July 13th 17:00. The interior was spacious, quiet, and stylish. The menu offered a variety of dishes beyond just steak. The steak itself was tender and juicy. Featuring a nice balance of lean meat and just the right amount of fat. The garlic butter steak sauce in particular, paired perfectly with both the steak and the chips.
Great location, super service. Luke warm welcome and the steak and chips, a rib eye, was expensive at £33 and quite average. My waitress was excellent, Yui, very professional and hands off, yet attentive and engaging. I’ll definitely return, they have a good 2 and 3 course special, which I should have chosen in the first place.
Very good experience at The Archduke, just a short walk from Waterloo Station. The location is truly unique, set beneath the railway arches with exposed brick walls and vaulted ceilings that create a distinctive and welcoming atmosphere. Despite the trains passing overhead, the noise is never intrusive and conversation remains easy. We tried the burger, fish & chips, and other meat dishes. While the fish & chips was enjoyable, the real highlights were the burger and the meat. The burger was served without excessive sauces, allowing the quality and flavour of the beef to stand out. A great choice for those looking for good food in a memorable London setting.
Delightful nexpected find. Piano bar, cocktails, juicy steak followed by cheeky deserts.All a 2 minute walk from Waterloo station.... Lovely ambience, what's not to like
