hello everyone, ok im a huge steak lover and i went to buffalo steakhouse today and was so dissappointed. the biggest steak on the menu was 400g and the sauce i got with mine was disgusting and to top it all the waitress had an attitude. anyhow can someone tell me where i can get a steak the size of a toiletseat and good friendly staff and good food.

thanks in advance

I would have to say shakers on rat-u-thit road, up past cristins on the left, the biggest is also 400g but is very good, i dont eat any lunch if i plan on going there in the evening, and i can eat a lot of food, the sauces you get there are also very good.

oh how i miss them

Shakers 400g steak chips and salad with roquefort sauce and a side of bread..

Thats where I go when I get a meat and tatties craving.. If your not satisfied after that meal your a very big eater !!

Dont know anywhere thats really good for T bones ??

The Pepper-steak in Didis (Soi Sansabai) is Superb

Its not the size of a toilet seat though.. but if you ask them im sure they will make you a big one.

Great steak at "The Islander" in the soi opposite Soi Seadragon.
Ask for the NZ/Australian steak as I don't think the other one is as good.
Very tasty pepper sauce as well. IIRC its about 400baht.

I was also disappointed with Buffalo. The other day (Friday) I had a craving for a burger. Wanted to try Faulty's but it was closed. The double burger at Buffalo was so crap I couldn't even finish it. Shakers was also no good IMO.

But the plank steak (pork) at Buffalo is superb.

If the cholesterol doesnt matter then give the Faulty Towers steak a go - good value too and the (German trained) chef will cook it any way you want -properly.

Best steaks in town at Sams at the holiday Inn...
Good steaks at Karlsons or for exmaple the Belgian Steakhouse (soi La Diva).
Also a very good steak at Flavours (at entrance to Ban Thai).

Ricos Have Good Steak.......

I must admit I haven't even been to Patong since before the tsunami (usually just go to BKK and Patts now - sorry lads), but there used to be a really good French steak house on Sawadirak Road, more or less opposite the Salathai Resort. I think it was called La Boucherie. Really good steaks and they did a great boeuf bourguignon stew with mashed potatoes.

**** me! I'm talking about food again! I'm off to Patts again soon and I hereby resolve to do nothing but drink, do the nasty and write field reports.

Dodger · #11 12-06-2006, 00:54

Agree with IJ on this one, Rico's is the best place for steak I've found so far, the Green Man at Chalong was quite good though.

marc26 · #12 12-06-2006, 21:31

Agree. Very good steak. Good service. And... ehmmm... some very nice waitresses....

Hobbsy · #16 14-06-2006, 13:17

i like Ricos and Harry's, i seem to prefer the Scanno steak houses. I go for planksteaks or pepper sauce with the potato gratin if i need a carb hit.

Shakers - the steak was huge but not great quality and the pepper sauce was like milk with peppercorns in it - vile.

Sam's in Holiday Inn - very very nice but expensive.

Also tried the pepper steak at Red Onion in Karon - v cheap at 280 or so and I got 2 medium sized steaks with decent pepper sauce.

Should have said I tend to like steaks a bit tougher.. Sirloin is always a chewers steak but fuller flavour so I even find Thai domestic beef ok..

Next time try the roquefort !!!

Shakers, the only restaurant were I have sent back a steak. Ordered a tenderloin, medium rare. Received a cut open, extremely well done piece of beef, which was certainly not a tenderloin. Ate there quit a bit but after that, never been back....

I would second 'the Islander' Great steaks and all round food. The owner is English and married to a Thai girl. Been there years.

P.S. also sells Strongbow at good pric
es.

The biggest steak ever i was eating in Kata. When you walk from Kata Center to the back road, there is an Aussie on the right side with a restaurant. I do not remember the name of the restuarant, but the steak was great.
