The other day, my colleagues and I dined at Astons Prime located at CentrePoint. I wasn't really enthusiastic about it after reading their numerous bad reviews. People complained about their service and food quality. But since everyone wanted to give it a go, I went ahead to give them a second chance.The service wasn't that bad, probably because it was pretty empty when we arrived. The food also was served after a reasonable waiting time. To be truthful, the steak wasn't that fantastic. The accompanying sauce (mushroom) was quite normal - nothing exceptional. It can't be compared to the one at Hog's Breath or Outback Steakhouse, and for the price of $20.90 (rib-eye) I'd rather pay a little more for better quality elsewhere. I have to admit some of their sides were pretty well done, e.g. onion rings and potato wedges. My chosen sides were buttered mushrooms and cheesy potato skins. I was pretty happy with their generous amount of cheese on the skin but the mushrooms were rather tasteless. It felt more like they were soaked in water than butter.
The pork chop looked alright but was charged at a hefty price of $29.90 (if I didn't remember wrongly). It seems a bit overpriced. The steaks are priced more reasonably... but only if their quality improves, else I guess it isn't worth to return for a second time.
