BRAD'S GRILL

BEST FOR A peppery piece of meat in a relaxed atmosphere. FOOD Brad’s Grill was established over three decades ago, and is now housed in an intimate neighbourhood in the heart of the southern suburbs. Only open at night, it feels like a village secret, but its founder, Brad Steele, isn't shy to let you in on it. To start, Brad’s buffalo chicken wings are deliciously spicy. The 200g skinny steak with a side salad is a tempting order, but the reasonably priced 300g rump or sirloin is a carnivore’s dream. Bread-and-butter pudding, apple crumble, cheesecake and pecan nut pie are but some of the decadent desserts. DRINKS Unfussy patrons will be happy to pair a beer with their favourite steak; however, there's also an adequate assortment of wines. SERVICE Warm and welcoming. AMBIENCE Expect brown paper-clad tables mostly filled with large groups of friends. (TMS)
