Robin Oaks is a steak house restaurant located on Hulls popular Princes Avenue. At Robin oaks they have established themselves as a prime venue for casual dining and relaxed socialising. As you enter the place you are invited with a rustic, vintage and relaxed atmosphere and its almost like dining in your own living room but with waiter service and great quality food.
The menu offers a wide variety of mouth-watering starters. I had grilled tiger prawns accompanied by a chimichurri sauce and mixed leaves, while my friend tried the pressed belly pork served with sugar snap puree and a pork jus, garnished with crispy onions. They were exquisite. The main course consisted of chicken supreme served on a bed of dauphinoise potatoes with rich chicken jus, bacon savoy cabbage, and sugar snap puree and garnished with crispy carrots, which really thrilled us.
The divine menu also includes a vast array of steaks, from sirloin and rump to filet and gammon steak. However the restaurant also cater for vegetarians, vegans and people who are gluten free. It’s not just a place for steaks.
All the products were fresh and the dishes had the warmth of home-made food. The chef takes great care in selecting the best quality ingredients. The restaurant also caters for all tastes providing a large selection of the best wines of the region, which are pricey but worth sampling.
What a pity that the service does not accompany the high quality of the cooking. You can hardly get a smile out of the waitresses. Thankfully to the owner and host, a middle age charming man is always around willing to exchange some kind words with all his clients.
Despite the high price of the food and the not so attentive waiter’s service, I had a pleasant dining experience with food of the most exquisite flavours. For this reason I highly recommend going to the Robin Oaks Steakhouse.
