Ah, steak. There’s truly no better dish to have when it comes to spicing up a date night. Despite being a famous dish, it’s actually not that easy to execute when it comes to cooking it. When cooked to perfection, the steak should melt like butter in your mouth and exude incredible flavours. And while most of us will try to make this in the comfort of our own homes, there’s no denying the skill and ambiance that comes with dining at steakhouses. With this, we’re introducing you to some of the best steakhouses for a romantic dinner. Trust us when we say, these steakhouses are definitely worth the visit.

The Best Steaks in KL & Selangor

1. Monroe @ Kloe Hotel

We confess; this isn’t a steakhouse per se, but the interior is so adorable, this would actually make for a cute date. Tucked in the cosy Kloe Hotel is Monroe, a contemporary diner that takes inspiration from LA cafes and diners. Aside from the Instagrammable interior, Monroe serves up some of the best American comfort food in town. Furthermore, it’s also one of the top steakhouses for a romantic dinner! That’s right, Monroe offers amazing steak dishes that will truly make your mouth water. In their dinner menu, you’ll find the Angus Rib Eye, served with chipotle butter, fries, and a salad. However, if you’re planning to pay a visit during the day, then try the Steak and Eggs. It makes for a really sumptuous and hearty breakfast, giving your date that unexpected flair of whimsy.

5. Grub By Ahong & Friends

Grub By Ahong & Friends is probably one of the best steakhouses for a romantic dinner in Petaling Jaya. Despite the affordable price, the steaks here are actually crazy amazing, if we do say so ourselves. We’ve been here a couple of times and are always incredibly satisfied with any cut we order. Furthermore, they are not stingy when it comes to their sides as well. However, the sides are definitely on the more basic side, with mashed potatoes and a simple garden salad. But we’re alright with that as the highlight is ultimately the steak itself. And we’re always mindblown whenever we visit Grub.

At Vantador, you’ll find steaks that have been hung in coolers for 30 days or more to enable the moisture to evaporate, resulting in a buttery, rich flavour and texture. Truly, it’s the place to go to for premium dry-aged steaks, making them one of the best steakhouses for a romantic dinner. You can get everything from dry-aged Wagyu, Angus, Australian beef and more. In addition, because the meat loses weight due to dehydration and must be cut off its entirely dried skin, it is more expensive than wet-ageing. So do expect to splurge a little when visiting this hotspot.
