Miller and Carter  Smiley not been to the one in Swindon but I've been elsewhere and it's a decent steakhouse.

I went to a Miller and Carter in Stoke and enjoyed it, but had overlooked it in all honesty.

I have a feeling this will end up being our destination.

Not thought of there. Good steak then?

El Torro used to be good for a steak, also does Tapas (assuming it still does).
The new place is the same holding company as Harvester which was in there before, but the menu looks good.

Now, if you were where I am the list would be a bit longer!

El Torro is shut now. The venue is now a himilayan restaurant.

Personally I think you are better off hitting the butchers and getting a good bit of rib eye and doing it yourself. Light up the bbq, blazing hot coals, 6 minutes over the heat turning every 60 seconds. Jobs a good un.

Went to Miller & Carter, had the Rib Eye which is £25.  It was alright, but not a £25 steak.  I might have had it on a bad night for them though...

However, the beef dripping steak sauce is mental, and worth the £25 alone...  Really good, make sure you have that and you will not be disapointed..

£25 for a steak in a tarted up Harvester. Fucking hell.

We used to go for a pre-match pint in the Grove.

Don't think the M&C will be visited as often, but I do love a steak so will be giving it a whirl.
