Came here around 5pm on Tuesday without a booking for their Steak Frites night, but thankfully they still had a high table available for us. The steak and fries were good! We ordered it with the béarnaise sauce which was so tasty; creamy and herby. For the drink, I tried the Gaytime Milk Punch and I love it. To me, it tasted like a sweet cough syrup mixed with a light milkshake 😋 if you like sweet cocktails, please give it a shot! We had the desserts too and they were sooo yummsss. We ordered the Ricotta Cake with cumquat jam, mascarpone cream, and pistachio; a safe choice that you can never go wrong with. We also ordered the Raspberry semifreddo with crispy filo pastry and white chocolate chantilly. If you prefer something flavourful and refreshing, you should try this one instead!! We also had the workers check in on us once in a while to make sure we’re good with everything. They’re all so friendly and welcoming. I would definitely come back and maybe check out the different floors as well (especially the music room 😣😣😣)!!! What a fine dining experience. An incredibly beautiful ambiance; the dimmed lights gave a warm, cosy vibe and the service was spectacular. We grabbed some french martini mocktails (incredible might I say) and some steak, arancini, and fries to share. Everything was of high quality. That steak was truly mind-blowing, probably one of the best I’ve had. I would’ve expected the fries to look less cheap, but nonetheless the sauce and taste was amazing. There was quite a diverse collection, so I’d love to come back and try some more. This place definitely exceeded my expectations. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Her Bar: Where the Steak is $25, and the Service is Priceless (and So is Claudia) I wasn't looking for Her Bar last night, but let's just say destiny (and perhaps a slight case of the munchies) guided me right to its beautifully lit doors. And oh my god, am I glad it did. If you're looking for a sign to go, consider this it: The $25 Steak Night is practically a public service. I'm talking perfectly cooked steak with a fresh salad that felt less like an afterthought and more like a fabulous companion. It was the kind of dinner that makes you think, "Wait, is this flirting with me?" And speaking of fabulous companions... I need to talk about the service, specifically a goddess named Claudia and mostly everyone lol. Seriously, the service was so exceptional it felt less like being waited on and more like being expertly charmed. Claudia was a sheer delight—attentive, witty, and basically the human embodiment of that lovely Italian Prosecco I was sipping. The dessert sampler (hello, Semi-Freddo!) was... okay, but honestly, with service and steak that good, they could have served me a bowl of crunchy leaves and I'd still be singing their praises. The Vibe? It’s the kind of place that makes you feel instantly cooler just by walking in. It’s got a sultry, magnetic energy that makes a casual dinner feel like a date night with yourself. I stumbled in, but I'll be sprinting back. Five stars—for the perfect steak, the bubbly Prosecco, the gorgeous atmosphere, and especially for Claudia. See you soon, Her Bar!

Spent a lovely afternoon with my girl at HerBAR 💕 This 4-storey spot is such a vibe — each level has its own unique style and charm 😍 We had our lunch at the ground floor of HER, and it did not disappoint! Started with freshly baked sourdough and oysters (a must! 🦪), then moved on to a perfect pairing — steak 🥩 and vegetarian pasta 🍝. I’m not vegetarian but oh my… I absolutely loved it 😋 The combo was so good! The ambience? Classy yet relaxed — just the right amount of buzz for a lunch date 💫 Not too quiet, not too busy. Overall, I totally loved it and would 100% come back again 💖

Pros - Server was very warm and they indeed gave us a great seat as per requested. Ambiance very nice, great place to impress guests. Octopus BBQ was good. Fish was alright. Cons - We waited over 30 mins in between appetizers and main course. I don’t know if that’s the normal serving time but it took forever. The green pasta was bland, however quality of pasta good. The arancini balls were undercooked we were gnawing on half cooked rice grains. Too much goat cheese as well it was overpowering the dish. Overall I might not return. Food supersedes ambiance. Otherwise I would only bring guests there for a drink, not to eat.
