Reviews Summary
Steaktrain offers a unique dining experience within a vintage train car setting, consistently praised for its exceptionally delicious steaks and generous, flavorful side dishes. Reviewers highlight the tender meat, perfect grilling, and accommodating service, making it a highly recommended spot for steak lovers. While most experiences are overwhelmingly positive, some have noted minor issues with specific side dishes like gnocchi.
"I had high expectations visiting this steakhouse, which is already famous for its steaks, and I was very satisfied. I have often been disappointed by other well-known restaurants I was excited to try, but this place provided me with satisfaction instead of disappointment. Not only was the steak delicious, but the side dishes that accompanied it were also very tasty.
The interior was inspired by trains, as suggested by the restaurant's name, creating an atmosphere reminiscent of the Orient Express. The staff was friendly and courteous, and we visited for dinner on a weekend at 5 PM and left at 7 PM; it wasn't overly crowded, allowing us to enjoy our meal in a comfortable and relaxed environment.
I appreciated being able to freely choose from two types of sauces and two types of side dishes that came with the steak, and the portions were very generous, leaving us very full after our meal. I especially recommend the 'Kartoffelstampf mit Trüffelöl' and 'Süßkartoffelpommes.'
( Reference: The location is very convenient for public transportation, making it easy to visit without a car. There is also a staircase installed for access from the lobby of the 'Seaside Park Hotel,' which adds to the convenience.)"

"Nice to sit in a restaurant that looks like a train. Good quality meat and a wide choice of side dishes. Service is efficient and friendly. Making a reservation is recommended."

"Very interesting train car theme, but more interesting than that was the food. My god the steaks were heavenly. For an appetizer we got the salmon tatar and for entrees we got the tomahawk, fillet, and swordfish. Service was friendly and timely. They were very accommodating when they found we were English speaking as well (English menus and speaking in English)
The only thing my friends found that was maybe not up to the standard that everything else was, was the gnocchi side they both got, the mushrooms, onion rings, and fries were all excellent sides."
