7 London steak restaurants have been named in the 101 best in the world for 2025
Well, what do you know, it's that time of year again. No, not get-overly-excited-about-the-promise-of-a- mini-heatwave time, but the time when a shadowy meat body announces the 101 Best Steak Restaurants in the World for 2025.
The list of the finest steakhouses known to humanity includes seven joints in London, with the top rated London location named as Ibai in Farringdon. Ibai just missed out on the top 10 (it came 11th), with the ranking praising the restaurant as a 'celebration of exceptional beef, open-fire cooking and bold, rustic elegance'.
Of the steak menu, which is centred around Galician blond beef, the ranking said: 'These cuts, including T-bone, sirloin and rib, are known for their deep, mature flavours and are grilled to perfection over a custom-built charcoal grill.' Ibai places third in Time Out's list of the best steak restaurants in London.
The other London restaurants to make the cut are Hawskmoor Air Street (at number 23), Brat (24), Lutyens Grill (at 39, a whole 35 places up on its placement last year), Aragawa in Mayfair (at 41, down from 28th in 2024), Soho gastropub The Devonshire (70) and Guinea Grill in Mayfair (89).
And what about number one? That would be Parrilla Don Julio in Buenos Aires, which kept its crown from 2024.
