Bidrage med feedbackThe environment here is comfortable and in oasis style. We tried the 8oz Rib Eye Steak and Pan Fried Fish Fillet. Both had a great texture and taste, but I love the Fish more, It’s a bit crispy outside and juicy inside. The mushroom cream sauce matched perfectly with the greens, really good! We also had a smoothie Salted Caramel Goodness. Salt and Caramel is just the best combination, worth trying!
I ordered 16 oz medium rib-eye steak, which was large but the edge was too chewy so that I had to cut much away. My steak should be medium but it looked medium rare and burn outside. The quality of the steak itself wasn't bad but I wonder it could have been better treated. The environment is fine for friend gathering.
Let 's begin with the atmosphere. The location 's atmosphere was a mess. The moment you walk in, you 're greeted with 2019 's top 100 pop hits playing in the background, followed by confused decoration that screams 'beach grill party ' with a dash of modern simplicity to spice things up. The lighting sat in a twilight zone of being neither quite dark enough nor bright enough, creating a muddy lighting atmosphere. Finally, the placement mats were terrible. For a restaurant that seemingly wants to be serious, their placement mats were paper with their menu printed on it. Not exactly fancy. To say the least, the atmosphere was anxiety inducing. Service was subpar. For the price you 're paying, you deserve much better. The staff was attentive but not engaging. Not once did they ask if the food was alright. There are plenty of restaurants in Hong Kong with much better service for a much smaller price tag. Now let 's get to the food. It was extremely disappointing . My girlfriend and I ordered a set dinner menu, two a-la-carte items, and two drinks for 893 HKD. We ordered the Parma Ham Quinoa Salad, the Angus Ribeye Steak, the Beef Cheek, the Truffle Fries, and a Blueberry Cheese Cake (supposedly the cake of the day). The Parma Ham Quinoa Salad was what you would expect a salad to be if you ordered it in airline economy seating. There was two strips of parma ham, a teaspoon of quinoa, and a tonne of vinaigrette with mixed veggies. Come to think of it, the Cathay Pacific quinoa salad tastes much better than this mess. This dish was way out of balance. From my understanding, the chef probably doused the vegetables in vinaigrette understanding that, if not, the salad would have no flavours. The Angus Rib Eye was alright, nothing special. The chef couldn 't get medium rare correct, and the steak came out cold. I don 't think it 's worth its set dinner price of $408 at all. The black truffle potato puree, the chimichurri, and the red wine beef jus were a let down. The black truffle puree tasted like instant mash potato, with the slightest hint of truffle flavouring, and the chimichurri and red wine beef jus tasted like it came out of the storage. The beef cheek was much better than the steak, but you can 't really go wrong with beef cheek. Still nothing special. There were no unique flavours, the only flavour in the palette was degrees of saltiness. The Truffle Fries were by far the most disappointing truffle fries I 've had. To be fair it was $48 dollars but still it was disappointing. McDonald 's does a better truffle fries with their shake shake powder than this place. There was basically no truffle flavour in the fries at all. Not to mention, the truffle fries were paired with ketchup. Whatever truffle flavour there was with their fries were annihilated the moment they were paired with ketchup. My suggestion to the Grill Room is, please rename the dish to just 'Fries '. That way you will be disappointing less people. Finally, there 's the cheesecake. Again, lacklustre. Probably not made in-house. Not very fresh for a 'cake of the day '. Overall, very disappointed. Would not suggest this restaurant if you take food seriously, or if you take your money seriously. If you 're looking to throw some money into the sea, you could come here. If you want a better experience for a similar price I would rather you go visit Hue in the Hong Kong Museum of Art. If you want a similar experience for a cheaper price, you 're better off going to your local Pokka Cafe, at least your expectations will match the price.
So delicious! I really did not expect the food quality to be so good, from start to dessert was full of taste and they can taste the quality from fresh ingredients. we ordered the dinner set for 2, as there is a current discount and the portions were exactly right. the steak was slightly fat, but the middle cook was cooked to perfection. service was amazing and didn't have to wait long, would recommend this place and I would definitely come back here.
Discovered that there was another branch of The Grill Room when I was eating in the area recently. Ended up going here one night when it was pouring with rain as soon as I got out of the MTR exit so luckily this restaurant was nearby. Started with mocktails and I had the salted caramel milkshake again because I love this drink and the amount of cream that is piled on top. I also had the slowed cooked salmon for the third time which proves to be another good dish here. It was lovely and pink in the middle complemented by the dressing. Ordered the ribs as it looked so damn good when someone opposite was eating it. I am so glad I got them as well as it was smothered in a tangy smokey bbq sauce while the ribs were tender and meaty. For carbs finished with the beef ragu linguine which was topped with chunks of beef and the pasta was very appetizing as the sauce was very punchy. WILL BE CHECKING OUT THEIR NEW RESTAURANT SOON AS PROMISED! CANT WAIT TO SEE JY.
