Excellent steaks and a standout burger served from a Mercato Mayfair stall with lively ambiance; great quality for the area, but portions run small and service can feel inflexible at peak times.
Why it gets a B+ for overall quality
Beast & Field delivers strong food quality anchored by tender, well-seasoned steaks and signature chimichurri that earn consistent praise. The striking church conversion setting within Mercato Mayfair creates genuine destination appeal. However, inconsistent execution with occasional burnt or tough steaks and modest portions at premium pricing prevent a higher grade—this is a reliable but not exceptional steak experience, best suited for those seeking quality beef in a lively food hall rather than refined steakhouse service.
Restaurant Summary
Set inside Mercato Mayfair’s deconsecrated church, this stall delivers steakhouse hits in a lively food hall. Diners talk about tender steaks with chimichurri and a burger that eats like a steak. One guest summed it up: "Quick line, great flavors, and a stunning room." Expect a bustling communal vibe rather than a quiet sit-down. The cooking skews classic: well-sourced beef, straightforward grilling, and bold seasoning over fancy frills. Bavette with chimichurri and the dry-aged sirloin are crowd-pleasers when cooked spot on, though a few reports of charring or toughness suggest occasional misfires. Portions lean modest; value lands best when you choose the sharing platter or time-limited deals. For families, the menu offers kid-friendly anchors like the burger, chips, and simpler steak cuts. There is no formal kids menu, and seats are first-come in the hall, but many families make it work. If your crew needs quiet or lots of options beyond beef, consider that this is a beef-forward, lively setup.
