  “Was so good the first time, we had to have it twice. The menu was so affordable and the quality of the food was not what I had expected. It was so good, I’m glad the management kept it at those prices. We came back an hour half before closing and there was still a long line. Luckily, the service was quick and other guests did not take a long time to leave. Overall, a really pleasant experience!”

  “Would definitely recommend a visit. Great food and service, very attentive and welcoming staff who made the experience great. Deserts were also incredible! Only slight downside was some tables and the areas for 2 people can feel a little crowded or squashed. But not enough of an issue not to visit! (update 20th July 2026) Service has gone downhill terribly here. Such a bad experience this Saturday for my daughters birthday. Given a table at the bar while waiting for table, no drinks orders taken while at bar. When ordering desserts we asked for one each, to be told not needed because two come with icecream anyways. Then they arrived and ice cream was completely melted all over as pictures show. They genuinely couldn't care anymore, main meal is tasty but won't be going back anymore. Far better steaks available in London with immensely better staff.”

  “had a very disappointing experience at this restaurant. While eating my meal, I found what appeared to be an insect in the salad, which completely ruined my appetite. This is a serious hygiene issue and made me question the cleanliness of the kitchen and food preparation. I informed the staff, but I expected much better standards. I hope the restaurant improves its food safety and quality control so this doesn’t happen to anyone else.”

  “3.75/5 This one didn’t quite live up to the tiktok hype for me. The sauce was okay but I asked for my ribeye steak medium and it was more like rare, I was so hungry I started eating it before I realised. The portion size for the price was fantastic, very filling. I did find the bread a bit hard, after a while my teeth started to hurt from all the chewing. The fries on the other hand was perfectly crispy. The molten chocolate cake was the let down. It was big, but too big to be enjoyably eaten by one person. There was way too much molten chocolate to the outer cake ratio, leaving a sickly puddle on the plate. I would’ve loved a bigger scoop of ice scream to balance it out. It also tasted like cheap sugary chocolate, not the rich dark chocolate you’d expect from a molten cake. Our server was lovely though and generally the service was prompt and efficient.”

  “Visited swiss butter late on a tuesday evening and was surprised to see the place was a little busy. We were asked to wait for around 7-8 min outside before being shown to a table. The energy about the place was quite lively although the staff looked like they had had a long day, keeping interactions to a bare minimum. I went for the fillet steak and salmon as an added protien on the side. I requested the steak medium but it came out nearer well done than medium - note to self: order a little less done than requested as it continues to cook in the hot plate it is served in along with the butter toast. Fried were nice and fresh and salad was also pretty fresh. The bread however seemed to have been pre sliced and toasted and was almost on the verge of going hard. But for £19.99 in Holborn, I dont think i could complain. The salmon was a smaller portion than expected but was pretty ok, albeit a little over cooked again. For dessert we went for their molten chocolate cake which wasnt as rich as I expected - but this was a good thing. The ocean cream cut through the rich chocolateyness well. All in all a decent meal, nothing to blow you out of the water. Im glad I visited. Im not sure if id be in a hurry to return.”

  “We recently visited Swiss Butter in Holborn and had a really great experience. The service was excellent we were served by Mubashra, who was incredibly welcoming, attentive, and made sure we felt well looked after throughout. They were also very considerate of dietary requirements, taking the time to check and accommodate where needed. The steak was absolutely delicious, and we really appreciated the different chip options available. The sauce was a standout as well full of flavour and really complemented the meal.Hygiene was to a top standard. The overall environment and vibe were lovely too, making it a very enjoyable dining experience. Would definitely recommend!”

  “We had an absolutely fantastic dinner at Swiss Butter, what an experience! The Tomahawk steak was on another level entirely, perfectly cooked and packed with flavour. We also tried the beef fillet and the ribeye, and both were incredibly tender and juicy. Everything was done to perfection, and the service was just as impressive, attentive, warm, and spot on throughout the evening. Safe to say, we’ll definitely be coming back for more.”

  “Visited Swiss Butter with friends and had an excellent experience. From the moment we arrived, the service stood out, big thanks to Ali, Zeshan (manager at the door), and Raj for being so welcoming and attentive. We ordered the SB ribeye steaks platter, chicken steaks, and beef steaks, along with lemonade and ginger drinks. Everything was cooked perfectly and full of flavour. Honestly, they serve some of the best steaks in London, juicy, tender, and seasoned just right. We really enjoyed our meal and the overall atmosphere. I’ll definitely be visiting again and highly recommend this place!”

  “Outstanding service and a special thanks to the manager Thala who did an amazing job managing the queue. Although we waited about 30 minutes, it was very quick and quiet impressive how they got through so many customers so quickly. Mrs went for the salmon which was actually really nice. I went for the ribeye which was good overall. The molten chocolate cake stole the show though!”

  “I can understand why the queues are always so long! For £20, you get a choice of protein, sauce, fries, bread and salad - there aren’t many places in London where £20 gets you this far. Be warned though, the queues are quite long - we had to queue for around 45 minutes around 6pm on a Wednesday. Ordered the ribeye steak, which was sizeable and cooked to a medium rare. Good meaty flavour overall, some parts were a bit chewier but you can’t really complain for the price. I was expecting a tiny steak but this pleasantly surprised me. The sauce it was served with was salty, mustardy and peppery and was nice to dip everything in, but it was lacking some richness (or some butter). If you were expecting something like the L’Entrecote green sauce then you’d be disappointed. The fries were tasty but nothing special - they tasted like standard oven fries that were deep fried. Still, they were hot and crispy and went nicely with the steak sauce. Salad was fresh but the dressing might be too vinegary for some. Asked for brown bread and received white bread, but I wasn’t too bothered. You can skip the molten lava cake - it’s definitely a generous portion and can be easily shared between two people, however it was floury and lacked richness and deep chocolate flavour. I would visit again if in the area, and if the queue was 10 mins long, max!”
