STK is an internationally-known steak house with locations all over the world, from Dubai and Mexico to Texas and London. The Stratford London branch is located in a suave, four-star hotel - The Gantry London - and offers a sleek dining experience with industrial-style decor and towering floor-to-ceiling windows with views across the capital's skyline.
The concept hinges on classic American fare with a modern twist. Describing itself as 'vibe dining' at its best, guests can expect live DJs and buzzy events throughout the year, including a killer happy hour and 'Patio Season'.
In terms of the menu, expect mouth-watering dishes which revolve around an impressive range of steaks. To start, there's a selection of fresh, tasty small plates such as baby gem ceaser salad with crunchy focaccia and parmesan, yellowfin tuna tartare and crispy calamari. Another idea for a pre-meal delight would be to try something from the raw bar. This is also ideal if you're not a huge meat eater but fancy coming along for the 'vibes' and to take advantage of the innovative selection of sea and shellfish on offer.
Look out for Dorset dressed crab with wasabi mayo, ceviche with ponzu tiger's milk and citrus tobiko and Jalapeno pickled shrimp with cocktail sauce. While main courses feature the likes of roasted lamb rack, lobster linguine and turbot fish and chips - and that's before you've got to the steak!
If, thanks to the name, this is the section you were waiting for, you'll have to make your choice between the likes of sirlion, Wagyu Hander, New York strip, ribeye and fillet. Steaks are divided into size, occasionally location and there's even a whole section just for butters - imagine lobster, truffle and wagyu butter slathered across your steak. In addition to this, there's a whole range of toppings such as crab and parmesan crust or smoked bacon and blue cheese, as well as sauces such as red wine or the signature STK sauce.
