RSSChateaubriand: a steak to celebrate

Our chateaubriand is a steak to share on a special occasion: like an anniversary, an engagement, a birthday or even a promotion. Or just because someone you know deserves to be spoilt.

Book a table for two

Like all our steaks the chateaubriand is sourced from specially selected West Country farms, matured for 28 days and prepared exactly to your taste by chefs who appreciate what they're cooking.

It's a wonderful cut of beef from the centre of the fillet, named after the demanding French diplomat for whom it was created. Perhaps unfairly, Vicomte François-René de Chateaubriand is remembered, rather than his personal chef who had the good idea.

Only the finest British beef

This noble, flavoursome and tender steak is a dish that deserves - and gets - our respect. Like all our beef it's sourced from specially selected West Country farms, matured for 28 days and prepared exactly to your taste by chefs who appreciate what they're cooking. And here at Miller & Carter steakhouse in Chelmsford you'll find luxurious accompaniments to complement it. Try the tiger prawn skewer with lobster thermidor for a sumptuous twist on surf and turf.

Choosing a worthy wine

We'd suggest our Rothschild Claret, with its ripe, red berry notes. Or for a real treat, try our Cloudy Bay Pinot Noir - it's silky smooth on the palate and has that strawberry flavour beloved of Pinot Noir fans. But you may have a better idea: there are plenty more to choose from on our extensive wine list.

Reserve your best steak

The chateaubriand is a steak to experience - indeed an occasion in itself which needs no further excuse. So why not book your table here and now while the good idea lingers?
