Steak Ministry Bar & Grill is yet another successful eatery from Craig Lane and Gerrard Velupillai, this one a New York-style steakhouse that opened in early 2014.

When I first walked in I was surprised at how cosy, but small it seemed to be. After it was pointed out that there was more seating out the back we settled at a large communal table there.
