Bar and grill. Steakhouse. Call it what you like. It is refreshingly styled; no cheesy American clutter covering the walls. Safari inspired; a tribute to the owners homeland rather than a ploy to cover just another steakhouse. This is by far superior. Bring your appetite. The meals are very large. Did not see one plate I would consider small or medium. The feminist in me scoffed at the 'ladies steak'. Prompting me to consider ordering the largest steak possible to attempt renaming it the ladies steak. Boy I can eat but then remembered I'm not a lady. I shared the onion rings with my mum. Not the perfect rings I expected. Instead very crispy, tangled brown morsels with a subtle spice. Beware the gassy aftermath! We both ordered the 300g steak and ribs (pork) combo. The ribs were short on meat in my opinion but still delicious. My steak was cooked perfectly medium as requested. Served with your choice of one side and sauce. We chose salad, chips to share with mushroom and cheese sauces. Brought to our table by the owner Elliot. Nice touch. I'd say a tad expensive but the food, service and styling amount to being worth it.

Yiiirrhar! In the heart of beef eating country (Tamworth NSW) is this epicentre of all things MEAT - the Safari Club. This place came recommended via some locals so we decided to check it out..... The theming is african safari- but don't be fooled this is just another flavour of a regular steak house! OK- there needs to be a disclaimer with every advert for this place- you need to be able to consume a whole cow in one sitting if you're planning to have a meal here (My weak city-slicking stomach couldn't cope with the quantity). But what this place has in quantity it also has in quality! My rib eye was a perfect slab of meat- that I was only JUST able to finish. This place was also busy given it was a wednesday night! Don't expect a fine dining experience- but if you're after a great piece of meat this is the BEST there is in Tamworth! Slap you're laughing gear round that!

You know you're in cattle country when the gauntlet is thrown down!

The food is delicious. I got the "ladies fillet" with monkey gland sauce (don't be put off by the name). It comes with very yummy onion rings. So that's the positive. Now for the negatives. The place was almost empty which seems odd for a Friday night. It is completely devoid of atmosphere. The African decor is lost by the white tiles, bright lights, white walls and 90s pop tunes playing quietly in the background (nothing takes me to the African plains like a bit of Bryan Adams!). This would all be fixed by painting the walls, dimming the lights and turning up the music (and switching it to some African beats). I'm guessing the owner (who I assume is South African) probably lives in the kitchen and is responsible for the delicious food. Unfortunately his staff are pretty hopeless. There were about 5 female staff hanging around the bar chatting while we had dirty plates on our table. The bar staff had never heard of a whisky sour so don't bother ordering anything other than a beer or house wine (the liquor bottles are clearly just for show). It's a shame the service and atmosphere are so lacking as it distracts from the great food.

A steak house with an African cover... Apart from that the food was amazing, juicy and perfectly cooked steaks.... Massive meal size and great hostess... Definately coming back, but you have to book as it gets busy...

Best place in town if you are looking for a big juicy steak, Pork Ribs and the worlds best sauce. Elliot is a magician in the kitchen

Definitely a meat lovers paradise ! Entrees are mains size. Mains are ... well lets just say don't come unless you are starving. Liked the deer head on the wall watching me eat its cousin.

Best ribs ever! Even the chef is that proud of them that he personally serves them to you. PS - skip breakfast and lunch to do them justice!
