Perfectly cooked Steak & Poorly Cooked Chicken My wife and her sister opted for the chicken, without exaggerating eating a thong/sandal wouldโve been easierโฆ itโs such a shame as the steaks and sides were perfect.. I asked the Irish fellow (Reece I think) and stated they are really dry he said sorry but thatโs how they come they are cooked on the grill?? My shock I said what do you mean. He said he thinks they will come out exactly the same if he replaced them. Well respectfully Nandoโs cook chicken on a grill and itโs juicy so whatโs happening here? He offered to replace with another meal but we wanted chicken and he made it clear that a replacement would be the same. This really left a sour taste in his response. I then spoke to our waiter (Campbell) who was clearly trying to do his best and the service from him throughout the evening was great. I told him what had happened and he went away to try rectify. The end result was the chickens were taken off the bill at the end of the evening, although we didnโt pay for them I considered squires loft to be of a much higher standard and used on special occasions, there was 9 of us and the 2 of most important people from the 9 didnโt enjoy their meal. Let me reiterate if you want a steak they do it well but avoid the chicken. If you pay squires loft prices you EXPECT quality and high end service.
The steak was very well cooked just as I ordered it Med / rare. I had a 300grm scotch fillet with potato as a side around $56. It was very nice. The others on the table had Chicken breast, one with potatoes and two with chips. There was a mix of two of the breasts were moist and two were very dry. The large side of salad feed all 4 of us. The sides of chips were so hot and crunchy with nice soft potato inside. This is my option and I can't get my head around paying over $100 for a steak.
From the moment we entered we were greeted with amazing service from Ross in front of house, who showed us our table. Campbell was our waiter for the evening, who made us feel like family from the moment he spoke. Steaks cooked to perfection. Char grilled vegetables were mouthwatering. Can not fault anything. Will definitely be back!
The most amazing steaks I have ever had. Serving on hot plates to keep the meat warm throughout the evening is genius!! Servers are so warm and welcoming it makes the atmosphere truly divine, especially Vanessa! Service was fast considering how busy the venue was, and overall was so worth the visit, and will definitely come back again!!
This was our second visit to Squires Loft Geelong, and it was every bit as fantastic as the first. We were celebrating our babymoon, and the experience did not disappoint. The staff were warm and welcoming, the food was absolutely delicious, and the atmosphere was clean, inviting, and perfect for a specialย nightย out.
