  “VERY pricey, but worth it for the quality of meat and the experience. My wife and I went for the caveman steak to share - it was delicious! The butters were fine, but the sauces (beef dripping, and peppercorn) were amazing. It was fun cooking the steak on the hot stone - a great theatrical experience. Our server (Lily) was also great - she was a fellow coeliac like my wife, and put her at ease and walked through all the dietary restrictions. She also gave my wife other local recommendations for gluten free. Overall, a fabulous experience and well worth trying.”

  “Really enjoyed our meal at Mugshot Bristol. The steak was excellent, cooked exactly how we liked it using the hot stone, and the quality of the meat was fantastic. The chips, mushrooms and asparagus were all delicious, and the selection of sauces was a great addition. Generous portions, great atmosphere, and a fun dining experience. We’ll definitely be back!”

  “The steak here was out of this world good. Cooking it yourself on hot stones, with flavoured butters is a great interactive experience and allows you to cook to your preferred temperature. I'll warn anyone ordering the broccoli that this comes with lots of chilli (not on the menu) my dining partner can't have chilli but the exceptional waiting staff were happy to swap this for us without any fuss. Great cocktails and wine too!”

The staff was more than accommodating, the food was delicious with the different butters and sauces to change the taste with every bite. A super night and everyone enjoyed it. Thank you :)”

  “It was literally the best steak dining experience I've had. My wife and I are both keto/carnivore and were able to customise our order very easily. Big thanks. Will 100% be returning.”

  “My boyfriend and I were on holiday in Bristol for the weekend for his birthday and last minute booked a table here. The venue itself is super cool and I cannot express how amazing everything was, the food was beautiful, we had the tenderstem broccoli, bone marrow mash and a ribeye steak, we absolutely loved the concept and had so much fun. On top of that our server Lily was absolutely brilliant, such a lovely and nice girl who gave exemplary service, she gave amazing menu recommendations, and lovely activities to do afterwards. Thank you for such a lovely night Lily and all staff, you were brilliant :)”

  “We have been wanting to go to this place for ages, and we finally had the chance. Omg what a meal. The staff were great, very helpful and chatty, the atmosphere was nice too in this 1920's themed restaurant. The food was another level. Camembert to start baked in a bread roll with red onion jam amazing. I had the fillet steak and my wife the fish of the day which was tuna steak. The theme of the restaurant is the meat/fish comes seared only, then with the hot stones provided you use your choice of butters to cook the meat to your liking. It's was flavour heaven, with a cowboy and a garlic butter. Beef dripping sauce, Mac n cheese and Parmesan chips. If that was my last meal, then what a meal. We cannot wait to go back”

  “Whilst staying in Bristol, I decided to find somewhere to watch rather than the rather dire in house hotel restaurant. After checking for reviews, this eatery was the one that caught my attention. Managed to be seated straight away. After checking the menu where I could have selected multiple courses, everything looked and sounded great. The waitress (Sian) was attentive and knowledgeable, which came in useful as she demonstrated how you prepared your steak using the hot stone that the steak came with. The food was well presented. The steak was delicious and combined with the flavoured butters and sauce it was both theatrical and memorable. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who enjoys a steak and is prepared to participate in the cooking.”

  “My boyfriend absolutely loves this place and decided to take me all the way to Bristol to try it. I was very excited and saw all the hype and good reviews people have given it. However, I felt like the steak was lacking in flavour, and especially the sauce. I tried Beef dripping, wild mushroom, and peppercorn sauces. Unfortunately I wasn’t a fan of any of them, and they didn’t add much, or any, extra flavour to the steak. The butters overpower any beef flavour there might have possibly been. Also tasted very under-salted, or like no salt was added at all. I guess I was not much of a fan of cooking it myself, though I completely admit I wanted to try it. It just took a bit too long to cook it, rather than enjoy it, and no matter how long I cooked it, the steak kept the texture of a rare steak— extremely tender, which sounds good, but it was just way too soft for me. Prior to this, I had pork belly bites as a starter which were absolutely amazing, would definitely recommend. I know a lot of people love this place, but I guess it just wasn’t flavorful enough for me and I wasn’t a fan of the texture. That’s my main complaint. Service was perfect, and the 20’s theme is great too.”
