the place for a birthday party next year...”

“Slightly biased as have been coming here since the early 80s, and although we miss the old style pub, it could have ended up much worse than it is design wise. Food quality is back on an even keel and is consistently of good quality and presentation this taking away that level of apprehension you feel when you go to so many restaurants these days. Shout out to the young ladies and men of the service team who provide a very professional level of service in a pub / restaurant which I know for a fact can suffer from some challenging customers at times...”

“Lovely food and atmosphere. The newly refurbished restaurant and additional seating area is a big improvement. Our server was Phoebe she was vey efficient and great service. As ever highly recommend”

“Food was really nice.. Staff were very friendly and professional. Good choice of different foods too. A little expensive on some of the steak meals, but they are speciality meats..”

“Servers (mine was leah) manage to combine being both incredibly friendly and efficient. Portion size is fantastic while tasting fresh so best of both worlds. Fast and fresh food with good sauce options and the vegan option tastes fantastic to the point I order either beef or vegan.”

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at The Old House at Home in Romsey, and it was an experience to remember! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm smiles and a cozy, inviting atmosphere. The rustic charm of the place, combined with its modern touches, made for a perfect setting. The menu offered a delightful array of dishes, each more tempting than the last. I opted for the roast lamb, which was cooked to perfection – tender, flavourful, and accompanied by the most delicious gravy. My partner chose the fish and chips, and it was hands down the best we’ve ever had. The portions were generous, and the presentation was top-notch. What truly set this place apart, though, was the exceptional service. The staff were attentive, friendly, and went out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed. They even took the time to chat with us about the history of the pub, which added a lovely personal touch to our visit. To top it all off, the dessert menu was a dream. We shared a sticky toffee pudding that was simply divine – the perfect end to a fantastic meal. If you’re in Romsey and looking for a place with great food, wonderful service, and a charming atmosphere, look no further than The Old House at Home. We’ll definitely be back!”

“Lively atmosphere with upbebay music played at a reasonable volume, quick to be seated. Service speed okay, and coffee beautiful Pizza was absolutely huge, hung over the side of the plate, which did cause the cut of the pizza to not go through the crust so a little difficult to eat The Gnocchi was exquisite and will be coming back for more Overall a nice restaurant to dine in, reasonably priced with vegetarian, meat and fish options of pizza and pasta”

“Amazing time in this restaurant, friendly atmosphere and staff, great for the money and the choices of meat and sides ( mains and puddings) were delicious!!! Great carpark around the corner... so you can relax and eat as much as you want! For 2 people we spent £71 which is reasonable for drinks and a 3 course meal. You can also go for a nice walk around the marina once you've eaten! Brilliant!!!”

“This restaurant is an absolute gem that deserves all the praise! From the moment I walked in, the warm and cozy ambiance instantly put me at ease—super inviting for any occasion. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, going out of their way to ensure a smooth dining experience without being intrusive. The food was nothing short of exceptional: the signature main dish was crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, with perfectly balanced seasonings that highlighted the freshness of the ingredients. The side dishes were light and refreshing, complementing the main course beautifully, and even the drinks were a delight—visually appealing with a bright, tangy flavor that cut through the richness perfectly. What’s more, the value for money is unbeatable. Whether you’re catching up with friends or dining alone, this spot hits all the right notes. I’ve already recommended it to everyone I know and can’t wait to come back for round two!”

“So this is my favourite spot in Hampshire for a spicy chicken fillet burger. The fillet itself is huge compared to the bun so you always feel like you’ve got enough chicken to bread ratio. But my partner loves grilled chicken and she used only ever go Nando’s. But now Texas grill is her new favourite and she will only ever have grilled chicken from here”

“Super tasty breakfast for a great price with an amazing view. Not the first time here and definitely not the last one. Highly recommend.”

“Me and a friend booked a table in the late evening for some drinks and it was great! Had a fab time and really impressed as I haven’t seen The Boathouse since it’s been rebuilt. So popular but good music, able to talk, good vibes. Recommend the lychee martini, insane. Thanks to Sissy and Bronwyn for such a warm welcome and being massively attentive to us! And credits to the chef (Rhys?) for saying hello and telling us a bit about the place and food. Superb!”

“Had a fantastic meal here last night with friends, fantastic food and drinks selection.. and our waitress/host Meg was so accommodating nothing was to much trouble for her . Will definitely come again”

“Went there for brunch 11am booked a table in advance, the place is spacious and wasn't to busy, the stuff that serves was excellent and the food wasn't late to come after we ordered the portions are true american style and would go back there again. The kids menu was 2pounds and was llenty of food for a 10 and 7 year old”

“Very nice Afghani food..wonderful taste..friendly staff and reasonable price”

“Great food and the service was lovely. Everyone was so nice! Food came quickly and was delicious!!!!”

“We really loved it! We arrived at 10 and they were closing in half an hour - but stuff was really friendly and cool to take! make! and serve the amazing mea for us! We LOVED it! Meat was super delicious or maybe we were too hungry! Anyway. It’s really cool place to get some food and enjoy yourselves! Ah! Also. Mojito was good as well!”

“Amazing katsu curry and delicious ramen!”

“Quality kebab, great value and top service”

“What a great place for breakfast. You can walk around the nursery and then get a really good breakfast! They do bacon and eggs but also have the most amazing pastries!”

“Great food and good atmosphere. Staff are friendly and helpful. Enjoy our dinner there.”

“I rarely leave reviews, but the food and service at Mexifun were an easy 11/10 — I just had to share! We ordered two quesadillas (one chicken, one pulled pork) and a pulled pork taco, and each dish completely exceeded expectations — especially the pulled pork, which was tender, flavorful, and felt like a true taste of Mexico. Portions were generous, prices were reasonable, and every bite was packed with flavor. On top of that, the shop owner was incredibly friendly and attentive. A wonderful mix of great food, warm hospitality, and genuine care. Highly recommended to anyone in the area!”

“The best kurdish restaurant in southampton!! such good quality food, and range of drinks. the staff are so so friendly and kind and will do anything for you! if you want food kurdish food come here!!!”

“What a Fantastic family run restaurant. The food is exceptional… fresh, flavoursome, plentiful and good value. The ambiance and music are delightful. But what sets it apart from other restaurants is the fabulous staff. They were all so welcoming, helpful and genuinely wanted us to have a wonderful experience, which we certainly did! Special mention to Sumayah, Ramin and Ariz, you are brilliant at your job, thank you for making our date night so fantastic.”

“What a great addition to the Southampton dining scene. A beautifully designed restaurant specialists in cheese/meat boards and fine wine. What I love is the superb staff, friendly service and of course great food. This place can be a place to bring a date, a casual catch up or just a meeting. Whatever brings you here its guaranteed you will stay a while enjoy the wine and chilled beats. The decor is amazing too - the ceiling looks like grass and there is a lovely hand made sign over the bar! There is such a selection of food that you will find something delicious. And even a full vegan alternative so no excuses from anyone not to visit. As for access, the Porter is fully inclusive, handicapped access and I was able to bring my support dog and she was also made to feel like a valued guest. Special thanks to Milo, for always going above and beyond with the service. Highly recommended.”
