The Butcher Grill

You'll smell the char from the pavement before you even push through the door on Main Street. Inside, it's all exposed brick and dark wood - the kind of place that knows exactly what it does well and doesn't try to be anything else. The open kitchen lets you watch your ribeye get the treatment it deserves, while the dining room hums with the satisfied chatter of people who've just discovered their new favourite spot for a proper steak. The menu reads like a love letter to good beef, with dry-aged cuts that justify every euro of that three-figure price tag. Sunday lunch service is a clever touch in an area where most decent spots shut down for the day. Book ahead - Ranelagh locals have already figured out this place is the real deal.
