Go crazy at these buzzing bistros doing massive tomahawks
Beef just tastes better when your steak weighs 1.5kg. That’s a fact.

The steakhouse goes for a solemnly-lit mood thanks to chandeliers draped in dark fabrics, violet leather- and velvet-upholstered armchairs and paneled walls. Book a private room (of 6-10 people) for additional views overlooking Langsuan. The brief menu is really focused on beef, all of which has a marbling score of 4-5. The main attraction is the grainfed Australian beef, namely cuts of Sher wagyu (from B1,800/200g tenderloin), Jack’s Creek black angus (from B1,600/250g rib eye) and Stranbroke Cattle (from B1,800/300g T-bone). Don’t miss the Stranbroke’s grain-fed tomahawk (B4,200/1kg).

Taking over a stately old home on Sathorn’s tiny Soi Goethe, this Italian restaurant has well-heeled crowds going gaga for its low-key vibe, wine list that’s arguably the best in town, and polished yet rustic dishes. Expertly seasoned, the tomahawk (B3,900/1.5kg) is everything you want in grilled meat. Complete the meal with some wines from their extra long wine list, sold at some of the most reasonable prices in Bangkok.

The proper sit-down spin-off of Bangkok’s favorite burger truck, Daniel Thaiger, not only serves some darn great handfuls (don’t miss the Mediterranean Lamb burger, B420). The real highlight looms as the tomahawk steak (B250/100g, pre-order only), from which the restaurant takes its name (seau rong hai, or crying tiger beef): a juicy slab of Australian grilled beef served with spicy jim jaew sauce. This no-frills signature dish is also available as lamb (B580) or pork chop (B420).

The hidden restaurant-slash-gallery on Soi Convent continues to draw big crowds even 10 years after its opening. Though not widely known for steaks, this regular on the Top Tables and Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants lists serves up some very good grilled items on the menu. In particular, the Australian wagyu tomahawk (B4,600) comes perfectly grilled and seasoned, served with grilled asparagus and potato chips.

Set in a beautiful old villa on Rama 4 Road, this Italian grill restaurant stores some of the best beefs in Europe here, with names like Spanish Rubia Gallega, French Limousin and Italian Chianina. From the dining room, you can look through a window to see chefs Luca Appino and Nelson Amorim firing up the wood-fire grill and cook your slabs of meat. Their Australian wagyu tomahawk with marbling score of 5 is yours at B450/100g.

We all know Peppina for its great pizza, made in the proper Neapolitan way (it’s even certified by the Associazione Vera Pizza Napoletana). The fluffy and flavorful crusts with fresh toppings have bee talk of the town for a few years now. But the grilled meats here are also a must-try. The tomahawk (about B3,200 for 1.2kg) is one of the best sharing steaks we’ve had in Bangkok for anywhere near this price.
