Corner Grill House в Йорку

It's the very first time I'd ever been to the Corner Grill House and it certainly won't be the last... INCREDIBLE!! I wanted to try a steak place in York, before heading home. I had looked up another, but decided on this one instead. For some reason, I went to the wrong one (me not paying attention!) So I began to make my way to the Corner Grill House and rang up, to let them know I'd be running late, being informed by one of the ladies on the phone, who was very pleasant, that this wasn't a problem at all. Finally made it and stepping inside, the atmosphere was superb and the restaurant itself was very clean and spacious. When I went, there were very few people in which was nice, as it meant it wasn't too busy or noisy. I was greeted by a friendly member of staff, and shown to my table. I had time to look over the menu, before deciding on what to have. One of the waitresses who came over to take my order, was kind enough to tell me about the two and three course options, with me possibly having a dessert. However, I wanted to try the truffle and parmesan fries, so decided to give those set meals a miss this time. I ended up going for the 8 oz Bravette steak, with the truffle and parmesan fries, along with a side order of garlic sautéed king prawns and a blue cheese sauce. While waiting for my food, I was admiring all the wine bottles lined up and the "olive tree" decoration, fabulous decor! When the food came out... WOW! I was super impressed. You get a LOT for your money, that's for sure! At first, I winced a little at £8.00 for a side of the garlic sautéed king prawns, thinking I'd only be getting about five or six. Oh no no, there were PLENTY of king prawns, so the £8.00 price is well-justified in my opinion!! The steak was a pretty big piece, a nice chunk with flavour, alongside the flavourful truffle and parmesan fries. There was also half a tomato and a red onion, which came as standard with the steaks. It was delicious from the very first bite, right down to the last. I was hoping to have tried one of their desserts, but the food was super filling so didn't need one in the end! The only thing was, that my steak could have been done a little bit more, as it was a bit more red than I normally have it. However it was a tasty piece of steak nonetheless, and worth the price. Speaking of, all that came to £46.53 which, in my opinion, is damn good value for money considering all that I had. There is a discretionary 10% service charge, which was added to the bill. But I didn't mind that at all, as the waitresses earned it giving excellent customer service and the chefs, serving up delicious food. I'm sure if you didn't want this added, the staff would take it off for you though, no problem. What I wanted to point out, was how friendly and supportive all the staff seemed, towards a new waitress that was learning the ropes. They seemed really encouraging and helpful, which is how it should be, so hats off to them for their professionalism and cre...
