Maria's Steak & Cafe @ Damansara Perdana

This hidden gem is a definitely a great find! The restaurant is actually not on the main ground floor where the foot traffic is but if you are a regular you will definitely have no issue looking for it. For the benefit of the newbies, take the elevator next to Old Town White Coffee to the floor above and you will be able to find it. The ambience of the cafe is really cozy and I reckon is also due to their dim lighting. Hence the photos I have taken does not do justice to the dishes we ate.


The steaks here are awesome and for a family run steak joint like this, they have many variety of cuts from Japanese Kobe to Australian Wagyus. We ordered a variety of their signatures. To start of as our version of appetizers we shared a plate of lamb cutlets and a rib-eye fillet! (Appetizers for kings... Haha).

NZ Lamb cutlets - very tender and made just right! Maybe coz it's from NZ that's probably why it tasted so great since the country's best exports are their lamb meat! :)

Ribeye - was a little tough for my liking but I guess if you see the other pictures of what we ate for our mains you can understand why.... Haha

Wagyu 5 - I did not managed to capture the zoom in picture to its marbling for you because of the dim lighting but I can assure you this was very tasty indeed. The marbling on it was just nice and but we had the meat done 'medium' due to preference. So it didn't do the meat justice. 


Wagyu 8 - Next up we had their number 8 and boy I tell you this was something you would like the taste of the meat lingering in your mouth before you sleep at night so you can wake up remembering the taste of the meat you had yesterday. Marbling was perfect and you can literally cut it with a butter knife if they forgot to serve you a steak knife. Again the pictures don't do justice but you just have to experience it yourself.  
* I am more of a Japanese wagyu guy but these Australian ones I had could definitely prove to be a heavy contender to the Jap Wagyus for sure. 

Overall my verdict of Maria's steak cafe is definitely a must visit for all steak lovers!. I have wasted a lot of money on expensive steaks and this one definitely going to be my regular joint for my affordable steak fix in the future! :)
