Lawry's

One of the slightly higher end steak houses in Singapore, Lawry's steaks are delicious and you get to choose from a variety of cuts depending on how large your appetite is. Warning: Their medium-rare doneness can be rarer than usual so you might wish to up it to medium if you don't like your steak too red. Order a steak or indeed, any of the mains and it comes with their famous spinning bowl Caesar salad and Yorkshire pudding. The salad is nice and their method of preparation gives the dish a nice theatrical touch, however, it would be better if more cherry tomatoes could be give. Only a mere 2 halves of a cherry tomato (i.e. 1) is allocated to each plate unless you ask for more. This I find a tad measly. The Yorkshire pudding is fluffy and soaks up the steak and mash potato gravies well.

This posh restaurant served really nice prime ribs. But I am also interested to have the salad here too, which are equally delicious! The sliced lettcues, tomatoes and onions are very fresh and crunchy. Not much dipping sauce has been provided for this salad, which you will be able to taste the natural goodness from the vegetables. The long garlic bread is also toasted till really crunchy and full of the strong fragrant from the garlic spread used on it.

Looking for a place to indulge in good food where you can unwind and relax on a lazy afternoon? Look no further - Lawry's is your perfect choice! Their afternoon tea is only priced at $15/pax, subjected to 10% service charge and 7% GST. FOODThe menu

The afternoon tea comes in 2 parts: 1 savory + 1 sweet + Tea/Coffee/drinks/jucies. I went with 2 other friends for tea, and we ordered the following items:

SAVORYA sandwich with cheese and egg filling. Though it's just like any other sandwich sold outside, it just taste extra delicious! In this dish, the tiny pieces of beef is being rolled up and wrapped around by the thin yet long slice of egg. It has a sauce for you to dip the roll up, for that extra tantalizing taste. It's quite filling for one person as it's too meaty.This is a prawn pizza. I love the crust as it's thin and crispy!

SWEETSThis trifle comes in strawberry flavour. It's soft and spongy, but taste rather sweet. Quite refreshing after a bite of it.This bread pudding comes with a vanilla ice-cream and cherry seated on top of it. It's quite soft and tasty!Chocolate brownie - my favourite of all sweets! It's quite chocolaty and love the combination of brownie and ice-cream.. It's always awesome!

SERVICE
The service staffs are very polite and efficient in clearing plates. However, they tend to linger around your seats or stand there and look at you while you dine, which makes me feel very uncomfortable. They will only look away when I stared back.

AMBIENCE
I love the chillax ambience in this restaurant. Nice music, good food, classy-like-a royal palace! As I sit back and relax while indulging in the afternoon tea, my body seems rooted to the seat and it cant seems to leave the place....

A great dining experience - this is how I would describe my experience at Lawry. Not only is the service good, the food is delicious. Though I ordered the California Cut (as shown in the 2nd picture), which is supposed to be meant for small eaters, I find that the serving is quite substantial as salad and yorkshire pudding are served prior to the main course. I love the yorkshire pudding, it taste really good and goes very well with the beef. Yumz!

Lawry’s spinning salad is quite entertaining. The waitress who is dressed in a fancy costume would prepare the salad in front of you.

I feel that the salad was average, but found it thoughtful that the salad fork was chilled.The restaurant has their own seasoning for their salad

Had Kurobuta baby back ribs which was BBQ ribs, served with creamy coleslaw and fries

Meat is very tender and soft.It is expensive to dine here (app $70 and above per pax), so I would not return unless there is a promotion, which is usually a buy 1 get 1 free main course promotion with selected credit cards.

If you are a fan of rib steak, the rib steaks from Lawry's will certainly be able to satisfy your taste buds. My favourite choice will be their rib steak with pepper sauce. The rib steak is very tender and juicy and really like the spicy flavour from the ideal portion of pepper used in their gravy. The slice may not be that generous, but the quality of it is definitely great!

If you are a fan of ribs and would not mind to pay quite high amount for it, you should definitely try the prime ribs here. The rib is really thick and the portion is quite generous. Usually I would ask the chef to have my rib to be fully well done and this does not affect the taste as well as the texture of it at all. The meat still remain its juicyness and is still as tender to comparing those which are medium well done. The mashed potato is really smooth and like that black pepper gravy topped on it which is abit spicy and the pepper flavour is really fragrant. The service here is quite tip top, which may be the main reason for the high price on their foods here.

