My friend's birthday lunch treat here as he saw the tarp outside Spot.ph Top 10 steaks in metro after having his valentines day dinner at Van gogh is bipolar. Ok so i was excited to try this steak joint as I really love steak and I dont really expect much if ill based the steak on the price. So anyway we went, surprisingly the place where it's located was where the Gerry's Jeepney's former location.We ordered:Steaks and Eggs - overpriced for its taste and "Steakness" (if there's such a word 😊) served with tons of caramelized onions on top.Beef Gyro w/ cheese - Bland Bland bland. Tasteless and I have this sensitivity with saltiness so it means when i say bland, theres a problem with seasoning. Again generous serving of caramelized onions on few underseasoned beef chunks. Why did i order with cheese??? Cannot taste the cheese at all!Pomodoro - served in an aluminum baking tray with pita slices as their garlinc bread! Again underseasoned, plating?? Nah!Condimemts you have to pay, tables are not presentable (chipping,dented, wobbly) , toilet.... sink is disgusting, moldy.. there.Ok, so why belong to top 10 steaks in metro?? There are other places that serves good steaks some even cheaper than here with better ambiance. Cleanliness also reflects on how they prepare their food and the place itself. If they cant clean their restroom and buy nice presentable tables ( to think their price is not really worth the taste, presentation and serving size) how are they in the kitchen?? I'll give them 2.0 only for the potato chips sides and this is the only food i genuinely enjoyed 😊. Will go back and recommend? Nope, sorry.. not bad mouthing this joint but honestly aint worth a try.

We tried the solo steak and chicken breast steak, both failed. Chicken was tasteless and lost its juice. A simple boiled chicken with salt taste much better. Side veggie is the same. As for the overpriced steak, a food court steak is way tastier. We ran to the nearest panciteria to immediately forget this bad experience.

Not recommended, we went there bec. it was featured at "ang pinaka", we tried the Kingkong steak which is salty as hell, the beef was indeed juicy and cooked well but the flavor was just sad.The dish is all over the plate, stuffed by so many onions with 2 eggs and some bacon plus a salty chips on top. Its not supposed to be called kingkong steak it should be called bypass steak coz for sure if the oilyness of the 2 eggs and bacon will not kill you the saltiness will.The chairs are wobbly, the sauce given to us is bland, the veg. no flavor, ambiance is ok, but the service is so slow they even forget our other order. I will not come back there.
