Our pick of the city's top steakhouses that offer the juiciest cuts of beef

There's something about sinking your teeth into a well-cooked steak that unlocks something primal in all of us. Of course, how well a steak should be cooked is also up for debate, but let's save that discussion for another time. After all, there are many other components that can affect a steak and how much we enjoy it. From the dry-ageing technique to the butter used to baste it—and we haven't even got to the side dishes that pair best.

For connoisseurs who know their fillets from their florentines, or those simply looking for a good hunk of beef, here are the best places to go for steak in Hong Kong.

The Steak House is said to be the first restaurant in Hong Kong to feature a charcoal grill since it opened in the 80s—the result of which has garnered a very loyal following. Now, after its renovations within the Regent hotel, The Steak House is back to its former glory with a modern steakhouse experience. Steak highlights come from renowned farms such as El Capricho in Spain and Mayura Station in Australia, enhanced by the fine selection of seafood and Salad Bar which features premium crudités, cheeses, cold cuts and fresh salads.

Associazione Chianti

As difficult as it is for a non-Italian to pronounce Associazione Chianti, this Tuscan trattoria is all about simple food done well. The menu features grass-fed and grain-finished USDA Black Angus steaks that have been dry-aged in-house for 12 to 14 days and seasoned with a dry rub of aromatics. The Bistecca alla Fiorentina, a 1kg T-bone steak, is thick-cut and best served medium rare. The pasta here is also a must-try with pici, a hand-rolled pasta with cavolo nero, pistachio and pecorino, coming in hot and highly recommended.