I was invited to dinner at Lawry's on a weekday.

Though slightly lesser in portion, Lawry's makes up its value on the price. At $87.00++, I ordered a Lawry's Cut steak (285g) Set; it’s an enhancer hard to resists!

The Prime Rib was much tender than I worried. The fat almost melts in your mouth. It is not chewy and rubbery that you have to cast aside like many rib eyes or prime rib. This is amazing. My friend who had his steak 'the rarest possible' had similar thought. On top of that, the taste of the cattle was sublime. Having said that, I like the temperature on my rib eye steak done Middle. Slightly lukewarm.

Dessert was okay in our opinion. It was something we could have without. Same for the coffee. I guess we were overwhelmed with the price and we just went ahead with everything our eyes saw! the mushroon soup is not fantastic.

One thing to note: They have a weird compilation of music!

Had dinner at Lawry’s with my family. We tried the Prime Rib Dinner which is inclusive of the Famous Original Spinning Bowl Salad, Yorkshire Pudding and Idaho Mashed Potatoes. It was good! The ribs was so tender and savory and the portion was quite big too. Unlike some others which has noticable fats on the ribs, Lawry’s ribs is lean yet smooth and it is simply delicious.

Read about the afternoon indulgence promotion at Lawrys and hence, decide to organise a meet-up session with my pals at Lawrys. For those who are not aware, Lawry has an afternoon indulgence menu from 2.30pm to 5.30pm which is worth checking out as you can select one savoury item and one sweet item at the price of only $15 (which also include a coffee or tea).

My choice for the savoury item: Smoked Salmon Cream Cheese in Puff.
In general, the puff tasted good. However, I can't taste the smoked salmon so was slightly disappointed. Will choose another item for my next visit.

My choice for the sweet item: Raspberry Macaroon with Haagen Dazs Ice-Cream
This is definitely a good choice. The macaroon is simply fantastic! Needless to say, the Haagen Dazs Ice-Cream is yummy too.

i went to lawry’s with my husband for some nice prime rib. Most people often go there order the ribs only. Yup we did that as well. Their ribs are to die for, we both ordered their lawry’s prime ribs each. It was so delicious. I don’t like my meat about medium rare where you still can see the redness. This stage of the meat really melts in your mouth. On top of the ribs, we ordered their grilled mushroom. It is one thing that we must order everytime we are there as these mushroom cooked beautifully. They are still very crunchy, I love the mixed of the different mushrooms. It is really very delicious! not to mention lawry's have one for one so it is very worth it!

i have been feeling very guilty after eating so much food lately, so when we had an outing to lawry’s, I opted to eat salad. I kind of regret it now as I am writing this review. The steak there was absolutely delicious, I tried one bite’s of my friend’s. it simply melts in your mouth. My salad was quite good too, the dressing is delicious and the vegetables are very fresh, they have the crunch!

i have fallen in love with lawry's prime rib. ever since my father brought us there, i can't help but go there to settle my craving for red meat. i ordered the lawry's cut. the meat is so tender and juicy, it simply melts in your mouth. it is served together with mashed potato. An ideal combination. totally heavenly! just look at the juicy slab of meat. totally mouth watering...

Craving for a luxury meal with your loves one? Lawry's ThePrime Rib restaurant definitely is the best choice! You will be pamper with their quality service and at the same time enjoy the quality foods specially prepared by their chefs. Love their Lawry's Famous Prime Rib as is thick, really juicy and tender. Goes along very well with a glass of white or red wine. Two thumbs up! My verdict: 7.5/10

This is one of the favourite restaurant that my family will go for any special occasion. We love the environment and service of the place. And not forgetting to mention the prime rib. Most of the time,my husband will order the lawry's cut and I will go for the english cut. It is the thinner version and easier to chew for ladies. The dish will come with the special sauce which matches very well with the beef and the pudding. They also serve kids menu at a reasonable price and my little girl love their fish and chip. For those who find it too expensive, you can make use of the one for one deal for POSB card. ( valid till end of the year )
