I believe the problem with Aston's is that they will only take the meat out of the chiller when you order. Try cooking a chilled steak and you'll know how hard it is to achieve medium-rare. Fire too hot, you'll get charcoal outside and rare inside. Cook slowly, you'll get more consistent doneness but almost certainly end up well-done.

To get the right doneness, you have to start with a steak at near-room temperature. Of course, if you lay out too many steaks at room temperature and don't use them by end of day, it's going to be quite "dang poon" IYKWIM.

Which is why a good steakhouse charges so high for that well-grilled medium-rare steak.

more skill than cooking a sunny side up.

Best steak I've eaten is prob Mortons.

However, best steak house i like most is still Wang Steak. Its a Taiwanese steak house. Several outlets located in Taiwan & China.

Its not just the steak itself but the entire experience. The menus are fix, but you choose the starters, soup, appetizers, sides, deserts. The entire course S$60. Amazing value at a very nice cosy high-end resturant.

Highly recommended if you visiting Taiwan or China. Especially if you are celebrating a special occasion. Best customer service I've ever experience anywhere.

cooking your own IMO is the best way to do it .. u control what u put in there n the quality of the meat ... IMO Aston's serve up pretty ordinary steaks just that it's on the cheap side

went to mortons for the first time in my life for my 29th birthday.

my med-rare cajun ribeye came out tasteless, tough, and dry.. looks more like medium. but i feedback to the manager and they changed it.

told them to do it somewhere between med-rare and rare.

came out better this time.

this place is not bad for steaks also..

For under $30, Jacks Place is pretty decent but the service standards and ambience was not like before, food still as good though.

oh noes.... but this one should be a long-term promo? :(

You want to go or not, let me know the date and I try to make it. Was a long term promo previously and then they took it off for weeks and now back again.

yeah! the same thing happened to me!
But I feel that Ashton's steaks doesn't have that much taste or natural juicy flavour compared to others, but I'm not complaining cuz of the prices xD
Unless anyone else knows of other places that have better and cheap steak.
