Elbert's Steak Room is one of Makati's secret food treasures that is slowly being known to food enthusiasts all over town. Every review and feedback given speaks only of one thing: GOOD STEAK. This really excites me despite the fact that they have quite an expensive menu.
The night of our dinner at Elbert's finally arrived. Finding the restaurant can be a bit tricky. First, you have to locate the building (Sagittarius Building III is located right in front of a Mini Stop along H.V. dela Costa in Salcedo Village). After getting a good parking slot, just ask the friendly guard in front and he will lead you to a narrow staircase where you have to climb all the way up to the 3rd floor (let's just say you really have to work up an appetite!). Finally, you're at the 3rd floor, the next step is to find the entrance to the restaurant. Similar to the tip given to me, just look for a bright red wall - - this, you'll realize is actually the door.
Walking inside Elbert's Steak Room, instantly made me understand why it was called such. The space is very small yet cozy and inviting. There are less than 15 tables (or maybe 10) available so placing a reservation is highly encouraged. The room nearest to the door immediately caught Paul's attention. I was told it was the Gentleman's Cigar Room which actually is the restaurant's smoking corner. Paul liked how the room was decorated which reminds him of The Godfather movie.
Browsing through the menu, we finally decided to share the steak to have more room for the sidings and dessert! Following their lead, we got the USDA Prime Grade Ribeye Steak (Php. 2,200) and added Php. 400 for an additional soup and salad. To complement this, we also got Truffled Mashed Potatoes and Creamed Spinach for our sidings.


Finally, the highlight of that evening's meal was served. Presented in a clean white platter, I took a short moment to smell and look closely at the delicious looking thick slice of steak in front of me. "This is perfect", I thought to myself.


Everyone ate their dinner in silence, it's as if no one dared to speak loudly to avoid disrupting the wonderful steak experience that we were all enjoying. Needless to say, dinner at Elbert's gave us a glimpse of what it will be like in Steak Heaven.
