    We had a wonderful meal, the steaks were beautifully cooked, sides were great and the Dulce de Lecce cheesecake is to die for. Great service, too! 8 thumbs up from four hungry Dutch guys.

    Great food as always and a friendly welcome. Only thing that spoiled the experience this time was being rushed out of the restaurant. Dessert menu didn't turn up, just the bill which we hadn't requested. We hadn't even reached the end of the nominal two hour slot you are allowed.

    Five of us had ribeye or fillet steak. The steaks were perfectly cooked, the starters before were amazing and the wine recommendations superb!

    The server forgot our order, we had to remind them after waiting for an hour for our food. Then they rushed our food so one of the steaks was massively undercooked and inedible. Then the waitress poured white wine in our glasses of red wine, not even realizing her mistake and encouraging us to drink it anyway. Overall it was a mess.

    Excellent food, steak was cooked perfectly and the side dishes were tasty. The staff were friendly from start to finish. Bife is definitely a restaurant I would recommend.
