About

Found just moments from Bank Station, Goodman City is a favourite for steak-focused dining, business lunches, and post-work catch-ups over great-quality dishes in a polished setting. Service is personal and warm, with an atmosphere that champions comfort and conviviality. The focus here is on well-sourced meats, looking to British farmers using best practices to supply great, responsibly reared beef.

Interiors follow Goodman’s signature look: dark timber panelling, deep-buttoned leather booths, intimate two-top tables, and larger seating for groups. Black and white photography adorns the walls, while hanging lights create a softly-lit atmosphere to complement a rich menu focused on quality.

The cornerstone of the Goodman City menu is ‘The Cut’, a daily specials board which spotlights cuts of meat chosen by the chefs each day from the kitchen’s ageing room. Only the best make ‘The Cut’. Though subject to change, guests can expect to see British beef aged for 30 or 60 days, and priced by the gram. Previous features in the rotating selection have included Belted Galloway T-bone, wing rib, and Hereford bone-in ribeye.

Alongside the specials, the à la carte menu offers further steak options, including fillet, sirloin, and Goodman’s signature ribeye, which comes in at a whopping 400 grams. All steaks are cooked over charcoal and served with sauces such as peppercorn, chimichurri, or bearnaise.

And, if you’re not in the mood for steak, you’ll find other options spanning burgers, turbot on the bone, and grilled corn-fed chicken. There’s also a popular lunch menu, which we think is motivation enough to escape the office for an hour (or two). Starters, too, are worth their salt. Expect options like prawn tempura with avocado, chipotle and gochujang mayo and Irish steak tartare. As for drinks, expect an extensive wine list with plenty of steak-friendly options from renowned Old and New World regions, alongside Champagne for celebratory moments, and premium cocktails.

Tim Delaney

Executive Chef

Tim Delaney is the executive chef across Goodman and Beast, a long-standing leader known for his unwavering focus on quality and consistency – and for constantly searching out the next exceptional beef to join the Goodman lineup. With roots in Michelin-level cooking, five-star hotels, and a long stint at the Royal Automobile Club, he brings deep experience and a people-first, family-company mindset to every service. Off-duty, his order is firmly set: prawn tempura (even if he hates cooking it), ribeye – now Australian over U.S. – plus mac & cheese and cheesecake… and, controversially, no chips.

The Best Steak Restaurant in the City
You can't do much wrong with Goodman City, the steak is amazing, the service is consistent and to very high standards, you really feel looked after. The food & drinks from the steak to the wine their pair your meat with is carefully selected and to high quality. You HAVE to visit this restaurant!

Fantastic steak place
I was texting my boyfriend saying 'we have to go here' before I'd even finished my main, I loved it that much. Probably the best steak I've had in London! I had such a good evening out here. The choice of steaks is very extensive and my choice, the fillet, was fantastic, absolutely faultless. I recommend you get the lobster tails too. I sometimes find in steak places that offer lobster that it can be a little secondary to the steak but that wasn't the case here. The sides are divine too, I really recommend the mac and cheese. My dessert, a chocolate and banana mousse was good but nothing to shout about. Who cares? You're there for the meat. Service was friendly and very knowledgeable, our waiter made us feel very welcome and taken care of. Surroundings are very City old school - all intimate, dark and woody, I loved it. There are very few places I think 'I must come back here ASAP' but this is one of the them. Just go!

Reliable steak house
A reliable New-York-inspired steakhouse, with a relatively good value lunch menu option.

The combination of a fantastic selection of beef and the attentive and friendly staff makes this experience an island of excellence in a sea of mediocrity served up in the City

I rate Goodman over many of the other steak restaurants in the City, however this time the fillet steak was not up to scratch. A rare slightly disappointing lunch for once.

City steak on your plate!
Goodman does steak very well. Great for city business lunches and after work meet ups with friends. The question for me is usually Hawksmoor Vs. Goodman in the city. Goodman does not dissapoint… They claim they source the best meat ‘We make life difficult for ourselves, to make sure we bring the best to you’ and I ordered the FILLET (400G) £45 and was very satified with the flavours the steak delivered on. The staff were knowledgeable, my fellow diners looked at ease, the wines to compliment really did and all in all you can't go wrong with Goodman.

If it's meat (and steaks in particular) you're after you will come to the right place. In my view up there with hawksmoor in terms of best steaks in town. Very good service and a buzzing atmosphere at this city outpost
