Stake Your Life on These 6 Restaurants for the Best Steak in Town!

Everyone craves a perfectly cooked steak that your knife slices through like butter and any restaurant worth its salt can stake their reputation on delivering just that on the plate.

Here are six venues where steak rules the house and there’s no beef about how you want it cooked:

Volcanos Steakhouse on Polding Street in Wetherill Park is renowned as one of the best steakhouses in Sydney and a 100% halal restaurant. Located in the heart of Stockland Shopping Centre, this restaurant is the new go-to for meat enthusiasts with a dry-aged store room on show for all to see and arched booths with red velvet banquette seating creating a chilled-out vibe to peruse a menu featuring dry-aged steaks and premium Wagyu.

 

Take your dining experience to a new level with plates like a tomahawk dry-aged steak, served with hot lava sauce, steakhouse fries and a garden salad; or chow down on slow-cooked beef short ribs with wings, mash and seasonal vegetables.

Exclusively located at Crowne Plaza Sydney Burwood, Onyx Grill is a premium dining destination inspired by the surrounding environment and Modern Australian cuisine. Situated on Burwood Road, this open-fire restaurant boasts wooden ceilings, black velvet banquette seating, leather dining chairs and intimate tables, ideal for an intimate rendezvous with someone special.

Start with beef tartare, capers, eschalots, cornichons, egg yolk, horseradish cream and lavash, then slice your knife into perfectly cooked Wagyu rump with buttermilk pomme purée and steamed seasonal greens on the side; those not into steak can opt for chicken supreme with shiso, grapes and jus gras.

For the best steak in town, head to 12 Mile Steakhouse on Main Road in Granton. Housed in The York Hotel, this well-loved local watering hole has a spacious alfresco area with sandstone walls, market umbrellas and barbeques; while indoors is the place to catch up with the locals at the bar over an ice-cold ale and live sport.

 

Pan-fried garlic prawns tempt to start in white wine cream sauce, with rice and salad; while steak is the name of the game for the main, think Porterhouse cooked to order, with chips, seasonal vegetables and pepper sauce, or a Cape Grim T-bone with chips, salad and mushroom sauce.

Bask in an interactive dining experience with décor designed to create a unique ambience for each meal at Firewater Grille on St Georges Terrace in Perth's CBD. Located on the lobby level of the Duxton Hotel, Firewater is an elegant and stylish addition to not only the hotel but also the city's dining scene with its retro-style cocktail bar and spacious restaurant area.

 

Dine at night by the cascading water feature and peruse an à la carte menu boasting entrées of Shark Bay scallops, asparagus confit, semi-dried cherry tomatoes, gremolata and fine leaves; followed by Black Angus striploin, best served medium-rare with red wine jus, truffle butter potato mash, steamed seasonal vegetables and Brussels sprouts.

Whether it is dinner with the family or a bite to eat while you watch the footy, Katherine Country Club Bistro on Pearce Street delivers on all fronts. Backing onto a nine-hole golf course and complemented by a tropical beer garden, this welcoming dining spot is the place to head to after a game of lawn bowls to refresh and replenish.

 

Settle in with an icy beer to beat the NT heat and devour a rump steak cooked to your liking, with Dianne sauce, mash and vegetables; or opt for bistro classics such as grilled pork sausages with mash, vegetables and onion gravy, finish decadently with sticky date pudding, ice cream and caramel sauce.

Bull & Bell Steakhouse on Banna Avenue in Griffith is a European-style restaurant with a farm-to-table philosophy celebrating the abundance of beautiful produce the Riverina region has to offer. Experience a carnivorous journey packed with flavour and indulgence like never before in spacious surrounds of leather circular chairs, plush blue carpeting and a marble open kitchen counter.

 

Find a dry-aged steak selection which is locally sourced, on display in the restaurant and prepared in a stunning open kitchen; choose plates like Black Gully Angus eye fillet, seasoned with sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper, served with lemon, chimichurri sauce, chips and salad.
