What wonderful food we all had. The service was brilliant, the staff were helpful and attentive. We were a surprise party of 9 celebrating a birthday and pre ordered our food. Everything was very well organised and the correspondence before the event was professional and thoughtful. We all had the most delicious meals both steak and roast dinners. (Some of us will be back for a roast as had a bit of FOMO, even though the steak was really good too). Thank you to the 16 Steakhouse team and apologies to any of the other guests who we may have disturbed as we were quite a loud table of 9.

Have been here a number of times, as my friends were having starters, I did not feel bad for choosing 3 veggie friendly sides as my main, which were delicious, and I took home a doggy bag. Service is always good and friendly. We sat alongside the serving hatch which is a tad bright for diners, but that did not spoil the evening, which was lovely.

Had been recommended to visit by a family member - a lovely atmosphere, staff very professional, friendly and attentive. The food was amazing too - highly recommend the burgers as the option to choose your toppings makes it feel unique. Lovely experience from start to finish, will definitely be returning, thanks for a great time :)

This was organised by my local U3A and a group of 20 or so of us gathered for our monthly dining evening, which visits venues all over East Suffolk.
There was a bit of a hiatus when more of us turned up than they had prepared for which meant them squeezing in everyone into a far too small a space. Quite why they didn't move an isolated couple at the end of our long table, I have no idea, but it must have been pretty unpleasant for the couple and horribly squished for us.
Having pre-ordered our meals, apart from the unexpected arrivals, there was no apology for the long delay of nearly an hour before our, mainly burger, meals arrived. The burgers are normally £16.25, but most of us took advantage of the Thursday '2 for £22' offer, which worked out at £11 each, including trimmings, sauce and skin-on fries.
I watched the kitchen assemble our meals on a high counter, which was such a slow process, my food, apart from the chips, was tepid when it eventually arrived. Everyone found the char-grilled sweetcorn tough and difficult to eat.
Had I not been in a group, the food would have been sent back. It was not satisfactory for a venue whose website claims 'takes pride in delivering an exceptional dining experience'. This was distinctly average, at best.
The burger itself was clearly of good quality, ditto the toasted brioche bun. One of our group sitting near me opted for the grilled lamb salad which, at £20.45, was so enormous, a huge doggie bag was willingly wrapped up.
Several folk opted for desserts including the 'Black Forest brownie sundae (spelt Forrest on the menu) at £9.95 and a 'Mini cheese and port' (£7.75) which was most certainly a very small fromage indeed. Except it was cubes of Black Bomber and Suffolk Blue.
This venue is geared up for large wedding parties, so why they faffed about so long for a group of just 20 unimpressed me greatly. I will not be rushing back.

Beautiful restaurant. We stopped on our way through Ipswich and the staff were so friendly and welcoming. The food was fantastic, I had the mushroom stuffed chicken and it was one of the best meals I have ever eaten and it looked amazing too. Highly recommend 16 Steakhouse, I'd visit again!

Lovely place for beefsteak in Ipswich. No wonder why this place gets many good reviews.
