Welcome to Buona Vista. Looking for Cheap & Good places?

comes w a mini burrito/bowl, mini fries and soft drink! didn’t expect it to be filling even tho everyt’s small

It used to be good. My ribeye was served cold, Brussels sprout was so undercook it’s almost raw.

WOW. Serving was amazing the beef was sooooo thick and big but then of course its 350g HAHHA but werf!!!! Texture is slightly more similar to chicken breast and less fatty compared to the ribeye

Rating: 7.8/10

Verdict: nuubbbaaad

Tried the NZ ribeye (200g) with mac and cheese & onion ring sides

Tbh, the ribeye was alot fattier than I expected and preferred but I guess the fats gave it flavour. Mac and cheese was nice!!!! And generous serving while onion rings are just onion rings

Rating: 7/10

Verdict: for affordable steak this place does its job!

NZ RIBEYE STEAK (200G) - $20++
Steak was pretty good and worth for the price! Ordered in medium well, felt like it was still a bit tough. could opt for medium if you prefer your steak not as tough!

Tender chicken meat with crispy skin and a lovely sauce... enjoyed this meal. Particularly liked the mac&cheese which was of a nice portion size and the cheese wasn’t too thick - it didn’t get jelak or boring at all.

Overall a very satisfying $10.50 meal.

Pork was badly done. Asked for a medium but was slightly over grilled hence a little tough and dry.

Upsized their usual pork ribeye steak and it came with additional 2 pork steak. Pork was slightly over grilled hence a little tough and dry. The sides were good as usual.

Tender grilled chicken with parmesan cheese asparagus as sides.
The ginger was subtle to no taste but the honey was really good. This was a good mixed of sweet and savoury due to the slightly charred taste.

I ordered the Lemon pepper chicken ($10.50) with 2 complementary sides. The broccoli and sauteed brussels are always my to-go sides😅😊 ahahaha because the portion is big and i love vegetables!! Other sides i recommend are the spinach sesame salad and cinnamon pumpkin!! Shall try the baked olive rice next time when i want carbs~

I found that the chicken didnt had any lemon nor pepper flavour and was a tad salty for my liking. Shall not order the chicken from isteaks anymore... quite disappointing. Hahaha i think their salmon is really nice because they cooked till medium well (the salmon remains soft and moist) and their steaks are really affordable. I also love their pork ribeye because the sauce is flavourful and the meat isnt too dry or hard.

Nonetheless, this is my favourite to go place for western food because i find it really affordable (prices are inclusive of gst and there isnt service charge). Furthermore, there are a plethora of sides to choose from such as cheesy cauliflower, garlic butter eggplant and even mac&cheese which is one of their popular sides.

Worth it: 4/5
Taste: 3.75/5 (because it really depends on what you order so i cant really give it a 4 since not every dish is nice)
Ratings: 7.75/10 (the dishes there are either a hit or a miss but for the price point and affordability i would really recommend it!! Their quality is WAY BETTER than astons. Astons was my childhood western meal because it used to be very cheap and affordable to us students...but their prices keep increasing and standard keep dropping☻) haha

No go
Can go
Must go😊

Winding up the weekend with this great value piece of striploin served alongside sautéed Brussels and cinnamon pumpkin.

Every grill specialties comes with 2 complements. Peas are no longer available but noticed some interesting newly added ones like garlic butter eggplant, Parmesan asparagus, apple & nut salad.
