If you want to enjoy a really good steak, you should be willing to pay a large fee at 1 of the 5 steak restaurants in Hanoi below.
1. El Gaucho Argentinian Steakhouse
It has been present in Vietnam for 10 years, but so far El Gaucho still retains the position of the top restaurant.
Steak in El Gaucho is delicious without a table. Certified Angus Beef is soft but firm, USDA Prime rib eye melts in your mouth like a scrumptious piece of butter. The outside is almost next to the standard card, the inside is bright pink, when cut out, you can see the fresh and fragrant water. The spices are marinated moderately, absorbed evenly from the inside out. You also don't need to sprinkle elaborate sauce. Serve meat with grilled garlic for the most original flavor.
Even the way the restaurant treats the food is very thoughtful. There is always a candle under the plate to keep it hot, and the staff cuts each slice firmly. You can eat and drink wine, and stop comfortably to chat without worrying about the food getting cold.
At the end of the meal, the restaurant will give you a glass of Caramel vodka. That will be the moment you realize that this will be your favorite place both in terms of quality and attention to detail.

3. La Bête Steakhouse
The "Ox-up" steak is what makes La Bête most famous. As soon as you step on the second floor of the restaurant, you can see all kinds of dried meat display cabinets.
At La Bête, not all meats are suitable for aging. Only those with the most perfect ratio of fat and lean texture, along with just enough outer fat to keep the meat inside intact, are chosen, but mainly Black Angus and Wagyu. The aged meat is seasoned with spices and Himalayan salt and then put in a special storage cabinet. In this special type of cabinet, the meat is illuminated and ensures the factors of time, temperature, humidity, air circulation.
After being processed, the meat is crispy on the outside and juicy, tender and fragrant on the inside, medium-rare. The accompanying vegetables are also very delicious because of the standard knife and fire technique.
Prices at La Bête are also more affordable than El Gaucho and French Grill. Currently, the restaurant has a combo of 1,200,000 VND including 35-day-old Hereford Ribeye and other accessories.

4. Jacksons Steakhouse
Coming to Jackson Steakhouse to choose NZ beef or Wagyu will never disappoint. The meat is tender, lightly marinated by hand, so the taste of meat is very clear. The ingredients themselves are of high quality, so the restaurant does not need to "magicize" with many spices. When eating, dip with the gravy itself flowing out, accompanied by grilled cherry tomatoes, potatoes, mushrooms. You can choose to add garlic butter sauce or green pepper for extra flavor. The restaurant's way of marinating and adding richness to the sauce is quite clever. Thus, you can easily adjust the dish to your taste buds.
The price of the Jacksons is naturally not low. However, the restaurant has a 3-course lunch set that changes regularly and costs only about 400,000 VND/person. An affordable and economical option to try, right?

5. La Fiorentina
La Fiorentina is an Italian-style steakhouse. The meat is pre-marinated with pepper and salt, grilled over charcoal, scorched on the outside and pinkish on the inside. No sauce, only with granulated salt, yellow lime and a little simple lettuce, but very delicious.
To have that delicious taste, La Fiorentina keeps the tradition of the Italians. The T-bone must be thick enough, weighing from 1 to 1.2 kg, so that when processed, it creates a feeling of being in the eyes and mouth. All your focus is also on that tender and fragrant piece of meat, not scattered by countless other accessories. For one thing, you are required to eat at the rare/medium-rare level because otherwise, the meat will be very difficult to chew.
Sitting outside the restaurant's spacious grounds, you can see your steak being sizzled. The weather in Hanoi has turned cool and beautiful like this, adding a bottle of Chianti wine, waiting for the delicious food to be served again is wonderful.
- Address: 20 Dang Thai Mai, Quang An, Tay Ho, Hanoi.
- Opening Hours: 18:00 - 22:00
- Price: 700,000 - 1,500,000 VND
